I mean i did this sort of thing a ton and am not on the spectrum. Idk when being "quirky" meant you are autistic, seems like it was within the last 7-10 years though.

I wish HN had flairs (tags) like Reddit and mandated a few for AI-related work (AI-Assisted, AI-meta, AI-vibecoding) or something so these could be filtered out

I think this is probably sufficient, but also wonder if theres a circular logic to the "No way to hack that" claim. If the hypothetical hack could both corrupt the digital votes and the printing it could ensure the vote counts lin

Guess the folks LARPing as devs will continue to be even less productive than usual today. Honestly its probably for the best that they can shove this slop into the codebase though.

I ran TrueNAS for years but now that I've discovered immutable OSes, and uCore specifically, I'm never going back! Sauce: https://github.com/ublue-os/ucore

What does the "this one is controversial" label mean? Does it just mean the voters are split or does it mean its not known whether or not the image/video is actually AI-generated?

I think it contributes to a general pushback against AI, which some of us appreciate...

have a link for that claim?

Yeah i think this is pretty much it tbh

Always surprised when these "smart people" didn't see these things coming from several years away... Its honestly hard for me to believe it. Going to work for these big SV corps is and always has been directly in service of U

Thankfully none of the serious solutions are nation-specific. Also they do not emit "orders of magnitude more" https://edgar.jrc.ec.europa.eu/report_2025

Deflock is awesome! https://app.copdb.org is a similar project for mapping police & the violence they commit. Mostly in Utah but recently opened up to include ICE agents, which is talked about on their blog: https:/&#x

I'm regularly surprised how otherwise intelligent people with "good intentions" keep going to work at these places in the first place, then get all "surprised pikachu" when it turns out their work might go towards n

Yeah new data would be great, but i feel like these tools are not substantively better and this is becoming the new "its different this time!"

Everyday I am more and more pleased with our company's (or at least our company's tech department) to effectively ban AI.
78.
by monkaiju 8mo ago
I guess time will tell, but so far none of the AI-output we've seen is any good. We dont like to adopt technologies based on hype, so if it proves itself it will be adopted, but until then its a toy.

That sounds awful... Thankfully our CTO is quite supportive of our teams anti-AI policy and is even supportive of posting our LLM-ban on job postings. I honestly dont think that I could operate in an environment with any sort of AI mandate.

by monkaiju 8mo ago
Exactly! Also operating "at scale" is only impressive if you can do it with comparable speed and uptime, it doesn't mean much if every page takes seconds to load and it falls over multiple times a day lol

Ironic that that same AI you're mentioning is probably a large part of why this class of outages are increasing. Id highly recommend folks understand their infrastructure enough to setup/run it without AI before they put anything

I mean, not necessarily proprietary right? There are OSS solutions like forgejo that make it pretty simple, at least as simple as running a git system and a standalone CI system

I couldn't tell you because I've kept it at arms length but over the last year our most enthusiastic "AI guy" (as well as another AI-user on the team) has churned through quite a few, usually saying something like "

Wasnt GitHub supposed to be doing a feature freeze while they move to Azure?(1) They certainly could use it as their stability has plummeted. After moving to a self-hosted Forgejo I'll never go back. My UI is instant, my actions are fa

I mean, I just dont see any evidence of that happening. TBF I'm a SWE so I can only speak to that segment, but its literally worse than useless for working with anything software related thats non-trivial...

by monkaiju 9mo ago
I mean, Im 10ish years in, so probably have another couple decades at least, and I never use AI assistants for anything. Also one of the two highest performing team members, and the other doesn't use it either. Its a great time to be a

And it's already surpassed my most starred project when it was on GitHub, all the more validating to have moved it to forgejo. If vibecoded stuff with unbelievable security vulns can get so much praise the whole star system doesn'

its still an added inconvenience and means they cant use AI to farm reputation on a single account
