Careful. If you acknowledge this provable fact you just invite hordes of specs-table-rotted gigahertz-chasers to post replies that completely miss the point.

okay, so let’s get this straight: even though there are seemingly quite a few people here that clearly understand what is being said. However, the fact that YOU specifically either genuinely do not understand this / have never come acr

See, you’re just saying what they’re saying, but with emotive, thought-terminating language. Again, it’s easier to complain. Have you been living under a rock for your entire life? Have never ever been involved in a decision being made abou

Take this vague, emotive, thought-terminating language to your journal or a pub rant or something. What does this even mean? Only one entity in this interaction has free will and it’s not the LLM. “Humanity reliant on another technology” is

What if one’s entire existence doesn’t revolve around the role they play in capitalist systems? Comments like this make it blindingly apparent that this is just a VC’s web forum.

I’m glad you started your long comment the way that you did, because It made it so easy to discount. I find AI-assisted development to be quite enjoyable. I’ve logged many, many years of full-time development prior to LLMs hitting the scene

You are too young to even remotely reliably assert cause. Things get less fun when you do them more often, and you’ll be facing the realities of ‘professional’ development, if you’ve even started doing that yet. Be careful to not falsely at

You are trying to save face. You didn’t answer the question. You don’t ‘speak for a tribe of Real Developers That Use Vim’ or whatever. You just aren’t qualified to answer but couldn’t help getting on your soapbox. I know a couple of vim us

It literally doesn’t answer the question. “I don’t qualify to answer” isn’t an answer. Don’t tell me to “read deeper”. We are all reading the same comment. You aren’t more intelligent than anyone else here.

This is patronising. We know what macros are. There’s benefit in general, adaptable tools, even if some tasks can be accomplished with something more rudimentary. That’s not the point. Hell, the software that you’re so proud of writing with

It doesn’t “make no goddam sense”. it’s just not convenient for you. There are so many potential “valid” reasons. Licensing? Bad optics?

Dude, what? You’re upset about mandatory helmet laws? What next? Are you going to complain about seatbelts? Being a libertarian is one thing, but acting like there is no good justification from those whom you oppose, is just… dishonest. Bi

It’s always “safe to ignore” a blog because there’s seldom actual negative consequences for doing so. If you want to use such a silly, absurd heuristic, feel free to pay the opportunity cost. Pointless nostalgia-driven web surfing at its fi

Absolutely nothing you said refutes anything in the comment you’re replying to. You are just reiterating “I’m angry and this is stupid”. Go write in your journal or something. It’s impossible to engage with someone who isn’t engaging thems

Hi. Last I checked, one of the Hacker News rules isn’t “only have serious discussions regarding technical assessments. Failure to comply hereby entitles random people to fly off the handle and get very defensive”.

OK, so they’re furries. I love animals. I’ve never once thought: “these humans in this picture should be replaced with anthropomorphised animals”. This is peak “I read it for the articles”.

The prevalence of calling software development “engineering” was 100% a con job by either self-important nerds or the companies pandering to them in tight job markets.

Intellectually dishonest comment. Kim Dotcom got done for illegal distribution. It’s not about “illegally downloading”. You can pretend all you want that it’s the same thing as these AI companies, but it’s not. It certainly very well may b

Have you been sleeping under a rock for 30+ years, don’t know what antitrust is, and still feel confident enough to shout about it in a comment? The law isn’t just “what you happen to intuitively think is right”, especially in a jurisdictio

One doesn’t “get out of the way” for competitors, one is beaten by them. You just don’t know how to scroll past something you don’t like instead of going to the comments to complain about it.

That…isn’t the same thing at all, because your recount is factually incorrect. I’m not even a Tailscale user and I know that this isn’t equivalent.

You do not know what unacceptable means. Everyone that uses or buys Windows “accepts” it. What you mean is that you don’t agree.

Needing to resort to pinch and zoom for everything is an indicator of bad accessibility. HN “supporting” pinch and zoom is more like… HN not being responsive and/or being good about dynamic text size.

* HN reader apps have existed forever. * There is a public API. ^ The incentives for “getting angry” aren’t there, like they were for Reddit. Think critically.
