I think if it's well built by experts it doesn't deserve the "vibe coded" label even if it was built with agentic tools.

They recently tried to upstream an improvement to zig, but were prevented from doing so because zig has a hard and fast "no AI code" rule. Whether you think this response is trying…

Gemini's best ability is it's 3d spatial reasoning. It's downright terrible at a lot of things (toolcalling is an absolute nightmare), but it consistently wins in stuff like 3d mod…

This is a psyop to recruit more Australians I'm sure of it

People are mad at openAI cooperating with the pentagon while anthropic put their foot down over their red lines.

I'm wondering how this plays out in practice. Does the administration decide to strongarm contractors into cutting all ties? Will that extend to someone like google who provides co…

Weirdly I feel like partially because of this it feels more "human" and more like a real person I'm talking to. GPT models feel fake and forced, and will yap in a way that is like …

Companies are not comparing it straight to juniors. They're more making a comparison between a Senior with the assistance of one more more juniors, vs a Senior with the assistance …

the distinction here is mainly jets vs props.

I agree with you functionality wise, but a video showing it in use would be a good idea so those of us away from our midi devices can at least see it in action.

I wish I could do this. Do you even use a flip phone or anything? Or simply no cell phone?

Contextually no one is using nanometers in aviation nav applications. Many aviation systems are case insensitive or all caps only so capitalisation is rarely an important distincti…

No one is using nanometers in aviation navigation. Quite a few aviation systems are case insensitive or all caps only so you can't always make a distinction. In fact, if you say "m…

And as always, when problems get solved, other problems get revealed. We didn't even really know about cancer until life expectancies got to the point where dying in your 30s is a …

At the enterprise level my understanding is that PlanetScale can operate within your environment directly instead of as a pure service.

bold of you to assume I'd ever read an article rather than just skimming the comments

Not sure if he had this turned off beforehand or if it's because it's on the front page of HN, but there's no slots available. Not that I was personally going to book one! I'd love…

I'm the same, I've basically upgraded on release or shortly thereafter to every version of windows since Windows XP, and the only one that actually felt bad and I rolled back was V…

I feel like every time this device shows up I need to yell from the rooftops how dangerous(and illegal) some of the wifi and Bluetooth attacks can be. Even if it's totally baffling…

Can't wait for the stories of how this broke baseball analytics software that assumed that a single player will never play for both teams in a match.

IMO there needs to be personal criminal responsibility for safety related issues in an engineering org like this. We did this in New Zealand a few years back, you can get prosecute…

This actually has a semantic purpose, it's not just about bike shedding. CSS classes, if applied to the same element, will prefer the class that's defined later in the CSS file. Th…

The terms "cleared to land" and "cleared for takeoff" are extremely specific (a regulation written in blood like many aviation rules), but "cross runway" and "line up and wait" als…

This is the "your job won't be taken away by AI, it will be taken away by someone who knows how to leverage AI better than you"

It's non-standard but I'd argue that the weird structure was designed to enable this exact type of decision to be made by the board. The non-profit board is a peer of investors lik…
