This is the more valuable take. AI simply accelerated an existing condition.

Good point, clearly a solar system with too many liberals and no second amendment.

Industrial use cases will be huge once software+AI are firing on all cylinders.

I’m a skeptic on the consumer side of this being a runaway hit like smartphones.

Enterprise and industrial and the trades use cases in physical space is big.

trying to figure out what is salvageable in my project https://pura.xyz

the routing market is bloody as hell. agents aren’t using their own bank accounts (yet).

crypto was never the point, but the only way around KYC.

and I overbuilt way beyond the status quo.

probably sounds really familiar these days at the speed of AI-enabled development.

I totally hear what you’re saying.

I’ve been in the industry a long time. Even before LLMs, I think web design would get stuck in cycles. So I just want it to spit out something that looks novel and interesting, which pushes me to coach it even better.

Anyone have good lines to include in a prompt to direct LLMs from their default tailwind/Linear/etc. design modes on the first shot?

the biggest lever is discard strategy. medium and hard bots should track which cards you pick up from the discard pile and avoid feeding cards near those ranks or suits, while dumping high-value deadwood early. they should also judge each draw by how much deadwood it actually removes, and whether it sets up a knock, instead of just counting current melds. the hard bot can guess your hand from your pickups and discards to play defensively. if they're still losing to easy, the bug is probably in the scoring function itself. have it log win-rate per rule so you can see which one is dragging it down.

Looks like plenty of recent prior art on this:

I am a runner and have a standing desk. When I run, my mind is more on than at the computer. These days when I run I mentally compose prompts for the LLM when I return to my computer. So beware the illusion that simply walking away is inherently, and unintentionally, meditative. Likewise at my standing desk, the physicality of standing turns all at-desk time into an almost combative wrestling match with my tasks. Just sharing… some optimizations from 15 years of life hacking but still can’t escape the deeper psyche stuff.

Recently in La Jolla, where presumably you have high wealth and IQs and tourism, and experienced the same thing—mostly fidget stuff, puzzles, and Lego resellers. The kids were so excited to go in but pretty quickly realized it’s effectively just a physical Amazon home page of mediocre plastic stuff.

I wish the README had a solid “what cool things you can do with this” right at the top.

In this day and age when programming is so accessible, why not have a more tempting pitch than just book titles categorized by difficulty.

Yes, but what was the overlap

It took me a few vids to warm up to his presentation style and the production style, but now anyone else doing coffee vids seems like a total amateur/influencer/YT rusher. Early Hoffman coffee competitions were the proof point for me that he’s not simply an influencer entrant.

His presentation still is still a bit forced and orchestrated to me, but at least I believe he’s smart and has interest in the craft.

totally agree, and fwiw, nothing in this implementation requires that the agent verifies it themselves. the hope is something that ultimately exists as a verification mechanism on one side of an agent-to-agent interaction/delegation.

because it is true that, even though we've got some adversarial aspects built into the verification, that's not truly blind from the actor (unless you explicitly design the use of these in that way, which is what I've considered as the better design)

Intro quote: “AI can break the social contract of open source and blockchain: by forking, evolving, and hoarding code in secret, autonomous systems will outpace and eventually exclude humans from the digital commons we built. “Dark source” is the coming era of invisible, adversarial AI infrastructure, and it threatens the very premise of open innovation and decentralized value.”

Are you really looking for evidence?

Analog twins.

Did HN have the spot recently about bars where you drive RC construction equipment around in a sandbox?

It will be interesting to see how peoples' desire to operate physical objects/robots like RC competes with digital experiences as physical robotics continues to improve.

Once a controlled physical object leaves your field of view though, it probably becomes "virtual" in the sense that, sure, you could have a headset on like a drone pilot. But soon graphics and AI-generated experiences will be convincing realities.

Maybe long way of saying, how cool are toy robots about to get?

space question -- why are the three outer-most bodies as consistent in general direction as they are? it looks like something blasted us (our solar system) in a specific direction. (speaking of, is there some astronomical/solar system analog for cardinal directions? like how would I say, "looks like we've been blasted in a north-east direction"

you're not far off there Nemo, and that was a good dig on the vidalia onion guy! totally remember that

Some type of logical fallacy in the line of reasoning connecting your "quoted" text to the op.

Exploit (Oxford def.): "make full use of and derive benefit from (a resource)." Contractor (Oxford def.): "a person or company that undertakes a contract to provide materials or labor to perform a service or do a job"

Did Apple mislead these people into thinking their contracts were indefinite or not potentially bound by some end date? Did Apple retract guaranteed equity in the company?

This is literally what the contractor market is for: provide resources in increasing and decreasing amount due to market demands.

I certainly sympathize for the long tenured full time tech employees getting laid off. I really sympathize with the fact that contractors tend to be non-native or immigrant demographics, or out-sourced to other countries. Maybe that's what you were talking about, but seems like an intentionally generaliezd critique of the contracting industry.
