I can definitely see where you're coming from, but I think both can be true at the same time: Jensen regretting genuinely what happened and taking responsibility, while the PR department also steered and approved the message.

GP's take seems to assume bad faith, regardless of the message. Mu question was aimed at finding out what GP would actually consider a "genuine" response in this situation.

Correct! I agree with all the praise in this thread, saw it back in the day and considering a rewatch.

Curious what you think would be the 'correct' course of action in such a scenario

Thanks, I was on the fence but downloaded StreetComplete yesterday and made a couple edits in my neighborhood. Still need to install StreetMeasure and some parts of the UX I still need to get used to. I was surprised by the low number of contributors in my country though.

Black Mirror vibes

I see what you did there :)

I loved reading this, thanks for sharing your take

These kind of articles are becoming unreadable

I took the time to read this article last night, just wanted to let you know it was a great read. I liked the topic, the research you did and the writing style as well.

The enthusiasm described by the author feels familiar! Every once in a while I send emails to 'random' people without expecting too much. During covid I emailed a C64 developer why a certain enemy type from one of his games in 1986 had a certain name. He responded a few days later with a lengthy and in-depth explanation.

Last week I saw and photographed a sticker with street art near my office. I tried tracking down the artist (he was from a neighboring country), found him and tried to find some contact info. I emailed him if he knew how his art reached my city. He answered that the art piece on the sticker was something he created 30 years ago for a festival and that - apparently - an unknown person made stickers using his art.

Sending a short email does not take a lot of time, but it's very rewarding when the other party answers.

Perfect timing - Sharopolis just released a video [0] using this exact disassembly to mod Super Mario-style physics into the game.

He used Claude Code to 'vibe code' the assembly changes, leveraging the fact that the disassembly identifies about 2KB of unused memory. It’s a fascinating look at how LLMs can now navigate and modify 40-year-old Z80 assembly when provided with a well-documented codebase like this one.

The video sparked a lot of discussion in the comments, with some people being very upset he used AI for this.

While I do agree with the content, this tone of writing feels awfully similar to LLM generated posts that flood some productivity subreddits recently. Are there really people who "spend weeks planning the perfect architecture" to build some automation tools for themselves? I don't buy that.

Commenter's history is full of 'red flags': - "The real cost of this complexity isn't the code itself - it's onboarding" - "This resonates." - "What actually worked" - "This hits close to home" - "Where it really shines is the tedious stuff - writing tests for edge cases, refactoring patterns across multiple files, generating boilerplate that follows existing conventions."

Why would you say something like that?

Try https://archive.is/6k5d8, that copy is not impacted by the Cloudflare issues

Looks like it. Even sites like isup.me seem to be down, lots of cloudflare error messages across the net

Archive.is doesn't work on all sites to bypass the paywall. Media companies that are truly concerned about this should modify their paywall configuration.

An Bob Ross-like painting with "tiled faces of Nic Cage" would be awesome!

That's actually a good breakdown. I was aware of AI trying hard to 'build report', but your examples show that it's even more subtle than I realized myself.

Would you be willing to give an example of this?

When the pandemic forced me to work from home, incorporating a 20 minute morning walk in the neighborhood before work was one of the first things I added to my routine. It's great to make the 'transition' and also starts up the body faster.

Unfortunately this doesn't work for notifications such as 'lap times' from the Garmin app. This is also considered media by the phone.

An example I can think of is when you're listening to a podcast or music that has been recorded on low volume. Without a volume mixer you're forced to increase the general volume, resulting in overly 'loud' sound notifications from other apps.

In The Netherlands the teletext system of the Dutch public broadcasting system does still exist and has a loyal following. It's also available on the web [1] and as a mobile app.

Even nowadays I still use it a lot myself for a quick catch up of the news. Some of the benefits: - Since space is limited, the news stories are ultra short and to the point - No ads - No "related stories" - No toxic comment sections - No misleading 'thumbnails'

It doesn't take longer than a minute or two to catch up on the most important stories.

I think that part of the appreciation that we have for content, is the amount of effort put in it, even when the result is similar. I don't think a lot of people would visit a museum if they knew upfront that 90% of the art was low effort stuff, generated by AI. A chess tournament with human players will be more interesting to visitors than a tournament with a bunch of chess bots playing each other. Interacting with bots on HN wouldn't be fun at all if you knew they were bots, even when they are indistinguishable from real humans.

I never thought about it like that, but it definitely makes sense now. I open my FB account only once every two weeks or so now, and there is so much uninteresting clickbaity stuff from random accounts that it never takes me more than 30 seconds.

I like this. How does this work? Is there an api you use to obtain the text from the wiki articles?

The YouTube channel of Nomadic Ambience might be interesting for you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OSidavbRDI

I really like this metaphor

I'm not sure how media mentioning HN as a source is worth a discussion on Hacker News. Could you elaborate on what exactly can be discussed here?

Reminds me of the Dutch government who "accidentally" deleted confidential documents that were related to the formation of a new government. The process is under investigation, and the documents containing transcripts of conversations could be used as evidence against some political figures. This is even more remarkable, since government bodies are typically very sloppy if it comes to document retention.
