Vaslo··on Statement from Dario Amodei on our discussions with the Department of War
This is silly. No one at anthropic is going to prison for this. It only hurts their ability to do business with US government customers which is a net negative for all. Anthropic will come around.
Vaslo··on Statement from Dario Amodei on our discussions with the Department of War
Huh? Why would they be in prison??
Vaslo··on Amazon accused of widespread scheme to inflate prices across the economy
I worked for a large CPG company and what you are describing happens everywhere all the time and there is zero illegal about it. It’s called a most favored nation clause and if you do decide to sell lower elsewhere and don’t reduce your price to match (and beat) their competitor, then your MFN customer delists you or stops buying from you.

This is happening constantly with the private label brands you see in major stores. There is no CFPB needed here, Amazon has no obligation to carry your product and can dump you anytime. Why would CFPB get involved?

Some of you are just ridiculous with “get gubbermint involved” on everything. If you want to combat this then don’t buy from Amazon, we don’t need CFPB.

If so many comments are going to be flagged, why even bother having a comment section?
Vaslo··on Why is Claude an Electron app?
Because it’s an Electron app, I use on Omarchy Linux with no problem
Vaslo··on Excessive token usage in Claude Code
A lot of comments and evidence - where there’s smoke…
Vaslo··on YouTube Is Down
I’m able to reach videos via my history but not getting anything on the front page.
Vaslo··on How long do job postings stay open?
Interesting to hear this data point because everyone would just claim it was a sham job that some companies post to get a feel of the market.
Vaslo··on The Feynman Lectures on Physics (1961-1964)
yt is YouTube?
Vaslo··on Show HN: I created a Mars colony RPG based on Kim Stanley Robinson’s Mars books
Made me think of this gem:

Vaslo··on Data centers in space makes no sense
Sounds like Elon hurt someone’s feelings
Vaslo··on Best Gas Masks
Isn’t this the reporter who made the racist tweets?
Vaslo··on Claude Code is suddenly everywhere inside Microsoft
I bet it goes the way of Edge, where they just tap out and “fork” Claude.
Vaslo··on Data Processing Benchmark Featuring Rust, Go, Swift, Zig, Julia etc.
So in the D vs Zig vs Rust vs C fight - learn d if speed is your thing?
Vaslo··on A list of fun destinations for telnet
Can’t tell if this is a sexual comment or a comment on people tattling on each other but thought provoking either way
Vaslo··on The Rebirth of Pennsylvania's Infamous Burning Town
Also a comparison to Chernobyl (which no one would ever think they were anywhere near related.). Clearly the author wanted to communicate “something” more than the interesting takeover by nature.
Vaslo··on The Rebirth of Pennsylvania's Infamous Burning Town
The author keeps taking jabs at “capitalism” - but let’s be honest that this could happen in any political/economic system. This cheapens the article.
Vaslo··on I added a Bluesky comment section to my blog
Blue sky isn’t even close to X
Vaslo··on After two years of vibecoding, I'm back to writing by hand [video]
1) Testing for myself 2) Vibe code testing 3) Team members do work from scratch and try to break 4) can read and reason it out even if I come out with it myself.
Vaslo··on After two years of vibecoding, I'm back to writing by hand [video]
All of these “go back to handcoding” posts seem to be done by very experienced coders. The fact that a less than mediocre coder like me can have sql statements or Python ETL written and tested for me in seconds rather than hours is all I need to see.
Vaslo··on Microsoft will give the FBI a Windows PC data encryption key if ordered
To people on HN considering the switch, maybe. My family has zero interest or intention of trying any of these. It stops with me.
Vaslo··on Proton spam and the AI consent problem
Exactly the kind of whiny blogger I don’t want using Proton products with his squeaky wheel nonsense. Move over to Tutanova or go back to Gmail. What a trivial thing to whine about.
Vaslo··on Verizon outages reported across U.S.
I have two Verizon phones on very different networks and both have not been working well since Tuesday - anyone also having this? I kept restarting my phones, airplane mode on/off etc
Vaslo··on Why we don’t use AI
This article is silly. Your employees are using AI to get shit done whether you like it or not. They are just being sneaky about it.
Vaslo··on Ask HN: ADHD – How do you manage the constant stream of thoughts and ideas?
Music is big for me - there are some good lists on YouTube.

Taking a few steps forward on something help me get over the initial paralysis. Get people to help you need priorities. I constantly check in with bosses to ensure I’m doing the most important thing.

Interesting about sleep, I definitely feel most productive in the morning after a solid night of sleep.

It has its downsides but a constant comment/compliment I get from friends how much I get done with my limited time. I have to always be doing something that consumes my attention or I’ll go nuts. I can’t watch sports for example because all the constant stops and starts make me lose my attention and go somewhere else.

Vaslo··on Scott Adams has died
Mods - see above - here’s a really low hanging fruit for bannable accounts

I’d call Israel our ally but you do you
Vaslo··on Shipmap.org
I think the comment you are responding to is a troll.

Thank you for your zero value Reddit comment
Vaslo··on Total monthly number of StackOverflow questions over time
They would just use documentation. I know there is some synthesis they would lose in the training process but I’m often sending Claude through the context7 MCP to learn documentation for packages that didn’t exist, and it nearly always solves the problem for me.
