You joke but, yeah, when you think about it, the problem with Javascript is the 'script' part. That's actually correct.

I honestly don't understand how you could do JS on the backend in 2026. This language and ecosystem are so bad it's ridiculous. Almost all other options (yes, even PHP) are better.

On the browser at least you have the excuse that there's no other option (hoping Wasm will eventually kill JS for good, but we're not there yet).

Hrm I doubt it actually. Llms are capable of discovery, as recent math news showed. This means a "society" of Llms could likely have progress.

This is an excellent bookmarklet to have:

``` javascript:(function()%7B let i%2C elements %3D document.querySelectorAll('body *')%3B for (i %3D 0%3B i < elements.length%3B i%2B%2B) %7B if(getComputedStyle(elements%5Bi%5D).position %3D%3D%3D 'fixed' %7C%7C getComputedStyle(elements%5Bi%5D).position %3D%3D%3D 'sticky')%7B elements%5Bi%5D.parentNode.removeChild(elements%5Bi%5D)%3B %7D %7D %7D)() ```

Sometimes, this one is needed to fix scrolling after using the previous one:

``` javascript:var r="html,body{overflow:auto !important;}"; var s=document.createElement("style"); s.type="text/css"; s.appendChild(document.createTextNode(r)); document.body.appendChild(s); void 0; ```

I may be wrong on the movies' timelines, but isn't a 386 too modern for the 1980s?

Not sure if it's really "highly debatable" that an entity that appears conscious is therefore conscious.

The Chinese room thought experiment is obviously flawed to me. It's not the "computer" that is conscious, it's the running software.

Honestly I think they're just booing at "AI" in general. He could have talked about any other topic. Imagine how graduates feel about AI.

HN is literally full of contradictory stories when it comes to which model is better. It's impossible to know if one is objectively better than another, I suspect they're more or less equivalent. People who just recently had a particularly good experience will post that the model they used is better than the other ones. People who just recently had a particularly bad experience will say the model "got worse"...

It's all based on vibes!
