It's amazing how SoundCloud had "everything" and they threw away. They had the unique Indy artists, they had the DJs and music producers, and they opted to move to compete with Spotify on a money loosing bet, without putting the effort to build the Player in at least every single platform supported.

They did even more harm to themselves by blocking open source players that were doing "their work for free".

If there is one big mistake they did early on was to block API access. The other one was to bet on "record labels contract" rather then becoming the source for Originals.
For sure, I just found it to be an interesting lens to view that though.
Yet another opportunity to remind buying physical media is still an option.
What? No. It's how much fluid (not how much heat) and the oil cut of the fluid you are pumping up the borehole in the O&G industry. This has no bearing on whether the hole is fracked. It's a matter of the decline curve of the well. Not every well in amenable to fracking, and there are techniques other that fracking that will lift the decline curve, but then it starts declining again.

But this is neither here nor there. The energy you extract from a geothermal well is heat, which then needs to be converted to electricity. The BTUs in a good oil or gas well exceed those of a geothermal well. You have the same issues of the well becoming less productive. The remediation strategies for this are similar, i.e. pumping fluid back into the ground.
Tell me where the LLM user directed the LLM to slurp (C) works.
I am a big "mini PC" guy. We've owned a bunch of NUCs, custom SFF builds, custom laptops, etc to try and get generally the best bang for the buck in a small form factor.

My recommendations:

- Intel NUC. You can pickup a used Skull Canyon NUC if you can find one at a reasonable price, will easily handle all the games and things you mentioned. I owned one and loved it!

- Asus ROG Ally with the Z1. $399 at Best Buy, can handle all your gaming needs, only needs a single USB C hub to connect to everything. I currently use the Z1 Extreme version (more powerful) as my PRIMARY desktop. I love it.

- Get a cheap laptop. Find something with the bare minimum specs to run the things you need and just keep it closed.

- Build your own SFF. Find a really tiny case, get a really tiny power supply, and get an APU from AMD that has a built-in GPU. They run cool, they are cheap (though not as cheap as a cheap laptop or steam deck), and you can customize whatever you want. You can get pretty tiny with these, but not exactly Mac Mini sized.

- Get a base iPad (~$230 on sale), Samsung tablet ($99+), Android stick (< $99), whatever and do a remote desktop. I use GeForce Now for a ton of my gaming and Microsoft just released a new "Windows as an app" concept for iOS that gives you a remote desktop.
You make it sound like opticians hand-hew lenses from blocks of glass with various levels of craftsmanship. AFAICT, they take measurements and send the prescriptions off to be made by specialist manufacturer. Glasses are regulated medical devices with real oversight, not some rinky-dink industry that Apple can waltz in and be the best manufacturer by default.
This is one of the biggest releases with 17k+ non-merge and 1k+ merge commits. The highlight is of course the brand new bcachefs filesystem. This is an exciting one to try out.
This must come up a lot.
Would the CVR have helped in this specific situation? I'd assume this was a flaw of the plane and the lack of recording is probably not that big of an issue.
Show HN: I built a minimalist time zone converter
I've actually considered setting up a Mexican corporation to run C2C contracts through for those who want LATAM hires, but the logistics seemed pretty onerous, especially since I don't live near the border. I'd be willing to do a single trip there to finalize everything, but it seems like as a US resident/citizen you'd need to basically stay there for weeks/months while everything is set up, or make multiple trips for each step of the process.

It's hard not to get angry at the company when you see them hiring at median US wages ($100-120k US equivalent) but specifically refusing to hiring folks in the US, when the company is US-based.
You could look into the new Minis Forum MS 01 (which is already on sale?): https://store.minisforum.com/products/minisforum-ms-01

Starts from $549 for the barebones with an i9-12900H. You could argue it is a better option as it has an internal PCIe slot for a half-slot GPU, which will be much less bulk than a mini PC + eGPU. Plus, it would probably be cheaper since eGPUs aren't cheap.

