I've used whereby in the past on a free account, I've found it easy enough for anyone to use. I stopped using them because they now limit free accounts to 30 minute meetings.
No you haven’t, because it was published today. What you’ve seen are past articles from the same author on the subject that all share the same "The Future of Everything Is Lies, I Guess:" prefix.
Yes. Anthropic is burning much of the goodwill they built up in contrast to OAI, and I personally am taking it as a sign to limit dependencies. Luckily for me I am not at all dependent on frontier models, and it's increasingly apparent that nobody else is too.
It looks like the spreadsheet-touchers over at Anthropic won out over the brand leaders, which is too bad as good will can be a trench if you don't abuse your customers.
I think on HN we always underestimate how much momentum matters. Anthropic has so much clout and mindshare that even if they continue burning goodwill and everyone on HN ditches Claude Code and stops recommending it, they will still be revenue leader for years to come. Those enterprise contracts aren’t month-to-month.
"One analyst. 500+ open sources across 15 languages. AI-augmented research that synthesizes what would take a team weeks. Human judgment on every conclusion."
Given the dependence our society now has on the internet, it's bonkers to me that more VCs aren't rethinking their investment strategy. Privacy is not some niche concern anymore, check out the response to Flock for example.
The majority of the artist responses were "hard no" in 2024. There's no way the artist demographic such a service would appeal to would be on board with anything even tangent to AI in 2026 (even done ethically) where the professional liability far exceeds the potential revenue.
Most artists I have spoken to don't believe it's possible to do this AI stuff ethically
Maybe they're wrong but I tend to agree. Or even if it is possible to do it ethically, it still never will be done that way because there's just too much money in behaving unethically
In a world where artists’ livelihood depends on their output, yeah. But that's not a force of nature. Our society is making the choice of letting them starve for not producing enough art. We need to decouple this. UBI now.
This is great and pocket sized, but the keyboard is rather small. Very simple text based file system, I haven't tried their software and just use the microSD. Fits in a pocket neatly which is great.
Really nice handwriting system, terrible sync software. Probably these cannot be separated, which is a shame. The included keyboard is great. I will probably sell this.
This is great because it runs Android so it doubles as my book reader too. Handwriting is useless, and you have to buy your own keyboard which is annoying since its so expensive, and the case options are highly limited. That said, I can use my apple magic keyboard with it so it's fairly natural, but the whole setup is rather bulky.
This is a bit clunky but offers a big screen, which is nice. I don't trust the software on their eink readers and whatnot, but it's fine for desktop use.
Happy to answer questions and eager to hear what other HN folks are doing on this front.
What's the refresh like on that monitor? Could it be used for terminal-based work or is it too slow? I have a boox go tablet for reading oreilly and honestly the device is so slow and clanky that I've only turned it on maybe a dozen times
Not a computer per se, but I've been using the Mudita Kompakt e-ink phone. It's limited because it's small and degoogled but I've managed to get everything I need other than uber on there.
The remarkable 2 is entirely separable from the cloud bullshit. You have root SSH access out of the box and the community has several sync replacement options for most needs.
You can also install a terminal emulator and do all the usual linux CLI stuff like vim and SSH on a pleasant e-ink display.
The keyboard does have a good feel, but I hate the layout and it's a bit too fiddly.
Yeah, forget that. Switching the system over to Linux access kills most of its features and is hidden be hind scary screens, including loss of warranty. It is only your typically greenwashing like, “ we are open source” marketing badge. The community is also almost dead, probably because of that.
Keyboard is also unusable, it doesn’t even have enough characters for markdown.
This is actually quite an insightful comment into the mindset of the tech set vs. the many writers and artists whose only 'boilerplate redundant code' is the language itself, and a loose aggregate of ideas and philosophies.
Probably the original sin here is that we started calling them programming languages instead of just 'computer code'.
Also - most of your work is far more than mere novelty! There are intangibles like your intellectual labor and time.
Looks like jitsi, whereby, and signal are all viable alternatives – anyone have something better, or feedback on the above?
