The post is a work of an actual hacker who knows what they're doing. Zero mention of "I used Claude" or "Used AI" to understand what is needed for accomplish this task.
This is exceptional work. Unlike the low-effort slop posts I see here on "Show HN".
- bigyabai 7mo agoAh, the Procrustian definition of "real hacker", where using AI disqualifies you but using Github pages is considered only a minor infraction. The build-in-public era of hacking has really turned this field into an influencer economy.
- jasaldivara 7mo agoWhats wrong about Github pages?
- dewey 7mo agoA real hacker would obviously never use a Microsoft product, or worse, post on a VC funded web forum!
- bigyabai 7mo agoAbsolutely nothing. People protest Github to virtue signal their anti-Microsoft sentiment and fill a hole in their personality. Similarly, "zero mention of AI" is just a surface-level observation that says nothing about how the project was completed and everything about your own insecurities defining the word hacker.
- blkhp19 7mo agoI used plenty of non-agentic AI to help understand the XNU codebase, and also research various topics. It wasn't always correct, but it certainly helped at times! My philosophy for this project was to use it as a learning tool - since that was kind of the whole point of me attempting this :)
- dirasieb 7mo agolooks like they did use AI, swing and a miss for the luddites once again!
