This actually sounds like a great idea. I procrastinate a lot. I also play a lot of Raid Shadow Legends. I should totally gate those purchases behind hitting my goals.

Thanks for sharing.

Easy! The Vision Pro. It seams like Apple has already given up on that product.

This is off to a great start. I've been studying German through various methods for around 3 years now. Mostly as a mental exercise but also because I love German television.

For me, reading has been one of most productive ways to learn.

I'm originally from Tennessee. Chapel Hill actually. Boyhood home of Nathan Bedford Forrest. There's a monument to the guy and our streets were literally named after him. I've seen firsthand the systemic racism that permeates the miseducated people of that State. That said, this doesn't surprise me.

I'm just glad I move to Austin and away from that crap.

I would say this about most developers not just HN. It took years for me to break that mindset.

I've got tons of notes so it shouldn't be too hard to do a write up. Currently it's in a private repo, but if I can get sign-off from my boss I'll open source it.

This is exactly what I'm working on! My project is taking Zoom conversation, using pyannote for speaker diarisation, whisper for transcription, pinecone.io for semantic search, then feeding that into GPT-3 so we can ask questions about conversation.

For us this is super useful because it's not unusual for our discover sessions to last days and we're all terrible at taking notes.

As a nerd, my brain is already buzzing on ways that I could use this for my groups D&D campaigns.

This is sick! Thank you

That's subjective and I'm sure it is for you. I personally prefer TypeScript.

I'm glad to see passionate developers keeping on both sides. That's how we grow and become better.

Link rot is definitely a fair point. I'm curious if there is a longterm way of solving this problem.

Filecoin looks promising but I feel like that's just adding more complexity.

"What is stored on the blockchain is most often a link to a web page[6] that itself points to the associated object. Here again, we have lost all idea of decentralization"

No where in the article did the author mention IPFS (https://ipfs.io/). The trend with NFTs is that the digital assets are stored on IPFS, typically through a pinning service like Pinata (https://www.pinata.cloud/). With the asset being content addressable and not location based, and the address being a permanent part of the blockchain, how can the above statement be true?
