I will concede that I missed the "every" in the GP comment - and you're right, that by itself is probably an unreasonable standard. I do think there is more that Google could do to address what most of us would call "kno

There are levels to this though. You wouldn't hold a landlord accountable if it was a surprise that a crime took place, but if they were aware that some of their tenants were committing crimes and just "choosing not to ask about i

This is how software trends go. AI has already had several of these; it started with every site needing their own chatbot powered by AI. A decade ago, every product was trying to integrate some sort of blockchain. It takes time for them to

I'm not familiar with DisplayMate, and the site appears to be hugged. Unsure what this is doing on the front page, but for any similarly lost folks: > DisplayMate is the Worldwide Leader in Video Diagnostics and the World's mos

I recognize that I'm missing that part of the context, but it still surprises me that the answer to that is relatively global surveillance. In the current state of things, homelessness is perfectly public and observable, right? And so

Usually, I'd say this sort of comment is not really contributing much to the conversation, but in this case I agree with the sentiment. With a lot of these posts about the surveillance tech that's becoming increasingly prominent e

Having owned an Impala of that generation, and having seen so many around for so long, this is exactly where my mind went. These are a dead ringer for their rear lights.

Man, you've been on a streak of these purely vitriolic posts. Maybe take a break from the internet for a bit? These posts read like someone who needs help.

I think that the idea is each action uses more tokens, which means that users hit their limit sooner, and are consequently unable to burn more compute.

If you're not aware, the GP was a reference to the original Dropbox HN post, wherein BrandonM said, effectively, "why wouldn't I just use rsync?" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8863

I would argue that the first couple of these could be considered "features." Not sure what you mean about the bench seat - the "regular cab" configuration is a 3 person bench.

While a lot of these ideas are touted as "good for the org," in the case of LLMs, it's more like guard rails against something that can't reason things out. That doesn't mean that the practices are bad, but I would

A similar, non-LLM battle, is a global find and replace, but _not quite identical_ everywhere. Do I just go through the 20 files and do it myself, or try to get clever with regex? Which is ultimately faster...

No kidding, the entire thread seems to be "you don't know what you're doing and you haven't done any research," in the face of responses saying "correct, this is the beginning of the process, where we do the re

I actually think it's ironic for precisely that reason. Similar to covering music, there is a legal precedent for making books available in public libraries - though most cover artists don't pay the royalties, and in this case thi

This strikes me as a bit ironic, if you're serious, as you list your current work as covering the entirety of the Beatles discography. Are you paying them for the rights?

I'm surprised I don't see any comments here to this effect yet: isn't this just AMP 2.0? Website authors don't want their content scraped and rehosted by a 3rd party, even when that 3rd party claims it's for their o

Maybe just me but seeing side by side "spreadsheets are all you need" and ".ai" seem to be somewhat uh... competing claims.

This is just fundamentally not the case most of the time. LLMs guess where you're going, but so often what they produce is a "similar looking" non sequitur relative to the lines above it. It guesses, and sometimes that guess

I agree with the position that most people are not coming from "elite" schools, as someone who hires in the midwest. I still much prefer someone with a four year school (and, as the other poster mentioned, internships) to a bootca

I think you might be mistaking the "thin blue line" concept with the "blue / all lives matter" in this case, thin blue line is neither new nor newly popular with BLM.

In my own experience, I'm the oldest of five and was very much pushed to go to college in a family where my dad, his brothers, and one of my brothers are carpenters. Another of my brothers is a manual machinist. On this side of things,

I'm hoping the latter half of that was a joke, but please, let's not further extend the awful trend of pushing every part of life being a subscription. I understand the argument as a way to sustain the business, but I don't t
