I stopped using Kagi news when I saw it has Russia Today as a source for many articles

> As an English-as-second-language speaker and writer How do you know it's actually better? I'm not trying to be condescending, but this reads to me like vibes :)

This is relevant information for this forum, for good or bad Apple has a lot of impact. I find your reaction strange, do you read news to be angry and/or afraid? :)

It was announced almost a year ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43398518 But it was subject to regulatory approval, that's been completed now.

> They get the team that built it and have more people on the AI initiative who are consumer-centric. Who are comfortable releasing systems with horrible security, while proudly st…

I don’t understand how id-ing the buyer helps? What is the age restricted good here? Are you saying that kids now buy their phones with pocket money without their parents knowing? …

I can't see how anyone can think "the exporters pay the tariff" makes any sense. TBH, we'll never know how many people thought it made sense because it didn't matter.

Reading the comments here I see almost everyone posting assumes this is a genuine interaction of an autonomous AI with the repo, not a human driving it. IMO this take is naive :)

I think this is important - these topics get traction because people like to anthropomorphise LLMs and the attention grab is 'hey, look at what they learned to do now'. It's much l…

There was discussion about this here a couple of weeks ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46458936 Steve Yegge's a famous developer, this is not a joke :) You could say he i…

> The historical pattern suggests cognitive abilities shift rather than disappear. Shift to what? This? https://steve-yegge.medium.com/welcome-to-gas-town-4f25ee16d...

Not specific to this IPv6 event, but I was wondering what happens to public services during these Internet shutdowns? Does everything stop or it's mostly business as usual minus so…

I read Rob’s message as against the AI industry, triggered by this email - it is ‘AI is bad’. This startup didn’t spend the trillions he’s referencing.

Lex Friedman recently did an interview with Durov: https://lexfridman.com/pavel-durov/ I listened to bits of it and I was disappointed by the lack of push back from Lex who was sup…

Speaking of agents and tests, here's a fun one I had the other day: while refactoring a large code base I told the agent to do something precise to a specific module, refactor with…

Your point to not rely on good intentions and have systems in place to ensure quality is good - but your comparison to humans didn't go well with me. Very few humans fill in their …

Jetbrains IDEs have 'Local History' that keeps a record of all edits to files - I looked in mine now and I have changes from more than 3w ago :)

They probably mean new code not the entire codebase, but even so I think those numbers are ridiculous given my experience. Is there any evidence of this (anywhere, not just MS or G…

I will guess that you are generating orders of magnitude more lines of code with your software than people do when building projects with LLMs - if this is true I don't think the a…

Why does the title say 'in London'? Everything else I've read in the thread refers to Manchester. I agree with other posters, unless there's a clear strategy to cash in on the equi…

Effects of this are felt today - policing of the population is worse in the countries that were either Nazi occupied or communist compared to the UK. My point was that measures lik…

Labour is worse if you look at the past years. They were pushing for harsher restrictions in the pandemic and they said this bill is 'watered down' by the conservatives.

I am so disappointed by this. I moved to the UK from Eastern Europe and it's hands down better in almost every way if you consider personal freedom, in my opinion. In terms of poli…

It's not only the tories: 'Labour pledges to toughen ‘weakened and gutted’ online safety bill' https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2023/jan/01/labour-pl... It's very dishearteni…
