“it’s a technology that i don’t like therefore its marketing, but I am apparently blind to how HN is a boring marketing outlet in every other respect, too.”

- lordkrandel 5mo agoIt's not that I dislike it. It's just the emptiness of conversations around it. Most discussion is not about the technology itself, or real takes, it's just "blablabla" It used to be more on point, like, 1 year ago? Even the Musk/Twitter times have gone now :D And that rich dude is even more richer now. "Money is a problem for those who don't have it", "Google declaring war on the web", "AI didn't invent slop, it scaled it", "Declining America", "Linus Torvalds says he has a love-hate relationship with AI"... I mean... Ok, but ... who cares?
- consumer451 5mo agoThe good thing about this place is that people such as you and I can communicate, and tell people where to learn more. For me, as someone just trying to learn, these two very recent Dwarkesh pod/lectures have begun to educate me a bit: > Reiner Pope – The math behind how LLMs are trained and served https://www.dwarkesh.com/p/reiner-pope https://www.dwarkesh.com/p/reiner-pope > Eric Jang – Building AlphaGo from scratch https://www.dwarkesh.com/p/eric-jang https://www.dwarkesh.com/p/eric-jang However, I feel you. I wish that HN was a place where each of the links above had hundreds of upvotes, and really good discussion. The both deserve it.
