It is unfortunate that they decided to stop doing open-weight releases.

What could have been interesting has been reduced to simply another subpar LLM release.

Zionism is the idea that the Jewish people deserve a national state. Being anti-Zionist is equivalent to wanting Israel to not exist as a national state.

It's strange. For decades we've been trying to move towards GUIs, now we're moving backwards.

Yes they do in fact, it's called darwin XNU

This is a massive cope. It is glaringly obvious that the world is losing languages at a higher rate than it is gaining them.

There is a very clear trend towards linguistic consolidation and mass-media, literacy, and the internet / instant communication have accelerated this trend. In my home country of Romania teens often talk to each other in English, even though they all speak Romanian natively. We're also seeing an immense amount of calques, competing with native expressions and often overpowering them. I would honestly not be surprised if in 50 years many national languages start to only be spoken in official circumstances.

It's worse than nothing, since inevitably people will use this thinking it's 100% safe when it's not.

Likely the opposite, as safe Rust has some extra safety checks for things like array bounds.

It's strange how quickly this project got so big... It did not seem like anything particularly novel to me.

> Hard to find fully specified problems like this in the wild.

This is such a big and obvious cope. This is obviously a very real problem in the wild and there are many, many others like it. Probably most problems are like this honestly or can be made to be like this.

Seems dangerous to wager your entire application on such an uncertainty

Unfortunately they're still too superficial. 9 times out of 10 they don't have enough context to properly implement something and end up just tacking it on in some random place with no regard for the bigger architecture. Even if you do tell it something in an AGENT.md file or something, it often just doesn't follow it.

> I don’t read code anymore

Never thought this would be something people actually take seriously. It really makes me wonder if in 2 - 3 years there will be so much technical debt that we'll have to throw away entire pieces of software.

Because LLMs are bad at reviewing code for the same reasons they are bad at making it? They get tricked by fancy clean syntax and take long descriptions / comments for granted without considering the greater context.

I think it would, given that there is no air resistance.

You can use it right now if you build it from source, in fact I am writing this HN comment from it.
