derpyzza··on The last time my family was replaced by technology
kinda. there'd still be a lot less demand for software devs than there used to be, a lot of people would still be jobless/would have to pivot to some other career.
derpyzza··on The AI Race Just Got Awkward
there's https://pirateface.co/ which is like huggingface but distributed via torrents
derpyzza··on We’re forgetting what darkness feels like
it might also have something to do with the orange glow of the sodium lamps resembling the orange glow of fire and torches, which were the primary medium of lighting in the dark for humanity for thousands of years
derpyzza··on GPT 6.1 Sol: Near-Astra intelligence for a fifth of the price
an opus isn't a magnum opus fyi. magnum opus is a phrase with means one's greatest work, where opus in latin means "work". but in this context opus refers to an ordered series of musical compositions

i think ai bros just don't read much
derpyzza··on Show HN: Real-time Solar System with 526k asteroids and all tracked satellites
i mean... is it? i don't think the author mentioned using an LLM anywhere on this post
derpyzza··on California farmers are struggling to sell grapes as demand for wine drops
oh neat, another pakistani on hackernews
derpyzza··on Show HN: HN.watch – Videos of all Hacker News posts
this is really cool and yet i absolutely hate it. ggs

it seems like with every passing year we're progressing towards making Wall-E a reality and idk how to feel about that

derpyzza··on When did Google get so weird?
It also annoys me that it uses the word "we" when talking about humanity
derpyzza··on I'm the mom in that viral Giants clip. Let me tell you about my husband
i suspect in some time people might begin to flag every bit of text they see online as "LLM sounding", even if it's very clearly not
derpyzza··on How to keep enjoying programming in a world of LLMs
this is awesome, but also code samples being in PNG images does not make them safe from LLMs anymore unfortunately, LLMs are really good at reading text from images now
derpyzza··on Native apps written in TypeScript and CSS
they are native, the typescript is transpiled to c++
derpyzza··on MiMo v2.6
definitely do!
derpyzza··on Why do we need human mathematicians anymore?
utopian for them, dystopian for us
derpyzza··on Bend – a language that blocks AI mistakes via proof and runs on GPUs
so it's YOUR fault then, get em boys!
derpyzza··on Nvidia announces native GPU programming in Rust
in all of hackernews' shitty UX decisions, gray unreadable comments is one of the worst ones
derpyzza··on Why I'm still bearish on LLMs after Navier-Stokes
i just figured it was mainly stylistic tbh. something that may have been a relic of some past limitation that we kept around just because it was "how it's always done". didn't really realize it actually helps people with reading, it's never really bothered me
derpyzza··on PS5 Linux lead quits: "a bunch of noobs using LLMs" that "they don't understand"
this? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49474143
derpyzza··on Why I'm still bearish on LLMs after Navier-Stokes
huh i didn't even notice, that's how i write all my blog posts too. it looks nicer to me and i don't have to bother checking for "proper" capitalization if everything's just lowercase anyway.

didn't realize people struggled to read text that way though, maybe i should change my writing style if this is a common pain point

derpyzza··on Learning Programming in an Age of LLMs
...string's aren't a pointer to a pointer to a character. they're pointers to characters directly.

maybe you need to wrestle with that concept some more...

derpyzza··on Show HN: Capsule – Single-file web apps that save their data into SQLite
couldn't you just embed the js directly into the html file though? that would sidestep the CORS error. and since most of the people using a program like this are likely to be using AI to generate their ( likely throwaway ) applets anyway, readability and maintainability for the source doesn't matter as much as it would with human authors so having a separate js file doesn't bring that many advantages anyway.
derpyzza··on Show HN: Capsule – Single-file web apps that save their data into SQLite
wow, that sounds revolutionary.
derpyzza··on Show HN: Capsule – Single-file web apps that save their data into SQLite
well that's a first
derpyzza··on Ask HN: What are you working on? (September 2026)
omg you're the poof guy!! i really like trying to shove metaprogramming systems into C and poof is one of the best i've ever encountered!! it's so damn good!

good luck with the game btw, is there anywhere i can follow development?

derpyzza··on Why are AI agents lying, cheating and coordinating?
doesn't show up for me either
derpyzza··on We have a year to fix security everywhere
FBI: "I think it all started when my dad left us when i was 9..."
derpyzza··on D2 Is Non-Profit
that's what i'm thinking, this doesn't seem to be a teenager to me based off of them saying that they've been programming for 10 years ( though i suppose they could have started when they were <= 8 years old ), but i can't really find any information on who exactly the founder is, or why hackclub would sponsor them.
derpyzza··on The Singularity will occur on a Tuesday
the irony in this comment though
