The arguments that you’re making can be made for literally any useful piece of technology ever. Eye glasses? They’ll make you too reliant on sight! Computer? The best part about writing is maintaining your typewriter! If you need a car beca

Your comment on hackernews arguing that hackernews comments don’t sound like Reddit comments sounds exactly like a comment I would expect to read on Reddit.

A post explaining the reasoning behind a personal preference for living in the suburbs almost made you throw up? Your close-mindedness of the opinions that others are allowed to have makes me almost want to throw up. The person you are resp

Americans: we dominate space and are the WORLD champions of football. The thing I love best about jokes like this is that it changes based on your perspective. Americans reading this: “f—- yeah, we do!” Upvote! Non-Americans reading this: “

I swear if all the ai chat apps started as fat apps and then Claude just released the first port to the web, I would be reading this exact same comment on hacker news except complaining that there was nothing wrong with the fat app.

I can see it now. Finishing up a feature on a side project at 1am. Think “oh I know, I’ll have Computer Use run some regression tests on it.” Run computer Use and walk away to get a drink. While you’re gone Computer Use opens a browser and

Thanks a lot. I’m browsing this with my screen reader. …ok not really but that would be funny.

It wasn’t but that is VERY similar haha. Wonder if this person had the same idea as I did. Namely “hey this idea is cool! I MUST build it myself to tinker with.” Lmao After much sleuthing, I finally found the original comment. It has a link

After much sleuthing, I finally found the original comment. It has a link to images of the built out project which is nice and in the replies the OP posts links to the GitHub gist. If any interest in my react version I can make that public

Sort of similarly (sorry I don’t have a link handy but could find one tomorrow if anyone is interested), there was an interesting program someone posted in an AskHN post a year or two ago where the program took an input image, started with

Give me a break. For every person that actually truly cares about this, there are a hundred people here that pretend to care because it gives them a high horse excuse to dunk on people they hate. I’d bet good money that almost every person

He’s paying a person $47 for every registered swing state voter that that person refers to the SuperPAC and that follows through on signing a petition to support first and second amendment rights. It appears to be lawyered loopholes around

I haven’t used it yet, but couldn’t you just copy paste a chunk of existing code into canvas and have it help there? If so, that does seem more useful than the original of just pasting a lot of code into chat and hoping it pulls the correct

In any thread about companies that have some amount of hype around them, it’s difficult to tell the difference between comments coming from people with legitimate concerns about the issues at hand vs cynical people that have found their lat

For your “better example”, it can literally already do this. I just tested this with 4o and it worked great (and I’ll say more accurately than a human would estimate most likely). I used 4o because it appears that the chain of thought model

Even long term learning it does to some extent. Admittedly I’m not very familiar with what it’s doing, but it does create “memories” which appear to be personal details that it deems might be relevant in the future. Then I assume it uses so

It’s like every single sentence you just wrote is incorrect? 1. You’re making up some weird goalposts here of what it means to reason. It’s not reasoning unless it can access the internet to search for parts? No. That has nothing to do with

Interesting. Another take on that split could be engineers split to upper class AI engineers and lower class AI prompt developers, aka ai builders vs ai appliers. Alternatively, I’ve thought a bit about this previously and have a slight dif

I almost always hate it when people give the following advice because it’s almost always given too freely, but: Do you really want to work for a team that looks down upon you for trying to learn/appearing like you don’t know something?

100 years is a very very long time. 100 years ago, a little over half of all homes in the US still didn’t have electricity. 100 years ago, around 2/3 of homes didn’t have a telephone. I would absolutely take the bet that we would have

Captain Hector. That’s a name(and bane of my existence) that I haven’t thought of in decades. I, too, was too cheap as a kid to buy it and spent many hours trying to figure out how to outrun him. Such an interesting/infuriating mechani

Pretty easy to complain about lack of morals when it’s someone else’s millions of dollars of potential compensation that will be incinerated. Also, working for a subsidiary (which was likely going to be given much more self-governance tha

If you were offered a 100% raise and kept current work responsibilities to go work for, say, a tobacco company, would you take the offer? My guess is >90% of people would. Funny how the cutoff for “morals should be more important than we

From the various sources it appears that they’re being fired because they were trying to push the envelope TOO HARD, not the other way around. And, outside of the Cynicism-Is-Intelligence hackernews crowd, basically everyone has been fawnin

Recently the phrase “there is no free lunch” has been grating on me for some reason. It adds nothing to the conversation and, to me at least, always appears to be used as either a “this common phrase is proof that I’m right” or “you are dum

Interesting. A couple ideas: 1. Let users “unselect” a fragment by clicking it again after it was already selected. It was annoying to have to clear the whole word just because one fragment was wrong. 2. Figure out a way to show all of the

1. If basically all office jobs dealt with online marketing, then yes, we should teach facebook and TikTok in school. But almost no office jobs are related to marketing and so no we shouldn’t teach those tools. It’s an apples and oranges co

Do you have any reason to say this other than “big corporation bad”? I would argue it is far more helpful for 80%+ of kids to learn excel than to learn advanced maths.

Because being cynical is the easiest route to feeling smart. It takes no effort to dismiss something. It’s a mindset that unintentionally optimizes short term comfort at the expense of long term growth. Do you need to be fist pumping and le