ETA Prime did a review on it the other day: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUlptjU0vFQ
Thankfully your opinions and beauty standards mean nothing on the internet. I for one think they look fantastic.
I could also go to my local library, steal a bunch of books every week, and sell them on ebay for profit. There's a lot of ways to make money if you're willing to ignore the rule book.
What other job would you recommend? It seems like the ones considered low hanging fruit for automation, the drudge-work, are actually resistant, but I don't really feel like asking people if they want fries with their burger.

Yeah, agreed on thus-far-lack-of-decline for Bandcamp.

However, always important to note that there are different POVs on such things:

* customers
* musicians
* employees
* partners

I only know that I see no change as a customer, have not been notified of changes as a musician, and sense that it's probably worse for employees.
That is a good point.

I still don't see it as common use case.
My dad was a welder at a machine shop for a long time. Can confirm.

Whether they will is the real question. A lot of shops in my area had some rules around sizes and quantities.

From the comments, one suggestion from an AK is

Why would or wouldn't that work?
Sure it does. It binds the human trainers.
>Everytime I see complications with copyright I think that it should be similar to patents. Short length of time with an optional renewal if the work is valuable enough. I don't think it would be too much to ask for rights holders to be required to apply for copyright (for a small fee, let's say $5/work) and provide a central authority with a copy of their work. This would solve issues such as

Often when I see posts like this, I wonder what the posters actually know about copyright.

In order to bring any copyright action in the US, your work needs to be registered, which costs a bit more than $5, and also requires sending deposit copies to the the copyright office to be maintained in the library of congress.

>3) Everything under the sun is copyrighted for absurd lengths of time. Does a macaroni art piece I made when I was in 1st grade need copyright for 70 years after I'm gone? I don't think so, but I understand that the newest movies need some protection.

Who cares? Honestly - what difference does it make? Has your macaroni art piece caused unnecessary litigation? are people afraid to make other macaroni sculptures, knowing that you made yours? What have you actually thought about copyright, its incentives, structures, and the creative market, if you are seriously making this assertion in the face of these obvious questions?
Ever read Vonnegut's _Player Piano_? Eventually there's just no real work to be done, unless you want to invent even more bullshit jobs for the FIRE sector.

I just got an Asus PN53 with the Ryzen 7735H processor at work. Officially it only supports 32GB but I slapped two 32GB sticks in there for 64GB total and it worked just fine. Takes a minute or two to train the memory on first boot though!

Anyway, with a fast PCIe 4.0 NVMe OS disk it's plenty fast for me. Benchmarks puts it on par with my Ryzen 3800X at home.

Supports additional NVMe and a 2.5" SATA so fair bit of storage, and sports 2.5GbE.

Haven't tried to stress the GPU, but feels smooth in Windows, YouTube in Firefox and all that jazz.

I think if the plane is still operational for 2 hours then the data is a lot less important than the alternative scenarios.
They tried to win the mainstream audience and failed because the mainstream went to Spotify instead. But by selling out to the majors they also hurt the underground artists and producers that built the site's indie cred in the first place. There was a good article a few years back on The Verge: https://www.theverge.com/2017/7/21/15999172/soundcloud-busin...

I guess since then the platform saw some success as a home for lo-fi hip-hop, so it seems a new generation of youngsters have gotten something out of it. Good for them. For electronic music I think we mostly went to Bandcamp and Mixcloud, especially when Beatport sold out too.

I'm picking up a Pimax Crystal for that purpose. I'll probably get an AVP, but don't expect to be able to use it for gaming. That's not its purpose. It's a MacBook Pro built into a headset.

Oh man I’m a big fan, swyx!! Latent Space & AI.engineer are fantastic resources to the community. Thank you for the kind words & the prompt!

It’s still early days, but at a high level, I have a few goals:
- expand accessibility and increase awareness of the power & viability of small models — the scene can be quite impenetrable for many!
- provide the an easy to use, attractive, efficient app that’s a good platform citizen, taking full advantage of Apple’s powerful device capabilities;
- empower more people to protect their private conversation data, which has material value to large AI companies;
- incentivize more experimentation, training & fine-tuning efforts focused on small, privately-runnable models.

I’d love to one day become your habitual ChatGPT alternative, as high a bar as that may be.

