Yeah I'm growing increasingly tired of those stupid metaphors about AI. LLMs are not like screwdrivers, IDEs, or any other tool. They're indeterministic. I keep seeing everyone mak…

I built my "NAS", which is just a normal computer with no GPU but 3 hard-drives in RAID 5, for $400 + storage cost. It is much more powerful that any NAS, even thousands of dollars…

That's fine, lies are more harmful than anecdotes are beneficial. There's no forum to discuss the best IDE and people still manage, in reality there's no need for a forum around AI…

> The post has counts for everything that went right and nothing for what could go wrong. That's AI for you. At Amazon we have many forums to share our AI wins, but none to share A…

I know, and I'm saying that 2x claims should be interpreted as an actual 20% increase, and 10x claims as an actual 100% increase. People are just bad at estimating their own produc…

Even this is overstating it IMO. I already convert from multipliers to percentage of increase, so when someone claims 10x they very likely mean +100% productivity, and here 2x mean…

Not as much as LLMs are poisonous to the scientific literature (or, really, any literature).

The thing is that maybe your comment is sarcasm, but half of HN commenters would make the same comment 100% seriously.

I'll be more blunt than other commenters: this is useless. Obsidian and plenty of other note taking apps already do the same and more. Add to that the fact that it's likely entirel…

What you're looking for is not something to help your with your goals, it's something that sells you the idea that you can achieve your goals while seemingly be unwilling to put th…

They absolutely don't. They ask for your date of birth to fill it on their app and that's it.

I think it's a missed opportunity to not have called it "Stop spying on every EU citizen online". It would make for great headlines and might finally wake people up when they see t…

Okay so you have no names of experienced developers saying that coding agents are now useful when they weren't before. The only two you have actually saying that are... not working…
