Well I think the main important argument here is you shouldn't use the package management. A third party package manager would be even more concerning to use imo. I generally try to stay away from the typescript world so unfamiliar wit

I don't think anyone is saying that you should depend on stale dependencies. You should not hand off your responsiblity to untrustworthy package managements services though. Evidence of the failure of automated package management is th

Rust finally got hit... This was motivating me to swap away from Rust towards because of the huge number of dependencies. It seemed inevitable. Ginger bill was right, https://www.gingerbill.org/article/2025/09&#x2F

Man good motivating schedule. Are you married as well? I notice this is missing the wife time. I feel like I really have to wreck my sleep to get worktime between wife and kids.

This article feels slightly incoherent. You want high quality precise writing and to use an LLM to generate it? Feels like those are diametrically opposed

I was also getting confused. No obvious marker to close card so I instinctively pressed back twice and got back to HN. Would try to keep exploring but I'll definitely forget and do it again.

Man this hit me right after discovering https://xn--gckvb8fzb.com . I feel like I need to start tracking thing I buy and how much I use them to really get a handle on my con00merism problem.

Yea this is a good one but it can be so hard. Seems obvious that constant information streaming outside of silencing your own thoughts also makes the moments where you do have to sit in silence lower quality. I recently listened to the Hamm

Comparing LLM output to compiler output is such a stale meme by now that it's surprising to see people still saying it. Obviously a deterministic translation of a higher level programming language to machine code is different than the

It does somewhat depend on the application size. Seems to me that for regular software projects (that aren't enterprise SaaS) a good programmer will create better software than Claude. Maybe the dehumanizing way to say it is that human

Whether data-centers and AI are actually beneficial is still somewhat of an open question with large groups on both sides. So unclear how beneficial data centers are to the general public.

Do you actually believe this? This is pretty similar to people that think free will is fake. For example: >In fact, I strongly suspect that i am merely a statistical machine picking words from a learned distribution. This is a completely

I disagree. A good developer that heavily uses AI just becomes average without realizing it. To remain a good programmer you have to keep actually programming.

Has an issue where the last fishes fight shows up during the wait for the current fishes fight. More importantly how can you afford this? Seems like every call goes to an LLM? Seems like it would be pretty expensive for a free game.

I definitely support maintainers defending themselves but this seemed just like a petty slap at LLM users. From my understanding, any user who used this testing library was vulnerable to the prompt injection. Overall LLMs are certainly a ne

Yea good explanation of what I meant. I understand the moral/ethical arguments against LLMs and they are compelling but the actions of the maintainer above seemed just like a petty swing at LLMs just for the sake of it. Not very ration

I don’t think so but maybe? I do use them in daily work so I might be compromised. But I also generally dislike their impact on humanity and try to limit my use where feasible for my own brain’s sake. Personally I think Andrew Kelly’s take

I can’t remember where I read or watched this, but the argument was that the main problem with a lot of software is simply code base size. Once your code base is large enough , it can no longer really be understood as a whole which leads to
