Thank you for shipping this. Need to test it but going to add this to the deps bundle for my deployment service (relies heavily on systemd). Looks like it would make day to day maintenance/debugging far less of a headache.

Unfortunately, there are far too many examples of those very people abusing these tools. They shot the "sense of honor and duty" argument point blank just for allowing these things to exist in the first place. If what you say is t

While this was helpful and well done, I find it incredibly amusing that after I popped in my email, I was hit with very similar dark patterns trying to get me to pay for a Substack subscription, follow people, and share it. Touché?

Love that this at the top of HN right now. I understand having an option to do a call, but when it's mandatory just for a bigger customer to get access to a product, it makes little sense. It's like asking a fish to swim a littl

This is really wonderful and well made. The only change I'd make is to have the context window opened via ctrl + g to be on by default (w/ an option to toggle off).

> context length is the wrong criticism for these models You're right. What I'm getting at is the overall speed, efficiency, and accuracy of the storage, retrieval, and processing capability of the human brain.

Yes, I use LLMs every day. Primarily for coding (a mix of Claude and OAI). I was trying to implement a simple CSS optimization step to my JS framework's build system last night and both kept hallucinating to the point (literally invent

by rglover 2y ago
That belief is at odds with the mechanics of how LLMs work. It's not a question of more effort/investment/compute/whatever, it's just a reality of how the underlying systems work (non-deterministic). If you can find

by rglover 2y ago
Possibly, but that's going to require 100% consistent, accurate outputs (tricky as that's not the nature of LLMs). Otherwise, you'll have a lot of systems dependent on these orchestrators creating hard-to-debug mistakes up an

This is really exciting. It'd be awesome if the rebirth of American industrialism was tech hardware driven. It sounds like this being mass production ready is still a few years off, but kudos to Apple and TSMC for working to make this

BR is a masterpiece. First pulled a rip of Battle Royale 1 + 2 off of Limewire back in high school. It became the underground "crazy" movie we'd burn to cds and pass around to friends.

I'm mouth-agape at the opportunity incumbents are giving to small/indie teams (to build better, competing products). I had a feeling some version of this would happen as cheap cash dried up (and founding talent exited), but not to
