They don't have to become self conscious to want to write more memory efficient software or grow.

Your pH example actually proves the opposite. pH 7 is not neutral because it happens to sit halfway between 0 and 14. pH is not inherently limited to that range at all. Sufficiently concentrated solutions can have pH values below 0 or above

Why would they cut corners? Activated carbon isn’t expensive.

Tbh this wording actually made Google Translate render it as “GitHub’s new Git platform.” I got confused and had to look at the original English text to understand what it meant.

I personally don't care whether a piece of writing was AI-generated as long as it's useful or insightful. However there's only 10% of AI-generated writing that is worth reading. If some articles convince me that there's

dsh-claude-ux is a plugin for DeepSeek Harness that recreates Claude-style regional risk controls and “autonomous” conversation termination, using signals like timezone, language, proxies, IP/WebRTC checks, abuse detection, and optiona

I agree that they’re evil and there are legitimate reasons to use ad blockers. But ("But" is such an unwelcomed word here) we need a better business model than ads to support free content creators, if we want to push back against

If you live in a developing country and frequently make or receive cross-border payments in currencies other than USD, you’ll understand that's not the case. The fees and compliance burden of traditional financial system still represen

Nice read! Though it feels a bit strange that "I have exceeded the allowed number of requests. (500 times)" when I first clicked the article and I'm pretty sure I don't share the ip of my self-hosted VPN with anyone.

This is the kind of “better internet” I want. Compared with ads, I’d much rather have a 0.05 dollar paywall. But for this to work, the technology has to be built on crypto micropayments. The total cost and friction of traditional payment sy

1. Mirror life may be able to evolve catalysts that alter the chirality of non-mirror organic molecules. 2. Mirror chloroplasts may be able to use achiral small molecules to form mirror biological macromolecules, like normal chloroplasts.

Managing 1000 biology PhDs is easier than managing 10,000,000 middle school students.

The raw materials for photosynthesis and nitrogen fixation (water, carbon dioxide, and nitrate) are achiral. Maybe mirror lives can start from scratch like our ancestors.

But advertising is the source of funding that many content creators rely on to make a living... Of course I don’t want Meta and Google profiting from mind-manipulating ads, but where is better business model? Crypto micropayments?

This research is way toooo shallow. He really should go check out linux.do or nodeseek.com — token resale economy there is truly breathtaking. Edit: https://vectoral.com/blog/token-relay-market mentioned in comment.

This is a very insightful article. That said, I think it has a potentially fundamental blind spot: it largely neglects the role of external information in constructing the developing nervous system itself. The article treats information arr

> They are mostly very aware that they cannot speak freely. That's correct, and as I said that's one of the reasons Chinese people bypass GFW. The last paragraph in my previous comment may not have been clear enough. What I mea

"half-priced batch API" kind of thing has been around for a long time.

Can't find a single person in a Chinese tech company who doesn't know how to bypass GFW.

It *is* a small subset, but I don’t see what’s so surprising. HN is just an ordinary tech community; it’s not surprising for people from any tech company to show up there.

Sorry for the off topic question. Why is "being on hn a long time + working at deepseek" "seems pretty uncommon" to you?

As an indie dev, I'm not really in a position to judge Delta's potential for large-scale collaboration. Maybe Delta will end up being great for teams of all sizes. But I really wish they'd put more care into Zed's core e

Who would take the responsibility of misjudgements then?
