I don't particularly care about the US or US politics since 2016. Unless you invade a country again and we have to deal with the Fallout for years to come, that is. For example: I have banned all news about Trump administration from my

AI is not a cult, HN regarding AI is. It's boring and it's viral and if you refuse to participate, there are still people annoying you with their beliefs. It's a fucking tool, like a fucking shovel.

It's a cult. And frankly, I am not interested in churches or cults.

So they have followed the rainbow and found some pots of gold... And then they all lived happily ever after. Apart from the peasants of course.

Yes! I have the great luck to work in many different stacks as a freelancer. One of them is Elixir. While I am on this project for just half a year and not too many hours per week, I can say: I absolutely love this language. It reminds me o

That's so funny. At university we didn't use Python, but mostly Java, C++, C a bit of Haskell and some even more esoteric ones. Sure thing I got exposed to Python, but to this day, I don't like it. All that whitespace typing

Spatial got me hooked, but then I saw the demo... That's like the Antithesis of what I want to do and why I am on niri... But to each their own I guess.

True, but then I expect them to betray me at any junction and I'll gladly do the same.

I am, but I am no part of any shovel cult.

I am not managed by anyone:p

As is the hype. You know, shovels are useful, they are just more useful to the shovel manufacturer than the gold diggers. But in the end it's a cool tool that made it way easier to dig holes and tend to your garden!

Exactly this. I don't care about the US more than about Russia or China these days. They are definitely not our allies anymore.

It's a good thing then, that the AI hype is dying outside of ycombinator, the silicon valley and the US

The stdlib is the place where good ideas go to die. And then you have httplib3 followed by httplib4. In other words: I highly prefer the Rust approach. It doesn't matter a lot whether I rely on the stdlib or another dependency to me. I

What if there was some malicious code within the 1 million previous lines? The problem is trust... About nobody has the time and the resources to read 1 million lines of code, keep everything in their head and derive whether there are probl

Take them out of the loop. Unless they are not human.

It's very ironic and the irony hasn't passed me, yup. Also: Super happy that people finally see AI for what it really is... just another tool.

Is anyone (here, so tech people) still using Google for searching? I've ditched them about a decade ago, when the results started to become worse and worse. I haven't opened them willingly since then. Only when I do something in C

Y'all have become these super annoying human captchas where I have to proof that I am actually a human being who writes their own thoughts in their own words, just because you feel like accusingly saying: "But you used AI for writ

The US are an oligarchy with the PR department being instructed to claim they are thr bastion of free speech though, so ex falso quodlibet.
