I agree there is some great content here, and there’s definitely a lot less nonsense compared to reddit. I do think some of the smaller subreddits are just as good as here though

How is it not racist to showcase your black employees for appearances and then turn around and condescend them?

It’s always amusing to me that people are shocked HN isn’t actually that much smarter than any other internet community. The relative level of pretentiousness though is off the charts

Oh I was looking for Alexander’s comments, I didn’t realize Lucy was a founder. Yeah that’s pretty bad.

That’s not what being forcibly shut down means. Somebody disagreeing with you isn’t oppression.

Thats not true at all. Just because you don’t feel like you can follow the guidelines, doesn’t mean it’s impossible. For example, I think your comment is ridiculous coming from a grown adult I assume, but I am still able to reply in a compl

I think you’re underestimating how hard what you’re describing is. GPT-3 can mimic the language of reasoning but that doesn’t mean it’s capable of higher order reasoning.

In my experience I’d say just open one, try to read it, and move on to something else if you can’t decipher it. Eventually one will suit you, or none of them if you’re like me :p

This is the most childish excuse I’ve ever heard. Imagine putting yourself and others at risk because you feel like you’re being forced to stay safe in a pandemic.

I had never heard of Randy Pausch or seen this before but I’m glad I have now. I thought I was just being inspired. When he mentioned his legacy of Alice though I was shocked since that was my first exposure to programming when I was 12. Th

Ok so? OP never said his friend was racist. I don’t understand why you feel the need to split hairs on this point.

It would be very rude to say something like that to your friend. He effectively called a whole race ugly in his eyes. We don’t know the race mentioned but I think you can imagine a context where that would be considered more offensive and s

Is it not a good quote then? Is there nothing to learn from Gandhi if every time he is brought up we have to bring up his opinions he held in his early twenties. Of course not everyone held them but most British educated lawyers in South Af

If you’re pathetic like me I guess. I only work at IBM on a bunch of Salesforce bullshit, so I find working on AI at AWS to be pretty impressive. Trust me I know there’s tiers to this stuff as someone who hasn’t passed interviews at Google

As a fellow 23 year old Indian American who grew up in the tri-state area this hit way too close to home. I like to think I learned a lot of the lessons you’ve eschewed during my time in grad school right now but I caught myself sleuthing

What was the purpose of sharing that quote then, if not to disparage the sentiment? To disparage whoever said it? Do you know when that quote was made, as Gandhi’s views (which were a product of his time and upbringing) evolved over the spa

That's really cool! My Deep Learning class used Captum for our assignments with GradCAM activations; it's a very convenient tool for interpreting model activations on images.
