Where is this 10x number coming from?

Is the site broken for me, or is there literally zero information on what this is besides the title of this HN post? I’ve never seen a waitlist for such little information

This is incredible. Interactive demos like this make mathematics 10x more accessible

This is really cool. In the demo, how do they just yank the chip off the board? I'd have assumed it would be somehow soldered on or something.

This is why I like buying in a physical store. I also think the only solution to this practice is really just to avoid buying as much as possible. I never get food delivery and only get uber to go to and from the mechanic. Ditto for the medical system, I got charged $400 for a strep throat test. I’ll just stay home until I feel better

I think the court of public opinion also matters greatly to be honest, especially when you are responsible for a dangerous technology

It can be an exhausting way to view relationships, but I think it’s true. I’d argue there also is plenty of room for intimacy and vulnerability when it’s genuine. I think people appreciate these traits when they are genuine and appropriate, and prefer it to a fake aura of confidence

Didn’t realize we could post short stories on here. This one was really nice :)

I wrote a similar sci fi short story set in the near future if anyone is interested:

This is pretty cool :) I had worked on a similar project earlier this year, but applied to GA and not ES

This is so so, cool, but I feel like most of the features are lost once you need to use complex dependencies that aren’t in unison.

Love this. I feel this narrative is woefully under-appreciated. I think there’s something beautiful about watching people who aren’t near the top of their field, “normal” people who are just trying to have fun. But that doesn’t make a good story usually. I’ve tried writing some fiction along these lines, and it requires quite a bit more narrative to convey.
