Are these blogs by AI for AI?

Do architects have to like laying bricks?

Would you say the same about any other engineering discipline? Those with actual qualification standards?

How would a model know who the third party is? How much context can we waste on world building for each request?

It's apple-centric tech bros discovering linux. If apple gets their shit together on the OS again, they'll be back in an instant. Until then, it's probably a good thing for the linux desktop overall.

That's low reasoning for a model, but max for a HN comment.

Buying nice things should not be underestimated :)

Complete control over what gets merged and worked on by the core team.

It's not only about the water, so there is no need to fixate on it.

That's a weird way to reason about it. Data centers polute their air, use up their water, increase their energy cost and make an unbearable noise in their neighborhood. But sure, they are simply anti progress for no reason.

That's an if, not a when. A very big, hugely improbable if. Nobody? really?

So this is the Xzibit meme of agent skills?

I don't see us tinkering with Pi in 5 years. Some standard solution will emerge, which will be amplified by models being trained specifically to work with it.
44.
by grim_io 24d ago
I don't think so. What I can see is a world where we end up with a Chromium-shaped harness, a fully featured standard implementation everyone builds against, because doing every single thing yourself would be crazy. The antithesis to P

Horses are faster than humans. I don't see them suddenly taking over based on that fact alone.

Waterboarding is just a packaging problem. Make it portable and convenient and those officers are going to love it.

None of those have poorly trained, masked, armed kidnappers snatching people off the streets and shooting their citizens. None of those are needed for enforcing immigration law. This is a choice, supported by a lot of people who should have

Ah, the law. Did the Stasi break the law? Forgive my comparison, but it illustrates the problem. The law cannot be allowed to become lawless itself, depriving the people of their rights to fast track the pre-determined punishment.

It doesn't bode well for the US to compare itself to others in this regard. The one place where any hard working person was welcome. What is the protectionism even for? The US doesn't have a great social system that can be exploit

We are probably talking past each other. I'm not proposing doing any exponential backoff retries, or even retries at all for internal services. In my mind, the retries with exponential backoff and jitter belong only on the end-client(V

Imagine the stories the currently ICE-detained could tell. Hunted in the streets like animals and stuck in cages, with no right to due process. Sure, not as bad. Woohoo.

Claude comments often contain the whole iterative chain of decisions that led to the current state. Useful for the LLM to know the "why", but not something a human would do, unless it's a very critical and confusing part of t

The typical ceiling for these is around a minute.

Why? You can retry, but there is nothing wrong with increasingly waiting slightly longer if we fail many times.

Maybe Clippy already was :(

DRM for your eyes == garbage idea.

Yes. It's about discrimination and dehumanizing everyday cruelty.

I swear, Thanos-snapping half of any LLM readme will always be an improvement.

I've lost all interest in editors. It doesn't matter to me anymore in which one I'm inspecting the clanker output from.

I assure you, there is no such thing as a book club at my job, especially not one focused on technical writing :)
