I think openAI and Anthropic are getting ready to launch their next generation of models (Claude 5 and GPT 6), which will quickly make us hit our rate-limits and we'll start entering a world where most people will start to have/want to pay for additional tokens.

We're all just getting too used to having great models for a fraction of the the value they give us.

While this is really concerning, it feels like a small new category of errors to check for. The article mentions an increase of 220% of the amount of submissions. That's incredible news for science, probably lots of honest scientists able to produce more work and eventually lead to more science being done.

Agreed, Sentry, Posthog, and many more are all doing the exact same thing now, I'd be surprised if this was a good deal for Langfuse. I personally migrated away from it to use Sentry, their software was honestly not that great.

Exactly the same feeling here, it's such a strange thing to promise a kid they are accepted into a program, but it starts in like 4 years.

As if all of your education (and probably side-projects, life decisions) is meant to lead to YC.

Great metaphor, exactly how it feels to me too!

The blinking thing after the author's name in the sidebar is terribly distracting, why make it impossible to scroll past it, or just not have this infinitely running animation? Great article otherwise.

This is such an insanely good and important idea, that it feels inevitable that we'll eventually do it, probably in the next decades/centuries.

Probably one of the hardest new laws we'll ever have to implement.

Modern Gaming feels like a chore compared to older games. It isn't just nostalgia. Most games are designed to waste your time for maximum player engagement. Modern Gaming is boring by design.

New comment by floriferous in "Time to Upgrade Your Monitor"

floriferous — Thu, 18 Jun 2020 20:42:33 +0000

I just can’t function optimally without 3 monitors:

1 for my full screen IDE: 3 files side by side, multiple terminals

1 with 2 browser windows: my product (a web app), and another with specs, stack overflow, google

And my macbook’s screen with slack or email.

Whenever I have 2 monitors or less, I find myself switching windows around all the time! With 3 I just move my eyes and mouse.

floriferous — Sun, 05 Apr 2020 10:23:02 +0000

I have the exact same experience, switched to airpods for my phone, and bose for my computer.

Their Bluetooth setup is abysmal ! Hate using these QC 35 for that reason.

How scammy is this?!

New comment by floriferous in "The Pentagon is battling the clock to fix serious, unreported F-35 problems"

floriferous — Thu, 13 Jun 2019 07:03:02 +0000

Why do so many people on hackernews appear to really know their stuff when it comes to aeronautics?

Between the F-35, the ethiopian crash, and plenty other related topics, I’m amazed at the quantity and quality of the comments.

I would expect this topic to be kind of niche, and not attract >100 comments everytime!

Just like facebook or google can block your account and prevent you from accessing all those logins you linked ever again.

So you better log in with your own email, but of the 3, I’d rather pick Apple as the lesser evil!

Can someone explain what /8s /16s etc. are? Or a link to a good explainer?

I actually created an account on Medium only in the hopes of finding an option to disable this horrible feature, needless to say I was disappointed!
