citizenkeen··on Astra for Law
Former attorney here. A good paralegal is worth 3-4 junior attorneys. A good paralegal with AI should probably still have a senior attorney oversee them but this will absolutely hollow out firms.
citizenkeen··on Being ambitious and being a dad
I noticed housework wasn’t mentioned in this idealized schedule.
citizenkeen··on Yadda 3.0.0: BDD in the Age of AI Agents
I’ll take that bet, since we ask about it in our interview questions.
citizenkeen··on Jack Dorsey launches Buzz to combine team chat, AI agents and Git hosting
It’s way older than Reddit, it’s older than the Office. I remember Denzel Washington saying it in some movie when I was a kid, and I doubt it originated there. Doesn’t Einstein have a quotation about it, too?
citizenkeen··on Night Witches – all-female Soviet aviator regiment WW2
Beaten to the punch. It’s quite good.

citizenkeen··on Cheese Paper: a text editor specifically designed for writing
Is this Scrivener but with markdown?
citizenkeen··on The Lottery – Shirley Jackson (1948)
Because I’m surprised to see Shirley Jackson on the front page, and maybe someone else will get a smile:

Why one small American town won’t stop stoning its residents to death -https://archiveofourown.org/works/73396436?view_adult=true

I don’t share your optimism that these positions will be replaced. I don’t know why you think they would be.
citizenkeen··on Microsoft to force updates to Windows 11 25H2 for PCs with older OS versions
Is there a billion dollar company that does?
citizenkeen··on Ask HN: How is AI-assisted coding going for you professionally?
We all use Claude at my work and I have a very strict rule for my boss and my team: we don’t say “I asked Claude”. We use it a lot, but I expect my team to own it.
citizenkeen··on Challenging the Single-Responsibility Principle
Much like Unbreakable, I felt like this ended just as it was starting to get good.
citizenkeen··on Google closes deal to acquire Wiz
Israeli isn’t an ethnicity, it’s a nationality. Conflating the two doesn’t do anybody any favors.
citizenkeen··on The changing goalposts of AGI and timelines
Why was the submission headline changed?
citizenkeen··on AI Made Writing Code Easier. It Made Being an Engineer Harder
For me, it allows me to ship more projects in parallel, but not any given project faster, which is how I take your parent’s comment.
citizenkeen··on OpenAI – How to delete your account
The parents of the girls in the children’s school we just bombed could probably be convinced.
citizenkeen··on Minions: Stripe’s one-shot, end-to-end coding agents
You don’t have to agree that it’s off-putting, but if you’re “struggling to understand why” that demonstrates a serious lack of empathy and awareness of social dynamics.
citizenkeen··on Amazon cuts 16k jobs
Yes, that’s the point.
citizenkeen··on “Food JPEGs” in Super Smash Bros. and Kirby Air Riders
A few screen shots of the sprites in the game would be helpful. Did I miss any links in OP?
citizenkeen··on Stranger Things creator says turn off “garbage” settings
I would use this for most reality TV shows.
citizenkeen··on Clair Obscur having its Indie Game Game Of The Year award stripped due to AI use
That’s not how awards work. Awards trade on prestige. In order for an award to matter, the people you’re giving it to have to care.

I think you’ll find most of the small teams making popular indie video games aren’t going to be interested in winning a pro-AI award.

Is this not libel?
citizenkeen··on A brief history of Times New Roman
Helvetica is not usually in the running for use by lawyers.
citizenkeen··on Secret Documents Show Pepsi and Walmart Colluded to Raise Food Prices
But isn’t that true of the ACLU as well?
citizenkeen··on Secret Documents Show Pepsi and Walmart Colluded to Raise Food Prices
Weird stance to take since PepsiCo owns a number of food subsidiaries like QuakerOats.

Pretty sure oatmeal is a nutritional foodstuff.

citizenkeen··on Accenture dubs 800k staff 'reinventors' amid shift to AI
I can always trust a large consultancy to reinvent the wheel.
citizenkeen··on Disney Lost Roger Rabbit
That’s not the right comparison. Is a 35 year lease that much cheaper than a 70 year lease? Copyright isn’t forever.
citizenkeen··on I Am Mark Zuckerberg
The Warhol Corollary: In the future, everybody will be famous to fifteen people.
citizenkeen··on I Am Mark Zuckerberg
Your use case is why I bought my own domain name. My wife and I create shared aliases we can both send from. It’s made spousal ensuing with schools so much easier, etc.
citizenkeen··on The Mack Super Pumper was a locomotive engined fire fighter (2018)
Something the article doesn’t mention is why this was phased out. Was it replaced with something similar?
