If we cannot agree that nobody should chant Nazi songs ever again, we have a very different set of values. This has nothing to do with blasphemy, but respect for the millions senselessly killed not even a hundred years ago. Look around you:

This is such a ridiculous contrarian take. Religion is rooted in faith, not empirical evidence. It makes metaphysical claims, whereas there are still a few living witnesses of the Third Reich; it answers existential questions, while Hol

Germany has seen one of the most atrocious crimes we know of; an industrialised genocide facilitated by the state, enabled by a whole society. Everything you try to frame as some perversion of a religion here is an attempt of ensuring the m

You have no clue what you are talking about. Sincerely, a German.

Seconded. And even browsing the actual AEPs, they are presented so confusingly, it's hard to say how it actually works. There's lots of prose, when the first thing I would want to see of a concept is a plain-text HTTP request and

I can’t help but admire the ingenuity.

Good idea actually. You could just make /.well-known an index page

Unfortunately. It's a great solution to a problem lots of tools face. A pity that people trying to establish new standards aren't aware of it aparently.

Assuming a single of his utterances carries deeper meaning would give him too much praise.

His name works like "Bostoner from Boston", so it was reasonable for him at the time to refer to himself as just Bostoner.

They prevent the third world war, until they don’t. Then they will bring mayhem and misery. And with the current lunatics in charge I am not really at ease just because nobody pushed the big red button yet.

Yep. From Putin to Kim Yong Un, everyone is convinced to be the good guy doing bad things for the right reasons.

It certainly rises if the USA votes for an irresponsible crook.

you would need to prove what part of the amounts you paid were due to tariffs, and which were ordinary price changes. All vendors would need to publish that information, and be honest about it. Don't see it coming.

I hope Randall reads HN and sees this, he’d love it.

on that line of argument, nobody would have ever called out the emperor for not wearing any clothes, civilians would not go to peace protests, and nobody would ever improve things by looking at something from another angle.

I absolutely see your point there, but I don't have a better answer. It feels like the table stakes for feature development speed have risen all of a sudden, whether we like it or not.

by 9dev 7mo ago
I'm applying gentle pressure, not forcing everyone to use it. If necessary, I will fight for my team as much as I can, but that's not where we're headed and I would think about switching jobs if it ever is. Having said that

FWIW, I'm responsible for our engineering team, and I'm the one starting to put some gentle pressure on the developers right now. Velocity used to be one of the bigger issues we had: Features used to be in development over weeks,

You're acting as if this was about the DoD cancelling their contracts with Anthropic over their unwillingness to lift constraints from their product which are unacceptable in a military application—which would be absolutely fair and ju

It is absolutely unsafe to depend upon American companies, and I can guarantee you that all over the world, people are actively looking for alternatives already. You never know what happens next, things that used to take years happen in a s

What an absurd stance. So this is okay because the arbitrary rule they applied to retaliate says so? Again, they could have just chosen another vendor for their two projects of mass spying on American citizens and building LLM-powered auton

And yet Anthropic is free to choose who to do business with, including the government. There are countless companies who have exclusions for certain applications, but that does not make them a supply chain risk.

But parent is right, both Lockheed and the pencil maker will have to cease working with Anthropic over this.
659.
by 9dev 7mo ago
I’m not sure if you deliberately choose to not understand the problem. It’s not just that Lockheed can’t put Anthropic AI in a fighter jet cockpit, it’s that a random software engineer working at Lockheed on their internal accounting system
