At least one of the links on the post is still to localhost:3000 instead of the vercel page. I don't want to make a substack account to tell the author so hopefully this information finds its way over there.
Is there? I don't see many control group companies working in absence of a CEO.
Seems people have been very clear on this and you keep dragging it back to points already made.
Everything matters. Luck matters as much as the other things.
And they are completely useless.
I certainly have no agreement with the Texas police or any government through which I could have waived any rights.
Wireless cell communications have no expectation of privacy?
I'm not sure how healthy veganism or vegetarianism are for your entire lifespan, but our diets could and should use much less meat, like 5% the currently consumed amount of meat or less. Such a diet would suitable to the vast majority of people and I'm not really sympathetic nor receptive to arguments centered on the small minority of people for which such a diet would be dangerous or intractible. As a vegetarian in a southern state I get to deal with a culture that thinks everything needs meat. Fucking bacon in milkshakes. It's a little ironic that I now also get to hear complaints that my tiny minority choice is somehow negatively impacting the carnivors.
HN title is missing the operative word "secretly". The real title:
Mayor Mamdani Says Landlords Can’t Secretly Use AI Images to Advertise Properties
The article contents align with the real title: you just disclose AI usage when advertising rentals.
Not really. It's a race to the bottom.
Where are the promo pop ups and the CTA asking me if I want to buy a giant cookie, cheese sticks, or a 2 liter at 200% markup?
If it's lethal for you don't be one. We aren't really to the point where anyone should be legitimately concerned that veganism will be influencial enough to crowd you out of your preferred diet.
It's wild how different this person's experience has been from mine. I guess I could see how a team of people would see lower (or no) productivity gains than an individual when it comes to using LLMs. My theory is, as teams scale, doing work faster is always a coordination problem and that coordination gets harder as you add more workers, so each worker has more and more of their productivity stripped as pure overhead. This happens with LLM "workers" as well, except an LLM cannot effectively supervise itself whereas a human worker can, so adding an LLM adds the overhead penalty to the human operator. And human operators begin to drown in that overhead, and their own personal productivity suffers.
In this case it seems like "enjoying the process" might lead to more short and long term gratification.
so I don't know why we are acting so naive about Texas and co.
It's a bad metaphor. I'm just saying they don't have to directly say what it is they want these sites to do to coerce them to do it.
The states have applied intentionally onerous requirements onto these sites with full knowledge that would most likely not comply making them de facto blocks. You wouldn't be fooled if a gangster said "that's some nice kneecaps you got there, it would be a shame if something happened to them" so I don't know why we are acting so naive about Texas and co.
My car has AC controls that are only accessible via touch screen. Most new cars do.
And what are governments doing?
What do you mean "we were promised"? There were people saying "renewable would be sufficient" and then there were people who controlled the purse, and second group didn't give a shit what the first group had to say and kept fracking and digging for oil and coal.
They have definitely done some damage but there's some overlap between "special interest groups" and anti-nuclear if I'm not mistaken. If you're catching my drift.
Whether it's federal, state, or local, you're going to see laws imposed on the 40% of people who don't agree with it. From what I've seen it's the federal legislature that is interested in protecting my rights and the state and local legislatures that want to infringe on my rights. The governments we are under have never been particularly hands off.
We are arguing over how much agency children should have. The article argues they should have more, the comment you originally responded to said practically definitionally we limit the agency of children. The obvious implied point is that it's not unreasonable to think their phone use may be part of the agency that they are denied, and that would not be a departure from how children are treated.
They were, mostly because they were actively undermined by Republican administrations and "special interest groups" going back decades.
Unfortunately as much as we love the idea of rewarding merit, it isn't actually "fair" in the truest sense of the word. Because everyone is born into different conditions, no one ever has the same opportunities, so you may be more capable than someone else through no fault of your own. Choosing the worse educated out of identically scoring students is one of the few times we decide to tip the scales. Unfortunately again good employment opportunities feel like a zero sum game right now.
"Hooked" is any foot in the door aside from merit such as sports recruitment, child of staff, child of alumnus, or international student. Unhooked is everyone who has to get in on merit alone.
... Do you understand feedback loops? Yes? Interconnected climate systems where one system hits a threshold and accelerates change in one direction which causes another system to hit a threshold faster causing a cascade of systems to fall over until all the thresholds have been reached? Why are you showing me a document about the economic impact of "current" carbon levels applied linearly as if this system grows predicably and linearly and the economy and future technology grow as some linear function of those inputs? Do you not even understand the basic premise that the people you're criticizing operate from? If not, why are you talking about this like you know anything about it?

The second a product appears too scarce or expensive for sustained use, I steer away from it. I don't need to become attached to things I can't rely on. Fable gobbles up tokens at a completely unreasonable rate anyway so it's basically useless. The other day it chewed through my 5 hour session window for all models in about an hour. Leaves a pretty sour taste in your mouth.
The Claude file, documentation, and memories you leave in the project are part of the harness. Most of Claude's forgetfulness can be eliminated with strategic placement of documentation. After you've got that figured out, you'll have to compact the session long before it forgets because it starts getting sloppy and slow at high context. With your guidance it will basically keep its own harness updated for you as the project progresses.
And it also helps to give it better tools than grep and find to explore, because it can waste lots of tokens and pollute the context with the defaults.
Completely agree. It's a bad system, to put it mildly. I'd say it's a surprise it's lasted 250 years, but it hasn't. It lasted 100 years until the Civil War practically rewrote the Constitution with the 14th Amendment and it's been 150 years since then.
No, it doesn't look like a strawman. Your poor and vague characterization of the enormous amount of effective action we can take shows how motivated you are to ignore the reality of the situation in favor of the reality you prefer, which is the one where you can feel okay with doing nothing. Please fuck off and stop actively hindering people who give enough of a shit to do anything. Thanks.
