It's "HN-likely" which translates to "almost never" in reality.

How is a woman who is hosting the fetus’s decision the same as the choice being made for her (by involuntarily poisoning)?

Sounds like an overreaction by the OP out of frustration by not understanding how something works and how to debug it. Instead of learning and accepting the growing pains, decides to throw the baby out with the bath water, shame.

Because the same claims of "AI tool does everything" are made over and over again.

Can I start then with Scala - it's my favorite language and easily has the best of both OO and functional worlds with insanely useful libraries to express code ergonomically. EVERYBODY SHOULD USE IT!

I loved the idea of Swift adopting actors however the implementation seems shoehorned. I wanted something more like Akka or QP/C++...

Evidently by "LLM/AI psychosis" coming into the mainstream zeitgeist, "slopbrain" isn't too far off.

I'm not viewing AI tooling as an extinction of the art of programming, only illuminating how telling an AI how to create programs isn't in the same universe as programming, where the technical skill to do such a thing is on par wi

They aren't addressing my comment (which is obviously an overreaction to the tweet), he's asking you why we should appeal to authority rather than evaluate whether Karpathy is completely overreacting and in way too deep.

This sounds like my complete and utter nightmare. No art or finesse in building the thing - only an exercise in torturing language to someone who at a fundamental level doesn't understand a thing.

A mix of "too clever by half" and "never meet your heroes".

Let go of your AI gods and embrace the abyss. We've survived for decades without them and will survive in spite of them.

Wow - can we coin "Slopbrain" for people who are so far gone into AI eventualism that they can no longer function? Liked "cooked" but "slopped" or something. Good grief lol. Talk about getting lost in the sauce

SPAs are early 2010s homie. SSR has been dominant for the past 5 years.

They usually are, by the CFTC, but Polymarket was able to skate by until the last couple years as an unregulated derivatives market. Polymarket bought their way back into the US by buying an already existing CFTC approved exchange (QCX).

Not all high school educations are created equal - See Carmel High School (Carmel, IN), New Trier High School (Winnetka, IL), or any other High School in a densely high wealth area.

It’s not even the languages or runtimes that inhibit embedded adoption but the software to hardware tooling. Loader scripts, HAL/LL/CMSIS, flashing, etc. They all suck.

No I mean post it as an HN post and if anybody cares to see it, they'll upvote that and comment in there. That, instead of pigging backing on other posts to get visibility.

I downvoted because I'm tired of people regurgitating how they've done this or that with whatever LLM of the week on seemingly every technical post. If you care that much, write a blog post and post that, we don't need low ef

What do you think is happening to the people who are deported? Maybe not murdered explicitly but they're definitely not having the red carpet rolled out in whatever country they land in. The US is looking for any suitor country to take
