I agree. The main function of a component should describe what it does, similar to describing the algorithm in natural language. I have been following this pattern with success. It…

As if one's market value is always coherent with their skills. There are so many variables that plays a role on how much one earns: where you live, negotiation skills, marketing sk…

Sorry, I didn’t want to sound too sarcastic and negative: I don’t disagree with you. But looking from a broader timescale it is clear that in general we’re speeding up our technolo…

Surely we can say that about our last 10s years of our human existence.

Why most people are blind to the most important point of those models: the progress is moving at astonishing pace. IMO it is a useless discussion to debate about the current SOTA o…

Being honest, I am not that much concerned with what can I do as individual. If sh*t hits the fan we’re going to have to solve this at societal level, not individual. As others alr…

I agree. I’m also not happy with that. Hopefully we’re getting more open tools like Stable Diffusion.

Innovation is really a weird thing. If we could show ChatGPT to people 10, 20 years ago I'm certain most people would be amazed by this technology. Today, lots of people heavily cr…

I agree with you. I also think it is useful to understand limits. This is not what I’m arguing against, it is affirming limits without the knowledge to do so. Until we don’t really…

Sorry but your argument doesn’t make sense. Engineering/building is different than understanding how things works. Surely is related: if you build something you usually can learn h…

I find it amusing that so many people is skeptic about general AI, trying to come up with arguments that it will never happen, while at the same time we do not understand how our o…

> I do think high frequency rate monitors are a gimmick Do you mean refresh rate? If yes, I used to think that but couldn’t be more wrong. Nowadays I have a 144hz monitor and I’m c…

I agree with you. I don’t understand why some people get annoyed about this. Any desired life change starts with goal setting. Easy to say “just do what you’re supposed to do” as i…

Interesting, we used Taiga long time ago (5 years?) and honestly it was too simple to what we needed. The UI was poor and the whole application was slow in general. Glad to see the…

Lately I arrived to the hypothesis that our minds are nothing else than an illusion. Of course, a very useful one. Why? Because I can draw an analogy to a video game character with…

I am sorry to hear that. You might find very useful this EP about meditation from Andrew Huberman: https://youtu.be/wTBSGgbIvsY It’s the first time I saw someone differentiating di…

If you have a couple years worth of your monthly expenses in your savings then I wouldn’t be so worried about it. What you have done with that is to buy you time while you figure o…

Perhaps you’re just generalizing your social bubble? I use Copilot and I find it’s pretty useful. I don’t use it to write whole functions though, but the autocomplete gets it right…

I recalled immediately about the quantum vibrations hypothesis which Penrose helped create: https://youtu.be/VG8_hlnFdWM Although it sounds weird the reasoning and explanation on m…

Not a technical trick but this helps immensely when designing an application: always start with good problem decomposition and draft the technical components and their interfaces d…

Sure, because having a synthetic intelligence that seems to understand complex concepts to create coherent visual art is something humans are used to.

Thanks for the time you dedicated to check it out and reply to me here, it really makes me happy. The responsive version is buggy indeed, sorry for that. This will be my focus on t…

Hi HN! I'm a developer who noticed that I haven't done much experimentation lately. I decided I wanted to change that this year. This month I built a simple resume builder with the…
