    Speleology aside, just a few days ago in one of HN discussions I was told LLM-produced content is already indistinguishable from human-made. But I'm sure I would have pretty good c…

    Most people don't bake their own bread even if it's more approachable, and cheaper then vibecoding. Bread is just a recipe one may say. But in modern times have we ever witnessed d…

    I have my doubts about this. Brands are a about reputation, and reputation strongly affects responsibility when business decisions are made. If a manager decides to vibecode a solu…

    And "available information" translates to "the sources I trust provide information that ..." I guess you don't get the comparison cause cell towers aren't controversial anymore sin…

    >problem with conspiracy theories is not that they're based on a lack of trust, but that they're not rational. Rationality isn't some sort of absolute parameter, it's determined wr…

    "We can't trust them" is the foundation of practically every conspiracy theory, though, from times immemorial. I remember people protesting against cell towers, and it was exactly …

    This whole story is built on one wrong assumption: that there are some clear rules defining calendar shifts. As the author discovers at the end this history differs in different co…

    Thanks, now I see. No, that's not how it works. If a legislation designates you as responsible, you can outsource compliance implementation, but not the responsibility itself. Bank…

    Can you elaborate? I'm not sure I'm getting what is the point here. As I said, legal system rarely deals with 100%, it's not a requirement to make a law enforceable. Not telling th…

    I'd say that for now LLM-generated content is detectable, still at least. But anyway, "proven guilty" doesn't work as many people seem to believe. Often, if not most of the times, …

    There's a difference, yes. How big it is isn't really relevant question cause its simply an unnecessary tax on visitors.

    I can't help but notice that for a documentation organization framework/method it failed to produce its own good documentation. There are repetitive bloated texts with unnecessary …

    I don't think this is the logic of the parent, and BASIC wasn't a non-developer PL at all. It was simplified but followed those days' programming practices, and one may say was clo…

    You are right in a laboratory way of let's-assume-perfect-adversary, and you're not in a how-it-really-works way. I simply have my own RL exp in a bad repressive country on this to…

    You are describing monetization quality, not content quality. Printing has its moat, yes, which better protects it from copying, and process of consuming from interruptions, and cr…

    Which exact part of the state of affairs? Because if your point is that the current regime is propped by US assistance, it sounds fair, but would Egypt be a democracy if this milit…
