    it's like asking a developer to explain something. I always get Haiku to rephrase anything human-facing.

    I'm outside the US and I regularly get directions with 15-20 min walking. You might be on to something.

    It's almost like people have different taste in food! It's also kind of a wild take "I have nearly zero experience in and I don't understand why people from that culture enjoy it" …

    In Australia you have "electorates" which are areas of roughly 100k pax. Each electorate gets one representative in parliament. Omitting some finer detail here. Then by contrast th…

    They're applying misdirection so that we use their secret-sauce agentic framework, but like a black box and without seeing any of the internal reasoning patterns, cause that would …

    Isn't that sitch just because employers get volume discounts? isn't that the most free market thing ever?

    AI mandate is one of the best things that's happened to me. It's the easiest metric to game in the world. At one point my boss asked why my AI usage was lower than other team membe…

    You can't prove your free-market theory because it's not falsifiable. This is why arguments about this go in circles. You either argue from a pure theoretic POV back and forth, or …

    publishing houses will gatekeep for well-selling fiction and non-fiction.

    Friendo, this is an anti-benchmark to figure out which AI is more likely to kill you. If you point both at some github issues you can gauge their relative ability to solve problems…

    You don't, the app runs on a user-supplied device. They should secure the part that runs on the car and consider the interface between the app and the api to be a user interface.

    I'm desperately trying to avoid nudging the AI and mopping up after it :-) Also to deal with my own weakness, executive dysfunction Creating experimental tooling. I don't think it'…

    I've read more than a handful of AI-generated articles on HN recently. The last one even had a fake author with a fake face. despite the site insisting it had human editors and rev…

    Yep it's all AI-generated. It's annoying that they have a fake human as the author but whatever, it's the interslop.

    There's this one guy doing crazy stuff with ASCII rendering, I can't remember his name/handle/project though :(

    I'd much rather spend $10 than have to sit at a prompt every day babysitting the thing, after working all day sitting at a prompt babysitting other things

    How do you keep the info the AI generates concise? I'm grappling with this at the moment, getting it to do design or reverse engineering work, during investigation it makes the wal…

    Can't help laughing at a random ad hominem against John Carmack of all people, and about his opinion on a guy who is already widely regarded as an especially talented programmer.

    That's exactly what Fable is. They use Fable to improve Fable. I reckon the successful experiments must go into the model training set with a strong RL signal, and that is why they…

    No offense but if you haven't done enough research to actually have a studied opinion, maaaaybe you should avoid posting an inane comment about it.
