To be a contrarian, you could possibly become very famous if you swam across the Pacific Ocean or even walked across Siberia. Not sure on the McDonald's though, might be harder to get sponsorship for that.

Yeah this one kinda hurts.

Incredibly misleading title, practically click bait.

Yeah this is what I do. This article feels like crazy overengineering for something that's not really a problem

What specifically about this feels AI generated. It might be, IDK, but I'm not seeing any tells, so wondering if you could expand.

Love it. The grid is cool but I think it needs to be more transparent.

I'm not sure what you're saying here. You can use Claude Code on Linux.

So...it's a Chromebook. With "ai".

The title is just flat out wrong. The author isn't going back to writing code by hand, they're plopping some new stuff into their CLAUDE.md to "fix" the issues they see AI is having.

Homegrown systems are expensive to maintain and usually still fail to match up to the commercial options available at this point. LMS's are also just really complicated pieces of software. I worked on my university's own version a

I agree, but I think it's for a different reason than what the author says: LLMs are a very leaky abstraction compared to other levels, meaning it's much harder to convey the true intent of logic you are trying to encode through n

The "earlier" and "later" labels really confused me because I think they could be interpreted either way. Also the AI art is corny. But I'm guessing this is all just AI generated

This is the way. The biggest issue is that it's easy to disable if you have no self control, but I guess an official setting would be the same way.

I don't necessarily disagree with the premise here, but the other makes the claim that people love to work hard based on their experience founding startups. People who gravitate towards that undoubtedly like to work hard, seems like sa

In Utah it's atypical to not have just as much if not more snow in March than in April. The snow pack in the mountains should last all the way until August. This year will likely be very bad for wildfires.

These tools actually make me more interested in CS fundamentals. Having strong conceptual understanding is as relevant as ever for making good judgement calls and staying connected with your work.

The real problem with Spotify's DJ is that, if you use it a lot, it gets into a feedback loop where it keeps playing the same songs that it serves you up because it thinks you like them. It's pretty bad at finding new music which

Yes! This is very obviously AI. Even in the last week there have been several submissions that have this exact same style. Also, the text on the site is obviously AI, em-dashes and all. I don't have a problem with people using the tool

The sales are definitely a huge draw. I don't know of any other product that can get marked down over 50% semi-regularly like video games can. It makes it feel like an incredible value, in comparison to everything else we spend money o

As others have noted, the problem is often with keeping servers running. It's impossible to predict how successful a game will be in the long term, so the publisher can't make any claims to it's longevity. And, it doesn'

"Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space."

Why is a post by some rando on Reddit considered quality news, worthy of reaching the front page of HN? This is just comment bait. The discussion is fine, but all I see is anecdotal conjecturing.

I get confused when I see stances like this, because it gives me the sense that maybe people just aren't using coding tools efficiently. 90% of my usage of Copilot is just fancy autocomplete: I know exactly what I want, and as I'm
