And when the agent fucks up badly (as we've seen over and over again) who will be held accountable? The user?

> LLMs are inherently unpredictable. Exactly my point. If the tool is inherently unpredictable AI companies should either be held accountable for any mistakes or should not sell/market their services as if they were infallible.

AI companies: here's a knife so you can automate bread cutting! User: I tried to cut some bread and it cut my finger instead. AI companies: not my problem! HN: The AI didn't cut your finger, you did, idiot.

Started using Bun last year for some quick tests and it ended up fully replacing Node for any new projects after using it for over a decade. I've reduced my dependencies 5-10x. Got full TS and JSX/TSX support with zero setup. Watc

Every approach has its pros and cons. OTOH the less you rely on third party deps, the less attack surface.

I use Bun and I'm concerned too but it's still too early to tell. Personally my experience with Bun has been 100% positive so far. I'm aware full Node support is not there yet and may never happen but with dependencies that s

I honestly doubt it will make much of a difference. A good percentage of people who would download the cracked games would not have bought those anyway. And with Steam being so convenient it's hard to decide to go for a cracked copy of

It's disingenuous to believe there was any merit in blocking Cloudflare. Not only this was never going to solve the piracy problem but it was always more of a pissing context. Furthermore, La Liga somehow convinced the courts they shou

At the very least, when an agent can delete a production database you should get an obvious warning whenever you enable it. Marketing wouldn't like it though.
