  1. He said the same thing four months ago: https://www.hackerneue.com/item?id=44972151
  2. What do you view as the generations between Slashdot/Digg and HN?
  3. How horridly inefficient, he should have just flipped a Boolean on each iteration.
  4. Please don’t do this. If you want to remove the function, remove it and insist on its removal when people complain. Don’t gradually break people.
  5. Title is confusing given https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bag-of-words_model

    But even more than that, today’s AI chats are far more sophisticated than probabilistically producing the next word. Mixture of experts routes to different models. Agents are able to search the web, write and execute programs, or use other tools. This means they can actively seek out additional context to produce a better answer. They also have heuristics for deciding if an answer is correct or if they should use tools to try to find a better answer.

    The article is correct that they aren’t humans and they have a lot of behaviors that are not like humans, but oversimplifying how they work is not helpful.

  6. Real developers don’t use a graphical desktop /s
  7. If you look at many of his recent blog entries, it is clear he has felt the need to quantify his impact to prove he isn’t less effective as a remote employee in Australia working for a company in the US.
  8. Definitely feels like someplace with GPUs that will let him work remotely.
  9. Beyond sharing a first name, they don’t share much in common. And Frank Lloyd Wright died about the time Frank Gehry started.
  10. > Rollouts likely take much longer

    Cloudflare’s own post says the configuration change that resulted in the outage rolled out in seconds.

  11. Cloudflare had already decided this was a rule that could be rolled out using their gradual deployment system. They did not view it as being so urgent that it required immediate global roll out.
  12. I’m sick of people saying this. The truth at every cloud provider:

    1. There were outages under the old guard.

    2. The new guard is operating systems that are larger than what the old guard operated.

  13. ?? I got very confused from the start of this article because it is clear that Kohler is one end of the communication from how the product is described and marketed. They’re just stating the data is encrypted between the device and them.
  14. What makes them think they can license Clippy out under the GPL?
  15. CO2 isn’t particulate matter. But more importantly, larger percentages of our electricity is being made without burning things.
  16. In January 2024, I saw it for free at the British Museum and all indications are it is still in the same spot free to view
  17. I don’t see any evidence the LLM picked the list of books, it instead was used to update/add descriptions of the books and series.
  18. > Obviously, a VM wouldn't be a suitable environment for FileZilla.

    Why not? VMs can be given access to the host file systems.
