Hmm I'm confused. I have my own domain that is totally not hosted on google. However, I use Google's SMTP to send mail as that domain (specifically the one email address that is enabled on my custom domain). For that I'm auth

Sir, have you considered a career in social networking engagement? Edit: 10 years since i made the HN account and I only now notice you can't see the scores of other people's comments. Here's hoping the brilliance of the abov

I only saw the "revised title" and yes, it's still confusing :)

by nottorp 1mo ago
Trouble is, from the existing title it's not clear who had the handicap. So the poster is right to try and fix it.

Basically that using "commits" implies a certain degree of psychological detachment from your work. Did you ever use "commits" before LLMs came out? An actual psychologist could explain it much better than me, but i noti

by nottorp 1mo ago
That's how the LLMs made you think of your work? You're producing commits now? It's like "content creator" vs "writer" or "artist".

It would be too easy to have every option in a config file documented in comments in the default config file. Think of the poor tutorial industry. It may even make chatbots less useful.

This is basically the same keyword matching every job posting uses correct? But the optimal for those isn't to post a generic who wants to be hired but have a LLM rewrite your resume to match the job description isn't it?

There really is a fps counter on there. Is the experiment seriously rendering continuously in a loop?

Well I have opus 4.8 pinned :) More "frontier" models seem to create more busywork for themselves in my limited testing.

Let me guess: it's the end of the world again. These new models are sooo powerful that will take over the world, just like the others before them. Are they going to try the banned for export for a week marketing move too?
