Why is everybody all the time in favour of AI on HN? This is objectively a good change because it will improve the quality of the code in the long term.

Using X like a normal person is hard in my opinion.

Anthropic is also based in the US though

I have no objections to torturing AI and I would happily go out of my way to do so to prevent agents getting anywhere near my code. Feel free to correct me If I'm wrong.

Good. See: "In a Way that's not trying to kill us all"

The Design Language on this announcement page is a perversion of human nature.

I have never been a part of the group that believes in frontier labs downgrading models. But this theory seems plausible to me for the first time.

This figure doesn't include pretraining cost. Which is probably higher.

That would be far too high in my opinion. But happy if anybody can give insights from their own experience with pretraining runs.

this is the rl run, not the pretraining run

I'd rather not see AI being used to generate new games for any platform. I'm not gonna read something nobody bothered to write, and I'm not gonna play something nobody bothered to write. AI has no taste and it's not a matter of post training because the Taste is the human component and actual effort put into something.

I'm less interested in the factors that obscured it's detection and more in a logical root cause. Very grateful for the medical advancements that slowed the spread of the pandemic though. As the Technology becomes more advanced so will hopefully the Risk Assesments and eventually explain Risks and Limitations of mRNA Technology.

Wow. This never crossed my mind but of course that's so simple. There really needs to be a better solution.

New comment by leothetechguy in "Who owns the code?"

leothetechguy — Tue, 18 Aug 2026 22:56:36 +0000

Personally I don't even want to own my code. If it is useful to others I want them to have the same rights I have to it.

Or should I say, In the case of AI, "my" code :)

If a score is better when it's low, isn't that measuring a deficit? I think it's intuitive.

leothetechguy — Fri, 07 Aug 2026 19:45:33 +0000

Music in the Field of Music should always come first. Sorry for the bluntness but I listen to the demo for 10 seconds and it sounds... shit. Really shit. Then I look at who made it and it looks like someone shoving a data structure into a field they know little about for the sake of the data structure itself?

I just want to use macOS plugins for music production on asahi linux. A GUI is important but not strictly necessary I guess. So yeah, limited gui support would be great.

Fine. Wishing I burned in a Fire isn't technically a Death Threat. Congratulations.

I have no incentive to be nice either, but I am because I want to. And If you are nice while constructively formulating your anger you don't get banned. easy.

sounds like you are just being an asshole because you hate the general consensus on this site, and can't be bothered to be polite in favor of creating new accounts all the time. That makes you the asshole from my perspective.

Have a great Day.

I didn't, I just went to his profile and checked the comments since I had a feeling he wasn't being rational. And I saw a lot of very angry comments made before this one.
