What does self referential have to do with anything? These LLMs have proven they can "talk about themselves". > an individual act or product of thinking Emphasis on "product of thi…

Self driving cars aren't fully autonomous yet. They occasionally require human intervention to make decisions, which I would guess makes it difficult to steal these cars without be…

Way to cherry pick the one definition that fits your argument and ignore all the other definitions which kinda fit for what this model is doing.

Fascinating stuff! It reminds me a little of chaos theory. The average person probably wouldn't expect to find structure in chaos, but that's exactly what we have. https://en.m.wik…

It's literally the first game mentioned in the article...

It's called terminology. Every field has words that mean very different things from the layman's definition. It's nothing to get upset about.

The second video is the one I recall, though it seems I'm the one misremembering details. As for that first video, honestly it feels phony/staged, like all that fake miraculous cra…

I know the experiment you're referring to. It's been a long time since I've seen it, no idea how to find it now, but you're definitely misremembering some details. Dogs do have a s…

I guess one good thing about this patent is it may prevent other automakers from implementing such systems.

Many of us, not all of us. More so than the average population.

Acquisitions/mergers are one of the great evils of capitalism which only serve to consolidate power into mega corporations. Governments are far too permissive of them. The vast maj…

The sad truth is, most people simply don't care about anything that doesn't affect them. Yes, there are people who do care, like many of us here on Hacker News, but we are very muc…

Why does the title mention specifically duckdb and postgres? It sounds like it supports multiple embedded and remote databases, and I don't see anything special in the README speci…

Grep is nice, but I would much prefer better tools for searching through code. Something that knows how to parse multiple languages and can infer the types of things. Not to mentio…

I've noticed Windows is buggier when I disable certain features or tweak certain configurations. I'm not suggesting it's deliberate, but maybe just not well tested by Microsoft. Fo…

> Apple has stated that Bing does not match Google’s search result quality, and they are unwilling to compromise on user experience by offering subpar results. I wouldn't take this…

Only if you use the decompiled code. But if one team uses decompiled code to write up a spec, then another team writes an implementation based on that spec, then that could be cons…

I think there's actually some potential here, considering LLMs are already very good at translating text between human languages. I don't think LLMs on their own would be very good…

I had no idea Kotlin could do this. I never thought to check. I guess with Kotlin being a JVM language, I simply assumed it wasn't possible. Thank you for providing an example beca…

A bit of a contrived example, but something like this (two for statements): [x*y for x in range (10) for y in range(10)] It's not often, but occasionally there are moments where I'…

I think both languages have their strengths. I love Kotlin for its functional programming (map, filter, etc) and strong static typing. But Python has some nice features as well, su…

I tried it out about a week ago in a VM. I like what I'm seeing so far but the alpha state is very apparent. Simply trying to configure things is still quite buggy. Then, within 5 …

You beat me to it :(
