Get Gemini answer and tell ChatGPT this is what my friend said. Then put ChatGPT answer to Claude and so on. It's a cheat code.

I did this today it was amazing. If I would have had time I would try other models as well. Great tip thanks

I see a post like this every time there are news about ChatGPT or OpenAI. I'm probably being paranoid but I keep thinking that it looks like bots or paid advertisement for Gemini

I think people like me just enjoying sharing when something is working for them and they have a good experience. It probably gets voted up because people enjoy reading when that happens

I have been using chatGPT a ton over the last months and paying the subscription. Used it for coding, news, stock analysis, daily problems, and a whatever I could think of. I decided to give Gemini a go when version three came out to great reviews. Gemini handles every single one of my uses cases much better and consistently gives better answers. This is especially true for situations were searching the web for current information is important, makes sense that google would be better. Also OCR is phenomenal chatgpt can't read my bad hand writing but Gemini can easily. Only downsides are in the polish department, there are more app bugs and I usually have to leave the happen or the session terminates. There are bugs with uploading photos. The biggest complaint is that all links get inserted into google search and then I have to manipulate them when they should go directly to the chosen website, this has to be some kind of internal org KPI nonsense. Overall, my conclusion is that ChatGPT has lost and won't catch up because of the search integration strength.

>Currently, the data suggest that reduced labor supply is likely the key driver

It's interesting as far as people I know looking for jobs, they're supply ... and having a hard time finding jobs. Reduced supply you'd hope you'd get a job.

Granted the article addresses this both in the types of jobs and:

>The stability of the unemployment rate masks effects of the low-hiring, low-firing labor market.

I do wonder, if this continues and a sense of economic slowdown or worse continues, would lowering a rate really fire up hiring? I know small businesses who can't eat /dance around tariffs like big companies, some are seriously terrified / facing hard decisions, others fine.

My read on this is most jobs growth in raw numbers occurs in the lower pay brackets. In those pay brackets supply has decreased and the people doing the hiring have not raised wages. This means these jobs aren't being filled and the work isn't getting done. This leads to lower jobs numbers and keeps unemployment rates stable.

Have done some of these recently - Smaller teams are better value/$ spent [Confirmed]

- More frequent releases accelerate learning what has real value [No improvement]

- Limiting work in progress, solving one problem at a time,increases delivery throughput [Continued]

- Cross-functional teams experience fewer bottlenecks and blockers than specialised teams [Confirmed]

Empowered, self-organising teams spend less time waiting for decisions and more time getting sh*t done [Confirmed]

Additionally, smaller teams 1-3 engineers per project who are empowered are much happier. Side effect was time spent on process, tickets, communication dropped dramatically. Time spent on creating and confirming increased.

In a large organization solving your own blockers can be the difference between releasing next week and releasing next quarter. More frequent releases only help in a business where users adopt new features quickly.

I never stopped developing. After getting laid off in April 2023 after 13 years as first a full stack then mobile dev, I just started working on things that interested me. I did apply and interview a few times, but I started to realize that pushing 50 and being as cynical as I now am, I'm pretty much unemployable as an IC.

So I released my application to the App Store this month, and while savings are dwindling, things are starting to finally move into the other direction now.

Thank you! Really happy to know that it's working well for you -- we made the additional searches feature exactly for this type of use case.

If you want more feedback, I work in software engineering and I'm happy to chat outside of HN.

This is amazing! Curious how it compares to openai deep research, did you try?
tenpoundhammer · a year ago
I was not willing to pay $200 just to try deep research. But I'm happy to except donations if the people want a comparision :)

Paid for it and tried out the full experience, beats anything else I've tried by a wide margin.

My prompt,

"I'm considering buying stock in the company with symbol NU. The most important thing to me is answering the question, is the stock likely to rise in the future. Please help create a list of questions that will help me to understand the likely hood of this. Also please help to anwser those questions. Please highlight the global economic environment for the company. Any unique challenges and unique advantages. Finally let me know what others think of it"

Results: I know this stock well all though I'm not a pro. It nailed all of the relevant aspects and hits the analysis right on for everything I know about it. Pulled lot's of helpful resources and most importantly the information was timely enough to be relevant. The timely part is where other LLMS have failed miserably. I've gotten good analysis from other LLM products but they have always been way out of date which makes them useless.
