One could flip your post to say “AGI is coming” and be claiming the opposite, and it would be equally lacking insight. This is not “critical” to remember. There are interesting and well thought out arguments for why the AGI is not coming wi

Why do you believe this? Do you know researchers actively on the cusp or are you just going off vibes?

Mind elaborating a bit on why you migrated away from django ninja? Just curious, I’ve been using it for some small side projects and have enjoyed it.

What are you even talking about? Pure American exceptionalism. Take a look at this and think about what it means: https://www.nature.com/nature-index/research-leaders/2025/in...

Do you think it does? Is that such an absurd take?

The word “terrorist” is strictly a political designation, one that allows for dehumanizing and condemning one’s enemies. Israel’s pager attack on Lebanon has all of the hallmarks of a terrorist attack, but the west won’t call it as it is be

I’m sorry but this is asinine. All of the “positive interactions” you listed are literally propaganda events to increase the palatability of the US military and encourage enrolment.

Would you want your own app usage available to other people? I’m going to guess not. This is a gross request, not surprised you’re using a throwaway account, as you seem to know this is a shameful thing to ask for.

I’m a software engineer in the biotech space. I haven’t worked with RAG though, maybe I’m underestimating the complexity.

Not to take away from this or its usefulness (not my intent), but it is wild to me how many pieces of software of this type are being developed. We’re seeing endless waves of specialized wrappers around LLM API calls. There’s very little in

Did you even read the article before making your comment? It is actually data driven like you are demanding, while your own comment is not beyond the most basic sense. A superficial count of models below $25,000k MSRP is not adding to the d

Comparing one model (which actually isn’t even the same model) over time doesn’t make sense. Also you’re moving the goalposts here, $28,350 base is not “cheap”

Capitalism seems to be an optimizer for this type of “efficiency”. How far can we squeeze people for their labour before they are dying in the streets or rioting?

This is just war crime denying spam. Words do not matter in the light of what the IDF actually did.

I tried using this to learn some basics of Mandarin Chinese. It was frankly a disastrous UX. I have no idea how to begin a useful lesson, the AI just started talking at me in full on Mandarin and asked me questions in Mandarin. How am I sup

You’re free to post whatever contrarian take you want. Be the change you want to see instead of complaining.

The wealthy are already engaged in eugenics via IVF embryo selection. There are several American startups whose clientele are mainly rich SV types that want to optimize the genetics of their children.

Really? Creationists on HN? There are mountains of peer reviewed research articles you can read to see that evolution is real and evidence based. To claim otherwise is idiocy.

Was it the Biden administration doing this? Are you sure this wasn’t happening at the university or state level?

You’re getting downvoted because of your childlike naïveté and/or willful ignorance. There is no hidden “very good reason” lurking somewhere. They are slashing and burning the federal government.

Why do you dread this? It’s entirely possible that Jai is not good enough to compete, no?

Funny to read these comments when China is easily dwarfing all other nations in solar capacity and technology. You can make these dismissive comments all you want, but China is going to be at the forefront of “green” energy production this

This is a marketing gimmick and a frankly fraudulent claim. They edited a few genes in a wolf genome and called it a job well done ready for marketing. However, this is not a true recapitulation of the ancient genome of the dire wolf, rath

Where are you based? I’ve never heard this particular whinging before, the wolf populations across most of North America have been completely obliterated.

I really dislike your suggestion to eliminate the timer. You frame it like it’s objectively the better choice since you’re a professional - however it’s not. It’s a design decision that leads to a sense of urgency that many players enjoy. G

It seems like Andreas abandoned SerenityOS and Jakt with it, and moved on to Ladybird. The language died with this move. The project was always very clearly “for fun” so I don’t see any harm or foul here. I also got the sense that there was

Absolutely appalling that our precious Elon is being criticized on this holy bastion of tech, HN. Truly this is a sign of a total cultural collapse. Perhaps our ilk is better suited not participating in social media at all.
