I am actually on a 1400-day streak of solo chess as of today, thank you. :)

That sounds like a wonderful day to me, TBH.

> But this is also how we get people watching social media clips at full volume in the cafe/bus/hiking trail. Which is a great step towards diminishing the life of everyone around you.

There's a very important distinction to be made between not caring what people think about your choices, and making choices that impose upon other people. Setting up a portable desktop at a coffee shop isn't imposing any more than hanging out at the same table with a laptop is. Blasting loud music from it is still a terrible thing to do.

Maybe this will be enough to finally rule against paywalled submissions here on HN.

On the other hand, the laptop struggling to power a good-enough LLM will probably be a great heat source for you in that igloo... for about 45 minutes.

People still occasionally wear Vision Pros in public, so I don't think the normal social etiquette applies here.

That said, truly not caring what strangers at a coffee shop think about you is probably a great step toward a great life.

"You can get the same thing for less money" has never been an effective criticism vs Apple computers. People will pay the extra $800 so they don't have to also buy a 24" monitor, keyboard, and mouse... and they'll all be the same color.

How does the job role break down for these 60k workers? Are they mostly devs? Other roles?

Can't read the article because of the paywall.

I have nearly 600GB of photos in it and regularly do Takeouts every year or so. It takes a while and the format isn't that great (it's a ton of separate zip files), but it does eventually work.

Hasn't Google Spark been doing this for a long while?

Please help, I cannot tell if this is meant to be satirical or not.

I wonder if another approach would be to map the language syntax onto some banned/censored LLM topic(s) such that programs end up as "readable" instructions for topics the LLM refuses to read and/or write, like producing napalm, nukes, bioweapons, etc. Doesn't have to be factually correct instructions, the terminology itself is enough to shortcircuit most LLMs.

(Inspired by recent malware including bioweapon instructions in the source code as a way to shut down LLM-based analysis.)
