Having a website that’s legible with DarkReader is a virtue this article sadly does not espouse.

That slog led to some of the most satisfying feelings of accomplishment for me. I love the lack of instruction in that game.

Weird that the post above this one in the front page has “Braid” in its title and it’s not about Blow’s famous game.

I tried this on an open source audio streaming website I maintain and the personalized content was completely nonsensical.

Your colleagues using the tech will be far ahead of you soon, if they aren’t already.

Why the short paragraphs?

They are hard to read.

See: this post.

I think ads were actually inevitable. Economies function on product/service awareness.

The article reminds me of the similarly ridiculous take in Effortless Mastery. These authors are selling your own hopium to you. The appropriate amount of effort is as much as possible - just don’t do it in such a dumb awkward way.

Picked up an Umbrel server to run Bitcoin Knots node last month. Works extremely well, I highly recommend it for similar applications. Nice web based UI.

Replace "on HN" with "in the course of human events" and we may have a generally true statement ;)

Stats/figures to backup the low quality claim?

I'm on a team like this currently. It's great when everyone knows how to use the tools and spot/kill slop and bad context. Generally speaking, good code gets merged and MUCH more quickly than in the past.

This common response is pretty uninteresting and misleading. They simply predict tokens? Oh. What does the brain do, exactly?

Statements about "I wasted years doing X" are almost always overblown. The more realistic take is "I didn't get the ROI I wanted in specific area X."

The max supply is what makes it "hard money." Splitting it into smaller pieces is a separate concept and does not devalue it.

With a soft fork it could easily.

Embedding the API key (secret) in the URL complicates secret management. Please move that to a header and allow setting via env var.

This comment makes sweeping generalizations.

Grateful for the intellectual curiosity and respectful debate on this board. Has kept me coming back nearly every day for over a decade.

I initially read the title as "Cloudflare outrage.." and I was thinking how nice someone is thinking of the poor engineers who crashed the Internet.

> To think that with enough compute we can code consciousness is like thinking that with enough rainbows one of them will have a pot of gold at its end.

What does consciousness have to do with AGI or the point(s) the article is trying to make? This is a distraction imo.

Neat, let me just find those old DOS U7 files…

Perhaps you haven't used many MCP server, but those that I have used (GitHub, Atlassian, Glean, BuildKite, Figma, Google Workspace, etc) work very well. They teach an LLM how to do exactly what you're saying - "use the API standards...your models/agents directly interact with those API endpoints." Most MCP severs don't sit in between the LLM and the API endpoints, they just teach them how to use the tools and then the LLM calls the APIs directly as any HTTP client would. I find it works quite well and seems far better than manually maintaining rules or pointing at docs and installing CLI tools (like "gh" for GitHub) or using curl to interact with APIs from a terminal within a chat session.

This already happened to me because of mouse usage. I’ve longed for a keyboard like this so I cam rest my right arm/hand which has significant damage and pain.

Concerning cats, I'm specifically talking about imprisonment and mutilation. Cats are social roaming animals and many are kept staring out windows of small apartments and run for the door every time it's opened hoping for escape. Mutilation occurs regularly to keep them from procreating. All of this is socially accepted by humans. If a cat is running around free and being fed and sheltered by humans, no problem, but obviously this can lead to issues with feral populations that don't mix well with civic engineered spaces.

> Their natural social life is being with humans.

If this were true (which it is not), it would be because we have made it so through generations of forced eugenics and domination.

The eugenics involved in the breeding of modern dogs is an even larger moral issue than dominating individuals of the species.

Alternative viewpoint: separating a dog from its natural social life and forcing its integration into a human world, even if done out of a concept of affection, is morally wrong. I suspect future generations will liken the domination of many species, such as dogs and cats, to slavery.

AI can replace them too. The Server Farmers’ Almanac will be in high demand.

Same as if GitHub were down over the last decade.
