it’s not working - it’s one of the highest ranking posts - and you really don’t want to go around admitting that. seriously, take a break.

you have like 50 comments in this thread whining about the law and desperately wanting businesses (not private individuals!) to idle their trucks next to schools.

maybe take a break man. not healthy.

one of my favorite games growing up; fascinating to read the history and inspiration for such a great game.

i love that one of my favorite parts of the game (designing your own units) was the game designers' least favorite parts. hah!

i never read the pandora sequence that inspired it - thank you for sharing this article!

that is 100% the correct course of action. what an insane piece of feedback!

afaik you still need an account to read more than the first post in a thread, and many of us don't have twitter accounts any longer

hah i use llms for that now too - "option-space 'link to <foo> lang'" and chat returns faster than the whole endeavor of opening google or putting stuff into the nav bar.

i store those in my rules files - really all the knowledge i would pass onto another engineer (incl. AI). not sure i follow why you would avoid putting that into AI-readable files in your repo like i do now.

not obvious to me why this is an improvement of having the agent just update the rule files directly itself; i have it do that to my various AI-targeted readme files and it works great.

excellent post. i think the lesson is a good one: it's better to have less bugs than more bugs, and for some users, it would still have had an annoying bug.

i was reading through this and was going "huh this sounds familiar" until i read who wrote it :)

neat piece of tech! excited to try it out.

why on earth did they not post this directly to HN? who goes to twitter in 2025

or you could just use postgres + pgvector? which many apps already have installed by default.

ah yes an ill-informed whiny screed about wokeness is exactly the kind of content pg is good for. that's hacker content right there!

love that i can spin this up and spend money before any of the documentation is available. neat-o

i do like it when they take slight liberties with their captions. fantastic

love these HN comments where someone ignores the topic entirely. with search enabled it gives the correct answer and sources Wikipedia correctly, not that you tried it

i'm in the exact same boat - was really hoping to see a premium color device with buttons. not sure why they hate us :(

it claims 9.11 is larger, hah.

haha I had the precise same thought process and immediately didn't finish the article since they didn't have much attention to detail.

i enjoyed reading the appendix though as a snapshot of time.

a classic HN comment! "everyone is just like me"

absolutely incorrect, i loved that it does it for me and do not care even in the slightest and in fact this is 1000x preferable to vscode asking me.

what on earth made you think this was a reasonable reply.

yeah, fair enough. we had to build virtually all of the software from scratch, including like, IPC. i wasn't involved as much with hardware but it does seem to be much more out there these days.

still a massive accomplishment imo!

having built autonomous ROVs in college, i'm absolutely astonished at what this person accomplished essentially on their own. they are so finicky and piloting them is a whole skill set on its own.

and, what perseverance; it really did read like a detective story and what a good job distilling the cases down to their basics.

what a cool read and an absolute triumph of an accomplishment.

perfect HN comment, no notes

"i didn't try the feature and do not understand how it works, but it has AI so i hate it" is how you sound, fwiw.

i think 99% of folks would take an occasional hallucinated ffmpeg option in exchange for never having to look up the man page again. i trust the iterm dev's judgement even more after this since it's an ideal use case.

gpt-4o seems fantastic at generating cli flags and such, not sure what troubles you have run into. i am questioning your judgement of their judgement, hah.

you are going to hate most software with that attitude over the next few years

i'm sure 95% of the people are just trolling - they can't be that dense about what the change actually is as developers. just silliness.

greg egan is a f'in G. what a boss.

stopped reading after the "700000 liters of water" piece; just hand-wavy dramatic ignorance all around. yeah man we should absolutely be losing sleep of 1/6th of a cow's worth of water used for training the most advanced AI models on the planet.

not entirely sure why there aren't more people talking about this. it seems like incredible technology.

for ~$32k, you can have a teachable manipulator that can go around a 1-story house and do virtually all household tasks.

seems like a game changer. many of the costs can trivially be brought down, as well.
