Transparent screens doesn’t make much sense for consumer TVs (I know the article indeed points to other use-cases). You still need a black background to facilitate display of black content.

Azure VM host machines are running CrowdStrike...??
More likely crash looping of so many VMs overloading some system with insufficient back pressure, possibly combined with unfortunate cluster management scheduler behavior at this scale of crash looping (e.g. too eager to retry scheduling instances, maybe even on new hosts which causes more infrastructure load).

The problem is that "Show HN:" is typically reserved for new or small projects (by convention, not by law before any pedantic know it alls chime in)
I believe Show HN is also what is suggested in guidelines for non-YC startups that are not allowed to use Launch HN (although some text along with the post would have been nice).

Stop asking for cover letters. The job market is ridiculous and most people need to apply for tens if not hundreds of jobs. We're required to submit our resume, and we're also required to manually enter all the information from our resume into terrible CRM interfaces. On top of that, you want a custom open-ended writing assignment? Get real. If you want a sample of my writing to see how I communicate, ask for that, I can recycle it.
I get it. We're not the only fish in the sea. But neither are you.
Exactly. It’s just leveling the playing field. I’ve been doing generated cover letters based on cv, job post and a few other data sources with manual review + adjustments with a very decent callback rate.
Hmmm it’s a very hard thing to sum up in one piece, not sure I have a good author… I highly recommend skimming Marvin Minsky’s “The Frame Problem” (TL;DR personal assistants will only be helpful once they have intuition), and Picardy writings on Affective computing (TL;DR computers need to simulate our mental states in order to help us effectively). This is a good reminder to look for more lit though!
Philosophy wise, I’m frustratingly forgetting the two people who write about how one’s consciousness can be said to include things like personal journals, record books, calendars, etc. The idea is that you’re offloading part of your mind into artificial forms, in a very meaningful and real way. Will update if I remember their names soon! In the meantime, this is a great skim on the more general topic IMO: https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/identity-personal/
Thanks!
Omnipresent video input is going to be essential for Artificial Self-Instantiation AGIs early next year. Your personal assistant can’t help you if you need to tell it what you’re doing all the time!
Sounds interesting, any reading material you could point to about this?
The same is true in Norwegian, but then they go and ruin it all with "oldemor" = "great grandmother", instead of persisting with e.g. "mormormor".
At least in danish, we have “bedstemor” which behaves likes “oldemor” in being the mother or fathers mom so it’s really that form that is consistent with the system and not the parent-specific forms.

Those specs don’t appear to be updated - isn’t it supposed to get longer range?
Like what’s described here:

Long-range got a bump of about 5% WLTP if I remember then numbers correctly.
