Not claiming the author doesn't. My claim is that this can be done by most people, and they can do it WITHOUT understanding any of the topics you mentioned.

This is how they begin: "Make me a full implementation of a unique programming language." Then they QA, prompt, and continue the loop until they have something. Understanding the code is NOT needed.

of course it's not a one shot prompt. But most people can do this with pure AI imo.

I know we need to stay positive for these show HN things because Dang said so. But how valuable are these when anyone can churn out one of these things with AI. I get how it's valuable to show off work, but it's also like looking

This is a stupid single minded philosophy. What if the new non-boring technology has an exclusive feature you need? What if it's genuinely better? It's a case by case basis. I wonder why people try to encapsulate these things into

This is a temporary bottleneck. AI is moving so fast that this will change. Wait six months and this article is no longer relevant. About a year ago most people were still typing code. Having an agent do ALL code was crazy. Within a year or

Same. But usually if I need to read code, I end up telling my agent to summarize it for me.

The trendlines are moving away from this. It's all happening so fast that not every company is on the same page, but from what I see we are quickly converging on not writing anymore code. My entire company for example does not write a

This is true. I'd like metrics on this though. It could be that LLMs find go easier so they end up writing better code and rarely hitting static errors like a human would in rust. IT could be through scientific measurements that the be

I have an agent read most of the code as well. The agent explains things to me in plain english. The default sentiment is humans should read code it's more progressive and a leap of faith to start giving that up. Obviously, I get why y

I agree, but this doesn't justify anything. Saying rust is better because it "just is" won't convince anyone. I'd like to know why you think it's better.

Oh shit, let me dial it back: "Just ludicrous" not the most ludicrous statement ever. Also I have no interest in what you have to say.

People like to polarize themselves to one extreme. Plenty of HN people call Elon Musk "pure evil." It's the most ludicrous statement ever. Let me be clear: with electric cars and solar, elon musk has done more net good for th

I feel we can get around this. Either in the system prompt telling claude to dumb down the language or training the model itself to talk in more layman terms to bring us to understanding rather then assuming we understand much of it already

Well then what can I say? I show you the logical connection: 1 + 1 = 2, and you still find it nonsensical then the only conclusion is: you are illogical.

Is that really a big deal? Someone who monetizes me saying don’t film me?
107.
by threethirtytwo 2mo ago
It does to me. What if someone threatens to bomb the statue of liberty. You have the freedom to say that, but the cost is people have the freedom to listen and record. The freedom to record affectively tempers freedom of speech and stops pe

Maybe they make exceptions for murder, but in general, wiretapped evidence is dismissible.

freedom of press. It has to do with freedom of speech, because recording a speech is the counterpart to that. Should I be able to have the freedom to threaten someone with my speech but then have the ability to censor a recording of that? S

Bro, read the article. As much as I hate corporations, this is not there fault. It's women who don't like perverts using the glasses and the perverts who use these glasses to look at women. This is a phenomenon among the masses o

I don't want this that bad. I want the agent to have open access to my system because it actually does important administrative things for me. It is THAT convenient and powerful. Here's what I want: REALTIME OBSERVABILITY/POW

That quotation is coming from programmers themselves. Managers and execs aren’t saying this it’s the programmers and coders themselves making the claim that coding was never the hard part. It is still an insult though. It’s an insult to the

Is what he said wrong? Why don’t you attack his argument rather than his background. Not snark. I want to see the holes in what he says and I literally don’t care about who he is. You must be anti ai among other things.

No this is not true. There is an evolutionary reason why people lie to themselves. Look at the world. Almost everyone believes in religions. The world lies to themselves on an unprecedented scale. If accepting the truth had an evolutionary

Before AI we lived a world where a steak took two months to perfect. Now we live in a world where it’s only 90 percent perfect but it takes 1 hour to cook. Obviously one way is going to and has already taken over the other way. But if you l

Most software work is job related and business related. You are paid to work not to enjoy. Because of this the future of software will most likely be overtaken by AI because the business aspect of it will overtake the enjoyment aspect of it

The future of software is fixing bugs and security issues in production. Many companies will be accepting this new paradigm because of raw speed. Something that could take say 4 years to fully mature will now take less than a year. But the

Jobs creation. That's another way to think about it. There are, of course, better jobs to be created than military though, but job creation is still a factor.

Of course but for obvious mistakes like this one it’s more likely a human hallucinated than an LLM

by threethirtytwo 2mo ago
He hallucinated. This is how you verify non AI nowadays. AI is so good that if you see an hallucination as obviously wrong like this one it’s a sign it’s written by a human.
