Thank you! Okay yes well this manifesto is a contradiction. Yes good let's keep empowering ppl by putting AI into their hands, I love the opening. No bad we don't do that by handing you all our personal context to make these agent

"AI-generated code" will become shorthand for code-that-wasn't-verified-and-organized-by-a-competent-human.

The secret to great interview questions and challenge tests is keeping them secret. Posting them on HN and getting them onto the front page puts them in jeopardy.

It was the first programmable electronic digital computing machine, yes. Special-purpose computing machines had been around since the 1600's (where they were used as textile weaving machines I think).

It was more of a special-purpose calculation machine than a general purpose computer, as we understand them which are based on von Neummann's architecture.

Love this share! Thanks for helping ppl better understand what it really means when folks say "ChatGPT Discovered..."

The framing in these posts is nonsense. ChatGPT isn't doing shit. Human mathematicians using ChatGPT are breaking boundaries.

"Winning"? A nonsense word here that isn't defined. What is China doing in the AI space that is supporting livelihoods? Compare that to US companies doing the same. Otherwise we're just talking about information.

This is great content. Have you thought about a second income stream by teaching prospective tech business owners on Youtube? It's a model ppl are successfully using?

It speaks to me of these fascinating Jungian shadows, where a thing/person has a front claiming to do their thing and in some non-obvious way they facilitate the opposite. YC mints companies, founders, it disrupts. Its shadow feeds you

They have a $5bn credit line, and this means the creditor might increase the interest on it. It's better described as "it increases operational risks to SpaceX". When they face some future difficulty, the odds they can come o

Yes okay, good luck with that. The strategic importance to nations is far too high, it just means astronomy will evolve to a thing where it's done from space. But if you want to be the region where you support these ideas and undermine

Fundamentally they are not sufficiently attached to the people's reason for using an oven. They are only attached to the goal of staying alive and making money. And when the balance shifts slightly more to the users need, the whole ope

There is an interesting interplay between mystery and motivation. Churches/theologians generally are good with this interplay.

When you first lose everything, in the process you end up having to pawn expensive principles like that, so when other things like this happen, it's easy to seize the opportunity.

One of the best ads of seen is for the Ava AI Sales Agent. I have to stare at it because of its location near one of my favorite spots. They've found a model with dead eyes that perfectly capture the existential dread you feel as you s

You're essentially making the case here that your work is now automated into a set of one-shot actions that can be performed by an AI model and your job has become to selectively apply these actions. That says either a) we don't d

It's adorable that you think Iceland somehow maintains itself without power. In the 1976 Cod War with the UK, where we the UK asserted dominion over 200 miles of their water with our superior navy, Iceland countered with its superior p

All you get here is some market signal from 1 or 2 posts if you already know how to do it. Most of these responses are garbage.

The reality that a contested position is determined by whoever can assert the claim, isn't a moral choice, it's simply an observable political fact.

For the same reason all land ownership across the world and across the ages and across all animal species has been determined.

After 400 years of Ottoman rule, we the Brits took that region because we won WWI. We gave some to different Arab groups, and some to the Israelis. The muslim religious head of Jerusalem wrote fan mail to Hitler advocating for the Final Sol

It's not their domain, it's the domain of the Commander-In-Chief and his entire apparatus. The War Department are meant to be more focused around the tools they bring to the table. The first line in the article describes a crisis

The beauty IMO of LLMs as a computational surface, is the ease of generating the data to feed it. Everyone understands how to create natural language records already.

Simulations are only as good as the reality representations they are based on. If they keep using tactical nukes, they've been fed by weak data. Do the war games include the broader economic and politic environments that military succ
