Does anyone know if HSBC's UK app works on it? I've seen inconsistent reports that it does and doesn't. Edit: ignore this - there's a list elsewhere in this thread!

I don't think this ideology and investment strategy will survive this grift. There's too much geopolitical instability and investment restructuring for it to work again. Everyone is looking at isolationist policies. I mean masterc

Saw this one coming and got my personal stuff out. It's running on an old Lenovo crate chucked in my hallway. Work is fucked. 23TB of RAM online. Microservices FTW. Not. Each node has OS overhead. Each pod has language VM overhead. And

That's why my account is so new. Zealot hordes. I grow tired and walk away from HN. Not sure why I keep coming back. I remember when everyone was reading SICP and Clojure and Blockchain were going to burn the universe to the ground. Th

I think no one cares about the truth or building something good any more. It's a meme economy. Tell a story and the numbers go up. Until they don't. Yes my pension is probably going down the same sinkhole with your IRA. Good luck.

On localised context stuff, yeah no. I spent a couple of hours rewriting something Claude did terribly a couple of weeks back. Sure it solved the problem, a relatively simple regression analysis, but it was so slow that it crapped out under

I'll let you know in 12 months when we have been using it for long enough to have another abortion for me to clean up.

Beep boop human thinking ... actually I never wash my car. They do it when they service it once every year!

Why do you think I work there! Emergency clean up work is ridiculous money!

Name one that has at least $200mn ROI over capital investment. Show me the balance sheet for it as well. And make sure that ROI isn't from suddenly not paying salaries.

Well I've just watched two major projects fail which were running mostly on faith because someone read too many "I used 15 AI agents to vibe code..." blog posts and sold it to management. The promoters have a deep technical u

I think this is reality. None of our much-promoted AI initiatives have resulted in any ROI. In fact they have cost a pile of cash so far and delivered nothing.

Perhaps stop entering into saturated markets and using AI to try and shortcut your way to the moon? There's no way any LLM code generator can replace a moderately complex system at this point and looking at the rate of progress this ha

I hate LLMs because you can solve any problem that LLMs can solve in a much better way but people are too stupid, cheap or lazy to put in the effort to do so and share it with everyone. That and the whitewashing it allows on layoffs from fa

Entering the SaaS market is dead because the market is saturated with mature products, not due to anything AI related. I've watched people try and enter the market we're in and fail because they can't build enough product to

Just give me my fucking corners back. I paid good money for them.

I want them to have invested in this already so we don't have this miserable shit to deal with.

I think also everyone needs to understand that Israel are a wedge in the operations of rival Islamic terrorist factions. If they went poof and ceased to exist suddenly then it'd switch straight to Darfur mode out there. It wouldn'

At least they didn't rape and behead them on camera like the opposition. And they were punished for it rather than celebrated and their families paid a wage for life...

As always, experience breeds competence. Much like Ukraine are good at drone warfare, Israel are good at missile defence etc etc...

Yes. This should be held by the London Archives in theory with the rest of the paper records of that sort. They have ability to seal documents until set dates and deal with digital archival and retrieval. I suspect some of this is it's

Bought a few 2TB T7 shield disks last year before the boom. Thank fuck I did it then.

Yeah it really doesn’t matter where you build stuff. The big push to CI is from companies that want to sell you a service to do it. Software should build and test the same everywhere. If you have to use it, CI should only wrap that.