I have some exciting ideas, from enabling a user generated public gallery of characters; to expanding into multimodal use cases, like images & speech; composing larger workflows on top of LLMs, similar to Shortcuts; grounding open models against web search indices for factuality; and further out, more speculative ideas, including exposing tools like JavaScriptCore to models as a tool, like Python in ChatGPT’s code interpreter.

But I’m sure you’ve also given a lot of thought to the future of AI on device with smol — what are some dreams you have for truly private AI that’s always with you?

Precisely. Zeiss (almost always) makes very good lenses, which is why Apple selected them.

But I've had opticians do a poor job of getting me the prescription I need, and so the Zeiss lenses were way off.

I bet Apple will have this dialed in from the get-go.
You both aren't being constructive. Please stop.
That is the usual mentality in FOSS circles, the 3D APIs are a tiny portion of what makes a game engine when placed the set of bullet point of what something like Unreal must be able to deliver to a team, while targeting all these backends,

"Windows PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, macOS, iOS, Android, ARKit, ARCore, OpenXR, SteamVR, Oculus, Linux, and SteamDeck."

Yes, but it was unplayable on console at launch.
It's kind of disingenuous to criticise minipc's for "limited upgrade-ability" when the Mac Mini has everything soldered on and is completely non-upgradable (no storage, no memory, no cpu upgrades), and the Mac Studio has memory slots, but non-upgradable and proprietary components.

If you want to judge a small serverlike device for being non-upgradable, the Mac Mini and Mac Studio would completely fail this criteria.
Show HN: Dashwave – Fast Android cloud build tool with collaborative emulators
Introducing Dashwave Public Beta!

Hello, I am Supratik Das, Co-founder, and CTO at Dashwave. I am thrilled to announce the launch of Dashwave, a powerful cloud build and emulation tool for fast and collaborative Android development. It supports all major Android languages/frameworks: Java, Kotlin, React Native and Flutter.

Why Dashwave? - The Problem

Android developers often struggle with insanely long build times and resource-intensive emulation sessions. They work in close collaboration with product stakeholders and rely on WIP feedback. Since builds, and feedback are slow, this leads to a 'code more, build less' approach, causing debugging challenges due to insufficient testing and productivity losses.

Solutions exist but their scope is limited either as a general-purpose build tool or a CI/CD build tool. At Dashwave we are tailoring the entire platform right from the local development stage for the use cases of Android Developers.

What is Dashwave? - The Solution

With Dashwave, you can quickly onboard your project, fire your local build on Dashwave’s cloud, preview the native emulated app interactively streamed to the browser and share emulation for feedback/demo/anything you want. Don’t believe me? Watch this video where I do all the above three in 5 minutes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQpmVfyF44o

KEY FEATURES

Integration with IDEs/Editors: Integrate local code with our build engine using DW CLI. Attach an Android debugger while you build and emulate on our cloud.

Cloud Builds: Get fresh build environments with no dependency conflict. Build on powerful cloud nodes tapping parallelization. Supports Java, Kotlin, React Native and Flutter

Remote Caching: Dashwave uses Gradle Enterprise grade Distributed Caching to speed up your builds. If a project was built historically by anyone on Dashwave, future users will enjoy cached builds.

Build Analytics: Analyse build performance and dev productivity with Builds ROI stats, cache utilisation metrics

Cloud Emulation and Previews: Preview your built app on cloud emulators, interactively streamed to your browsers. You can also connect your physical device to Dashwave Cloud to enjoy real device previews.

Collaborate: Share your emulated app build as a link to anyone, exchange contextual comments with screenshots and logs to get feedback.

Reduce CI Headaches: Use a singular ground for development and CI builds. If it builds on dev, it will build on CI.

Security and Privacy: Rest easy knowing that your data and intellectual property are protected by the latest security measures.

Visit https://dashwave.io to know more. Join our discord server for help and the latest updates.

Start creating your first build on (https://console.dashwave.io/)

We can't wait to see what you create with Dashwave!

Happy building!
Web Share Target API isn't a good experience on Android either.

Partly because it only works if the user visits your site with Chrome for Android (even Chromium browsers don't work).

