It's not marketing. It's just unproductive and incessant. For example in this PHP post 3 days ago, ofc someone commented about how they ditched PHP and Go for Rust. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47149752

I think Rust has a big flaw to overcome in the age of LLMs: slow compilation. If they can't fix this, a language with similar guarantees, even syntax, but fast compilation is bound to succeed in niches where Rust is desireable. Iterati

No need to call names. And I don't understand your point. Are you calling their rules impossible to enforce? As per their rules, their instance is not only against entire PRs but any AI assisted code.

I understand there's an avalanche of vibe slop PRs. But to be clear their AI instance is as clear-cut as can be. Their instance IS INDEED to "prevent AI-assisted code to reach their codebase". > The following is not allowe

Probably not and why would it need such constraint? Not even humans can do that. Documentation needs to at least be reverse-engineered and understood before implementation.

I'm pointing out that their expectation of AI-free OS is pointless. Because AI-assisted code is most probably already present in devices they use. And I dare say that even for PostmarktOS: 1) There's no way they can prevent AI-ass

Not parent commenter but this is bound to happen. And I highly doubt iOS and Android are free from LLM assisted code at this point.

It's more like mentioning excavators in posts about the best vehicles to do groceries with.

Yep. It's like a crossfit vegan religion at this point. You don't even have to ask. They will tell you and usually add nothing to the conversation while doing so. Quite off-putting.

With the amount of money being thrown in R&D, I don't doubt the actual number is astounding.

Really? That's a lot of presumption and reductionism to LLMs enthusiasts. People of varied ages, already leverage LLMs on a daily basis. And LLMs will only get better. Yesterday, Opus did work for me that would have taken me weeks. And

I suspect those who praise Gemini use it mostly for JS/CSS/HTML because that's where it shines for me. For complex code I have been having using Sonnet/Opus as usual with a mix of GPT5.3-Codex.

It's still valid as as example to the language community of how to apply these optimizations.

For all I know Linux started a hobby project from one person. So entertain me if you disagree.

Isn't that how Linux started?

If they do, it could be because safety is a gradient and one variable among many in software development, albeit a very important one when it comes to browsers.

I wonder where did you get the idea that Firefox was all Rust. Made me curious.

I expected a coparison to `bun build` in the transformer TS -> JS part. But I guess it wouldn't be an apples to apples com parison because Bun can also run typescript directly.

Maybe, but forcing code generation in a certain way could ruin hello worlds and simpler code generation. Sometimes the user just wants something simple instead of enterprise grade.

Humans are nondeterministic. So this is a moot point and a futile exercise in arguing semantics.

by hu3 8mo ago
Not my experience. What doesn't work for you? I use Opus 4.6 (for complex refactoring), Gemini 3.1 Pro (for html/css/web stuff) and GPT Codex 5.3 (workhorse, replaced Sonnet for me because in Copilot it has larger context) mo

you can't really compare Karpathy with Einstein. One of them is barely known outside some bubbles and will be forgotten in history, the other is immortal. Imagine what Einstein could do with today's computing power.

it's because Apple blocks access to iMessage and other Appe services from non Apple os. If you, like me, don't care about any of that stuff you can use anything plus use SoTA models through APIs. Even raspberry pi works.

$3k Ryzen ai-max PCs with 128GB of unified ram is said to run this reasonably well. But don't quote me on it.

Not to mention these people basically self declare as non-hireable or mark themselves a target on their back for the next layoff culling. Terrible for career. It's like complaining that power tools are bad because they promote industri

Doing things faster/easier means I now do most of these things whereas I didn't before. Because I have limited time and energy. Take learning as an example: I couldn't afford to spend a weekend learning the tradeoffs made by

Folks around me use mostly Instagram which ironically is also from Meta. Zuck is always one step ahead.
