that is fair —- you’re claiming this person has a pattern of lazy, low-effort comments. I didn’t check and if you’re right, I appreciate you calling it out just as you’re annoyed by low-effort LLM posts/comments, I’m annoyed by low-eff

A) you cannot tell B) you have said nothing productive toward discussion, you’ve just accused someone of using a tool (that you don’t know if they used) I’d prefer actual criticism of the content. (I cannot downvote and would not if I could

the HN feed is an algorithm. YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, etc. also all include “crowd sourced ranking” in their algorithms the difference is the incentive (what the algorithm is optimized for). in most of these feeds it’s for ad revenue, he

this feels incomplete without mentioning why everything is trying to keep our attention: paid digital advertisement. remove the incentive for the slopfest and “the algorithm” becomes far less of a problem (see HackerNews)

similar for me —- also how do you get the proper double dashes —- anyway, I’d love to be able to run CLI agents fully local, but I don’t see it being good enough (relative to what you can get for pretty cheap from SOTA models) anytime soon

it’s also for (typically) longer context you don’t always want the agent to have in its context. if you always want it in context, use rules (memories) but if it’s something more involved or less frequently used (perhaps some debugging meth

ask, receive! https://github.com/anthropics/skills not ranked with comments but I’d expect solid quality from these and they should “just work” in Codex etc.

In my experience, people who bombard threads with insults based on the technology people use (a specific set of neural networks in this case) are…well, don’t have much better to do in life. you openly advocated for insulting and bullying pe

I like that analogy a lot. FWIW I also find myself learning a lot more at a higher rate with LLM usage

they called me an idiot in the other thread for pointing out AI is broader than just LLMs (after they called everyone that uses AI an idiot) lol they’re clearly very angry and bitter, and I believe this is not the first account they’ve made

I just wanted to clarify only some neural networks are bad :) technical precision of language is important to avoid confusion sorry you’re so angry though. best of luck

it’s the “agentic harness” — they have shipped tons of great features for the DevEx, but it’s the combination of better models (Sonnet 4.5 1M, now Opus 4.5) and the “prompting”/harness that improves how it actually performs again I’m n
