bundie··on Tell HN: Twitter is now rate limiting accounts
Oh thank Goodness, I thought I was suspended.
bundie··on Why Did the Twitter Migration to Mastodon Fail?
One reason it failed was because it looked like you needed a freaking PhD to understand the account setup process. It's difficult to convince people that your party's great if you make them solve a math problem correctly before you let them in.

Hacker news edited the title.
bundie··on Gradients are not all you need
I think this trend is happening because of the entire buzz around OPENAI LLMs and that 2017 Google Research Paper
bundie··on Twitter's Hateful Bots: Search Results for “As an AI Language Model”
My point is this: Your claim that no one get's hurts by insults/speech that aren't believable is false. For example, People make absurd claims about vaccines that "aren't believable", leading to people dying over 'unbelievable claims'.

> your views are completely artificial and detached. Polio in Nigeria: 'I opposed vaccinations until my son caught polio' https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-50266547

What alternatives to React do you suggest.?
bundie··on React.gg – An interactive way to master modern React
I completely agree that simplicity and maintainability should be at the forefront of our minds as we develop software. The more complex our codebases become, the more difficult it can be to make changes, fix bugs, and add new features. It's important to strike a balance between functionality and simplicity, and to avoid getting bogged down by overly complex code.

wut?
bundie··on Epic’s new motion-capture animation tech
Although this is very impressive, don't get me wrong. I still cannot shake off that video-gamey feel the entire thing has. I watched the demo on YouTube and it looks great and all, but the moment the character began to speak, something about the way her mouth moves felt off. Am I the only one or am I just crazy?

bundie··on Microsoft lays off one of its responsible AI teams
So....are you saying that ethical AI teams are not needed?

> Too bad Microsoft did not have an "Ethical Office Team" back when Microsoft Office was first released.

What does this even mean? And how does this relate to ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE? The content was HUMAN-generated, so if you used MS Word to write something messed up, that's on you. Now, if a Microsoft bot generates something messed up, that is different.

bundie··on How many layers of UI inconsistencies are in Windows 11?
oh I get it now
bundie··on How many layers of UI inconsistencies are in Windows 11?
> The one improvement modern Windows has over Windows from the 90s is the lack of those godawful cascading menus that would disappear off the screen the second you even slightly missed a hover target.

I don't understand

bundie··on Should we care about people who need never exist?
Do you think there are intelligent lifeforms out there in the universe?
