    I moved away from mac because of the OS and couldn't be happier. The hardware may be great but non-Apple hardware is fine too, and Linux is significantly better experience than Mac…

    No idea, and I don't think anyone does, hence the prediction that it won't happen anytime soon. Either we need perfect simulations (seems almost impossible) for training at scale o…

    I fail to understand why 888 KiB matters if it's just a wrapper around a cloud api.

    I'd love to see what is being achieved by these massive parallel agent approaches. If it's so much more productive, where is all the great software that's being built with it? What…

    It's the same as it has always been, the only difference is that you are being bombarded with these issues because you are terminally online and use social media while previously y…

    Not anytime soon. The big leaps in LLMs don't really carry over to robotics much, aside from some computer vision stuff. I'd say we're still 10+ years out from robots cooking for y…

    "Humans are now writing code in strict specification language so that AI agents have completely context and don't mistakes. This specification language is called C' and has led to …

    Does that mean more issues will show up soon?

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Signs_of_AI_writing is a good starting point. You start seeing patterns at some point. But more important than the writing style, there is n…

    I don't know either what the solution is other than human verification, but nobody wants that. Perhaps the times of semi-anonymous online communities are over and the best you can …

    How is this highly upvoted and on the front page? It's so clearly at least 50% AI written slop, probably closer to 95%. Wow HN these days... this site is dying, completely overrun …

    It can schedule stuff and run in a loop, so it's like claude combined with cron. Truly amazing technology.

    Where is the detail? Examples? Something concrete? I don't think it is, but it does read like LLM generated content marketing. Lots of generic statements everyone knows. Yes, dev e…

    It depends. If you have an LLM that uses reasoning the explanation for why decisions are made can often be found in the reasoning token output. So if the agent later has access to …

    If you search you can easily find sites to buy aged HN accounts, lots of them. Just like reddit accounts.

    Can someone explain to me what AGI means? What is the concrete technical definition? How do we know it is achieved?

    You're not the only one. I've worked quite a bit with Minio, Arrow, and Spark, and I don't really understand the point the article is trying to make or how it's related to Minio. I…

    I typically only look for upvoted content. Prefix your searches with "site:reddit.com", "site:news.ycombinator.com" or "site:stackoverflow.com" - The social/human filter is quite a…

    I had the opposite experience. The early TF versions were difficult to use in that they required a lot of boilerplate code to do simple things, but at least there was no hidden com…

    I'm skeptical of JAX. It feels good right now, but when the first TF beta version came out it was very much like that too - clean, simple, minimal, and just a better version of The…

    Another illusion is that these are absolute numbers. They're relative. When you're young, $100k is a lot of money. Enough to be happy and worry-free. Once you have that, you need $…

    Not everyone is optimizing for making money. I left a Silicon Valley FAANG for another country more than five years ago, even though I was making ~3x there compared to what I made …
