That's not really true any more, since given tool use and iterative 'chain of thought' reasoning, it's more like an answer refined by conversation with the asker or the second best answerer, from the best answerer, is the best that you can expect.

E.g. consider the best answer describes how to achieve something with some CLI, but the CLI's changed and the command is now broken. It can discover that, combine with the 'best answer' about what changed in the CLI, and fix it to work for the original problem even if that's completely novel and there were no extant answers about solving the problem with the new CLI form, or that it had broken that use case.

It doesn't change fundamentally how they work of course, but 'thinking', creating that feedback loop, made them significantly more useful IMO.

That's the bit that's common, I say it's worse because it has to actually check out the full source on their server. i.e. similar to if you used Claude locally, plus used third-party CI like Circle instead of Actions.

But even worse for private stuff than using cloud inference to begin with, since it presumably has to clone the repo, have write & Actions access back, etc.

I've never heard the term 'residential proxy' before, but it seems like a Tailscale exit node would qualify for example? This doesn't seem necessarily malicious or even inadvertently dangerous to me?

It's San Francisco, there's a lot of immigration, cultural influence, etc. whereas say Australia has outsize Vietnamese, Indonesian influence; or India in the UK.

Yeah it is, because now the typing glasses are an appliance, not just your regular glasses. This makes sense for VR headsets, but it's a large part of how popular Google Glass is today.

GP is saying their choice of the glasses they want to wear all day every day is nothing to do with their choice to have something transcribe words they mouth, the latter shouldn't decide or significantly restrict the former.

The BBC names (and quotes) Sabcobel as one of the manufacturers.

Oops, thanks. Not familiar units for me, and I hadn't had a coffee.. that would be an absurd speed of course (nevermind to also have the composure to report it while experiencing it!).

Last transmission was 22k feet/second, which is 15k mph.

(I thought ATC's cool as a cucumber 'altitude your discretion' was 'interesting' – presumably a formality they need to offer to clear the aircraft, since clearly no discretion was involved.)

Nor did I claim they are, but that doesn't mean we have records of every little thing that fell out of service/production/sale/use.

For some reason the submission I saw here last week (not the same article, and I'm struggling to find now) was flagged to death before getting as popular as this one.

Weird, front page >500points today; flagged to death last week.

Is it not T. turgidum var. 'grano del miracolo'? Any previous name being, at least as far as we/the author knows, lost to time?

Right, so if I'm still rocking 4G only while 'everyone' else in the area is using 6G with some other stragglers on 5G, ...

What would solar's cost per kWh be? GP means the cost of the asset per peak generation power. 0.1/W seems about right, to an order of magnitude at least.

> You don’t want your actual currency to gain value just by waiting.

Relative to what? Talk of BTC gaining value is primarily wrt USD; I'd be perfectly happy with my actual currency (GBP) gaining value wrt USD.

I suppose BTC can only 'deflate' in the long-run (and with an assumed supply of goods and services available in exchange for it) since the mintable volume is fixed. But perhaps it exposes that talking of currencies inflating is a bit sloppy, as it doesn't really make sense for BTC, and it's the economy or banking system that inflates really..

Maybe it's an American thing.

It is but what they mean is that many implementations (e.g. PCRE) are not actually regular languages, they're more powerful: https://www.npopov.com/2012/06/15/The-true-power-of-regular-...

Using 'they' for an unknown gender has nothing to do with people 'identifying' as they, or anything modern.

It's never been 'he', except in sexism such as 'when the doctor comes he will examine you' (with the doctor's identity and hence gender unknown, but assumed male by profession).

We have a special filling cabinet for PRs from bots, Dawn!

Reading this submission's comments, I'd be interested to see a meta-analysis of HN S-1 submissions' analyses pre- and post- generalised (HN crowd's) Claude usage.

I know. This is about GitHub's behaviour with tags and branches present in different user/org's forks.

I know. We're talking about GitHub here, which does.

I would absolutely say Go took off thanks to kubernetes ecosystem & CNCF projects in general, but I've never particularly associated it with Docker myself.

On the contrary I think quite a lot of luck is usually behind the second part of that.

Is that statistic active watching, or skewed by those that leave it on 24h news or shopping or whatever 24/7?

Correct. ..did you mean to reply elsewhere perhaps?

Same on the older few. I'm not sure I understand it though, seems strange you can have a tag for a commit that's only present in a fork?

Is it perhaps a bit misleading, and only means that there's no branch containing that commit?

Well broadly speaking manslaughter is, in my layman's understanding, the killing of a person as a consequence of actions but not of intent. That does fit the bill here, if applied literally (and this problem of pre-determining all the caveats and qualifications is why law is generally not 'code').
