Can't they feed the code to ChatGPT and ask it to spot the mistakes, though?

I could do this, or I could just throw good old React or a derivative framework at whatever UI I have to build and be done with it.

The “GPT is going to wash away everything” discourse sounded familiar here on HN and of course, I had read it multiple times on your posts bordering on spam. I don’t know if your tech is going to wash away anything, and I do wish you good l

Very sorry to hear that, though you seem to have a fairly good outlook about it. Excuse me if it's callous to ask this at this time, but as I've been observing layoffs and been hearing that people are immediately shut down from th

Not OP, but I've done ~16:8 intermetinent fasting (aka skipping breakfast) many times during my life, and have almost always experienced morning crankiness like you. At times I've felt the crankiness has been good; the increased a

They're concerned about profits as any capitalist enterprise is, but if it makes you feel any better they are trying to innovate and find new revenue streams (ex: in digital technologies related to lifestyle and events - that's ho

I have worked for one of the world's most important alcohol distributors, and have been in contact with high execs in the org. They are concerned that young people are not drinking as much as before, not the other way around.

I read in an Atlantic piece that there was a "sex recession" [1] - many sociological studies show that people are having less sex than decades prior. It's counter-intuitive, but the data in the article meets my anecdotal obse

I don’t think that’s a massive problem - you can get away without ultra-personalistic selling and focus the sales attention on your product/service and USPs. In my experience, what most people (myself included when I started) are horri

I freelance and hire other freelancers. There is a meta-job in managing business, and more importantly, selling, which I think that many people with an average intelligence and EQ would be able to do and eventually make the same or more tha

I'll soon be releasing a CLI app that creates embeddings for entire Youtube channels and actually looked whether Supabase offered a pgvector plugin, but seeing as a couple weeks ago it didn't, I ended up going for Pinecone. I will

Different strokes for different folks, I guess. I work remotely, but I walk to an office. I also like to have a separation of work and home. Also I'm very physically active, I do crossfit 4x a week right next to my house. I find it eas

by arcturus17 4y ago
I already walk to work, because working remotely doesn't mean necessarily working from home, and I could do that even if I worked at home.

by arcturus17 4y ago
I can do that on my own without the need to be compelled by anyone, and in fact I walk to the office every morning (I work remotely, but go to a co-working space), with the difference that I have the freedom to do otherwise at any given mom

I consider myself 100% a remote guy, but c'mon. Isn't it reasonable for people in an org to be in the same physical space a few times a year.

I do not question for a second that Carmack is a computing genius, but “murky” is an understatement. There is nothing of technical, scientific or business value in this interview. It’s just generic words strung together.
