John Carmack is my spirit animal. I like reading his thoughts because they give me strange insight into the way he thinks "sideways" sometimes - even if I disagree with them, I always enjoy an outside perspective.

Well, that's potentially horrifying. I would love for someone to attempt this in as controlled of a manner as possible. I would assume it's possible for anyone using Google DNS servers to also trigger some type of metadata inspect

falsified paperwork is better than no paper trail in the event planes start falling out of the sky - spotting one moderate falsification could very well lead to further verification when it comes to investigations deemed important by the pu

My argument is primarily against commenters on HN who claim Firefox to be unusable, bug-filled, and then blame Mozilla for the current Blink-based browser apocalypse. You feel that Firefox doesn't have a bunch of features that you woul

I've had this conversation at least three times on HN. I'm convinced anyone who says that Firefox has a thousand issues simply doesn't use Firefox. But, I'm always open to being wrong. Can you point out the specific issu

Can you give some examples? Because personally, I don't remember any period where personal projects weren't normally hacked together, but my experience only goes back to the early 2000s. It would be interesting to hear your memori

I feel this has been the case for 20 years, when a whole generation was shoveled into the Comp Sci dream.

If senior management feels their destiny is not in their control, they're doing it wrong. The best management don't always have the most expertise - but the good ones have an uncanny ability to know when they should defer, when&#x

I agree with this article. But, I do think it's important to understand that these tools do have value - especially when learning. I also think a lot of the issues raised will improve when we can increase context length. Googling probl

Ironic that JPMorgan Chase demands suppliers improve security while neglecting basic practices, like crediting vulnerability researchers [1]. With 18% YoY profit growth in 2024 [2], they could easily allocate additional resources to drive m

I'm not an expert in embedded systems, but I do work on them at a very low level, and I can't be sure 100% of my code would differential from the RTEMS code base any more than libogs's. That doesn't mean they didn't

I'd be surprised if modding frameworks don't start popping up via reverse engineering efforts. Someones gonna get annoyed at having to manage inventory against limited carry weight, and end up in a 3 months side project. Respect t

These comments made me realize my viewpoints surrounding this issue are heavily based on the American legal system being very binary, with the majority of tech companies going all or nothing. Appeal your way up to the supreme court, and pra

You're right. If there are methods to get creators paid, while ensuring unfettered access to all - it absolutely should happen. The legal system in America doesn't have a good track record of nuance, especially when nuance is nece

You may not have found ways to make AI work for you in your workflows, but millions of others have. It's not perfect, but it's useful to everyone I know that has made a meaningful attempt to experiment, discarding the bad, and int

At some point, we have to look at this pragmatically. To me, it's not about FAANGs getting over on the every man, it's about making sure we maintain the opportunity of playing on the same field, with the same resources.

When Roger Bacon discovered what Gunpowder was capable of, he kept it to himself - he thought that once the poor knew how to make gunpowder, the poor would make weapons to destroy them. We cannot let that happen with AI technology, and it i

It seems that most people on this site believe that this is a good thing, but all this restriction would mean is that for the next while - the only companies able to afford mass licensing would be in the SPY 500, and that's assuming th

Firefox+uBO on Fedora/W11 here, with Firefox being my primary browser for close to 8 years. I only run in to an issues maybe once a year, where I have to pop open Edge/Chrome for some random edge cases to work. I've used Fire

My initial testing was with charts - I've been waiting on local vision models to be good enough to feed technical documents and my initial testing is looking very good. Example: https://i.imgur.com/1ETREP9.png

I assume approaching his guests as a layman allows his viewers to scratch the surface of tech/science/topics potentially inaccessible to people outside of the normal scope.
