I am in the strictly "not worried" camp, on the edge of "c'mon, stop wasting time on this". Sure there might be some uproar if AI can paint a picture of mohammed, but these moral double standards need to be dealt wi

Since the discussion started in the comments already, I have a similar question: any recommendations for a solution (don’t care if OSS or not) that has the best UX for nontechnical people to assemble some data and reports anyhow? I have Sal

I have listed a few points here in the other comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37596258 as a more general/subjective/emotional note: The very pragmatic take on FP makes code in most cases so much eas

Maybe more like different layers could do different strategies? I can't even imagine what could happen to the BEAM itself if there are the same amount of ressources put on it like in our modern JS engines that have come a loooong way

By this I mean taking the code logic snippets and slap a dedicated new liveview UI on it within your phoenisx app - which isn't too hard since the initial ui in the livebook is pretty bare bones. Yes its rebuilding the whole thing tech

absolutelt hard agree on livebook, but I think thats not an immediate thing every webdev needs. but speaking from recent practice, it is laughably simple and kinda mindblowing for non-experts in this stuff. Like, I klick me a few smart cell

I don't thinks that would be a helpful discussion right here. Any one point there might come someone who points at some external "solution" (package, tool, ...) that might also do the same feature in some way for X, ignoring

I cannot support much in terms of money or time currently, but somehow I'd wish there are ways to speed this up. Sure, sponsoring from big corps comes with their own problems, but maybe that would be an option? There are quite some tha

While I agree with the sentiment, there are two superpowers in the mix for me (pun intended): 1. Erlang / BEAM itself as the runtim with lots of powerful capabilities (what you probably are talking about) - you need to know this stuff

Risk ultimately is a statistics game. There is a certain percent chance of some defined outcome, in this case a bad one. And many factors change the numbers on a daily basis, most of them unknown in advance. I, for one, gladly accept the ri

Is there any good iOS port on HMM3 again? There was something many years ago that probably wasn’t maintained anymore for new iOS versions. Would gladly pay!

confirmed (although I use ecosia instead of bing directly). Now its like: semantic search + realtime needs = google; raw searches is ecosia(bing) and most needs are covered via GPT4 actually. Error debugging + code snippets, general inter

this sounds interesting to try for me. Software engineering alone wears off for me after a while on a project to the point I simply cannot type a single line for it if forced. Managament is where I am really good at coming up with ideas&#x

I recently started to only use liveviews for any page. Yes, I could do a simple controller/template combo, but then after some time comes the feature request for some interactivity, and I have to convert the page to LV manually. Or som

Thanks for sharing the Elixir love! More people should do this openly I think, since it’s still vastly underrated and fellow alchemists seem to be too humble to evangelize!

Stop a second before you go into RSCs. Whatever you want to achieve ultimately is much easier/quicker/scalable done in real fullstack (or classic web-) frameworks! Rails/Django/Laravel/… + Turbolinks/Htmx/

Oh, I totally get your point. And of course habits require energy spending (but less and less over time). But with adhd it’s kind of different game. Like a mental „erectile dysfunction“ - if you *really* are in the mood it can be done, but

Even though not asked for, maybe consider european cities, too, especially the bigger older ones. They are not skyscraper-level breathtaking like many US cities and not as dense - but have lots of advantages (walkable, good public transport

Or maybe they got urged to offset more operational costs - and I would believe that companies already paying for Microsoft things Wille happily pay for OpenAI in addition just to be safe.

If that is your focus, over here (Hamburg, Germany) there also are real (mostly untouched) forests, which also include life. They are not extremely huge but at least many centuries old. One is like 8min from my door, could even take a bus s

there are cities with _lots_ of natural green space, water and thoughtfully gardened recreation parks, though. Enjoying the transition to fall right now living in such a city.

The counter point is that the vast majority of produced stuff is absolute useless garbage no one actually needs, or a gazillion of ripoffs from each other. Consumerism is a plague not only for people but also for the environment. I think we

not an american here. but pure carbs with nothing else (no fiber, vitamins, proteins, fats, ...) is just pure calories without nutrition value... except you're starving.

nutrition labels are a lobbied-for scam. it compares products within _the same category_ against each other. Like, cereals against cereals, and boom: doesn't look too bad! The reality (cereals are pure carbs and not healthy whatsoever)
