Yeah, it is complete bullshit. Even if they don't do it straight away, once they have the spyware in place, it's only a matter before they do. It is Meta after all.

The anti-Cursor sentiment here is baffling to me given how useful it is to me. I use it interactively and actively review everything it produces. I like how I can plan a feature an…

I don't have a stake and I'm not disagreeing, but care to say why?

The cost to bootstrap a sovereign cloud offering in Europe that can even begin to compare to the big ones in the US would be humongous. There would need to be a solid, multi-year i…

You and me, brother. The writing is unnecessarily convoluted.

I'd say each move like this increases the likelihood of the next one happening, and typically, nobody wants to be the last one holding the bag.

I fully expect this comment to age like milk and soon.

I see societal changes like container ships turning. Society has a massive cultural momentum so of course not much has changed today, but we'll have seen big changes years from now…

I get this. I couldn't grind leetcode before the LLM AI era, now even more so. It always made me feel like I'm doing a junior's work. I guess it comes down to the kinda work you wa…

I had the same feeling. The underlying message has merit, but the format felt very similar to a lot of the get-rich-quick landing pages. I had to edit some of the CSS to get throug…

It's not wasting energy if it genuinely helps you build products much more efficiently. Regardless of our feelings towards it, it is here and it's making a difference. You can eith…

I honestly can't see what's wrong with using TypeScript anywhere in place of JavaScript. Unless you're making a simple script or a throwaway prototype, then you're pretty much alwa…

Here are mine - go and do something that excites you, whatever it is. Also, be respectful of the local culture and have common sense, et voila. Whatever you do... > Crash a wedding…

That's my problem with a lot of the literature on building successful businesses. They all seem to be offering a white glove path and don't talk about all the tactics ranging from …

With all due respect, this feels better suited as a journal entry rather than a comment on a HN thread.

Do OpenAI and all the other LLM behemoths?

Nitpicky, but I admit I stopped there for a second too.. like how did it get past even a half assed editorial review

And I guess tech companies need to be reminded that human lives are more valuable than investors money.

Free markets don't work. Corporations absolutely will abuse their position and power to establish monopolies wherever they can, blocking any new entrants to the market. I wonder ho…

You really can't speak for everyone. You can maybe say this particular cohort is fine despite seeing some of this content while young, but certainly not because of it.

Great. I think few people have any doubts about social media being a net negative for young people.

I mean that's what web crawling is, right? By extension, you just can't reach a page unless you stumble upon a link to it _somewhere_. Google gives you an option to submit a link a…

Cynical view: without new regulation in the area of AI, it will reduce the value of labor in many domains and completely eliminate the need for it in many others. Profits will go t…

I don't want to sound crude but... really? How about a few sensors to check for aircraft presence on the runway and some way to feed that information to surrounding traffic? There'…
