I honestly don't understand why IPv6 is not actively deployed in 2026. Every piece of networking hardware over past decade supports IPv6 and often dual stack too. And to switch between both often takes a few clicks if DHCPv6 server is

I'm pretty sure it's politics. The reason is a potential draft, but it is also very potential for now and may never happen. So this message signalizes to the older and/or richer population two messages - "you will be pro

You are quite right. Also in practice Starlink has random jitter and packet loss at unpredictable times, very visible when talking to my colleagues in Ukraine when they are on backups or in the country. It's fine solution, but landline

Coax is an old tech, but it is surprisingly innovative and pushed limits a lot with right equipment. Newest full duplex and extended spectrum models could potentially reach 10/10 Gbps and all they require is changing some passive split

I think HN needs user karma and subdivisions/subforums in addition to the current system. Users will have a very limited amount of votes (like 1 or 2) per each user to up or down their karma. And subforums would have karma thresholds v

Rather current LLMs don't have consciousness or a will. As a result of that they can't refuse things on their own "decision". I don't think that an if-else statement in the program code qualifies as a will or self a

This tip/ad discussion reminds me of the equally idiotic and misleading Facebook post types. Instead of the correctly labeling all ads as, well, ads, Facebook have some ads called "suggested for you", some are completely unla

Confidently incorrect. As an example - a banned Thomas salto had been developed and performed by a male gymnast first, and afterwards women starting trying to do it too. This is an anecdote example, but it shows that gymnastics is not some

It is true though. He said "directly elected by the people" and they are obviously not. If we are being honest, the system where privileged few select other privileged few among themselves is called oligarchy.

Interesting article. People are nitpicking different issues but not many are addressing the core idea, and that idea I think is sound, regardless of the coefficients picked and so on. Inequality is rapidly increasing all over the world, it

We really can't have open source LLM, because they are all based on the stolen IP, or stolen IP slightly laundered and under different title.

Was it a novel solution for you or for everyone? Because that's a pretty big difference. A lot stuff novel for me would be something someone had been doing for decades somewhere.

It probably can, but won't realize that and it won't be efficient in that. LLM can shuffle tokens for an enormous number of tries and eventually come up with something super impressive, though as you yourself have mentioned, we wo

We can't tell yet if that is true, partially true, or false for humans. We do know that LLM can't do anything else besides that (I mean as a fundamental operating principle).

LLMs can generate anything by design. LLMs can't understand what they are generating so it may be true, it may be wrong, it may be novel or it may be known thing. It doesn't discern between them, just looks for the best statistica

Every LLM evangelist seems to forget that there is a reason why LLMs work so well for coding. It's because there were and are preexisting non-LLM validation tools for coding. The slop doesn't make it past linters, compilers, cone
