This. The world has no political and economic frameworks to face AGI and robotics. What democracy when the AGI is smarter and more aware of the big picture then all the 'demos' (people) combined ? It would only make sense to hand

Interestingly how everyone is talking about 'Google', this faceless entity.. but in essence there are humans who work there, employees not doing their job properly. Lazy, detached, disinterested .. with no consequences for coastin

Of course I don't have a right to Twitter. But I do have the right to the public information posted by people who intend it to be public information. They're not posting 'on X', they're posting to the public and the

Why have we let X (et al) have total control over the content posted by the users ? Why do the users agree to the limits imposed by them and let the platform decide who gets to see the content they posted ? Because they're offering the

This has been true for years on Amazon and is true for most big services now. Over time the concept of search has mutated from 'locate the exact item I'm looking for' to 'show me a list of semantic search results'.

My only practical contribution to fixing this issue is to upvote this article.. and write a message on HN. I'm in Spain. I really hope that after this summer, people of Europe will wake up and make fixing the climate their highest prio

There's this magnetic appeal to use a visual graph editor as the UI paradigm for your app.. it seems to fit so many problems well. Yet if you complicate the problem just a notch, the graph becomes big fast and that renders like complex

I was expecting to learn something new from this article, instead I got a bunch of numbers and a careful number of deaths from smoke 'by the end of the century' prediction. What end of the century ? The way things are going, these

I'm looking at this situation strictly as 'What's possible today'. If a 1M lines code rewrite from one language to another goes into production in 1 month, that's a very strong signal that the models are now insanel

A better title would be 'My emotions on the Bun Rust Rewrite', since the article feels like an emotional reaction rather than a thoughtful analysis of the situation. Give it some time.. I'm rooting for Zig either way, even th

A bit meta - the names in this article made me chuckle: Goat Systems, Cowboy State Daily, Cupriavidus gilardii, Frank Strong the Board's Manager and the Crow Creek and Dry Creek facilities. This is gold for a comedy sketch :)

because it's unusable in practice. It's fun as an idea and as a toy, but when you try to use such a visual system to do work, you quickly realise that text is way more flexible and simpler to operate on.

This is and has always been inevitable with tech. Politics can only postpone people's inherent desire to control and dominate and powerful tech makes this easier and cheaper. We (the tech people) have built the perfect tools to central

It depends on what your function does with that memory. If the fn expects any kind of structure at that address, you and your callers are on your own, compiler can't help if the caller passes the wrong thing. Worse, acessing that memo

Have you ever used other (modern) programming languages ? In a lot of languages, you achieve the same with 1 line of code. It's not about familiarity, it's about the fact that it's a long and convoluted incantation to get the

I was very curious to see what C++ 26 brings to the table, since I haven't used C++ in a while. When I saw the 'no boilerplate' example, the very first thought that came to my mind: This is the ugliest, most cryptic and confu

Claude code deleted the database once for me. It wasn't production, but it did contain data I needed. The good thing was that I made a backup of the database right before running claude. I told it that I made a backup, so it decided to

I use my Brompton in ways which are not on its label. Besides rides in the city, I take it on long 100+km rides on the road, on gravel, forests, rocks, mountains. It has taken me on every street of Barcelona and around it many times over. I

Who asked for this ? I'm genuinely curious. "If only I had an agent which does everything at work for me". The logical continuation would be 'then I wouldn't have to work', right ? No. Just as with coding agen

You can't escape the rat race even if you hide in a cave these days. Life like that is no longer possible, at least not in Europe. I didn't write that to shame anyone. I happen to like my life in the city with all the negatives.

It's very tempting to agree to the 'gambling' part, given that both a jackpot and progress towards the goal in your project will give you a hit of dopamine. The difference is that in gambling 'the house always wins'

Great work! Obviously the goal of this is not to replace sqlite, but to show that agents can do this today. That said, I'm a lot more curious about the Harness part ( Bootstrap_Prompt, Agent_Prompt, etc) then I am in what the agents h
