Xbox controller support on the Steam Deck has worked seamlessly for me with 0 extra setup, I'm not sure what you're talking about? Streaming has been ok, but I've had the same issu…

In addition to the Z's everyone else pointed out, Scrabble boards are 15 tiles across. This is 16 letters. You fool. You utter gumdrop.

Breaking up a giant PR can be a tedious, time-consuming hassle, and in the past I could sympathize in practice if someone had a giant PR they didn't have time to decompose once the…

I'd really argue the bugs were introduced in version 5 but people were so excited by the promise of new features they sold well anyway.

I have talked my wife out of us both nearly impulse-buying a mini greenhouse at Costco multiple times. And the worst part is, I regret it. We need a greenhouse now and greenhouse p…

> " latest fad for layoffs" What are you referring to here? The latest fad before AI was crypto, or maybe "the metaverse" and I don't think anyone credited those for layoffs. Befor…

There's nothing stopping people from decorating their boutique stores (or personal blogs, portfolios, and fan websites) the way they want. And that's fun and delightful for me, as …

The P/E of that box is 1...This isn't a difficult calculation.

You're still manually posting? All of my HN posting, trolling, shitposting and spamming is taken care of by a fleet of bots I vibecoded in the last 5 minutes.

> Of course they would! If the P/E of a company is 1.1 it is overvalued by definition so why would anyone buy an over valued company? This is obviously untrue. Would you sell a box…

You obviously need to add your own footnotes trying to make sense of those footnotes, then anonymously donate it to a used bookstore.

You somehow identified the last possible, most obscure clue. Mario, Luigi, Rosalina, and Yoshi show up before that.

I'd ask them what tools they do use, but I doubt they'll see my comment; I'll see if I can mail it to them.

> curled out This is the kind of understated yet thoroughly disgusting imagery an LLM couldn't come up with on its own, great example.

Honest, non-confrontational, non-passive aggressive question: Have you used any of the latest models in the last 6 months to do coding? Or frankly, in the last year?

> But there is also bad QA: The most worthless QA I was forced to work with, was an external company, where I, as developer, had to write the test sheet and they just tested that. …

So many execs and marketing people seem to think customers explicitly "want AI". Most people do not want AI! Only a tiny segment of Middle Managers Looking To Leverage New Technolo…

Unlikely, since modern Hebrew doesn't have a letter for "w".

Have you tried UFO 50?

> I don't think most companies can resist the allure of more free data as bitter as it may taste. Mercor, Surge, Scale, and other data labelling firms have shown that's not true. P…

I get your point, but that was the exact logic of Effective Altruism and Sam Altman is now jailed for the Largest Fraud of All Time. It's a slippery slope.

In no way am I defending Palantir, but literally any random official or intern could've created this with any random AI generation model. It's not like the government is requiring …

For those that don't know even more, this interview never happened and this interviewer doesn't exist. It's a funny joke on the internet.
