Great tool. I recognize at least three names in my neighborhood who received money for a new single member LLC
bt3 · a year ago
I immediately noticed this as well. In many cases, they weren't even LLCs, just names.

Maybe my memory is hazy from that period, but I don't recall the clear call to action to request five-figure loans as an individual, (almost) all of which appear forgiven.

bt3 commented on Ingesting PDFs and why Gemini 2.0 changes everything   sergey.fyi/articles/gemin... · Posted by u/serjester

One major takeaway that matches my own investigation is that Gemini 2.0 still materially struggles with bounding boxes on digital content. Google has published[1] some great material on spatial understanding and bounding boxes on photography, but identifying sections of text or digital graphics like icons in a presentation is still very hit and miss.

Noob question: do they need to re-certify for each new model release?
bt3 · a year ago
Non-scientific answer: if this is anything like ISO27001, it's moreso a certification of processes that presumably govern the creation of all models.

Honest question, but how do we as a society culturally align on who has the right to space in low Earth orbit?

I understand there are treaties that prevent ownership of space in general, but it seems like at some point you could reach such density of satellites that at best, it impairs function, and at worst creates potential collisions.

In what way?
bt3 · 2 years ago
I think he's insinuating that with a figurehead such as Sam Altman, that Sarah and Kevin might be more showpieces than given autonomy to operate.

I've used the Airalo app to buy data-only eSims in multiple regions, and they have global ones also. I would guess it's not as cheap as you'd get if you waited to buy from local providers in arrival, but it's very convenient.

+1 to Airalo. The country specific ones are super cheap. $7 for 2GB or something like that?

I once did the 30-day Global one for I think $20 for 4GB or so. Worked all over Europe + Middle East. Was very impressed.

Prepaid sounds great unless you ever want roaming, it’s either straight up not possible or priced in a way that makes it impractical.

Data-only global eSims are super cheap. Having done a lot of international travel lately, this is undoubtedly the best way to go.

Cheaper and better coverage too.

Hi I’m the maker of the debugbar. If you have any feedback or question, just let me know.

Thanks puuush for posting it.

Hey Julien, very nifty!

Can you comment on the inspiration/ similarity with the Laravel Debugbar [1]? I noticed your GH says "Laravel by Night" :)
