Agreed. I don't know how they plan to enforce this but this is way better than some other articles that have come up indicating educational bans on AI use, in-person proctoring, verbal assessments, pen and paper exams etc. This is the

If I were the rsync maintainer after this I'd unpublish it everywhere I had control over, delete the repo and turn off my computer to go walk in the park. The linked thread is insane.

Crazy to watch the death of open source happen in real time like this. Why would anyone share any code to open themselves up for all of these wannabe main characters to pile on them? Given the choice I'd rather have a bunch of slop cod

Programming is just telling a computer what to do. LLMs gave turned out to be pretty good at that. What is thinking, anyway?

However you feel about AI, pretty obviously not cool behavior. It would be functionally the same kind of targeted punishment if I had a hidden script in my open-source project that detected if you were on Windows and purposely bricked your

They're in good company with most of these replies, apparently. Lots of sour grapes in here.

They target it because it's the best distribution platform we have, the tech stack is unified, and managing native apps has only gotten less attractive over time. Chrome, the only native app that matters to most users, re-opens your ta

I often think that especially on HN React is just a four-letter word proxying some broader complaint about the interactive web and that most people complaining about it don't actually understand what problems it solves. In general if y

IMO odd to frame this around the frontend and not all of software development. "The Cloud" and middleman products on top in various iterations over the last fifteen years has deskilled literally all backend work, going back even f

I don't doubt that they were a bit overstaffed, but it doesn't seem unreasonable when you consider that "Messenger" is an umbrella that includes video calling, payments, games, integrations with business chatbots, Uber&#

Simple registration I have less of a problem with for some of the reasons you listed. Cross-reference with vet records, have fines specifically for missing rabies vaccinations etc for the sake of public health, sure. Maybe even bill me a no

I was going to comment "dog license???" but I looked it up for my county and I had no idea this was a thing. I'm in awe. I adopted an adult dog ~9 years ago. He has issued literally one single bark in that span. He stays indo

If they are they need to fix how the Claude Code CLI asks for feedback, or make the feedback UI a lot more obvious. I keep experiencing the following scenario. The agent session pauses with a numbered list of options and awaits steering inp

I was going to sell off my original HTC Vive to cover some of the cost of upgrading to a Frame...glad I haven't done that yet.

Seconding the other comments here. I forgot to close the carrying case on mine (original LCD) and it fell out down a flight of wooden stairs, destroying the screen. I bought an OEM replacement screen from iFixit and swapped it out in an hou

I had a deeply maddening experience at one job where somebody was reviewing a Typescript PR of mine. In their first copy-pasted review there was a suggestion that I do something slightly differently; it wasn't something I had a strong

React, too. React or Electron in a submission title is like free money here, like throwing pellets into a koi pond.

Yep, I noticed recently that on their official research portal they stopped publishing anything publicly in I think 2021. The last couple of articles before that were along these lines: https://research.duolingo.com/papers&#

Duolingo is a game, they publish papers studying the addictive properties of their product I comparison to slot machines. They are incentivized heavily to not produce fluent learners. If he's being pushed in another direction to learn,

I could have been clearer, but the group I'm describing is only the Mormons I've known, and I don't mean militant in a bad way - professional, polished, hardworking. I'm sure there are lazy Mormons as there are lazy peop

Utah is such a special, creepy little standout enclave among the states. I've worked with a few Mormon coworkers who are genuinely wonderful people whom I adore, but they are, as a group, militant in a way that's hard to describe.

I have childhood memories of visiting my grandparents, who lived near a town with a paper mill. Going to town, going to a restaurant etc, meant being inundated with the horrible smell produced by that mill, within a radius of miles. It was

Not everybody lives in a dense city center or wants to, which is where the usefulness of trains ends and cars begins. > children use them to get to school, they're accessible the elderly and disabled. Many things that automated cars

by llbbdd 5mo ago
That's fine but you still have to get to/from the train station, which is a problem cars solve very well. All the better if the car drives itself. They complement each other which is why I find it so strange that discussion of tra

by llbbdd 5mo ago
That's the bit. For some reason trains come up on these threads all the time like it's some kind of gotcha alternative solution to driverless cars, forgetting that cars can go to your front door.

I think intelligence is an orthogonal, mostly philosophical question aside from whether these tools can produce novel, useful output vs purely recombinant output.

I come back to something like this idea when I consider the distinction being made that LLMs can only combine and interpolate between points in their training material. I could write a brute-force program that just used an English dictionar
