Can this be called "Capitalism" when SpaceX is now a public company?

regexes > Claude. Even Anthropic knows this.

I got my agent to fill it out for me, but it won't tell me my score!

how, exactly, AI can be integrated into daily life.

Aka "what is it good for?"

You're saying that as long as it proceeds as expected, then all will be ok. In the worst case (eg, at the 2,000ppm you indicate as an upper range, or after some mis-step in the process), what ppm chlorine gas would be created, and what would happen if you got a noseful of that at close quarters?

This is just terrible advice.

To draw a parallel - airport Ubers are still $5, but you can't buy a 2nd hand prius any more!

Please don't tell me you're recommending that people smell their DIY chlorine chemistry to determine what they've made?

"AI Overview" blithely tells me HOCL can be easily made from the electrolysis of salt water.

Looking even a little deeper (Wikipedia) confirms that chlorine chemistry, especially when combined with electrolysis, is very complex, and it's hard to know if you're making the right thing. FWIW every sensible electrolysis-based DIY project has dire warnings about electrolysing solutions of common salt.

For reference, OP is talking about the 510(k) process. One of the issues with that process is that an approved medical device may end up with a whole tree of "derivative" devices approved through the 510(k) process. If that original device is then found to have problems and has its approval removed, those derivative devices do not also become unapproved.

We are ever-faster approaching the Anti Singularity, the moment when everything "tech" implodes and progress screeches to a halt.

Some say he was let go after a design error lead to some dwarves kicking over the first stonehenge.

At least we don't have to worry about asymptomatic cases :-)

Right. If you were previously digging with your bare hands, and one day everyone starts turning up with these new-fangled shovels, you'll find that both your hand-digging skills are not needed, and that hole production may exceed demand.

you’ll be replaced by someone who is better at using AI

I place very little value in the idea of "getting better at using AI". It's like getting better at using a library, or getting better at using Google. Now that LLMs are widely available, their entire intent is to make it significantly easier to access information held in a truly vast body of written work.

I have also seen no evidence that understanding the resulting generated code is necessary.

If your job has a large component of regurgitating existing information, you are now competing with a machine that can regurgitate hugely more information and with lower-skilled operators.

You'll be replaced by someone cheaper using AI.

If you use AI to do your work, you can be replaced by someone else using AI to do your work.

To be very frank, nothing in the blog post is ground-breaking or interesting enough to be on HN. The only thing it has is its (probably knowingly) controversial title, and as such, I have no problem directing technical and nit-picking ire at it.

I doubt the Zig maintainers will miss the giant PRs from Bun!

I suspect one part of the puzzle is that Bun used its own fork of Zig, that had diverged signficantly in design and direction from mainline Zig.

That's my point - I don't see any hope of removing the 10,000+ unsafe calls, especially not one step at a time.

As such, this is a publicity stunt.

tsgo will inherit many benefits from go, even if it is never fully "idiomatic".

This is in direct contrast to this port, which requires significant re-architecting (or made "idiomatic", if you wish) in rust to achieve any of the benefits of the language. You can't re-architect one step at a time.

Giant slop-filled PR (that will power future slop-generation) has caused slop-coded Github to stop loading properly.

The Anti-Singularity is approaching ever quicker!

Right, so what we have here is a very expensive regex.

Why didn't they ask Claude to remove all of the `unsafe` at the same time??

No-one (sensible) claims that a CPU "runs" C.

No need!

Technically it runs AVR-RISC :-)

Fun project though!

Oh god. How long before yet another UB-based question ends up in technical coding interviews?

Who would want to privately own a community helipad? Sounds like an insurance and liability nightmare.

This is an impressive enough achievement, but let's not kid ourselves this is going to revolutionaise suburban or semi-rural transport. Its maximum payload weight (450kg) barely covers 5 passengers with no baggage. It's for hopping from the country club to the golf course.

I don't understand how that would be possible with the lack of anywhere to land in denser urban areas. This is a toy to hop over to the golf course.

Given the current state of battery technology, this is probably the only possible commercial use case. Even then, you have serious limitations like low passenger capacity, takeoff/landing still requires a helipad, recharge time, and the questionable safety in the event of motor or hinge malfunction.
