I built my "NAS", which is just a normal computer with no GPU but 3 hard-drives in RAID 5, for $400 + storage cost. It is much more powerful that any NAS, even thousands of dollars ones, I'm not too sure at what cost (power c

That's fine, lies are more harmful than anecdotes are beneficial. There's no forum to discuss the best IDE and people still manage, in reality there's no need for a forum around AI.

I know, and I'm saying that 2x claims should be interpreted as an actual 20% increase, and 10x claims as an actual 100% increase. People are just bad at estimating their own productivity.

Even this is overstating it IMO. I already convert from multipliers to percentage of increase, so when someone claims 10x they very likely mean +100% productivity, and here 2x means +20% productivity, which seems about right. Nobody that wa

Not as much as LLMs are poisonous to the scientific literature (or, really, any literature).

The thing is that maybe your comment is sarcasm, but half of HN commenters would make the same comment 100% seriously.

I'll be more blunt than other commenters: this is useless. Obsidian and plenty of other note taking apps already do the same and more. Add to that the fact that it's likely entirely vibe-coded, there's really 0 value proposit

What you're looking for is not something to help your with your goals, it's something that sells you the idea that you can achieve your goals while seemingly be unwilling to put the necessary effort in. What if it's simply im

They absolutely don't. They ask for your date of birth to fill it on their app and that's it.

I think it's a missed opportunity to not have called it "Stop spying on every EU citizen online". It would make for great headlines and might finally wake people up when they see that the EU has rejected a proposal called tha

by iLoveOncall 3mo ago
Okay so you have no names of experienced developers saying that coding agents are now useful when they weren't before. The only two you have actually saying that are... not working as software engineers.

The fact that it says so in the licensing conditions on AWS?

Not at all. The Turing test was never about AGI, just about being able to discern a chatbot from a human in a casual conversation... I would also say that funnily enough it's extremely easy to detect if you're talking to a human o

by iLoveOncall 3mo ago
LLM labs dumbed down the definition of AGI as much as possible, yet their models haven't reached it still. We are nowhere near the original definition of AGI. Not even 1% of the way there.

Just another proof that the supposed edge of Fable and Mythos were just that: myths and fables.

According to the comment I was responding to, he got 3 bad experiences out of 3 orders, so 100% rate of issues. What's the expected rate of house fires? Both you and the other commenter about his grandma's smoking habit are making

I have 400 orders a year on Amazon and never have any of those weird issues. How strange!

You gotta be joking. Apple has no support at all, and if you ever go into a shop at their "GeNiUs BaR" (after booking an appointment days in advance), you will get extremely poor service and incompetent support.

The fact that I can speak to a human to refund a $2 item on Amazon proves how wrong you are.

I've also noticed so many pieces of software becoming worse and worse, either with useless features (basically any new thing on Slack in the past year) or with a huge amount of large bugs, over the past year. It's glaringly obviou
