Good on them.

Examples are so because they’re just that. Nuance belongs in actual implementation. I guess what you’re saying is you like reading fully fledged code, almost like an apprentice. I would never think to delegate that responsibility to a next

Modern lithium batteries or solar panels for that matter don’t get magiced out of nothing. Those materials are mined also. At least forethought is given to handling/disposal for nuclear since it’s a known issue.

You should investigate how you’re storing & retrieving data. A database system is going to abstract away various things. If you need direct control of primitives then there’s always fopen as SQLite says.

Linq, in dot net, is a real life working example of what you’re talking about and it’s agnostic of how the storage is structured. That said I still rarely use the but the basics of Linq. I just don’t see the upgrade of what you’re solving h

I’d argue you’ve got a very VC focused view of coding.

Is reading example code uncool?

You’ve got do a better job selling the title sorry. I feel like the separation between a query & the query execution plan is one of the benefits of SQL. I trust the database system to do the right thing 99% of the time, and I don’t want

I never disagreed that these companies have done something . I said you’re never going to get an honest opinion from most of HN because they’re employed by the companies.

You can’t fathom why being paid by the companies producing this technology doesn’t skew opinions?

by grebc 1mo ago
Yes.

You’re largely talking to people paid somewhere along the lines by all the AI equity that’s being raised. AI has made making a demo easy and sometimes it’s might present more than a quick trip to wikipedia would surface. Edit: also it makes

A non-trivial percentage are employed by the makers of said products. Cui bono?

Wasting money is the goal.

They’ll just dig new holes next to the concrete. You’re just spending money to feel good.

As a teenager over 20 years ago, I had my parents put in ethernet after the house was built and I wanted to game in my bedroom haha. At least it was CAT 5E and not just CAT 5 like the electrician wanted to put in. Overprovisioning when buil

I specifically excluded it, if you can’t fathom why I don’t want to get into a holy war about people’s personal diets then so be it.

Anyone who puts references at the bottom of their reply and references them. Absolutely no one that does as it’s a pain. But the trend is growing. If it’s pro-AI in stance, chances are it is.

Society isn’t going to change change what they eat unless forced to do so. Not what I’m asking.

Best ban them at the DNS level if you want to get into it. And not by age. Edit: any rule/law has ways around it. It’s the intent of the law that matters, and I do not think the sentiment in the community that made it possible is worri

I'm not based in the US, so your upcoming vote doesn't matter me. But the general idea of write/interact with your local representative I think warrants more attention. Just actual practical advice is all I'm after, as m

I don’t disagree with the sentiment or any of the data. But what actionable steps can an individual take that will actually affect the “it’ll be worse tomorrow” outcome? I feel like there’s more resources put towards marketing that there’s

You have absolutely nailed it. Funniest part of all of it is it’s all the same actors. Same hardware even. Just the crypto shills now talk about agentic capabilities & we’re approaching a singularity man! Can’t you see!!?

If intelligence solved everything, you’d have already solved everything already brother.

90% of the commentators are AI/bots these days.

NFT’s were the forefront according to HN 3 years ago, just before the AI hype cycle kicked off.

You just described 99% of AI usage.

Where’s the benefit in that? It’s not like Xerox is at the forefront these days. Maybe investors made a tonne on their equity back in the day? (What the real game is).

Pushing pixels around the screen is what I bluntly described the grand sum capabilities of AI to my brother, who is quite infatuated with it. It wasn't appreciated.
