I use a 43" 4k tv at the standard non-retina 4k with an m1 pro. I tried your 8k supersampling but it doesn't seem to improve on the default 4:4:4 8bit rgb non-retina for me. (smoother but no…

I think the poster is referencing that uBlock Origin does not work with browsers other than Firefox. And that while some sites work poorly (deliberately deprecating Firefox), other sites work very p…

This was a little dense for me to grok. Are these well known results or is there an abstract-like summary? The RYS (repeat yourself) hypothesis that duplicating (the right) layers is enough to improve…

I think this is roughly true, but instead RAM will remain a discriminator even moreso. If the scaling laws apple has domain over are compute and model size, then they'll pretty easily be able to …

I generally think that. But letting dwell time/clicks/open-rates expand the recommender and then (bound to swipe) 'disinterested'/'show less like this' to cull has b…

Is there any discussion somewhere about adding in the data that makes the x.com/twitter recommend/ranker so functional? The "Grok-based Transformer"[0] that uses P(click/dwell…

For anyone reading this later. I read a little from sandvault and they suggest sandbox-exec doesn't allow recursive sandboxing, so you need to set flags on xcodebuild and swift to not sandbox in …

I love this implementation. Do you find the SBPL deficient in any ways? Would xcodebuild work in this context? Presumably I'd watch a log (or have an agent) and add permissions until it works?

I hadn't seen your site before (or been following SBC for a while) and just skimmed the article and was going to move on. (The post was very cool.) It wasn't until this thread that I actuall…

Normal price is a technical term I assume. Is it just a historical price, or is it knowable without market based price discovery?

Separate profiles is perfect. Not sure why I haven't been doing this. The keyboard shortcuts are wonderful and enter to open the article is so optimistic! Thank you for dragging me across the fin…

ya, thank you, I recognize the history! The extension just seemed isolated from another identity. So I was wondering the thinking. I wish chrome let you scope the manifest/permissions on the user…

I wonder how you think about trusting oj-hn as a vendor? The extension looks great. I sympathize with the desire to release programs/code anonymously or semi-anonymously on the internet. I notice…

I started a golang TUI last summer with Codex Web/Cloud because it felt more like a closed loop. It was able to manage pretty well end to end. Every additional complexity hop probably increases t…

Wow cool. I have not heard of Mondo 2000 reading hn for almost 20 years. And did not realize Boing Boing was so old. Makes me wonder what else existed. My family had a bunch of "Dr. Dobb’s Journa…

There was a small network of AI-intellectualism (and rationality) that grew highly relevant when AI took off post chatgpt. It feels adjacent to Tyler Cowen's network + tpot + hn/lesswrong. (…

Thank you! I think this fits the bill. I'll check back in on it periodically now. I love the double decker bus sale notification and the moquette doormats. It feels like it's straddling the …

Definitely not a bot or ai touched at all or ESL. And reading the comment as I wrote it, it definitely read oddly to me too! Maybe I’ve accidentally created a mini dododo land here with the comment.. …

Soranews24 is one of the best websites on the internet! So weird and looks like spam but it's not. This Dododo Land is so weird. Seems like Meow Wolf or Museum of Ice Cream but featuring little t…

They say elsewhere that it’s part of a series of reveals. The ev powertrain last October, this, and the exterior in May.

I asked for this last week in an hn comment and people were pretty negative about it in the replies. But I’m happy with position and will cancel my ChatGPT and push my family towards Claude for most t…

I think I used to believe something like this. But I spent two decades living in this context and changed my mind. There can be beautiful and effective expressions of culture and resistance that don’t…

Yes, I thought OP was going that direction from the title. I keep reading posts hoping someone has found the solution but there's always a tradeoff. I think it's important enough that maybe …

Not sure if you're referring to me, or making a more general comment. I'd listen to someone who has managed to not see an ad or pay for a subscription in 20 years. Sounds pretty impressive. …

Apple's ad revenue is ~5% of company revenue? It seems like the split could be a lot higher. They might have to give up something for that though.

Oh. I do pay since basically the day they offered it. It's not a matter that they should care. No ads is a point of product differentiation. One among many. But in some sense ads are a natural re…

I largely agree with you on the relative scales. But I definitely notice a pretty significant portion of the academic CS community are beginning to materialize on bluesky. You can probably start with …

I hope Anthropic or someone pulls an Apple and has the taste to say no to ads. Maybe it will just be Apple. (Even their resistance is slowly fading..) We don't need to jam ads into every orifice.…

On bsky, like a few AI/tech things (simonw, dan abramov, jeff dean, ethan mollick etc, and the people in their replies). Then use discover and this 'for you' feed - https://b…

Machine learning is slowly happening on bluesky. It would just take one lab defecting. And maybe hosting some better feed algorithm technology.
