BoneShard··on There's yet another study about how bad AI is for our brains
and the last piece of the remaining work moves to a place with less strict mandates.
BoneShard··on Sal Khan's AI revolution hasn't happened yet
I wonder what is the current state of coursera? Do people still study there or is it dying like stackoverflow.
BoneShard··on The dangers of California's legislation to censor 3D printing
well, it's not because they shopped around and were like - yeah, we don't like these AK-74s and ar15s, let's just use FGC-9 instead.
BoneShard··on The dangers of California's legislation to censor 3D printing
I think they don't give a shit about 3D printing, especially in CA. It's not like you're competing with a glock19 type hand gun and cornering this market.
BoneShard··on The disturbing white paper Red Hat is trying to erase from the internet
haha, larping, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wars_involving_the_Uni...
BoneShard··on Women are getting most of the new jobs. What's going on with men?
Teachers paid well in some places, I checked it recently and in our school district(Seattle area) on average elementary school teacher makes 120-140k.
BoneShard··on Claude mixes up who said what
this is probably the shortest way to AGI.
BoneShard··on AI may be making us think and write more alike
I'm sorry it feels like an AI wrote it, at least partially.
BoneShard··on AI may be making us think and write more alike
Youtube comments is a separate genre itself. Due to youtube moderation policy - music video comments are all the same, same tired jokes, patterns. Not an AI slop per se, but feels the same.
BoneShard··on German men 18-45 need military permit for extended stays abroad
I can drive to Canada with my driver license.
BoneShard··on Claude loses its >99% uptime in Q1 2026
It's possible though - it was a bug, a model pool instance wasn't updated properly and served a very old model for several months; whoever hit this instance would received a response from a prev version of a model.
BoneShard··on So where are all the AI apps?
I posted it recently, but now this works differently https://xkcd.com/1205/

You can get a throw away app in 5 mins, before I wouldn't even bother.

BoneShard··on Study: 'Security Fatigue' May Weaken Digital Defenses
Amateurs. Where is a JIT portal - to raise a ticket in order to access prod VMs?
BoneShard··on Western carmakers' retreat from electric risks dooming them to irrelevance
We can despise Musk as much as we want, but I leased a Tesla Model 3 for three years and it was the best car I've ever owned. I had zero issues, it was always charged, zero maintenance(other than topping off washer fluid), and for long trips, I usually rent a car anyway. I seriously considered buying a Model S once my lease ended, but thanks to Musk’s shenanigans, I’m waiting for a Rivian R2 or R3 instead.

And yes Teslas aren't for passengers but for drivers.

BoneShard··on A rogue AI led to a serious security incident at Meta
Yeah, a nothingburger for clicks.
BoneShard··on Rob Pike’s Rules of Programming (1989)
He doesn't know, but that quote makes for a cool talking point. Software is slow or bloated because of budget, deadlines, and skill levels - not because of a quote.
BoneShard··on Kagi Translate now supports LinkedIn Speak as an output language
Waiting for when llm bots start shaming more obvious llm bots.
BoneShard··on AirPods Max 2
ah, indeed, thank you.
BoneShard··on Ask HN: What is it like being in a CS major program these days?
How will the grads pass an lc interview if they don't do classical programming (or do I misunderstand what it means)? But it also raises another questions - what is the future for leetcoding?
BoneShard··on Ask HN: What is it like being in a CS major program these days?
I had something similar (a lot of math and theoretical classes for the first two or three years), and I remember I was pissed off - I only wanted to write C programs! :D But 20 years later, I really appreciate my CS education. It has all paid off: calculus, statistics, probability theory, theory of computation, discrete math, data structures and algorithms, foundations of NNs, etc. Then later, foundational classes for compilers, OSes, multiprocessor programming, networking, distributed systems, and database theory - I've used it all during different stages of my career.
BoneShard··on AirPods Max 2
They're one year old at this point, why is this news?
BoneShard··on Ask HN: How is AI-assisted coding going for you professionally?
The code is fine, strong reviews help and since we're slower due to all slop communication also helps.
BoneShard··on Ask HN: How is AI-assisted coding going for you professionally?
I noticied what previously would take 30 mins, now takes a week. For example we had a performance issue with a DB, previously I'd just create a GSI (global secondary index), now there is a 37 page document with explanation, mitigation, planning, steps, reviews, risks, deployment plan, obstacles and a bunch of comments, but sure it looks cool and very professional.
BoneShard··on The 49MB web page
it's still engineering, just for different constraints - cost & speed.

BoneShard··on Anthropic, please make a new Slack
So basically spend 500K-1M per year for a worse slack?
BoneShard··on My spicy take on vibe coding for PMs
Don't do that if you're in the US. I was laid off and finally got two offers, both places ran a background check and had all the information - my previous title, precise start - end time, etc. I've talked to one hiring manager and he told me that they had a lot of offers revoked due to failing these background checks recently.
BoneShard··on Iran War Cost Tracker
it's probably one shot claude creation, all my claude side projects look about the same (so basically ai slop).
BoneShard··on I'm reluctant to verify my identity or age for any online services
I sort of like these restrictions. You're making hard for me to access your site - I close it. You block it behind a paywall - I close it. You block it because of ublock - fine again, I close your site. I have only so much time and you're helping me.
BoneShard··on MacBook Air with M5
Same here, had to stop using the trackpoint (after maybe 10-15 years of heavy usage). And macbook trackpads are awesome.
