First thing I thought of when I tried a Vision Pro was why they never provided a way to attach the battery pack as a pouch on the back so that it sits horizontally across the rear of the head. You have to carry that external battery anyway, so why not use it as a natural counterweight?

I dont think open weight models are going to be a big disrupter. At even a small scale you need a machine with 8 gpus just to run the larger models that still arent that close to SOTA. A machine like that is half a million per year. You might need a second for dev or fine tuning. Then you will need an engineer who know who to tune the model. Youll probably need k8s and Dynamo experts to run the inference infra. It all gets very expensive, very quickly. Sure some customers will pay this, but many, many more are just going to pay per token. Its the same model that made the hyperscalers like AWS into giant cash cows. only this time, tokens can be sold to both enterprises and grandma. Grandma aint buying AWS.

> You sold this to people as a search summary, you know it might be full of crap and you chose to do it anyway

There is a subtle difference in stating it as a search summary compared to an opinionated answer. Most users are always going to treat it as a response from google instead of search results where the user is still responsible for understanding and come up with their own interpretation.

This is probably the right step in some sense to make one liable for their statements/assertions.


If you ever been to Gold Coast, that place is perfect fit for Trumps toxicity.

That’s usually attached to a rather bulky device with a legally mandated, visible unique identifier.

And then in the general case, the answer I guess would be a additive superposition of multiple functions including x.x' ... Hence, x.x' serves for purposes of explanation that the original author is aiming for.

It's too expensive.

I'm going to say it will be similar to the experience prior to birth / conception, ie. we were nothing, and to nothing we shall return.

It's a scary feeling if you can grasp it. Grasping non-existence from within existence is difficult, I've consciously tried to do it and succeeded a couple of times, but it's fleeting and both times it affected my breathing and heart rate in a similar way to fear or panic or pain.


WSL1 was so cool, WSL2 made it boring and isolated.

Makes sense, thank you.

What was your argument? Other than “trust me bro”

If I said something like "socrates might have asked..." as so many many many people and articles and people have said before me...?

I don't see you in the comment section of all those articles that engagegd in such behavior; naming Socrates as the inspiration of their inquistion.

Why now? Why here?


I had thought it said something about token usage, but I just clicked on "Switched to Opus 4.8 - Why?" and it says:

> Fable 5 has safety measures that flag messages on most cybersecurity or biology topics. They may flag safe, normal content as well. These measures let us bring you Mythos-level capability in other areas sooner, and we're working to refine them. Send feedback or learn more.

Perhaps Mythos realizes the true danger in studying Chinese Archaeoastronomy that we mere mortals fail to recognize!


According to the development trend of AI, the demand for software engineering may decrease, but it will not disappear. In any case, top engineers are always in demand. The demand for software engineers in ordinary positions will not be as great as it is now

I'd always rather use Linux, but sometimes your employer gives you a MacBook. I might use this tool.

Please don't post bombastic, inflammatory comments like this on HN. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for.

If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.


That makes no sense whatsoever. Thought experiment:

Household #1 uses 7 kWh of electricity per day. They install a solar + battery system that produces 7 kWh per day, covering 100% of their use. This costs them $C, and the reduction in the amount of electricity they use from the grid will save them enough to break even in 5 years.

Household #2 uses 14 kWh of electricity per day. They also install a solar + battery system that produces 7 kWh per day, which covers 50% of their use. This costs them $C, and reduces the amount of electricity they use from the grid by 7 kWh per day, just like household #1. Therefore it should take them 5 years to break even, just like household #1.

Breakeven time is a function of cost and the amount your grid usage goes down. How much electricity from the grid you use if your solar system cannot supply 100% of your usage should be irrelevant to the payback time.


I would also be interested.

I haven't dug into this at all yet, nor have I tried to optimize the size (or really, anything else).

However, the library part will be less than half of this - a lot of code is spent on the CLI specific stuff and would not be part of the library, which is mostly what I care about for the purposes of this project. The CLI part is just to try to prove the point that it actually does what Git does. The library part is what might be useful in that nothing else exists that does all of the things that it does (provide a reentrant linkable library that is feature complete with Git).


Sure, every action has reactions. I'm not saying the first response should be to shoot the dog in such a scenario, it should be the last resort least of all because it wasn't the dog creating the situation.

It and to be handled though. Yes, there may be retaliation for shooting the dog but there may be retaliation for calling the cops as well. All you can do is deal with the situation at hand, there is no magic bullet authority or otherwise.


It's not that you need to turn on some extra library backends and rebuild, it's that the abstractions themselves are fundamentally at odds with hitting peak performance on many things so you have to rewrite your code.

Individual image processing operations are often very low arithmetic intensity. If you don't combine them into much larger subroutines—which are necessarily less generic and orthogonal—you spend all your time waiting on memory between every little op.


No, they don't force it down your throat. You can click "no" once in a while and it looks like it does not exist. Try that with Copilot.

illegally, yeah

Someone could write a cyberpunk Three Body Problem with this premise.

Most of HN is stuck in this fantasyland where they insist their local LLM setup is comparable to Opus 4.8 or GPT 5.5. It's like a collective delusion, I've never seen anything like it.

I doubt they'll phase out Haiku, some work needs speed more than intelligence. Haiku can answer a lot faster than Sonnet.

It seems way more keen to do stuff without checking with me. So far the results are good, so I'm not complaining, but was definitely a shock.

I usually have 5-10 sessions open so am used to getting some investigations going, coming back 5 minutes later and checking recommendations. This time I just got the fixes. Like I said, so far so good with the results, but it's a mental model shift.

Might need to tune claude.mds if it gets annoying


Is there any reason why macOS doesn't try a WSL1 style approach? I get why that didn't fully work out for windows, but it seems like macOS being another *nix would make a lot of what was hard for windows, easy for mac. It seems like it should be possible to run most linux applications natively on macOS with few additional new APIs.

BSD actually has this already.


Another interesting concept here is that the solar system is a second generation(minimum) system, too much iron+ for a first generation system. So the first generation star had explode to form all the heavy metals. Where is the original stellar remnant? Is there a Black hole or neutron star or whatever it is called if it can't even make it to neutron star levels in roughly the same galactic orbit as our sun?.

A good follow up question that nobody knows the answer to is "how much iron is in the sun?" The problem as I understand it is we can only directly see the very outer layer where there is no iron, so the standard answer is statistically none, only fractional percentages. But based on the distribution of elements in the solar system I sort of expect a sizable iron core.


So, a constant number of people.

(less facetiously, I think they mean "5 to 50")
