It seems naive to suppose you might get an LLM to admit it is one just in a HN comment exchange.

The purpose of prediction markets is to communicate insider knowledge.

Is CEO likeability a reliable predictor?

I'll give that and agree the underlying is a quibble.

Pretty sure Ramp uses Elixir.

No one is forcing you to give birth in a hospital. Rational people do it at home all the time to this day.

Figma is also one dude.

I'm sure if the original developer bothered to show up again he could fix it in a weekend.

HN users want to know if you're allowed to host the whole Internet on it.

My favorite part about Ocaml is the type checker fwiw. Pretty much as soon as I appease it I'm guaranteed a 'working' program that usually does what I intended.

Wait until you hear about how much wealth Salomon Bros extracted from the market.

I suspect the root argument is really against the efficacy of markets and capitalism as a useful system for humanity, in which case I say that is a fair debate. The benefits are ha…

Lol same. Wasn't there something like it in System 7 that also got deprecated. I think back then it was called "Launcher" ... https://apple.fandom.com/wiki/Launcher Launching seems…

I've found NestJs to be a very thoughtful application framework. I'd argue it demonstrates pro-level typescript coding. https://github.com/nestjs/nest

> My concern is how much funding FTX and SBF in particular were giving to EA/AGI Safety research labs and charities. Did a malicious AI orchestrate this downfall?

Rich people got them in the 1890s. $10 a "roll" back then; ~$300 today. You had to mail the camera back to Kodak to get the film developed. https://web.archive.org/web/200903062214…

Try checking out the options: refetchInterval: false, refetchOnMount: false, refetchOnWindowFocus: false, refetchOnReconnect: false, staleTime: Infinity, I was similarly surprised …

This is a strawman and no one would actually design a messaging app using a NoSQL db like that. Typically one would employ a strategy to fan-out data such that the message document…

I generally prefer keeping all the configuration in as few languages as possible and preferably in a single language. Adding filesystem-based config where a config option object in…
