Where do you go when you need to escape but can't actually go anywhere? Inwards. Imagination, media, substances, meditation, solitude.

It feels like "Autonomous Coding Agents" are being astroturfed on the daily on HN. The same arguments and tropes are echoing through every thread. It's hard to distinguish who's a bot, who's a narrative pusher and w

I left an agent generating code over the weekend, so that I can get to 15 million. What code? Code!

Is it politics or ideology to recognize the flawed character of someone? How cultish his following is? His erratic behavior, the damage that he's doing? Some people will cry "politics" just to take the voice away from those w

Sure, but this description doesn't correspond to what happened in Chernobyl, and none of the other trumpets have corresponding events. So do the Evangelicals believe that Chernobyl disaster triggered the apocalypse, and that it has bee

Right "you do not know the day or the hour", not "you know that the day will be sometime between 2026 and 2076". I understand being prepared and whatnot. I don't understand the certainty of the date. Even the Bible

For the first Christians, it made sense. But gradually, as it didn't happen, people adjusted their expectations.

Well, even European Evangelicals are vastly different from their American counterparts. There's no megachurches, prosperity gospel, televangelism, and the religion is not as strongly intertwined with politics.

Out of curiosity, what grounds their belief that it's going to happen soon? Why not in a thousand years? As far as I know, there is no mention of the exact date in the Bible.

It's not always the same: >>> hash(float('nan')) 271103401 >>> hash(float('nan')) 271103657

It would be more satisfying to learn why hash of nan is not guaranteed to be the same. It feels like a bug.

It's similar to how people say "Europe does this or that". Basically the part of their thoughts dedicated to that part of the world is so small that all they can afford is a tiny box, and everything has to go in there, reali

The act of choosing something requires effort, and is an expression of personal style. This is way better than handing it all over to the model.

I want cool cryptography where I can, e.g. verify where I'm writing from and what my age is without giving away any other information. Or if I want, I can verify that I'm myself, and eschew anonymity, and certain platforms should

As someone who learned English as a second language, I would encourage people to use LLMs and any other resources to practice, and then use what they've learned to communicate with others. Telling an LLM to "refine" your writ

It’s not a myth, it’s a coping strategy.

Is there anything interesting in there? I skimmed and it seems like reporting on Twitter posts, and news about the 2 leading LLM providers that have been extensively covered on HN.

I agree, and I think that the simplicity mantra of the early go team caused them to not deal with solvable problems when they had the chance. They would rather not solve it, thinking that the "programmers will deal with it". Now t

Exceptions can be bad if done the wrong way. But the solution isn’t to not deal with it and put it on the programmer. That’s laziness. The problems are that the signature of functions doesn’t say anything about what values it might throw, a
