This is genuinely racist. You are a vile human being.

Perhaps it’s time for to GTFO? Is that the message?

Hacker News really resembles a MAGA rally at times

The xenophobic ignorance of this sentence is breathtaking. America, of all places, is a nation built precisely by immigrants.

Having said that, I’m not sure banning H1Bs or immigrants in general is going to help American workers. Take tech for instance. Many tech leaders are immigrants. If they hasn’t taken in the Jensen Huang’s, Sergei Brin’s, Sundar Pichai, etc… the companies they lead and jobs they created would be elsewhere. It’s amazing how immigrants have shaped the US tech scene:

Second, when you ban immigrants/H1B, companies get around the ban by outsourcing to foreign countries.

I don’t know the particulars of this Texas case, but the lack of green space in American cities is often the result of a car centric and building height limited urban planning.

Paris is an excellent example of how urban density and green space can go hand-in-hand.

I chalk it up to an American technical class who consider the height of good writing to be an O’Reilly book.

“In other words, AI is on track to perform at base competence on most tasks in about three years. These researchers believe agents will need another few years to outperform humans”

LLMs have shown steady improvements, but it’s a big assumption they will continue their performance gains, and specifically, that it’s a simple matter of time before they surpass human level performance on “most tasks”. (In six years no less!) The author is claiming LLMs are fundamentally AGI capable.

This is not going to end well. At least I will be able to pick up used DDR5 memory and GPUs on the cheap in the not too distant future.

More broadly, I think this an instance of how AI/Deep Learning is turning over technologies (photos, video, voice communications) we have come to rely upon, and for us to continue to rely upon, they will need to be radically reworked with security as a starting point, not an afterthought.

A similar problem is emerging for photos and videos. We also soon need cryptographically signed devices in order to be used in journalism or to be admissible in court.

Otherwise we are going back 150 years where we depend on in-person communication and eyewitness accounts.

I'm only a casual fitness tracker so the Apple Watch fits my needs better.

Whatever good Musk has accomplished with SpaceX will be offset by the harm he has done to biomedical research in the final accounting.

Just get it to work reliably the cheapest and quickest way possible. This ‘craft’ stuff is just too much.

Design by committee is how Europe works. It’s also a reason Europe moves slower and is less innovative than America.

Works just as well.
