Funny, yesterday git operations had an unreported outage too. I couldn't pull changes for ~10 minutes.

> Who says people must enjoy coding?

Nobody. But everyone is saying that I must stop coding by hand or get left behind. I really like understanding what I'm building and creating works of art in code. The sense of accomplishment is gone.

It sounds like you never enjoyed coding.

If the discussion was "Sitting in a submarine is not as fun as scuba-diving", I would recognize the conversation is not about me, and not jump in and tell all of the recreational scuba-divers they're wrong.

I'm annoyed that the meaning of the word "Agent" has been obliterated.

Like, why couldn't they invent a new word and not hijack an existing word?

> All models are pretty good now at generating these images.

That's pretty generous.

Thank you.

More money than the GDP 90% of the sovereign countries around the world is hanging in the balance, and people are taking everything OpenAI and Anthropic are saying at face value as if this isn't the financial / marketing equivalent of war, assuming they they wouldn't use every legal and shady tactic, bending every truth available to them to sway the balance of public opinion in their favor. It makes me feel like I'm living in the twilight zone. People need to wake up.

And just like that, HN became pro-2nd amendment.

An incomprehensible amount of money is at stake in an upcoming IPO.

Traditional companies took out superbowl ads, OpenAI manufactures "scares". It's extremely unethical. But we're facing biblical levels of greed here, OpenAI is still wildly unprofitable, so they will attempt to survive at any cost.

Don't trust the AI companies.

It's not just $2k lost here. There's a lot to be said about the immeasurable value of a high-trust society.

As another commenter said: It's incredibly easy to not get shot; don't burglarize someone's home the same way you wouldn't jump in front of a moving train.

Nature is a painting, not a pattern.

They can watch me flipping them all off for an eternity as I descend into the abyss.

I do not have this issue. (Yes, I am on Linux/Wayland)

> That is the only possible explanation for how fish could have populated isolated mountain lakes

I hate how much of historical science is performed this way. Speculation is not very scientific.

Isn't it strange. We don't, and yet they all still flock here.

I'm fascinated with how that game is almost entirely written in Lua.

> The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him; but the tree Gharqad would not say, for it is the tree of the Jews. Sahih Muslim 2922

When they're surrounded on every side by people who devote their lives to Hadith such as these, I can't blame them. Their enemies set up bases under hospitals, schools. Their wives and children are human shields. I think they're doing pretty well with the situation they've been handed. The situation is more complex than "They're firing on civilian populations", because their enemy fights in civilian clothing, and hides in civilian crowds. They're stuck between a rock and a hard place and are doing what they can to survive.

I have to agree. There are things that I want to do with my sway scratchpad that are just not possible because the config vocab is so limited. I might port my config to hyprland and give it a shot.

Every time I think I have money I get massive insurance bills, massive property tax bills that increase seemingly every year, a fence I had to install so my kids don't get mangled by the pitbull 2 doors down that was $12k that was $4k 10 years ago. I know because my parents installed the same fence at their house. I'm paying a not insignificant portion of my income into a social security program that I'll never see a dime of. And I'm in my 30's. I can't imagine what kids in their 20's are going through.

When I was a kid I used to think that theives would break through my windows and steal my TV. Now that I'm an adult, I realize I'm being robbed daily through legal channels.

They also have to pay for staff / model training. Those are not cheap.

There will be plenty of model providers with prices that undercut Anthropic/OpenAI's prices.

I built a computer last year and made sure it had a blu-ray drive in it. There are very few cases that have built-in CD bays any more.

We're never getting away from Javascript, are we

So you're saying we should fund the UNRWA and Gaza again, or what?

This is one reason why I can't stand hn. Edgelord nihilistic comments that say nothing matters and take everything for granted get up-voted while credible and rational statements about God get down-voted.

Hopefully. So far it seems to be doing more harm than good.

I wish I could go back in time and visit to see what it was like.

MSG database stands for "Madison square garden database", not "Message database". I think the title should be updated to avoid confusion.

That can often depend on how you write it.
