“ Timing starts after initial page observation”

Isn’t this the part that takes most time?

I use Fireworks for a production app. Much lower volumes though. My only gripe is their serverless offering for reranking has only 1 model which is Qwen 8b and it's quite expensive.

i think it's buggy. i keep getting "compacting conversation" even though i restarted the cli. and i'm for sure not using 5 times more.

Honest question from someone with no hardware knowledge:

How technically possible and commercially feasible would it be to make these huge lenses and camera components removable? For example, imagine if Apple made a phone with no built-in camera, where the camera is instead a separate magnetic component that you attach to the phone only when you want to use it.

Same here.

I tested gemini embeddings api for 1 to 5,000ish social media comments. It filled up the quota almost immediately.

Since then, I’m just using qwen embeddings locally. Open source, free and relatively comparable.

You don’t need an iphone or an app for this.

Shameless plug: I co-own https://gigb.ee , which allows you to create free or paid events, invite people to the event via link, let them get/buy tickets, join waiting list, and you can track your attendee list, check-in and more.

Events can be public (also shown on our landing page) or private (only shown on your own Gigbee page).

For free events, it’s free. For paid events, you only pay per sold ticket (no monthly or upfront fee etc).

Works on any device since it’s a webapp.

Hey guys,

Congratulations with the launch.

I’m an ex-tcf banker turned software developer (mainly frontend). I’ve worked 10 years in trade finance world as a relationship manager and credit analyst and i know from first hand how pain in the ass it is to deal with the archaic methods in the tcf world.

I’m keen on learning if you already have ideas around improving the financing side of things. In the end, finance is big part of the commodity business. Also it would be a huge benefit if you can improve the processes around fraud prevention. Not an easy task and not necessarily a tech problem, but definitely a historically huge problem in commodity trade.

Also any ideas around making this more like an open api where banks, warehouses, logistics companies and traders can integrate and stay in sync with each other?

Just wanted to mention these few big pain points from my experience.

I hope your platform can address some of these issues.

Best of luck

If you’re into that stuff and also like animes, recently I finished watching the “Pantheon” series and it has an even more interesting and somewhat more realistic plot compared to Matrix and super scary and exciting at the same time.

Hey peeps.

Sorry for hijacking the topic. I also live in the Netherlands and my backyard perfecty faces south, which means i get huge sunlight on that side of the house. But because my house has a glass-roofed extension on the ground floor, all solar companies i spoke say they can’t install panels on the roof because they can’t build scaffold on that side.

Here’s an image to explain a bit better. [image](https://imgur.com/a/WE1Qojf) So the red area is the glass-roofed extension on the ground floor. And blue area is the space on the roof that solar panels should be placed. Green is a dormer (which they said they can’t also put panels on top)

I was wondering any dutchies might know a solution/advice a company about this? Also is there any portable panels that i can put on top of the glass extension?

Thanks

My sister, now 27, was diagnosed with psychosis about 10 years ago. Her real social life was plummeting and i couldn’t notice it since i was living away. But apprently she was obsessed with social media, particularly twitter back then. At one point, she came to our parents saying thay “people put cameras at home and they are watching her”. So, she totally lost it. Immediately diagnosed and started using heavy medication. She totally lost touch with real life and human interaction. She still wouldn’t talk for hours if you sit in the same room. Still obsessed with social media. She has 20k followers on instagram (not sure how much of it is real though). And if you look at her instagram profile, it ‘S totaly a different person. Fancy dresses, fancy restaurants, bars etc. but in real life, she’s a total loser with no single friend. Doctor says it’s only medication that can help. I don’t believe it. I believe she has to also get therapy sessions. But my family doesn’t believe it. They are old , too tired to deal with this. Probably they also need therapy. And i do as well. But living abroad, with my wife and little daughter, i can’t really influence these decisions. So all i do is being sad. A teenager’s life was totally ruined because of this. Maybe it’s not entirely social media’s fault but i’m sure it plays a big role. Just a little advice, if you see your kid or sibling being isolated, untidy and spend more and more time on social media, please try to stop it before it gets out of control. Just my 2 cents.

Personal note: My sister (now 26 yo) was diagnosed with psychosis about 6 years ago and I attribute it to her extensive use of social media. I can’t prove it but I’m sure that social media either created or triggered her psychosis. Today she’s still on drugs.

I would appreciate companies like fb to work more on the effects of social media on society and people’s psychology rather than creating fake worlds so that people get hooked more on it. But of course corporates only care about profit. Heck, I would still appreciate them if they tried to create a competitor to spacex or blue origin. Of course they are also commercial organizations but least there’s some side effect of space exploration that would benefit humankind in the future. But metaverse looks like just another social media platform packaged differently. I don’t see it helping humanity. And fb at this size should do more to help society rather than trying to plug everyone to matrix.

so true! i hate the touchbar. if i would have to change my laptop today, i'd buy air just because i hate the touchbar.

spotify early this year pulled out of all dj apps. as a user, i hate spotify for this. why wouldn't you let me dj with the music? it's not like i'm david gueatta, playing to 5000 people.

i'm a 39y old ex-banker (>15y in banking). finished a bootcamp in 2018. now working for a startup as a frontend developer for the last year. i'm not saying i'm a success story. but if i was able to come this far, i'm sure you'll do much much more better than me. i actually envy you :-) good luck and have fun
