No. They want to believe that, but the reality is that even in this little bubble (with a median income multiple times that of general population's median), anyone that works for a living is far more likely to experience homelessness t

Those sound like capitalism problems, not medical ones, to be probably too honest (HN doesn't generally vibe with class consciousness because so many tech bros sell out or dream of selling out one day, but). Society can afford to have

From what I could gather while I was inside (2010-ish, but not directly involved with chip product lines) there was just incredible hubris company wide. "Intel Architecture is the best because we made it and we're the best" e

Many people wing dishes that they've prepared 100s of times. Others rarely make the same recipe twice. Neither are correct or incorrect, but the latter is very much going to measure everything they're doing carefully (or fail ofte

This is what disconnected corporate people believe (whether they are themselves cogs or are the one operating the drawer), but the truth is that high-performing contributors are never cogs and progress is not measured in man-months or lines

Yep, in the case of open source contributions as an example, the bottleneck isn't contributors producing and proposing patches, it's a maintainer deciding if the proposal has merit, whipping (or asking contributors to whip) patche

They probably just manage to realize that being seen to be "moving fast with AI" simply isn't a goal unto itself, that it has to deliver something of value beyond itself.

I actually agree with you, to be clear. I do not trust these things to make any unsupervised action, ever, even absent user-controlled input to throw wrenches into their "thinking". They simply hallucinate too much. Like... we use

Seems they can't imagine the constraints being implemented as code a human wrote so they're just imagining you're adding another LLM to try to enforce them?

I was thinking "wow, how do you do that?" but then I forgot you're not dealing with any possible value between 1 and 2048 in a cell, only the powers of 2, so significantly fewer possible board states. Very cool. I feel people

Intelligent, rational, empathetic people need to realize that when they are doing theory of mind for others (and especially groups) they are projecting their own qualities where they do not exist.

I suspect that the people that dislike supporting Google probably don’t support Google. I imagine that the people who dislike supporting generative AI do not support or use it? Why are you assuming they are hypocrites?

I don’t remember saying I agree with these positions. I am actually opposed to the idea of making policy decisions based on moral values rather than consequentialist ethics, so I disagree with both.
