Show HN: ShowGPT – share prompts, conversations, and templates with ChatGPT
I'm excited to announce the launch of showGPT, a new community for sharing all things chatGPT.

showGPT allows you to: easily share prompts and examples of conversations that you had with chatGPT, save your conversations with a convenient Chrome extension, try other people's conversations and prompts, get points on a leaderboard if other people try your prompts.

Additionally, you can create and share reusable templates and forms to make it easier to use chatGPT in a variety of ways.

To be honest, I highly doubt many people actually care about a worker's death, period. They'll be "shocked", then move on to the next bad news
Right, but when it comes to their branding stuff, I would expect the company to either store it (if they have enough space somewhere) or move it straight to trash. Selling their corporate logos for 25 USD looks like they are being liquidated and closing the shop. I can't understand how someone even come up with such idea ...
I’m curious if we have the same Coke Zero here in the US as where you are, they play kind of fast and loose with the branding on their sugar free drinks.

I question it because the Coke Zero we have here, very much unlike Diet Coke, is VERY sweet.

It’s genuinely pretty close to the real thing here, it’s sweetened with Sucralose which in my firm opinion does by far the best job at tasting like real sugar of the fake sweaters. I personally find it a very close approximation of regular Coke. It was actually closer and better though before the reformulation a couple years ago.

I purchased a car that exceeded that value, in cash. The seller actually worked for a bank’s fraud department.

I didn’t do it because I store a lot of cash in hand but rather because it was a PITA to move large amounts of money with the bank that I was using. The bank wouldn’t even authorise me to transact more than €10k a day via a bank transfer.

It took me a good few hours in the bank - on calls to many departments - just to get access to my money.

I’ve since moved to one of the newer challenger banks and it has been the best decision I’ve made.
Meta: HN should show subdomain for pages.dev
Unlikely. I believe it started as a hypothesis to explain the many spelling errors in scam mails, but I don't think this have ever been confirmed to be intentional.

Hanlons Razor is probably appropriate here.
Maybe you think that, but I’m sure many people have basic human empathy at the end of the day.

Yes statistically many people die on the job in many countries but every one is still a tragedy. You can think that and be running a large organization.

I feel like many conservative thinkers believe that it’s all “fake” and just PR. But human empathy is a real thing.
Yeah I think general consensus is that twitter was bloated and I'm guessing a lot of people were skimming by not doing much (or stuck doing things that amounted to not much).

Elon's methodology isn't the best way forward though. Ugh idk.
Boris Johnson is another example. He made Boris almost a brand.

I hear a lot of people say 'Rishi' now, and it seems to be a bit of a joke at Rishi Sunaks expense, to be derogatory about the PM, rather than branding.
The laptop I had supported 4 Gb (due to artificial limitations by Intel), but it started to switch off randomly and I found out that if you remove one (any) of RAM cards, then it can work without any issues. So this is how you can have a 2Gb device in 2022.

Having two laptops is twice better than having just one, so I decided to continue using it. Maybe I will connect it as a virtual monitor for a second laptop (then 2 Gb should be enough), but I am not sure if Wayland supports this.

Also, even if new laptos have 4+ Gb of RAM, there are still 5-10 years old models in use.

For context, few countries in the EU don’t have any limit to cash payments.

Most of them introduced them to decrease tax evasion, not money laundering.

You can still have that much money in cash, just not pay with it one transaction.
> I'm 10x more productive when I have the autonomy to bounce ideas off my team and proceed in the best way I see fit.

Why would scrum be a hindrance to that? I don’t know if any principle, artifact or event that is there to reduce team autonomy or to prevent the team from bouncing ideas of each other. And it seems scrum is intended to let the team procede whichever way they deem best.
I really meant within the right context, which would be western folks in tech talking about notable people in the industry, and likely have mentioned Google at some point in the conversation. Sergey isn't a common name among the notable in western tech.

