“I can't help but wonder if the US economy backs itself so hard into a corner funding these research labs, and if these research labs receive a bailout, what does that mean for China? Why is China releasing these models for free?” Wild to think about. https://ghuntley.com/warfare/
Eyyyy Exquisite.Monster is featured in the HN Arcade newsletter!
yes im the one that submitted it
Personally, I used Cash App Taxes to do my taxes for free this year (after a nightmare experience with April, via Origin) with plenty of support from Claude.
I applied to work through Turing. This involved being video interviewed by an AI (which was fine, I guess), and then doing a coding challenge while sharing my screen. Not only no AI allowed, but also no docs allowed! Who remembers every language's syntax? Even before AI coding was a thing, I always had a docs tab open!
So, that didn't go great. Hopefully I'll get points for my logic, even if the code is far from runnable.
I have also learned that — while I don't feel jittery — I get nerves in live coding that just straight-up blanks my brain. This is not helping me get hired.
First of all, it's a travesty that job sites don't accept JSON Resume. Imagine uploading it to a Gist and telling all the sites to use it. Simple!
Instead, you've got to painstakingly copy and paste every piece of info into LinkedIn, Indeed, Monster (is that still a thing?), etc.
But what you can do is keep your resume in JSON as your Single Source of Truth and generate HTML/PDF from that. Nowhere near as good, but better than nothing. For a while I was using JSON Resume Registry to generate, but more recently I realized that creating a custom parser is something AIs are really good at.
Oh this is a good idea. Does it make sense to use commas for aliases, as well?
Resisting the impulse to open-source my in-progress AI assistant that is clearly inferior to Clawd.bot, which I discovered this morning. When software is so cheap to make, there's not much point in sharing hobby projects (unless people are using them).
I had fun, at least.
I have a fondness for Jules. The $20/mo account gets you 100(!) sessions a day, and it does the work on its own servers, so you can check on it through out the day on your phone. And it's Gemini 3, which is pretty good!
I found myself doing the same “Keep working, Jules” loop, so I made verne_durand. Give it a checklist, and it will chug-chug-chug its way through it, doing its best to work around Jules' flakiness.
