This. I had to create a temporary card with my banking app (Monzo), then I could switch out the payment method on my adobe account. Then I could cancel the temp card and then finally Adobe can die whilst trying to charge my cancelled card. They wanted me to pay £80 to cancel, I’d had the account for 10 years so no idea what the cancellation related to.

If you’re using Claude then guess what, it’s running on Elon’s GPUs. If you’re using Codex, then say hello to Microsoft for me. Let’s just presume that everyone hates everyone and get back to talking tech.

So depressing to read the non-stop political comments here. I’m using GLM at the moment, it’s Chinese and backed by god knows who, and no one cares. I really wanted to see what the experts thought of new Grok tech and how the model compares etc. I wish I could turn off the non-technical comments somehow, could literally just go to reddit if I want to see garbage like this. Am I supposed to get emotional every time I see a Tesla drive by? HN was so much better than this.

Where have the hardcore nerds gone? How is the model, is it good at coding? What does this mean for competition and pricing?

"We will introduce a digital ID within this Parliament to help tackle illegal migration, make accessing government services easier, and enable wider efficiencies. We will consult on details soon. "

I wonder how many different justifications are offered around the world for digital ID, and how those reasons shift depending on the issues perceived to be most pressing at the time.

Good that it has an “allowed domain” list, makes it really useable. The OpenAI Responses api web search doesn’t let you limit domains currently so can’t make good use of it for client stuff.

I agree, SpaceX has 13,000 genius staff working in the aerospace industry, I'm pretty sure they can add some value to an aging ATC system.

The system is largely developed by Lockheed, Raytheon and Thales (all defense contractors). If there's a legal issue with SpaceX doing this I'm sure you'll hear about it.

Do these companies close on a week day, like they just don’t open on a Monday. Or do the staff just do 4 out of the 5 days, but the company operates all week and the team need coordinating so they have coverage all week? I’d love to do this at my place, but would want to close the whole business and I don’t think our clients would be happy.

It's Number 3 by the looks of it!

GPT:

The book you're thinking of is likely "In the Country of Last Things" by Paul Auster. While not a collection of short stories, this novel often gets mentioned in relation to discussions about Auster's work involving themes of dystopia and allegorical narratives. The reference to Noah's Ark might be metaphorical, reflecting the themes of catastrophe and survival that are common in Auster's work. If you specifically remember a collection of short stories involving Noah's Ark, it could be another author or a less known work of Auster, as his major works don't typically revolve around this theme directly in the form of short stories.

I’m not confident this is correct!

It's about £2,500 ($3,100) per year in the UK if you just buy it online, not subsidised. I don't know how the US massive price hike is justified when the whole western world is buying it from the same supplier (Novo Nordisk in Denmark).

It launched a few months ago, but was then taking offline. This seems to be a new version.

I’ve thought this for months now, since GPT has become a go to tool I use it all the time for questions that Google has no chance of answering. E.g I’ve just played G - C - Am on my piano. What’s a good next chord? It understand music theory and gives about 5 optional chords and describes what each one may do for the song (add suspense, resolve something, lighten it, etc). Google feels really last gen very quickly. They’re basically AltaVista at this point. And ChatGPT is what AskJeeves claimed to be!
