according to the first paragraph of TFA, the first flight was 9 weeks after the 1903 article was published

again, there needs to be conclusive proof of UFOs/extra-terrestrials.

The burden of proof is on those claiming they exist. Blurry videos of "objects in the sky" is not evidence.

because there is no concrete evidence. It's not credible, and just speculation at this point.

We've seen this before, and we'll see it again. If you want to convince people that aliens exist, you need to show evidence.

Evidence, Evidence, Evidence

According to Betteridge's law of headlines,

No.

LLMs will not eliminate the need for programming languages. This is overly sensationalist

What an expensive lesson for him to teach himself (if he has indeed learned anything).

I can appreciate his ambition, and what (some of) his companies have done, but he has absolutely mismanaged the acquisition and running of twitter.

If he could just step back, stick to managing SpaceX, Tesla and Boring, and stop tweeting, I would be very happy.

Yes, ChatGPT isn't a great developer. This has been known for a while now.

it can churn out decent code within well-specified parameters, but is unable to help out with the actual developer aspects of the role (debugging, critical thinking, requirement gathering, complaining about chatGPT, browsing HN, code-reviews, etc)

I don't know why this keeps getting blogged about / brought up.

first question I asked, how old are you.

apparently he's 41 years old and still attending hogwarts.

The problem with these AI systems is that they are great for responding with "realistic" responses that sound right but are still wrong given the context.

Ray tracing at 5fph, not bad at all for the hardware. I am impressed that this is even possible with a calculator

Any idea if this is for their own exynos SOC or will be for the Snapdragon as well?

I like Samsung phones but it's frustrating that they have these different configurations for different markets. Their custom SOC looks impressive and I wish it would come to North America

Microsoft needs to do everything they can to promote Edge in order to capture market share.

Edge and Microsoft have nowhere near the browser share needed to pull this behavior. And this differentiator is a detractor for me rather than a useful feature.

But then again this wasn't built for the end-users, this is clearly revenue base. Just another reason to not use Edge.

I think the real winner here is consumers. As the more competition in the space the better.

The article doesn't have a lot of details, but it would be interesting to know how long ago the Tesla set that record, as they continuously improve on their vehicles.

This is a really cool idea.

I'm wondering what your approach to scalability is, as it seems like you're going to have large bursts of traffic every half hour ( with certain hours having much more traffic depending on demographics).

If this messenger takes off, how are you going to deal with say for example all of India having their messages deliver all at once in the evening?
