The marketing pushes which allude to vaguely seeming to assert capabilities of these products, and then the greater community calling skeptics of the technology crazy such as a prominent article previously discussed on HN some time ago, cer

To me, it is more specific to say that many futurists don't take into account the social and economic network effects of changes taking place. Many just act as if the future will continue on completely unchallenged in this current stat

This is my thing, I often thought of these views as a way to bridge organizational divides rather than technical ones. Still cool! But if you own everything you can do all kinds of other stuff just as easily.

Well they meant that I was conflating two things, and I was, because you can reference stylesheets to transform XML from one form to another, you can use it to render XML into HTML (or anything within limits), and that was the part that I w

I mentioned it elsewhere but tons of enterprise backend automation and integration has web browsers and web browser components in the critical path, yes.

I have personally witnessed web technology related components in the critical path of complex enterprise insurance systems. Setting aside things like the whole of .NET being steeped in web browser components, and the added complexity of bei

You can certainly use XSLT with https://www.w3.org/TR/voicexml20/ have you built software on any Linux platform? XSLT is required in so much stuff.

I think you're getting at a very often discussed ebb and flow between being extremely controlled vs extremely flexible. XML was astounding compared to system specific proprietary systems, and then as the need for formalism grew people

XSLT specifics? Yes, ubernerd ... Person who can't get a doctor's appointment because the interactive voice menu which is somehow now based on a browser engine and has a subtle bug caused by this change could be anyone.

Some of what your saying could be confusion on the part of many people about what a standard is and isn't... And I think that while I don't necessarily agree that Google shouldn't be involved, I think this confusion is in the

They may be talking about actually removing whole standards not just specifics of standards like this. FTP is close but it was always adjacent to web browsing. Perhaps HTTP 1.0 removal is closest, but is a different level of abstraction tha

Surely X isn't the sole source for this?

This community has no ability to separate researched information from conjecture, and especially on this topic since neural nets are a black box where we can never know if any behavior is fully intentional or not.

Straight WireGuard to a single point is completely not noticeable.

To be honest, I had the right idea back then... This technology has fundamental qualities that require it to provide inaccurate token predictions that are only statistically probable. They aren't even trying to change this situation ot

This is an underrated comment... Most all LLM stuff suffers from not having any ground truth, even with multiple agentic rag integrations.

They have or at least used to make their notebook format public, and I always thought if I ever see someone else adopt it then maybe the project will be worth looking at again. I think there could be better ways to capitalize on d3 but this

People are not owed prestige like being a CEO or fame. People are also never actually cancelled, but being cancelled has become a meme for many to aspire to. It is a shame when it happens to otherwise innocent people, but most everyone seem

Good thing we solved lipid disorders with Olean, Betamax gave us all superior home video, and you can monetize your HN comments with NFTs or else I wouldn't have any money to post!

You should try to get other people to make your demos is all I'm saying. I don't know why you keep inserting yourself either. Why didn't someone else post the thing you made? Were they waiting for you to do it or do you think
