That is true, I was ignoring the severely autistic. It becomes crippling at a certain point, but on the other hand, there are billionaire CEOs on the autism spectrum, who probably got there because they are different.

I wasn't dismissing though, it's a beautiful quote on the problem of hard-to-read books, from one of my favorite essays written by the creator of Hacker News. After I read the author's post I realized the quote elegantly sums

Just curious, ignore me if I'm annoying, but are you navigating the internet entirely without any ability to click a mouse pointer in any way?

I can slog through hard-to-read novels. I can decrypt your linguistic puzzles. I sometimes write in a hard-to-read way, but never on purpose. The only people who write that way on purpose are imposters, who camouflage their lack of ideas in

Well now I know it's fake. LTO drives might be a few bucks per TB but enterprise grade hard drives sure aren't.

Did you really expect to get very far in the game anyway with just arrow keys toggling constant-velocity motion?

I'd be very surprised if they trained at all. Everything I see in the examples is easily generated from AWS / GCP / OpenAI API prompts, in other words, another wrapper in the tsunami of wrappers.

IMO Hacker News needs a new rule to ban this tidal wave of wrapper spam. The rule could be "If your paid website/startup does nothing more novel than common-sense prompting Bing or Bard or Meta would do for free, it doesn't b
