Sad times...
- debesyla 1y agoJust to make sure, which part of HN are you looking at? Because at least what I managed to count at this very moment on the front page (page 1), there are 24 non-AI and non-LLM related topics out of 30. Is that rare?
- righthand 1y agoIt’s the weekend, just wait until Monday and you will see at least 50% of the front page is AI-domain related content until Friday afternoon.
- debesyla 1y agoI get the gist, but I waited for a day to check it again: 6 / 29 today (+ 1 hiring ad). A bit more, but still not 50% :D

- tim333 1y agoI see one of your other comments someone says something reasonable about AI you you reply "keep your head on a swivel". It's not in line with HN guidelines really. >Be kind. Don't be snarky. Converse curiously; don't cross-examine. Edit out swipes. Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive,...
