“The perps” gives away a huge flaw in your thinking, that people are inherently good or inherently bad and that “bad” people are motivated to do bad things always and will always find a way to do them and “good” people don’t. This is entire

A substack that tells you to “read Wikipedia” is not a valid criticism of the obvious.

You’re sealioning.

You haven’t tried shit, don’t lie to me. Most bad faith comment I’ve ever read in my life.

_sigh_ I didn’t say we shouldn’t.

Nice straw man, I argued for nothing that you are arguing against.

Hmm, someone being angry about AI on HN, this will do well given the folk here, but I doubt there’ll be much nuanced conversation in here.

It’s definitely providing some value but it’s incredibly overvalued. Much like the dot com bust didn’t mean that online websites were bad or useless technology, only that people over invested into a bubble.

They always did what they wanted with open source code, not sure why people think this is different

*in your opinion

by jama211 10mo ago
Inside open source communities maybe. In the corporate world? Absolutely not. Ever. They will take your open source code and do what they want with it, always have.

Well said. AI makes people feel icky, that’s the actual problem. Everything else is post rationalisation they add because they already feel gross about it. Feeling icky about it isn’t necessarily invalid, but it’s important for us to unders

Except petrol is significantly cheaper than it was once you account for inflation.

I’m a senior developer and it has been hugely helpful for me in both saving time and effort and improving the quality of my output. You’re making a lot of confident statements and not backing them up with anything except your feelings on th

You’re attacking one or two examples mentioned in their comment, when we could step back and see that in reality you’re pushing against the general scientific consensus. Which you’re free to do, but I suspect an ideological motivation behin

That would be yes. What about a token return gift to another business that you actually hate the ceo of but have to send it anyway due to political reasons?

Well said, absolutely ridiculous framing keeps happening and you kept it grounded.
468.
by jama211 10mo ago
Whilst true, it’s important to focus on the worst ones first, as with everything there is a scale.

by jama211 10mo ago
This should be higher, absolutely right

“We’ve tried nothing (about guns) and we’re all out of ideas” all over again.

I’m curious what the benefit of this is over running away, cursor ide with the Claude agent?

Oof, a whole CAT scanner is insane! Did insurance cover it?

Hmm, might need a few more cycles for that one

I can feel your pain in your comments, and when I was deep working for a company that treated me like crap I’d have been exactly the same way. I’m now in a company that treats me with great respect. No, I don’t have an actual stake in the c

Anything ending well on the internet is like a mythical unicorn though

You both make some good points

Not who you were just speaking with, but I’ve never agreed with the emotional side of a comment so much whilst disagreeing with the actionable choices side so much. In reality, the truth probably lies somewhere in the middle. I would draw t

List was to a time point, and list says 42. All good! You could even say after waiting the right amount of time, 42 was the answer this computer program generated…

Very well said. It worries me how quick people are to leap to “we’ll just imprison people that’ll help” despite endless data that says the opposite

So well said, I like the technique of taking their logic and turning it around, never seen that before but it’s smart.
