The first quote is not even a quote from Aristotle but from Will Durant’s book, The Story of Philosophy (1926)

This is the first thing I thought too, the name confused me with the company and brand Vocera, I thought it was from them.

You can do this yourself with Shortcuts app.
Create a timer function to run a shutdown on a time interval you order. Change shutdown to "restart".

Re:Ask HN: Can Devin genuinely replace the roles of developers?
on Tuesday April 30, 2024 @05:21AM (#40208864)
I have preview access to devin, and I can tell you that it's the real deal.
It's making PRs to our codebase daily, and acts as a junior engineer.
It frees us up from doing menial tasks and is a great help for stuff like that.
It's not perfect, but it's a glimpse of the future that definitely needs to be noticed.

If it's only compliance then, why not go with the other vendors like Vanta etc?

Re:The killer app of Gemini Pro 1.5 is video
on Wednesday February 21, 2024 @03:20PM (#39458947)
The real frustrating thing about this is how Gemini 1.5 is a marketing ploy only.
Not even 1.0 Ultra is available in the GCP API. only for their "allowlist" clients.

LlamaParse looks nice. Is there way to return page numbers also with the markdown? This is important for our use case.

Does anyone actually have access to Ultra yet? It's a lame blog post where it says "it's available!" but the fine print says "by whitelist".
Ok, whatever that means.
OpenAI at least releases it all at once, to everyone.

This also jumped out at me. It also seems that they are selectively choosing different promoting strategies too, one lists "CoT@32".
Makes it seem like they really needed to get creative to have it beat GPT4. Not a good sign imho
