New best story on Hacker News: Ask HN: Is it just me or GPT-4's quality has significantly deteriorated lately?

Ask HN: Is it just me or GPT-4's quality has significantly deteriorated lately?
637 by behnamoh | 526 comments on Hacker News.
It is much faster than before but the quality of its responses is more like a GPT-3.5++. It generates more buggy code, the answers have less depth and analysis to them, and overall it feels much worse than before. For a while, the GPT-4 on phind.com gave even better results than GPT-4-powered ChatGPT. I could notice the difference in speed of both GPT-4s. Phind's was slower and more accurate. I say "was" because apparently phind is now trying to use GPT-3.5 and their own Phind model more frequently, so much for GPT-4 powered search engine.... I wonder if I use Poe's GPT-4, maybe I'll get the good old GPT-4 back?

My designer is somewhat special, if I do say so myself, as it allows you to put arbitrary designs in the middle area of the QR while still being totally scannable.

Ask HN: How do you not take criticism of your work personally?
581 by molly0 | 580 comments on Hacker News.
I’ve come to realize that I often take constructive criticisms personally. Everything from an unintentionally snarky comment in a PR I’ve made to someone highlight a mistake I’ve made that I probably couldn’t have known about. I see this as one of my major flaws and try hard to mask how I feel. But I just hope to learn to stop feeling bad for honest mistakes.

New best story on Hacker News: Tell HN: Cancelling HP Instant Ink prevents cartridges from being used

Tell HN: Cancelling HP Instant Ink prevents cartridges from being used
484 by wfme | 380 comments on Hacker News.
I bought an HP printer that came with an HP Instant Ink subscription a year ago. The subscription promises to send you ink when you're running low as long as you print within the designated number of pages. I recently changed my card and figured I would let the subscription expire. Fast forward to today. I go to print something and find that the printer is "unable to print" even though there is ample ink left in the cartridges. I press a button on the printer and it spits out a report that states the printer is unable to print, except for printer reports (!). I dig a little (since the error message they show provides no additional information beyond not being able to print) and find this thread [0] in their support forum. It turns out that once the subscription is cancelled or suspended, you are no longer able to use the ink that has been sent to you. Some even report not being able to print with cartridges they bought independently. It turns out that their terms state that you're buying the ability to print x pages and the ink is actually always owned by HP, even when in your possession. This has to be one shadiest and just overall worst product experiences I've come across in a while. Printers have always been a bit of a pain but since when did they have to be near permanently connected to the internet else threaten to cut you off from all of their capabilities.

Show HN: Willow – Open-source privacy-focused voice assistant hardware
513 by kkielhofner | 122 comments on Hacker News.
As the Home Assistant project says, it's the year of voice! I love Home Assistant and I've always thought the ESP BOX[0] hardware is cool. I finally got around to starting a project to use the ESP BOX hardware with Home Assistant and other platforms. Why? - It's actually "Alexa/Echo competitive". Wake word detection, voice activity detection, echo cancellation, automatic gain control, and high quality audio for $50 means with Willow and the support of Home Assistant there are no compromises on looks, quality, accuracy, speed, and cost. - It's cheap. With a touch LCD display, dual microphones, speaker, enclosure, buttons, etc it can be bought today for $50 all-in. - It's ready to go. Take it out of the box, flash with Willow, put it somewhere. - It's not creepy. Voice is either sent to a self-hosted inference server or commands are recognized locally on the ESP BOX. - It doesn't hassle or try to sell you. If I hear "Did you know?" one more time from Alexa I think I'm going to lose it. - It's open source. - It's capable. This is the first "release" of Willow and I don't think we've even begun scratching the surface of what the hardware and software components are capable of. - It can integrate with anything. Simple on the wire format - speech output text is sent via HTTP POST to whatever URI you configure. Send it anywhere, and do anything! - It still does cool maker stuff. With 16 GPIOs exposed on the back of the enclosure there are all kinds of interesting possibilities. This is the first (and VERY early) release but we're really interested to hear what HN thinks!
