Are you breaking up your tasks and spawning new sessions for each, or are you just yoloing and letting it auto compact when it blows the context many times on such a long running task?

Completely random, and not leading in any way, but where do you live currently? As in, which country, which city?

I think you're arguing against something that is made up by doomers. They truly believe (evidence by the comments below yours) that the billionaire class are all a of one mind and want to eradicate other humans, live in cloud cities, a

I would think the argument is more that the average worker living under a king would not even own their property, but would be renting a hovel, living in abject squalor, and having lots of children in order to bring in enough to pay the ren

One thing to look for in the EU is free movement of people. Young people can and do migrate to regions that pay them more. It would be interesting to look at Spanish youth migration to see if the younger workers (i.e. those more likely to h

I have a good experience too. I do the same as you. I actively want to succeed with it, and therefore put time into making it work, and I have a good experience. As do the other 80+ developers at my company (it is a fintech). Pretty much ev

I do laugh at mathematician's (assuming you are one) explanations to laypeople.

For what it is worth, I agree with you. So there is at least one other person out there who would like statements to remain factual. When the entire topic is already so emotionally charged, it seems even more important to attempt to just st

Yes, absolutely comfortable. Because the real world seems very different to this online world to me. The sheer volume of anti-AI sentiment here and on reddit are not even closely matched by my real life experience. All the parents in the gr

That's not the point of my response. It is tiresome, and detracts from meaningful discourse to have the same tired anti-capitalism meme tacked onto everything. It didn't even make sense in the post I was responding to - which is e

I've been thinking about this for a while. I'm a new contributor, long time reader on hn. I also have an old reddit account. I have always thought hn as higher quality than reddit, but lately I'm becoming a victim of my own i

The person you're responding to didn't say they loved software though. They said they saw it as a tool to get interesting stuff done.

I was nodding to your post for a short period, then you just had to throw in the usual anti-capitalism zeitgeist rant. Reframe your context, pretend you're in a communist society, and you could be making the exact same point about spea

I'm considering a home project done in Rust. I've not even touched Rust before, I'm a Java dev. It'll be something reasonably complicated, using a bit of unsafe etc. Do you know how Luna does writing Rust code?

It seems to have become "the thing" to do. I can't figure out if it is bad as it feels. Why would I run `curl | bash` on something that could be doing literally anything. It feels crazy that all the lessons we've learned

Exactly. Exasperating how many people are not only oblivious to this, they seem to actively buy in to the status where the government are our masters. They're not, they are literally our employees. We elect them to do what we want. But

This is exactly it. I love my children more than anything, I would die for them. I do regret having children though, *at the moment*. I didn't realise just how very hard it would be. My eldest is autistic though, so for seven years we&

> Cleaning is easy to optimize Your entire argument rests on this statement, yet I don't see any further talk about it or anything to back it up. Perhaps sleep is the very best way to optimise cleaning, outweighing the disadvantages

Thank you for writing that. It's a good example. I think 99.999% of all coding/engineering is not like this example though.
