Regarding the Pareto frontier and related benchmarks, I have a hard time taking anything seriously that claims that Opus is anywhere near the intelligence of Fable. Are there any benchmarks that haven't just been benchmaxxed that more

Definitely feels like there’s a particular narrative being pushed on HN today.

Nobody is forcing people to be employees of startups. They choose to do it of their own free will. If they think they can generate immense value from their own ideas they are free to go try to do that. Hiring people to do a job for a wage

It’s difficult to determine which individuals are involved and even if you manage to do that they almost certainly live in countries without extradition.

The US drastically prefers the economic impact of AI over enforcing this… You can get away with quite a lot if you’re creating trillions in GDP. That’s just the world we live in whether we like it or not.

Let’s say you’re a democrat (or republican, w/e) who lives in a district that’s 50-50 dem/rep. Then maps get redrawn so your district is 80-20. Is your vote worth the same as it was before? Is it a good or bad thing that only ~10%

can’t help but see this thread next to the Erdos one and feel like someone’s trying to tell us something :)

nah. we never had a business plan and are still going strong 11 years later. 99.999% is a gross exaggeration of reality. we’ll never actually have this data, but I bet there isn’t much correlation if any between having a business plan and b

Rejecting any packages newer than X days is one nice control, but ultimately it'd be way better to maintain an allowlist of which packages are allowed to run scripts. Unfortunately npm is friggen awful at this... You can use --ignore-s

Please don't override the browser's default scroll behavior. It's so jarring and basically never a good idea.

If you use eslint and tell it how to run lint in CLAUDE.md it will run lint itself and find and fix most issues like this. Definitely not ideal, but sure helps.

This isn’t strictly an AI problem, there are definitely human engineers who gold plate. At least with AI it doesn’t slow down velocity.

depends, if you don’t clean up the logs and monitor that cleanup will it eventually hit the p&l? eg if you fail compliance audits and lose customers over it? then yes. it still eventually comes back to the p&l.

This example feels more like a bug in the law itself that should be corrected. If this behavior is acceptable then it should be legal so we can avoid everyone the hassle in the first place. I bet AI would be great at finding and fixing thes

By mentioning MongoDB you’re going to trigger so many people who haven’t informed themselves on MongoDB since 2014. It works just fine as a production database. You can still have relationships and strict schemas… I just don’t understand th

I mean if you’re going to write algos that trade the first thing you should do is check whether they were successful on historical data. This is an interesting data point. Market impact shouldn’t be considered when you’re talking about trad