Elon is even more unique of a name to western ears, so I was just pointing out that another (yet less unique) name also gets the first-name treatment.

For more examples, I'd say Satya Nadella also gets 50/50 first/last name treatment in casual conversation.

Drinking water from the Ganges is probably not worse than having sugary drinks as your primary source of water. You develop immunity to all the germs at least, and a lot of the industrial pollutants cause developmental issues so if you're an adult male it requires a far higher level to see ill effects. It's a moot point, since bottled water is an option anyways (and cheaper than soda).

On that topic, the fridges and freezers currently have bids lower than the fucking tables, which is insane. Those are way worth way more than the current bids at 25 USD.

Edit: seems I misunderstood and it's just the opening bids, the bidding hasn't started yet. Still strange that the opening bids are higher for a table than restaurant-style fridges/freezers.
IRS is ok with that because tax is paid. It wouldn’t bring any technical value to arrest those people; It would just reduce corruption. Ironically.

> He is no more required to accept my bag of cash

Sometimes, the bank won’t accept your bag of cash.

One time I was in a bank branch sorting out some matter, and I overheard a conversation between the bank staff and another customer. The customer had a bag containing $100K in cash, and wanted to deposit it into their account. The bank staff were on the phone to the bank’s security office, asking for permission to accept it. They said their cash security policy limited how much cash they were allowed to have on premises at any time, accepting this deposit would put them over that limit, so they had to get approval to exceed it before they could do so. You could tell from the tone the staff used, they didn’t appreciate this customer’s behaviour

Another time, my wife went to the bank branch, because her grandfather had sent our son $50 cash for his birthday, and she wanted to put it in his bank account. She stood in line for ages, only to then be told “I’m sorry we can’t accept any more cash deposits, someone just made a big one and now we are at the limit of cash we are allowed to hold in the branch”. My wife objected it was only $50, but the bank staff said “sorry, rules are rules”. I told her in the future, one of us should just transfer the equivalent money into his bank account from our own, and then keep the cash for ourselves

> And while the value might be there, both are a massive hassle for the seller, so they’d simply refuse most likely.

And the "hassle" is not actually accepting cash, as that's the least of the problems. It's dealing with the risk and consequences of doing business with someone the government doesn't approve of and then getting in trouble for it (even though the car business has nothing to do with that person).

You're arguing like if the salesperson is not accepting cash out of their own free will. But you know that's not true.

Think of this as being similar to the situation where the mafia was keeping tabs on your car business and you decided to do business in a way they did not approve of. What do you think would happen? Would you say the car business isn't being forced to do business in a certain way in this situation?

I also think this is a tricky but fun question. First off, what's minimal but decent? Maybe owning a phone with internet access and 4 changes of clothes. Eating enough nutritious food every week. Having a comfortable place to sleep, indoor plumbing and ease in moving about a 10 mile radius. Healthcare for emergencies only.

That might total the equivalent of $50/week in consumption and $20K in sunken costs per person in the developed world. Much less in developing nations.

You're thinking in terms of tens of hours when we could get by on minutes of work per day, if we optimised for comfortable survival. At the cost of stagnation. But not a bad trade-off to consider.
While OP might not be right with 2GB, try to open a couple of browser tabs, or even worse a couple of Electron apps on a 4GB system.

I don’t see how that’s related. It’s one thing to regulate who must and must not accept cash. E.g it’s in the interest of society to mandate important functions such as buying food is always possible with cash.

The law in the article is about a size limit for cash transactions when cash is accepted. It doesn’t have anything to do with who will or must accept cash. Only that if they do, there is a limit.

The poster you are replying to could possibly be Indian. Possibly this could be one reason
(Disclaimer - I am just assuming and not answering for him)

In India last name could mean anything ranging your "caste" / religion / community / god / place / family / fathers name / or any other random stuff.

