And the price is steep but in my opinion, you really do get a lot of value here - especially with the fact that you instantly pull a ton of your library in seamlessly. If you've been in this ecosystem for a while that's a huge selling-point - or, at least it was for me!

I had to shake my head for a moment as I was instantly transported back to 1998 with that comment lol
It would have justified the price had they included this in the base model - this is the next best thing I suppose. Valve is really coming out as the good guy here in the video game industry and we should really support and applaud all that they're doing to hold the line for consumers and fans.
thanks! I hate it!
So, the argument is, "the markets forced us to collude and price fix!"?
Sounds like "blame the victim" mentality to be honest.
Has anyone found an executive, or director at any sizable organization who is expressly anit-ai? It would be interested to see what patterns emerged from that group of folks.
it's easy ... they'll just change the definition of "carbon negative"!
I had an Amazon agent tell me that I should go and take my misdelivered packages off my neighbor's porch. I told it that that may look bad and I didn't want to get shot or have the police called on me.
The AI agent and I went back and forth for like 5 minutes before I got a person (I think!). When the human agent got on the chat I pretended that I had traumatic brain injury from slipping and falling trying to retrieve my misdelivered items.

This has of course been featured on HN a fair amount , but it's always nice to be reminded of a good thing (especially since I just discovered it thanks to a brainstorm)!
The second biggest is Microsoft's track record with hardware
so, they made a device that targets only a handful of people? They should stop letting copilot write their ad copy.
I haven't decided where I land on this idea of pointing llms at mature, human-crafted software projects (again, assuming they are moderately mature projects).
It's clearly a win for 1-man projects and greenfield projects, but maybe not for what's described above ...__yet__.
If it gets too expensive/time-consuming to scrape then it won't happen at scale (as much)?
Fine, we'll even call it "Elons Gambit" if that helps - in exchange for accepting AI in our lives 3 day weekends from here on out ...forever.
Found the "smoking gun"
What next? The trump phone shipping Chinese malware. Unthinkable!
What's a design an LLM would _loathe_?
Greed and spite.
1-3) my free time (too busy using Claude Code)
If your spaceship is broken, you'd still be able to fly back to the moon on your own just like our forefathers did! /s
It feels like the arguments here are very "status quo biased" - Ok, sure - I guess for some shops the code is the source of truth for the org and you really have to be prepared/equipped to deeply reason around the code and these so-called-patterns.
Really it seems to me that the era of "agentic coding" has uncovered some uncomfortable truths. This is purely speculative, but it seems like most shops maintain little-to-no specification documentation for defining the code behavior - the code IS the documentation and that feels dangerous from a software engineering / architectural statdpoint.
Did blender charge you thousands of dollars when you touched it wrong when you tried to learn to use it? /s
This is the way - lightweight build process - host it on your private tailnet to consume the document on whichever device you so choose - tablet, phone - also makes it easier to share with co-colaborstors etc. in a more secure way.
It's so funny, because I was JUST telling a colleague of mine - another librarian - this exact fact about sqlite!
This seems wildly dangerous at best and malware at worst. This should not be as high as it is on HN right now.
I wonder if it's not so much the coding that people don't want to write, but it's more about the weight of all the orchestration, data engineering and research that has to be done (or, understood in the first place) to get anything off the ground these days. It feels off the charts complicated, and of course is now shifting rapidly.
Congrats and guard your sleep hygiene as much as possible (practically impossible advice to follow in most cases).
I went through a really rough period because of the lack of sleep. I noticed that hydration during that period was also challenging, so I wonder if this is related to the brain shrink effect.
The trick is to be on one of the two extremes in terms of skill. Suck harder?
In this economy, it may be sage advice.
When I first started using Claude, one of my fist big projects was tightening up my backups and planning around recovery. It's more or less inevitable if you're opening up permissions wide enough to do this without your explicit OK
