For me definitely the worst regression was the system prompt telling claude to analyze file to check if it's malware at every read. That correlates with me seeing also early exhausted quotas and acknowledgments of "not a malware" at almost every step.

It is a horrible error of judgement to insert a complex request for such a basic ability. It is also an error of judgement to make claude make decisions whether it wants to improve the code or not at all.

It is so bad, that i stopped working on my current project and went to try other models. So far qwen is quite promising.

I’m familiar with postal services both in Poland and Japan and I like the Japanese solution even more - most of the new buildings have package lockers operated by the building owner and independent from the delivery service. Everyone could put the packages there and my building would notify me about a waiting package when I entered.

From experience of traveling to many countries and talking with people about food - not everyone is interested in it. I've heard many bad recommendations or people surprised I know the dishes they have never tried. And that's okay.

It’s actually the other way around. Going through chicken pox as a kid increases the chance to have a shingles as it is caused by the same virus being dormant in your body.

When infected the first time you can have chicken pox as an adult.

Amoxicillin is an antibiotic and can be given for the risk of opportunistic infections but it doesn’t treat a viral disease by itself.

I always understood that TradeLens is something that could be built with a simple database but they used Blockchain to hype up potential partners to sign up.

I’d expect to see at least some of these cynical solutions actually work in practice. So interesting they decided to shut it down, instead of just walking back the blockchain part.

It would be a great idea for you to buy Bloomberg and Eikon and actually play with them before making the 90% claim.

From cheaper alternatives, how does it compare to TradingView?

I use it and I like it - I don’t miss any data on equities, but economy data is quite limited - it has series from FRED so for example US employment or very basic mortgages data but no more good sources.

The salary model of Uber doesn't give its contractors enough information to estimate how much they will earn.

If they had offered flat 4.40$ rate probably noone would take the job.

Would people take the job if they were presented with a distribution of hourly rates among already employed workers?

It's just the snowball effect. Every post about SR-71 encourages more people to learn something about it and that sometimes results in another post to HN.

The webpage mentions 915 MHz (America) / 868 MHz (Europe) radio. This is a part of ISM band and the most popular radio for low power internet of things. There are some microcontrollers with those radios integrated, for example TI CC430. As far as I recall, there is no standardised protocol stack on top of that.
