Sweet! Well-expressed, and well-explored. It's easy to setup an interface that makes search a bit easier still, including showing you a list as you interactively filter history, with fzf, [gh-fzf].
Examples of what users use most frequently, the key-bindings.{bash,zsh} has history key binds [arch-fzf]. The developer, junegunn, writes about it more generally, and all the other fun ways you can apply it [dev-fzf].
For a few years, I wrote history files per shell-spawn, and loaded a batch of history from recent days to keep fresh what's in the immediately searchable history.
Nowadays, I've just offloaded that to atuin [atuin], which I install from brew or with cargo binstall. Much less configuration, and now get to quickly explicitly switch between history lists filtered as: global, host (you can sync among hosts), session, directory, -- I don't remember what filter session+ means.

Looks like it locks the number when you first load. I had it open for 30 minutes, with just 3 fish, but after reading your comment, re-opened to find 3 dozen.
Choice about busyness would be nice.

Uh oh, your opinions are merely part of the funnel to the sex cult. Can we really trust them? /s

Nice to be reminded of the collection, and another way to present it.
I want to view the boxes, especially after filtering, grouped near eye level and seeing the faces not just the spines.
Nice to see VR (potential for XR), cool use!

The overriding of click behavior is quite annoying. 30 years of browser user-agent behavior.
Next, Vercel, already handle this correctly. It takes special effort to violate "least surprise" here. Cmd-click on a link, should open it in a new tab.
It does appear to be an issue with SimpleAnalytics, now Adobe's,
onclick="saAutomatedLink(this, 'outbound'); return false;"
Good sites, good blogs, *don't override onclick for links.* Or handle it correctly. I'll leave an issue on the github.
Between your footer, and dotfiles repo, OP does seem to appreciate standards & norms, in principle.

> Should you use RSA in production always make sure to use numbers which are at least 512 Bit / 64 Byte long.
512-bit RSA has been breakable, by academics, since before this millennium.

Enterprises moving slow, or preferring to remain on old technology that they already know how to work...is received wisdom in hn-adjacent computing, a truism known and reported for more than 3 decades (5 decades since the Mythical Man-Month).
Sounds like someone who's responsible, on the hook, for a bunch of processes, repeatable processes (as much as LLM driven processes will be), operating at scale.
Just in the open, tools like open-webui bolts on evals so you can compare: how different models, including new ones, perform on the tasks that you in particular care about.
Indeed LLM model providers mainly don't release models that do worse on benchmarks—running evals is the same kind of testing, but outside the corporate boundary, pre-release feedback loop, and public evaluation.

Congratulations! I’ll be interested to see the next steps in alignment. Do you plan to start selling access, or collect more data to train bigger & better? What tasks or benchmarks are your biggest guide stars, or what was unexpectedly tricky—a few are hinted in the post.
It would be pretty interesting to see activation maps for the encoder on video, confidence building to see the compression derived from so much training.

I would appreciate it. It’s such a joy to use, to share, and (admitting I haven’t) nice to see & share the code & configuration to feed algolia, on a more serious scale of us than I’m likely to use in a hobby project or find/grok/share another public example with code + data.

It's good FUD. You re-iterate their talking points. (Also, no CTA, no takeaway, just "worry!")
As others have said, the data has to be publishable to be useful. We do have data export laws. The format is known to be ready to use interoperably, not some private schema--atop the PBC commitment, which will at least have moderate legal costs if not a guarantee. It has unequivocally set a new high bar.
They seem pretty locked in to doing what they committed to. The day may come when they turn. It may come first by friction, but the turn has to be pretty complete, because the data is pretty open. What's needed to view it, use it at all, is pretty close to what's needed to host it.
"The site whose value prop is sharing your posts and data with other apps may stop sharing your posts and data with other apps." Yeah, it's possible. It's also possible they just close.

The math don't math.
$/TB, TB, and $ don't interconvert. Most obvious when you sort by $/TB. Sloppy slop.

Well, Twitter/X gets this wrong too. Pretty often jumps away from what you're viewing, especially on the nav-in to a thread or nav-out from a thread actions.
Looking for contracting. ML, ML infra.
Considering building —- more fluid messaging service.
