gfrecvh··on Engineer says Claude Code has made his job "soul-sucking"
> I know a guy who works at Amazon, and the models at OpenAI and Anthropic are so good that he doesn’t even really write code in the classic sense anymore

"I know a guy", what a weird thing to say in October 2026. I don't think I know anyone who still writes code in the classic sense.

> Was the goal to misrepresent the student population?

The goal was money. In our society we have made mainstream the idea that a certain mixture of people is better than others, so naturally some institutions try to appear that they have the right mixture to attract more clients err students.

gfrecvh··on There's a high chance of devices being sold with GrapheneOS preinstalled in 2027
Sounds like something you should be complaining to your bank about, not grapheneos.
gfrecvh··on Mistakes, mistrust and misdirection: 25 years after 9/11, its legacy unfolds
I still want to hear more about Ghislaine Maxwell being invited to the "shadow 9/11 commission". What?

What I know is she's a physics crackpot. I know this because it's my field of expertise so I can judge first hand. Therefore I give her no credibility in those other areas in which I'm not an expert. I cant know if that's the case, but I could imagine the person above who wrote "thanks, skipping" to be in the same position.
gfrecvh··on Ukrainian drones strike Russian gas facility over 3k km away in Siberia
One thing I find mystifying is how good russian propaganda is. To this day there are talking heads everywhere regurgitating the talking point "no point for ukrain to fight, better just surrender now and spare lives". How does this happen, is it actually as straightforward as the fsb has a budget to pay for pundits?

Maybe we're just evolutionarily hardwired to dislike those who are different.
gfrecvh··on The Pebble Time 2 proves smartwatches got worse, not better
> I like that it does a specific amount of functionality really well, rather than over reaching and then trying too much yet delivering poorly

This is exactly how I feel about my old school Casio wristwatch. I find it mind boggling that people want to put a smartphone-type addiction machine on their wrist.

gfrecvh··on I resigned from Anthropic today
I hate to be cynical, but I guess he will soon announce his startup.
gfrecvh··on PISA 2025 Students' reading and mathematics performance declined across the OECD
I think you nailed it with "too much entertainment", it's a shame your comment comes bundled with other stuff that's getting it downvoted.
gfrecvh··on PISA 2025 Students' reading and mathematics performance declined across the OECD
I dont understand what this phrase means.

In the context of evolution, if something causes fewer copies of a gene, that's what selected against means.

Speaking of contactless payments on the phone, can someone explain to me why people use this? Literally, why do you need it? Is it because you have accounts for which you don't have a card? If an account has a card, a card is a superior technology to make payments - doesn't run out of battery, the phone does. Or is it because you think that carrying a card with you is a logistical challenge? Or something else?

gfrecvh··on Ask HN: Why don't we bring back old school OkCupid?
Could it be argued that people were cynical about different things? I think a lot of culture is just people uncritically repeating ideas theyve heard.
