Also, the content is uninteresting on both.

He’a right, though. The comment was in English but used German-style quotations

Also her screen is running Doom, which wasn’t out when Jurassic Park was released (1989).

The sky gets visually and physically polluted. Some parts of the world that haven’t mastered cables get faster internet. Elon gets richer.

Win-win-win?

Knockoff shnockoff. You get an upvote for SHRDLU!

Most people here are anonymous, for all the discussions. Either trust that your fellow HNers are legitimate, or… ?

Objection: relevance

How can anyone in their right mind think that growing a codebase by 200K LOC every week could possibly be a good thing?

No, only 3.7%

Instead of just dismissing this and saying this can't possibly work, it would be better to ask: how do they get around problems of mitochondrial damage, or have they not tackled that yet?

Because it is unlikely that you just punched a hole through the plan of the several dozen people in bioengineering, life sciences, and other related fields that are at this company.

Friendly feedback:

Generally speaking, the practice of commenting here with "I thought one thing from the title, then realized it was something else" is exceedingly uninteresting.

In the event of a death, it is also in bad taste.

No keyframes, no drag-and-drop.

No human developer… :-\

Thanks for the reply.

Sure. But I think the idea is already absurd, so I'm not expecting a performant engine out of it.

I get your point though, that the same ASCII rendering effect might be doable at much higher scale without pegging the CPU.

I understand this was probably vibe-coded, but it's still a lot of fun. Well done!

When the topic is rendering 3d models using ASCII glyphs, we've already exited the realm of advantages and disadvantages. This is just supposed to be cool.

It's other people on this thread that had questions, more than me.

I'm not really implying -- I'm stating that I don't think his management chain was "afraid of being disrupted", but that they were pissed that one of their own team members released a product with Google branding that was the same thing they were about to announce in 2 weeks. It was poor judgement. Not worth a firing, though, in my opinion.

I'm noticing a few commenters who work (worked?) at Google (inferred from comment history) who are critical of this person's actions.

Tangent: did you really go through people’s histories far back enough to find out they were googlers/ex-googlers? Did you use an agent to do that?

I see justinwp is commenting here… Justin, people are asking questions that you’re not replying to. Sorry, but it’s pretty disingenuous to tweet your story and post it here, but then refuse to answer requests for more info.

I think the cause was that Workspace and certain leaders (and projects) were afraid of being disrupted. But the fear wasn't specific to my CLI, it was a broader fear in what agents meant for Workspace.

Seems to me your management chain was thinking “Why the hell is someone on our team releasing a vibe-coded CLI that’s branded to look like an official API, when we’re 2 weeks from announcing the actual CLI??” If you didn’t know there was an official CLI in the works, that’s one thing, but if you did know then that’s pretty shitty to your teammates in Workspace and bad for users who would adopt one CLI (thinking it’s official) just to then see another one 2 weeks later.

Still, I would expect a talking-to and not an actual firing… but who knows what actually happened since you’re not responding to anyone. :shrug:

DiBona definitely started the OSS group and process, and ran it for many years.

I think you meant to reply to the parent comment instead?

IIRC any FB post claiming that the Wuhan coronavirus originated in the Wuhan coronavirus lab, would be removed and could result in user ban, at request of the federal government.

Even if we knew, we’d still fail to understand GHO

Anthropic snubbed DOD and refused to bend the knee to Trump. Why is everyone shocked pikachu face that now their new model is a “national security risk”?

What a bizarre take! Have you ever been to Japan? One of the the things that makes it so wonderful is exactly the fact that it’s still mostly Japanese people + culture.

I don’t think “your population is drying up so you better replenish from other countries” is a winning pro-immigration argument.

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not (BLM riot). If you truly believe large gatherings were murder ("killed his grandma") then why would you excuse people doing so just to signal support for BLM?

The plan also fails miserably with elephants, giraffes, and rhinos.

How am I the only one here who sees this as retaliation for them not playing ball a couple of months ago?

Sounds like you don’t understand scales if you’re confused about why we have 7 note names.

Also, in your own color analogy: we have a small number of main color names, then a bunch of in betweens.
