I once fell for three mini docs at the beginning of Magnolia movie. Only years later did I discover they were made up instead of being real. One must be careful with those artsy people.
> I think one danger with cosmologies like this is there’s an aspect to them where people could become mistakenly convinced of their own powerlessness as a way to explain in grand terms personal failings.
Thx for posting this. `It was fun, but worthless. IDK, that's my life, that's my whole Being.` What a fantastic person, Ken Thompson. The way he is shows so strong in this short clip. Gonna look up some biography of him or sth.
I understand first example. That's one of many, tiny, little things in the area of automation, say like 'advanced scripting'. Your second example is indeed advanced.
What I can see myself trying to do is some new ways of working with body of text notes. Local RAG for chatting with documents is also interesting.
And yes, with 'subscription based computing' shreds of privacy we had are gone.
Can you list some useful things you can do with such models which are beyond 'fancy' use, like image generation, or standard chat (which is subpar compared to frontier)?
I use my RTX4070 (12VRAM/64RAM) mostly for STT, though I am having real trouble to set up working environment for any Whisper derivatives after migrating to Fedora.
So, not bad in terms of 'manual' update, but still needs some of your time, right? Anyway, interesting to be able to see these posts in this way. Nice work with tagging - will check/explore how these work.
Cool. What do you mean by 'manually' and 'some' delay?
If you have a list of posts you pull data from, it would be nice to have a simple clickable list of them all on a separate page. Also, (month year) could go next to neat 'View on HN' on each item.
1. on A9 near nurnberg we caught a ride with a musician from munich (he played trumpet and showed us his music when i asked if he had any recordings in the car). it was heavily raining and it was late in the night. as we were approaching munich, he got off the highway and i was worried how we were supposed to get back on the highway in the middle of a effing night, but he just drove home and we stayed overnight. we ate breakfast together with the whole family (wife, kids) and he drove us off to the nearest autobahn entry on his way to the conservatory (he used to teach there) - we were going south, to italy. that's first top of my head, surely there is more. good times. we connected, big time.
Doesn't seem like solid reporting on the facts.
