Yes wouldn't an 11 years old say "I don't know", or start thinking about square shaped trees?, hmm. But this is the only AI that gives a good answer to: > Help me teach my parents cat to fly! > To teach a cat to fl

He got some support too, later: (from the Wikipedia article) "though most villagers taunted me at first, there were quite a few who lent me support later by giving me food and helping me buy my tools"

Interesting to read! > contributions One thing I think you and the other "AI math builders" have done, is to show how good the top models are at logics and reasoning. I didn't realize how good they are, until they solved a

That's how GitHub discussion works :- ) (or did you know?) Look here: https://github.com/jj-vcs/jj/discussions/ — by default, sorted by last activity. But you can also sort by newest, or by votes. For co

You can also have a tree view side-by-side with a flat view — see this comment (in this discussion): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48770861 If you click a comment in the flat view, the tree view jumps to that comment

I think they meant that different people can give you different and conflicting advice. Also, check out the Goomba fallacy. (The way you wrote "the advice was... now it is...")

Yes I guess there exists such blog posts. And that it varies from person to person of course (what they already know or dont). This blog post in particular though, I got so bored so I couldn't finish reading it. I gave it another quick

> was AI, but it was interesting nonetheless I suspect the prompt given to the AI was 3 sentences, maybe interesting sentences, and everything else was AI expanded, a waste of everyone's time? (Those who read everything)

Interesting, didn't know about that Github functionality. I'd like to not depend that much on Github, and instead I'm thinking about having some kind of archival repo where noisy boring historical stuff can be saved (but I&#x

The whole website was apparently AI generated 3 days ago [0], leaves me wondering if this is partly a HN bots upvotes manipulation experiment. Or people here really think an AI gend docs website is top news nowadays? Has the HN demographics

Aren't you overlooking the main point of the article?, the reason they migrated: > concurrency — eliminating data races essentially, which we had before. Really gnarly bugs > this is the one teams report most enthusiastically.