And partly because receiving a share unrecoverably takes over whatever the user is doing. If the user opens something from your PWA (an external link, another app) and then shares back into your PWA, whatever they were looking at gets killed and your PWA navigates to the share target.

I'm building a web app built around sharing and I'm going to have to wrap it in an Android app solely to get around this.
Drag (air friction) is proportional to the square of velocity. If you know aerodynamic properties of iphone, you could find a value of velocity where drag is equal to gravitational force, at which point the speed doesn't change. You could use it as an approximation of the speed at which iphone hits the ground.
IME people use it to refer to their capacity to cope with people, small talk, etc. equivalently 'stamina'.
Same (Chrome, FF and Edge)
Beautiful. Try typing:

2 3 + 4 5

in the upper-left, under "kyte/k".
Go to any webpage/PWA, hit the share button, hit “add to home screen“.

That’s it. It’s not complicated or restricted in any way.

That... sounds like you're describing the average Ryzen APU? My 8-core 5800u feels pretty similar to an M1 Mac Mini in most respects, besides the fact it's in a laptop.
It was tongue in cheek, but it’s true. Just because you can do different things on It doesn’t mean that this is not gonna be a large component of it.

You claimed LLMs learn like a human. This is not true.

Since you seem to be a super tech enthusiast, I suggest you ask CHATGPT if an LLM "learns" the same way a human does.
Show HN: Talo: a CLI tool to manage your ADRs, RFCs, and other design documents
Hi,

I created a CLI tool that can be used to create, update, list and export (to HTML) software design documents like Architecture Decision Records (ADR), Requests for Comments (RFC), and any other custom document types you may have.

It's already trivial to create a Markdown file from an existing template and start typing. And, you will have to do most of the job in your favorite editor anyway. Here is what talo brings to the table:

- You can list all your documents displaying their titles and latest statuses.

- You can export your documents to HTML. talo will link documents to each other so that when a document supersedes another, you will be able to navigate between the two via hyperlinks.

- You are not limited to ADR and RFC. You can create your own document type(s) and use talo to manage them.

The demo GIF in the README showcases some of the use cases. Advanced topics like creating your own document types are also documented in the README.

talo is free and open source.

If you already have .NET SDK 8.0, you can install it as a dotnet tool (`dotnet tool install --global Canpolat.Talo`). Otherwise, you can download the single file binary executable for your system (Linux/Windows).
On IOS, I can't install a PWA/add to home screen with a simple click. I think thats the bigger obstacle.
Given that Boeing currently has to ship planes to Europe with 25 hours of recording capacity, and that this plane is only a few months old, I'd guess it already has 25 hours of capacity and it's artificially limited to 2 because it was shipped to the US, due to the opposition from pilot's unions.
I was a SoundCloud subscriber for a few years until mid '19. Back then the value prop was music discovery + streaming access to artists who weren't on other platforms.

But I don't see any evidence of growth. Other platforms have stepped up their music discovery tools and broadened their catalogs. I ended up dropping the subscription because they didn't support Android Auto and said they had no plans to (in their defense, they introduced support in mid-2021).

It very much feels like SoundCloud was first to the space (were they? surely someone else did "YouTube but music" first) and have been riding that out.
I have noticed that after I get banned from Reddit for idiotic reasons, the accounts I create through VPN get silently blocked on a lot of subreddits, while the account that got created from home ISP had that problem less so.

It's not victim blaming, just a fact that some sites punish VPN users.
I would like to have a dumb phone with J2ME support.
There's a Youtube channel I watch, a machining/welding shop in Australia that makes and repairs parts for construction equipment. What amazes me is the work he gets because fabricating a new part, or substantially replacing much of an old worn part, can be like 1/2 the OEM price of a replacement part.

one trick i use is to keep the smartphone at home at all times. mine replaces the fixed landline phone. people can sms/mms me and i check the phone contents when going home after work or if i'm working from home, after my day of work is done and the work laptop turned off at the end of the day. works nicely because it's a kinda of upgraded landline phone.

and with me when not i home i carry a dumb phone and only family members can call me or message me on it.
Bluetooth is the example that you chose, and that I used to make a general point, which also applies to any other API.