Singh is a common last name and if you go to some parts and call Mr. Singh and possibly 100's would respond. And there are people with surname "Bangalore" because they were born there.

And in my part of South India, some of our last name is "First name" of our parents (mostly Father.. nowadays people also started adding their mother's first name). So my name is "My first name" + "My father's first name. And my son is named "Son's first name" + "My First name". It continues this way.

So most of us use the First name to mention someone. And you can see many Indian's making the mistake of addressing some one as "Mr. First name" though the proper usage is "Mr. Last name".

I had this difficulty when in Germany a government office asked why I have a different surname from my kid's and I had a hard time explaining it :)
What does "Alpha" mean here? As compared to Beta.
I never claimed that billions of people can live that way. I was merely responding to @FooBarBizBazz's comment above, pointing out that they can live that way if they really want to. There are others living that lifestyle voluntarily right now. Personally I think it would be miserable, but the option exists for those who really want it.

In developed countries at least, most labor is voluntary. There are certainly cases where people have been trafficked and essentially held as slaves, and we should do everything possible to stop those, but such cases are rare.

Usually they allow inflation to slowly bracket creep which has the same effect. For example the Bank Secrecy Act of 1970 sets reporting at $10K which would be ~$80K today. I've seen legislation for fines that has built in modifiers for inflation so the government knows how account for it.

> Sometimes, the bank won’t accept your bag of cash

Cash limits aside, They at least have legal requirements to know their customers and not blindly accept cash without any idea where it came from.

Edit: this isn’t an opinion this is a simple statement of fact.

Companies do this sort of stuff all the time. Loads of companies sell merch, and even very brand-sensitive companies will sell old equipment for fans/nostalgia (see: Disneyland selling old animatronics and ride vehicles).

They aren't selling it for 25 USD anyway, it's a start price at an auction. I listed my iPad at a $0.01 start price, but that doesn't mean I'm broke and need the penny :)

I was really puzzled by the comments under the video - people acting as if Doreen really set himself on fire somehow - while to me he seems to have set himself up quite well.

Forgive me, I'm still recovering from the flu and am having some trouble thinking, but I didn't find your "Why not build this into Realtime?" section very compelling. If you've already got a central source of truth (so you don't currently need the peer-to-peer nature of CRDTs), isn't it faster to iterate on your solution if you implement the merge semantics within the central source of truth that you have full control over? I'm not convinced from your post that turning the database into a component of a peer-to-peer distributed system is predictably worthwhile; it's certainly predictably going to be very complex. It smacks to me of spending a great deal of engineering effort to keep your options much further open than I've seen you justify.
I'm a heavy user of "Browser profiles". I have a profile for Work and one for personal stuff and I can't live without it.

In many cases, people would not be able to afford this.

Suppose I have $200k of equity in a $1M house. It depreciates to $700k. I now owe the bank $100k simply to be able to sell the house. Furthermore, if home prices depreciate that much, it’s likely rents would too, so it would be impossible for rental income to cover my mortgage payment, not to mention upkeep.

It's naive to think only the destitute perpetrate or fall victim to scams. By that logic, people like Bernie Maddoff or (allegedly) Sam Bankman-Fried wouldn't exist.
We can (and have) validated that measurement by comparing the total number of deaths of all causes to analogous past years.
Yeah, I thought something was up with that so me and my friends did our own randomized controlled trial where some of us got the vax and some didn't. Luckily I was part of the latter group because, believe or not, the vaccinated ones all dropped like flies.

> You're arguing like if the salesperson is not accepting cash out of their own free will. But you know that's not true.

Whose fault is it? I mean they literally don’t and as far as I know this is because is insecure and expensive. A bag of cash is an expensive liability. They’d prefer I deposited the money and transfered it to them instead. Most restaurants and cafes don’t accept cash either although they are certainly free to do so. But it’s more convenient to just put up a sign saying “no cash” and you have magically cut your cash handling costs to zero and your robbery risk significantly.
