I did address it: AI in the hands of the right people. Random contributions to bug bounty programs or random PRs for new features come from all corners: expert engineers producing fantastic code; intermediate engineers trying their hardest

AI in the hands of the right people is incredibly powerful. A good team of engineers with AI doing their own bug-hunting on their own code is already far better than any outsider—human, AI, or human-assisted AI—could ever do. A good interna

There's no reason to care that a human spent time on it. Humans are bad at writing code. Garbage PRs and slop have been a problem in open source and bug bounty programs since long before AI came on the scene. We need better AI so that

Selling the fact that you visited a suicide prevention website to anyone who cares to buy it. Google analytics knows exactly who you are the second you access a site that uses Analytics. You don't have to be logged in. You don't e

You say that like there's a difference. You say that like the detail of data that Google Analytics farms is acceptable. You say that like what Google does with the data is acceptable. Just because companies want the data doesn't m

The author seems to be starting with the assumption that humans need to review all AI code in detail and be able to understand and maintain it without the AI assisting. In my experience, this isn't how people are using AI. It starts ou

Seriously. This reads like self-promotion of a bad YouTube channel or something. It's amateurish, full of self-aggrandizement and opinions. This has no place coming from our gov't.

And because people want it more. Economy of scale is off the charts for white vs. brown rice.

Cloudflare's prices are already close to unbeatable. They basically resell at cost. But there's nothing stopping you from doing that if you want.

I was overly-dismissive of the 4GB part. The author's main points were all the other alarmist nonsense, though.

...so what? If Chrome had installed 4GB for some other tooling that most people don't need, would anyone care? My operating system installs with a million default packages that I don't need. Users install applications with optiona

Do enough people buy tickets in advance now that this really indicates anything of value? I'm old and have never pre-purchased a movie ticket in my life. I assume a lot of people do, but the few times I've been to the movies latel

What's the point? You can bootstrap k3s with "curl -sfL https://get.k3s.io | sh -". If you need to do that over ssh it works just fine. If you're doing it on multiple hosts, you should be using Ansible.

Have you never used Claude? It regularly ignores directives, no matter how they're worded or how many times they're repeated. It's also hierarchal. Org-wide rules would be in a higher-level directory than repo rules or compon

There's momentum on this, including from within Congress. I think it's likely in the future. I don't see it happening before at least two more Congressional elections.

Any connectivity at all is telemetry. The connection itself reveals where you are. Navigation reveals where you are down to the meter, along with everywhere you've been, where you're going, speed, etc. What else are you worried ab

I question the claim that electronics are at risk of being too cold in space. It's generally the complete opposite—it's hard to keep electronics from overheating in space, because you can't shed heat by convection and are lim

You're not alone. At my company, we're now making plans to self-host our Git and CICD. I probably can't sell them on Gitea+Drone or Forgejo or another open-source solution (even though it'd suit us well), but we're

I wouldn't call most of those colors green or blue. Most of them looked identical to me as well. I ended up picking arbitrarily for all but the two I thought were distinctly one or the other.

I'm not exactly disagreeing with you. I appreciate the author's stance, and I appreciate the blog post making it to HN. I think the author's stance should be widely adopted. If they had simply stuck their blog post into CONTR

I firmly believe the author's stance should be the default policy of just about every open source project. I don't even write my own code anymore, I sure as hell don't want to deal with your code. Give me ideas. Report bugs.

Congrats on doing this successfully, but your setup is amateur. This would have been infinitely easier if you were using IaC (Terraform/Ansible), containerized applications (that you're not already doing that is madness), and had
