Yes. This pedantic gotcha that misses the point is amazing proof of that. Thanks for demonstrating.

This might be a blessing in disguise though, as the thing you've tasked it to do is something you should not offload to an LLM.

I wouldn't say that it's the stylized approach tbh, but rather the lack of it? Not to attack you, but it reads like a sudden unexpected glossary section. For which there is a place in the world, but only if it is expected (hence t

That answers the what, but not the why. The why however I'd argue is a lot more interesting. Also, you can often derive the what if you know the why and just follow the thread and map it out.

I feel like this is either AI-generated or severely lacks context. There might be a point in there, but it might also just be paragraphs of text with little structure joined together. What's the narrative? What does this want to tell m

> The MCP Industrial Complex Was that a real thing? I mean it must've been for it to be mentioned there, but, rephrased: what was the scale of that? How many individuals were involved in that? 1? 10? 100? 1000? 10000? 100000?

Hmm I'm not 100% sure about that, given that edge is very viable, and the geopolitical climate has changed quite significantly. I agree that datacenters are not going to go away, but I have doubts that the buildup that has happened is

That is true, but the eventual realization that more machines doing more coin flips in parallel does not mean "more work gets done" might. LLMs are amazing tech, but they're terrible without oversight. More agents faster just

I can see that by those reddit-style vote swings, but who are "they", exactly? Who is so emotionally invested into random comment sections being purely positive about their pet.. uuuuuuuh.. tech? Very weird.

Well I mean if I wanted to be extra pedantic, I would argue that we've been in that phase since LLMs were first introduced. Before that, we had 0. After that, we had more than 1. A leap as far as that is hard to recreate. But that was

I'm not sure if this prediction will hold true. We're not seeing the progress in those "frontier models" that we have previously seen. There's certainly still gas left in tank tank, but we're way into the dimin

Are there known examples of software where the "software factory pattern" (an incorrect term, given that it's not a pattern but a workflow. Or rather an idea. A hope. A wish.) proved to work long-term? Preferably ones that I

This feels agentically generated. The blog, the post here, the (auto?)killed LLM comment.

by hypfer 6d ago
It actually is though? Though arguably more of a process and judgement issue than skill. What makes LLM-generated code a bit special there is that misjudging how to deal with it seems to be what most people do. So the default is broken. Whe

Maybe someone should sell "the end is nigh" sign nfts with fun AI-generated designs on them, to be used in your metaverse villa.

To be frank, I'm not really interested in "joining" your thing there, when joining your thing usually means me doing the work while others get to decide on how it should be done and feel good about that it is being done as if

FWIW, I don't think that they're being malicious. They instead just seem to have no idea nor do they care. And the original comment I've replied to proves this strategy right! So from a business standpoint: excellent work.

I wouldn't list Opencode as "good reputation". They had their own unbound "harness scans the whole user directory" oopsie and handled concerns about that by introducing code signing. Which, yes, does have absolutely

urandom has no financial incentive though. It just is. The same can unfortunately not be said about "making it to the HN front page". But I can see that not everyone is bothered by that as much as I am. Not that I would have any m

Yes, yes indeed. Just like humans by their very nature are low quality, since they come from the biology ecosystem, where everything is built atop everything else. Filthy carbon-based mammals.
