Some (mostly American?) people know Mahjong as a solitaire game [1] that they likely have played on their phone or Windows PC/Mac. This article is talking about the (arguably less known?) 4-playe…

Everyone’s different. I’m good with zero-story puzzle games. I’ve spent many hours in Simon Tathem’s Puzzles [1] on my iPhone, just for the 100% pure logic goodness that they are. [1] https:/&#x…

Both your post and the parent post can be true.

Am I the only one that feels like Claude is clearly winning code generation, and Gemini in general LLM? I just don’t feel like OpenAI has a legitimate shot at winning any of the AI battles. Therefore,…

That’s exactly my point. If someone is high risk, say 20%, then an 18% drop from that is 14.4%. That may justify picking up caffeine. But if you’re otherwise healthy, picking up caffeine has diminishi…

I wonder how cool it would be to have a live ephemeral chat for each channel? One thing I love(d) about live TV (or even live radio) was the community around knowing other people were watching the exa…

I mean, this argument isn’t really specific to banking apps. This could apply to any native vs. web app, in general. Native apps can provide a bit more streamlined UX (e.g. Face ID), while also being …

I’m mostly referring to responding to the article itself (allegedly) being AI-written. Then the top half of the thread is derailed by a discussion about the article itself being AI-written.

Can we also add “Don’t complain about AI-generated content. It does not promote interesting discussion.”? I see this all the time, and even if I find the topic interesting, I don’t want to see comment…

The thing is, New Coke was at least an attempt (if failed attempt) to improve Coke for consumers. I don’t get the impression Microsoft has any desire to improve Windows for the consumer — they’re tryi…

You’re proving the exact point of the OP arguing against the “And vibe coding is coding.” statement. You’re focusing only on the results, and not the difference in cognitive function necessary to achi…

I just stay on my subscriptions page. Most of them don’t do Shorts, and the few that do don’t do many so they’re easy to ignore.

That’s not the problem with this post. The problem is that most LLM models answer it correctly (see the many other comments in this thread reporting this). OP cherry picked the few that answered it in…

This is about an AI sounding like a human, not a human sounding like a human.

Also agree with the other great suggestions in the sibling comments. One thing that would help if you could figure out the types of games you and your group might enjoy — or the type of group you and …

As someone that hosts and co-hosts several game nights (once or twice a week, most weeks), the key is to try to feel out the group, and if necessary/helpful/desired, send out "how to pl…

Yeah, this shouldn’t even be on HN, or Washington Post for that matter. There are going to be countless people that think AI is using their voice. Humans share remarkably similar voices, but obviously…

Yeah, I don't hear it. I kept listening waiting to hear the voice that was supposed to sound like him, and never did. Was it the first one (I heard three different voices during the clip)? That o…
