Interesting this keeps moving up the front page when the site is inaccessible because it's hosted on a baked potato.

73% of users vote prior to reading TFA, according to this research. (I am sometimes guilty of this myself) We live in a world being dimished by confirmation bias, but this isn't a new thing. Those who wrote/approved the headlines always had more power than those who wrote the articles. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/315096490_Consumers... edit: disclaimer, no hate on TFA. Just responding to the comment.

Huh, I didn't even remember to vote for posts, i just scroll down to read (and vote sometimes on comments)

Earlier quoted context omitted.

It's not an LLM. Why use big program when regex do trick?

You can get the best of both worlds with a small embedding model

Show me an embedding model that runs as fast as an optimized regex engine and I'll buy you a beer.

I can deal with a launch problem. I am looking forward to being able to check it out. I stopped coming to HN as often as I used to because there has been too much AI talk. It's like a dang AI subreddit. I don't want anything to do with AI. I have lost 2 jobs to AI budgets and stupid executive decisions. It's no longer part of my personal and professional life. I hope it works out.

I agree with you, but haven't really left yet since there's still a good amount of discourse outside AI related topics. Seems a significant amount of contributors here are all to eager to fall over themselves putting themselves, their juniors, children, and colleagues out of work, long term.

I've been training to naturally ignore AI mentions that I thought this entry was about some HN ui font change (Sans).

The style is a bit off for the usual HN fare: 'sans' should be lowercase here, or otherwise it's easy to confuse for a font. It's still pretty swell :)
