i dont follow em closely but wasnt there a new firefox ceo who wanted to push AI everywhere

- start with this website https://www.xjavascript.com/blog/ block it everywhere

imagine if we had a browser like kagi with its own engine from scratch where you are not the product and it charged you a monthly subscription for privacy free browsing

- its like going at the speed of light to achieve 100% accuracy.

- you ll keep getting closer and closer but you ll never be at 100% as long as you have a non zero mass

- it is a very very very very fancy autocomplete

- top tier work

- let us say i wanted to bring a city to life like this

- what does the procedure look like on my end

- what inputs, tools, libraries would i need to go about doing this?

- anyone mind explaining to a beginner what kind of algorithm is used to achieve this effect

- i can see it changes size on clicking and dragging

- so what is the author actually doing?

- challenge should be renamed to "build a 3d first person shooter that fits on a single floppy disk"

- now that would be very interesting to see

- extremely stupid question but please entertain me here a bit

- why dont any of the modern browsers open and load pages instantaneously anymore, why does it take seconds?

- is this because of backward compatibility support where you are supporting html, css and JS features all the way back to the 90s

- apart from gecko and v8 why dont we have browser engines?

- are you familiar with anyone building an entire browser engine from scratch? how many WhatWG specifications would they have to support

- with all the GPT hype of late, why havent we seen a single GPT yet capable of building a browser engine from scratch supporting the last 20 years of html, css and js specs?

- where are you getting reddit data from? for this site of yours? https://cuescout.com/

- reddit API access is almost unavailable to anyone these days

- the only alternative is something called devvit which I am not familiar with but i am sure it doesnt give you API data

- even if it was available, you get only 3 endpoints, posts, comments, subreddits and there is a stream endpoint for latest posts and comments i think

- you are also charging money for what is essentially reddit data? how does that work with respect to their TOS?

natural language will never be 100% deterministic

- stop using ollama

- https://sleepingrobots.com/dreams/stop-using-ollama/

- very stupid comment: i still have no idea what this project does even after reading the README

- can someone kindly explain what is the actual problem statement and what the author is trying to solve here?

- can someone with expertise shed some light on how do you go about figuring out how a game like quake 3 works

- now i know someone would say "just read the source code bro" but i am not a 3d game dev

- as a beginner, how do you wrap your head around a codebase as complicated as quake or something?

- stop making bloated stuff

cuts down carbon footpriunt which in the long run ll help cut down temperatures

- maybe consider electrifying the entire freight network of the USA like some of the other countries have done (mind you very large countries)

- then you might not have to worry increasing heat levels that much

- dont have access to that article

- anyone wanna chime in and explain why?

- the war has surely been going on back and forth for a while now

- why suddenly start selling now?

- stupid question: how do you make a programming language like this from scratch?

- what is the thought process that goes into making a programming language

- what is this field of study or discipline called?

- why do we have so many programming languages? what purpose do they intend to solve and how do we know what purpose a programming language was made for?

- for example, why was swift made if objective c exists and why was objective c made if c++ exists?

- LLMs are not good for design

- LLMs lack so far in anything that involves actual human creativity

- Sure they can build the most generic prototype of a webapp that is needed but they sure as hell wont make a unique one

- "I am the hope of the universe".

- "I am the answer to all living things that cry out for peace".

- "I am protector of the innocent. I am the light in the darkness. I am truth. Ally to good! Nightmare to you!"

did you actually use AI to write that? it sounds like an "the hard part is not A but B" which is literally what every LLM model generates

- i really dont get why some of the guys go out of their way to hide the archive page https://www.normaltech.ai/archive

- i would assume it is reasonable that anyone comes and see what other posts a person has written except you cant find that page anywhere linked

- bolt.dev, lovable, what is this?

- distribution is why you need free services offered by other founders of other startups who have experience doing this

- https://github.com/zupcode-com/awesome-free-services-for-you... I am going to post soon on HN with a full list of 50000 free services to build your next startup from scratch offered by real humans

- When I read an article that goes like "it is not A, it is B" i know for a fact that someone used an trash LLM to generate it

- added to my list of stier blogs

- for a blog to qualify as stier, it must animations and visualizations to explain the idea in a way that even a 5 yr old can understand

- a tier is information heavy like authentic guides from betterstack

- everything else goes below b tier

- one day i ll share my list of 10000 blogs on hackernews, it ll blow the people s mind as i have been doing this for a while now

- sometimes i really remember that image of a the evolution of man and at the last step it says we need to turn back

- some of the recent inventions genuinely feel like "oops this is a bad idea, lets go back one step"

- a non deterministic system that actively atrophies skills and people actively signing up for it left and right has to be one of the wildest things i have seen in my lifetime so far

untracked economy at scale. like a tonne of work, occupation, money is not documented or doesnt enter the system channels

the article makes a lot of predictions and every single one of em is based on how things work in the USA
