Wait, so did this already happen and it just didn’t get attention?

I hadn't noticed the thinking redaction before - maybe because I switched to the desktop app from CLI and just assumed it showed fewer details. This is the most concerning part. I'…

It’s become a core expectation at work now (Meta). If I’m not actively using it, then I’ll be significantly dinged in performance reviews. Honestly, it’s forced me to consider goin…

> But it feels like we all need to try and use it anyway just in case we're going to be obsolete without it somehow. I feel this exactly. I’ve been one of the biggest champions of …

~20 years working in tech for me, mostly big companies, and I’ve never been more miserable. I also can’t stop myself from using Claude Code and the like. I think it’s a bit like a …

I see not being able to install invasive kernel level anti-cheat as a positive. I uninstalled all Riot games before they rolled it out. I would’ve been pretty miffed if I had accid…

Deep Think is TBD. Maybe. So far I like it better than GPT 5.1 Pro, but that came after the initial purchase. I likely won’t renew at this tier.

There are some clear objective signals that aren’t just user preference. I shelled out the $250 for Gemini’s top tier and am profoundly disappointed. I had forgotten that loops wer…

That’s a pretty uncharitable take. Given the scale of their recent launches and amount of compute to make them work, it seems incredibly smooth. Edge cases always arise, and all th…

AT&T is pretty bad in its own way. They snoop DNS and to sell your info (including physical address) to advertisers - even if you switch your DNS providers. They used to had a paid…

This reply seems to miss the question, or at least doesn’t answer it clearly. Is this service overly tolerant of mispronunciations? Foundational models are becoming more tolerant, …

I’ve found such changes can actually be a draw at first. “Hey look, progress and activity!”. Doubly so as a primarily C++ dev frustrated with legacy choices in stl. But as you and …

It’s definitely not a transaction. Every time I’ve seen push come to shove, companies prioritize the folks they see as critical to their company’s success with loyalty not even bei…

That could explain compute efficiency, but has nothing to do with the parameter efficiency pointed at in the paper.

I love that “in mice” is in the title (both on HN and in the original article). It seems like a promising result and I really appreciate them not over hyping it.

I’m surprised as well. I start my day off with a half hour of video game news everyday (Spawn Wave + other sources) and hadn’t heard a peep about this.

An indie studio building not only its own engine but its own language to make its own engine seems like a huge mistake.

Except it was the government agency that violated their agreements by providing this data. At least Facebook, based on their response, specifically put in the agreement that this s…

GPL is tricky at the best of times to enforce. Onyx, makers of Boox, was called out on this years ago (sorry I couldn’t find a single concise source to link to) and hasn’t faced an…

I’m highly skeptical of the conclusions here. Many corporations already record periodic screenshots of employee devices. There’s also a bunch of hand waving of “security incident h…
