I was taking this semi-seriously until I read his CLI complaints.
Author is unhinged.
Here's your Lean proof https://github.com/google-deepmind/formal-conjectures/pull/4...
the ruby code: ``` cat = Cat.new cat.meow ```
As a non-Ruby user, this confuses me. Why can't `Cat.new` be a function reference? Does Ruby explicitly disallow this (i.e. passing around a function)?
I can't find the source for `mine`. Do you have a link?
I agree.
There's also a universe where he could've written it Linux Torvald-style and still come across as passionate but justified.
To my dismay, a lot of projects with anti-AI sentiment are accepting security patches found with AI. Take a look at `ffmpeg` for example.
The hypocrisy is puzzling.
mostly by humans
`mostly` is doing a lot lifting here. The Go rewrite uses plenty of copilot. The reason you trust it is because you trust the people doing the rewrite.
What happens to the money in these cases? I could imagine the official taking solace knowing the money he amassed over the years would eventually go his family.
So... incompatibility for Windows Java devs using `gradlew`?
Seems very niche to me.
You know why. I know why.
The people who care about this disproportionately collect distasteful media and would be in criminal proceedings if their material was uncovered.
So... is this a dataset fishing operation essentially? You want to train or collect samples for better Lean proofs?
How do one know this? I don't know where to get this information and whether to trust it.
Morally fallen? Sure, Europe hasn't fallen yet.
Systemically and structurally? Already on its way there.
Excessive moral policing results in strangling regulations, which is exactly what Europe is facing right now. The opposite of innovation.
Good luck in your endeavors.
Au contraire, Googlers have always been strangely academic brained and stuck in niche moral echo chambers.
This is par for the course.
Go through enough pattern recognition and you'll realize it's often not someone sticking to their guns.
Would the author have left if they didn't have another job lined up? Definitely not. Then, how strong are their principles?
That's not remarkable to many.
Very cool. It's often daunting to contribute to such a well-established and recognizable project, but this is exactly how it should work.
I think we’re going to find out the hard way that the proofs left to solve are very much not elegant.
Sincerely, I don't get the motivation for this. It feels like `age` is pulling most of the work I care about. `age` is the only tool here encrypting and decrypting secrets, are you managing the orchestration of secrets with your tool?
As long as the language supports lazy evaluation and short-circuiting through expressions, then great.
Look nice but super expensive for the normal developer. Good luck with the monetization, hope you get some company customers.
He comments on this in the Hackernews post text:
Effect-TS is the full-featured option in this space and has a large ecosystem. Pure Effect offers a different tradeoff. It covers the 80% case: testable pipelines, dependency injection, retry, and OpenTelemetry hooks, all in under 1 KB with zero dependencies and no new vocabulary to learn. Effect-TS is a framework you build around. Pure Effect, on the other hand, is a pattern you drop into existing code.
Unfortunately, sun exposure (specifically UV exposure) is heavily tied to skin cancers and aging. I haven't researched it myself, but my feeling is that, ultimately, there is a calculation where sun exposure / skin risk needs be balanced on your specific genetic makeup.
We really need to drill down into ethnic and racial boundaries to really make sense of how much sun exposure helps us.
I'm convinced if Mythos/Fable comes back at this point, it will be guardrailed into lobotomy.
It won't be as good.
It's too late for this. Many government regulations and policies can be solved with money and this would be one of those squashable problems.
Maybe if Pharma companies didn't get so rich already, this could've been possible.
Ok. I think I'm good without this.
To me, social web == social media.
I don't use Facebook but use it for auth when I have no other option.
Even worse, I don't want an external service federating my identity when I can avoid it. We have all heard of people getting locked out in cases where Google decided to ban a user from their platform.
I'm never trusting an external provider again.
I can't imagine it was cheap to acquire it, so any company with VC/big Corp money would've taken it any ways.
There's a difference between consistency and efficiency.
I read efficiency as "Energy inputted to accomplish a task", in which case, biological systems are far more efficient than current-day mechanical ones. It's a tradeoff.
It's funny you're downvoted.
I agree source control is not backup, because it implies having `git` is enough. It's not. Example: an Agent or process deleting your .git folder doesn't protect your code.
