This reminds me of when Palantir released AIP. If you remember, there were lots of questions about Palantir growth in 2023 or thereabouts. They launched AIP and allowed LLMs to run over their ontologies. It lit a fire in their business and it’s been a rocket ship ever since. This is a similar product evolution. We have started to use it at 8090 and it’s pretty awesome.

1 hour 18 minutes. Flew by. Good showing by Ternus. Quick honest reaction is: better than Cook at these keynotes, but lacks the off-the-cuff nature and energy of Jobs. It's early. But also we NEED to go back to live. iPhone Duo demos would have been awesome live. #AppleEvent energy Related

Software entrepreneur who bootstrapped and sold FeedbackPanda and now builds Podscan; writes The Bootstrapped Founder.
We’re collectively realizing that experts, analog or digital, make strange decisions from time to time. Non-determinism, we learn, is both awesome and dreadful. It’s more powerful, but like people, these tools need active management (and resist it just like our best devs). Quoting @heyJordanParker Astra is such a weird model. 1. It makes better architectural decisions than Fable 2. It is more diligent & disciplined than Fable 3. It communicates better than Fable 4. Seems to compact better than every other model I've tested But also… 1. Is slow to answer 2. Is extremely slow & inefficient whe… Related

RE: https://infosec.exchange/@clayton/117175171619298911 It's OK. This feature is awesome, and one I use heavily. Every social network needs a few mutes here and there. Nobody inherently deserves anyone’s attention. If someone replies in a way that makes me think, "I'd rather not hear from this person again,” I just mute forever. No aggressive block, no report or feedback, no way for them to know. It's not meant to send a message, get revenge, or influence anyone else — just tailor my feed for me. Related

I’ve been a big fan of what @united is doing in general, but from what I’ve heard (via other passengers and flight attendants), it seems they didn’t renew their Panasonic contract for widebodies while Starlink is rolled out. I’m pumped about Starlink and will seek out United once I know it’s available (had it this week and it was awesome). Until then, however, no Internet, particular on transoceanic flights, is unacceptable and a very poor choice by United’s management. I’ll be flying someone else for those for now. Quoting @sliccardo I’ve just endured my third consecutive long-haul flight on @united with no WiFi. I’ve just decided to choose any other airline available, even if I have to connect to DC through New Zealand. Related

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
