One has to imagine that the op is a ceo himself. They are just not engaging with any of these arguments in good faith - strawmanning and then attacking personally

Yeah this op keeps skipping this point… like this is everyone’s argument boiled down and he just keeps saying well market says he’s valuable. No, market says his departure is indicative of real price being XXm lower than previous, it could have little to do with his value directly

30m unvested at what price? If you think it’s going to 2x, then it’s worth 60m. Maybe zuck paid an unrealistic multiple - 20x, but out side of that still a bearish signal

How much of the drop do you think is due to the bearish nature of ceo departure? One would have to assume that if the company was going to go gangbusters the ceo would stay.

In short: is it this particular CEO who is that valuable? Should I pay 100m to some Joe off the street since I know they will stay put?

I actually never knew what this was from. Unironically useful context

beautiful demo - is it running fully locally or talking to 3rd party API’s? That box was jaw dropping small

What do you have going on the hardware side? I want to plug this into hass but don’t know what hardware I need for reasonable latency

I switched my parents onto Linux a couple months ago, after my mom kept getting confused between edge and chrome - not being to uninstall edge was the last straw, but the massive amount of adware slowing down her capable-but-old laptop was a close second.

So far so good! Some smaller hiccups, like chrome won’t use dolphin, but I installed rustdesk so I can help them through whatever.

Over Christmas the in-laws were asking about Linux because of windows issues, which was surprising since they’re technologically literate but in a layman sense. I didn’t try to switch them over since the parent experiment is still ongoing but a couple more months of seamless use and I’ll consider it a success.

All this to say I’m very glad for Microsoft leadership!

Does anyone else think this method of discourse incredibly rude? This poster posted a quasi researched comment that looks surface credible. A HN user took the time to respond to each point - only for the response to the response to be “whoops sorry, wasted your time!”

Feels like a breach of social contract. I used to see help requests that were well written as a signal of effort - as in “I’ll put in the effort to help since they did”

I also asked claude to roast it for fun. this one made me lol:

> The use case is Chef's Kiss levels of overengineering. They want to avoid Git commits... so they built a custom S3 server... that runs in a container... that gets rebuilt on every NixOS rebuild... to serve static files... to FluxCD. At some point, just make the damn Git commits.

The nix file is besides the point - it gives you a totally hermetic build environment. Not OP, but it’s the only way I know how to get gcc to use a static glibc. All you should pay attention to is that it’s using a static glibc.

$out is a magic variable in nix that means the output of the derivation - the directory that nix moves to its final destination

They’ve now removed your second example from the testing set - I bet they won’t regenerate their benchmarks without this test.

Good sleuthing, seems someone from OpenAI read your comment and found it embarrassing as well!
