All model providers do this lmao

I echo the top comment - the politics here have gotten out of control.

Like it or not, Elon and his companies have changed the world for the better.

You are allowed to separate the human from the human's impact sometimes.

Generally speaking, classifying a house as "McMansion" feels like a form of gatekeeping. If the person who lives there enjoys it, who are we to judge?

I'm asking genuinely, how is this top of HN? The comments seem to indicate that HN overall doesn't find this article to be valuable at its face.

Seems to happen a lot with "ragequitting" posts. I feel like I could write "Microsoft Just Lost Me" and it could get to the top.

Lmao I'm no David Fowler fan (leftist blowhard), but he's one of the most talented and successful engineers at Microsoft. I don't think he needs to build a resume.

Who?

I don't have an opinion of Elon Musk. What would you say to those who think he's a value-add to the world, or are completely neutral about them (as I am)?

Do you really think your values are that pervasive, even here in HN (which tends towards an echo chamber)?

Ignoring the spotlight is detrimental.

As a person who does consulting work, the best thing I've found I can do is stay visible with my accomplishments.

I did a presentation earlier this year for a client where the CEO was in attendance. I did not know he was going to be there. They were blown away by my presentation.

You make your own luck.

What should anyone with an X account be ashamed of, exactly?

I'm a simple man. I see Andrew Lock, I upvote.

Thanks for all of the comments. I wasn't replying simply because I haven't seen them, but based on the comments I actually got: I feel like my words would be like yelling into a vacuum regardless of what I actually say.

Just to be clear, I'm not part of any "resistance". I don't know what that is. Sounds awfully tribalistic - something I go out of my way to avoid.

Hi, Trump voter here. I'm NOT fine with this.

I've always liked the slightly different ending: "I just want my wife to be happy." And she ends up in the shack. This one is a little different!

This is very clearly written by ChatGPT. See: https://www.seangoedecke.com/chatgpt-house-style/

A shame that so much of the discourse centers around one person, when in reality competition in the AI market - regardless of who it is - helps us all.

No one seemed to bat an eye when DeepSeek essentially distilled an entire model from OpenAI.

6 months severance speaks volumes more about this layoff than the video does.

The remaining thing that stings for companies is how foreign devs still need to be amortized for 15 years.

I'm having a hard time seeing the issue with this.

No, it’s not. Policy is the ultimate determinant.

I voted for Trump and the Republicans because I felt they aligned with my interests. I know a few absolute Trump haters who voted for Trump because they felt at the time that he aligned better with their interests.

That said, Trump and the Republican's bombastic language was a turn off for me.

I think your greater point is lost in your vitriol. You undermine your own arguments by using such bombastic language.

The lack of controls on anything related to ad running is astounding. How they make money at all blows my mind.

Deus Ex showing us time and time again that it was decades ahead of its time.

"The need to be observed and understood was once satisfied by God. Now we can implement the same functionality with data-mining algorithms."

What immediately sprung to mind is how the deaf community has seen things like this as a personal and existential threat.

To me it's an obvious disability, and deaf people SHOULD want to be cured, but tribalism wins that argument all too often.

I think you missed the point.

Companies like John Deere have way overplayed their hand, and I'm glad to see the regulatory winds are changing.

They call them "slippery slopes" for a reason. Why were they collecting this data at all, and why is it constitutional?

Thanks for replying, and I can safely say that most of us just want first-class conformity with OpenAI's API without JSON schema weirdness (not using refs, for instance) baked in.

I feel like the first MVB was Maddox - too bad he fell way off.
