Yes, in general that's how I expect (or at least want ) things to work. And I'm a tech-savvy software developer. Your average non-technical user will absolutely expect it to work this way, and if it doesn't, will be at be

I don't want to be the AI-hater guy, but I really like this. It was so much easier to find articles I really wanted to click on. In the first 30 articles I found quite a few, which is unusual for front-page HN these days. There are n

I don't think that follows. It's fine to recognize that something that isn't non-fiction is fiction, and, frankly, that's the only reasonable thing to do, since you can't know what's true and what isn't.

I don't think it's a matter of "feeling smarter" (at least not for me); I don't like most reality TV because the things you mention just don't resonate with me as being interesting or worth watching. I don&#x2

I don't think that's the problem, and I think your "if it can prove..." isn't really accurate. The compile can transform your code if the result of the computations it makes is the same (plus any ordering guarantees

There's a big difference between a human present who can make a decision based on a situation literally in front of their eyes, and a computer flagging a video feed for someone in what amounts to a call center to look at and decide on.

I'm really torn on this. This particular situation, at face value at least, sounds like a good outcome. Kids had a gun, someone noticed, called police, situation handled without escalation or violence or something tragic happening. Bu

... which seems to have nothing to do with using an LLM to do extra review.

> I think people in the tech community have probably also noticed that it's rather popular to have an absolute opinion on the goodness or badness of these tools. I don't think that's necessarily true. Nuance is a thing.

The New York (city?) connection makes sense; it would be difficult to walk around outside in NYC and end up with shoes cleaner than your socks.

The book thing, sure, but I take my shoes off indoors because they are dirty and gross, and I don't want that tracked into my home.

I would love to do something like this, but I really don't like pair programming. I don't work well that way, and I'm just not interested in "improving" my skills at working that way. Pretty much everything els

It's still worse; back then you didn't need to register at least a day in advance, and you didn't need a KTN.

Most of the contentious SCOTUS decisions these days are the opposite of that, where they defer to Congress or the executive.

I have a LG TV, but I do not allow it to connect to a wifi network. I don't trust LG, and expect them to do something anti-consumer to my hardware at some point, or to spy on me. This particular failure is a blessing in disguise.

HSTS doesn't protect you from this at all. It only requires HTTPS, which a spoofed-but-trusted cert passes just fine. No mainstream browser (or any browser?) is doing cert pinning. What "other methods" are there that are dep

I love cats, and ours are indoor-only. They are happy, simulated, and in good health. I expect their life expectancy is longer than if they were outdoor cats. They don't have the opportunity to kill birds or other animals. On the other

Many Android phones have the hardware, regardless of where they are sold, but it's disabled for non-Japanese SKUs so the manufacturer can avoid paying the licensing fees for it.

No, the chip is there, gated by a SKU check, so that Google only pays the licensing fees for their Japanese SKU.

Hardware/software-wise, yes, but putting money on the card is a problem if you don't have a credit/debit card issued by a Japanese bank (or perhaps a few others). That's fine for locals, of course, but not helpful for ma

It's also terrible for configs, for many of the reasons specified in the article.

What a weird analogy. That has nothing to do with allowing immigration. > We have a right to decide who can come, who can't, and we don't even have to justify why. "We" is a funny concept here. As a US citizen, I

Intel themselves writes a ton of the software for their own hardware that makes in into the Linux kernel.

I would welcome an addition to the HN guidelines to ban discussion about whether or not the article was written by AI. It's just so boring. I don't care if it was written by AI. I care if it's interesting and accurate. Thi

The author can do that, but didn't for literary effect. And he can do that because his audience is FT readers, not 10-year-olds.

Audience member here: I agree with GP; you posts come off as petty and childish. It seems natural to me to make comparisons only to open weight models where the weights have actually been released.

Of course they'll take their own cut, but that's fine. We accept (sometimes grudgingly) that credit card issuers and networks get their own cut, so there's easy precedent here. > How do you price articles? The same way

That's not how a micropayments system would work, and you don't need a token system. It would work similarly to how my transit card works. I use a credit card to put some amount of money on the card itself, say $20, and then ever
