   For all the esotericism and downright weirdness of the rationalist community, you have to give it to them: they predicted all of this years or decades before anyone else was even thinking about it. (Let's not dwell too long on the self

   HN discussions are filled with negative-sentiment AI comments that quickly get upvoted regardless of their connection to reality.

   Is this not literally just Claude Code? I don't understand the hysteria.

   It's a shame because I think there a lot of valid, thoughtful critiques one could level at the Rat/EA community; but this was not that.

   The site is performing poorly for me. For example, the login page took 9 seconds to load, same with the home page.

    I have no idea what happens next if we create and horizontally scale superintelligence; one thing I do know for sure is it won't be "business as usual".

    That's a much less generous interpretation of his writing. "Yes we will birth superintelligence, but everything will just sort of work out for us humans". This seems like a silly take to me.

    I felt the same way in 2024-2025. Then Sonnet 4 was released, and things started feeling different. Opus 4.5 was another step change for me. Everything feels like it's accelerating, and timelines are getting crunched. I guess in some w

    I was able to repro one issue that could have been contributing to your broken experience - there's a slight delay between, for example, clicking text in a heading and having the "#" markdown decoration appear. This is to pre

    Thanks for trying it out! would you mind giving some steps that allow me to repro the issue? It's early days so i'm sure there are some rough edges, hopefully I can fix them quickly.

    Thanks for the heads up - I pushed up a fix to the hightlighting issue. I originally went with Milkdown (Prosemirror-based) for Atomic, the knowledge base project that I built Atomic Editor for. ProseMirror doesn't provide virtualizati

    Could you expand on the "substantial ops burden"? Let's say you're using a managed Postgres instance as the underlying data store, how substantial is the ops burden in that case? I understand that temporal is actually a

    Looks like this comment is touching a nerve. This community is progressing from "AI can't write code", to "Well, AI can write code but it's not really about the code". I wonder where the goalposts will be moved

    Tauri is great! this is my first Rust-based project and it took some real getting used to. But i love that Tauri does not ship with an entire chromium browser, and i love its focus on security.

    Local first means running Atomic with local models is not an afterthought. It’s a first class citizen that works just as seamlessly as running with a cloud provider - assuming you’ve done the work to provision the local models and their con

    This is .. honestly a great synopsis of Atomic and its design tradeoffs. Thanks! Giving commonplace a look.

    One can imagine an obsidian plugin of any arbitrary level of complexity, given it's written in a Turing-complete language.

    I'm not sure I understand the question. Regardless of what provider you choose - be it cloud based or local - you have to provide setup information such as host, authentication, etc. So it "defaults" to nothing; you have to s

    Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, I admit copywriting is not my forte. i'm a solo dev, I'm focusing most of the time and energy on the product itself. There are always 100 things I could be polishing for Atomic - social media presenc

    It has supported local LLMs from the beginning, it was not something that was just tacked on. I don't know what else to tell you. Your assumptions are just wrong.
