AI as commonly discussed is just pretty-general intelligence that is very economically valuable. Not AGI outside of the true believers. And can we discuss AI drivers and AI LLMs in the same paragraph? One is a special application of trying

That HNers like unions “in theory” reads to me like a thirty year old closeted gay guy that insists that he likes women. Sure, I love women. I just haven’t found one that arouses me yet.

Ad populum. What’s the common denominator on a nerd forum w.r.t interpreting tone cues? No, not even the mock URL was enough.

Typical HN war story about how one’s coworkers are incompetent or chronically lazy. I guess this is the HN version of hard-hatters being vehemently against immigrant labor. Meanwhile the concern for being abused by people with actual power

Plenty of these comments that wash their hands of being pro- or anti-. They are just about the Inevitabilism. It is just here. Whatever happened to rational critique for or against something? No, humbug—what do you expect from this forum fu

Some people say that we cannot solve catastrophic climate change. And then some other people claim that those are anti-solving the problem. Indeed the climate change problem is massive and it is incredibly, incredibly difficult to solve giv

It is not at all, in the slightest, weird heuristic to deploy in the Agentic Era. It’s a heuristic after all. There is no proof one way or the other.

I don’t really care about posting in bold 20 bugs when it comes to a hobby project. (In before “Linux was just a hobby project”) No need to LLM post over what this tells us about the trajectory of society, oh my. We can save that dialogue

How great then. My reply was aimed at this board.[1] The people who are unhappy about it but “can’t” to anything about it because there are no Sprint points to be awarded for “smashing the machines.” So they resign themselves to technologic

You start sipping your tea. You quit coffee because you get too agitated. You were given a two-weeks notice three days ago. So were a lot of other people. The gist of it was AI. That’s what they said anyway. You and others are fretting abou

I don’t know. I haven’t seen anyone who is brave enough to deserve to be called a (Neo) Luddite. People that have negative opinions about technological progress at least have the will to form an opinion backed by arguments. Contrast that

It’s predictable that a board full of 100K USD+[1] salary programmers and capitalists are negative against labor laws. [1] Outdated by now (higher)?

Did the Union have economic use for chattel slavery or “wage slavery” as some called it around that time? I’ve never heard of mainstream economics serving people. Maybe Keynesianism did?

There is no oil left in the engine. “Slap a smiley face on the dashboard.” Many such cases. There will never be a just-a-little-exploitation capitalism coming from the bougies or their academic henchmen. They have to chase profit, that’s th

I don’t understand how this, in the context of people like Eric Schmidt lecturing people about AI, is putting it in stark terms. Starkly is to contrast these millionaire’s/billionaire’s ambitions to put them out of a job, permanently.
