Wow tell me how you really feel. Who am I going to believe angry people on HN or my own lying eyes?

> I think the world would be a better place if everyone went vegan. Strongly disagree. I absolutely hate that animals have to be killed for us to eat meat. And the industrial scale cruelty of factory farming gives me existential dread. B

I'm fine with recommendation algorithms if it was truly anonymous. The problem is that when you're paying for these streaming services, they have your identity, and most likely also sell your watching preference and habit data to

Do cancers have a tendency to come back with better drug resistance if it's not fully eliminated? at least a resistance to the drug that got rid of it the previous time?

The primary argument is to avoid fragmentation sprinkled with some other not-well-thought-through points. Distros aren't rolling back to X11. That ship has sailed. You can either help move things along, or drag your feet and increase f

The UI looks very similar to Gitea. Are they related? And how do they compare?

Gary has a history of yo-yo-ing between panicking in front of congress about how AI is moving too fast and needs to be stopped and "see I told you this would never work". His entire career is built on poopooing other people's

Why doesn't PHP remove the horrid $ symbol for variables and the -> symbol for calling methods? I think those alone would do a lot more for its perception and adoption than adding the pipe operator.

It's such a tragedy that we're deliberately destroying the very engine of our global science and tech research leadership. All for the sake of making the pro-Israeli lobby happy under the guise of protecting against "antisemi

You can term anything whatever you want, doesn't make it true. The "Jew Exclusion Zone" term was coined by the plaintiff in this case. A lot of the college protesters are in fact Jewish. This is a fact the pro-Israel propagan

Do anyone know why GrapheneOS doesn't support fairphone?

I'm not sure if you were being sarcastic, but I honestly don't think how it could possibly get any more intrusive without directly uploading files.

Golang declared a perfect backwards compatibility guarantee way back when version 1 was released. So in this regard, Perl isn't unique.

Are people still using Perl for new software? I remember at a former company, we had a major migration away from Perl 12 years ago. The Perl code base was considered extremely ancient even back then.

Almost everyone runs LLM inference at fp8 - for all of the open models anyway. You only see performance drop off below fp8.

But all of these factors have been around for many decades, why is it showing up now?

Got any benchmarks to go along with it? Unfortunately, there are a million different cognitive architectures out there, and there's no trivial way to filter through them.

That's just suffering for suffering sake with no fathomable benefit. Why not reduce cognitive overhead if you can get it for free?

There's also the question of how to handle pointer types which get initialized as nil. Specially prevalent in places where you have to deserialize data.

This is so awesome! I tried building literally this year or so ago after being inspired by Borgo, but my kung fu wasn't as strong as yours. Are nil pointers still possible/allowed in AGL? After a lack of enums, this is my biggest

The more your compiler does for you at build time, the longer it will take to build, it's that simple. Go has sub-second build times even on massive code-bases. Why? because it doesn't do a lot at build time. It has a simple modul

How does this compare to OpenCode and OAI's Codex? Those two are also free, they work with any LLM. https://github.com/opencode-ai/opencode

How so? you don't need the go build toolchain installed to use Go binaries.
