ESL BTW so if I said something wrong or it sounds mean, don’t assume the worst. Thx

There are instances where we don’t exist. We exist here right now though which is cool. Say what you want and shoot your shot.

moomoo11··on Why I'm still bearish on LLMs after Navier-Stokes
the issue most of you seem to not realize is that when you put these models in a loop, you are able to do more and more insane and cool things.

have you guys actually designed, built, and deployed agentic workflows?

it is actually quite hard, requires tons of time spent on evals and testing to ensure accuracy, but when it starts to work it is mind blowing.

there is no going back.

listening to people yap about AI when they have only surface level or one dimensional exposure to LLMs and "AI", but have not actually put innovations to work IN PRACTICE.. is a waste of time

yes and it wasn’t always that way. most of these trends of the “god like” founder are maybe from the past 30 years.

and it reeks of extractive personalities that took over

moomoo11··on Dystopian Surveillance Is Becoming a Reality
i mean do you want the honest answer? i’m not a white american guy so i can say it.

importing hordes of foreign tech workers or hiring asians broadly whose culture is very much the opposite of “don’t tread on me” led to much of this.

might not be comfortable to say but most of our tech companies are led by people who aren’t “Americana” (cultural)

and broadly speaking, there are very few people like me (i’m asian) that value the American way of independence at all cost and most are just strivers and consumerist

so the goal for most of them is to make 300k base and 300k stock per year. fuck the consequences.

the days of making tech for the love of the game are long gone.

in an post agi world with rsi none of this will be necessary.

wasted effort.

moomoo11··on Ask HN: You have unlimited resources, what software would you build?
i’ll use the unlimited resources to not build software and do something else.

you gave me unlimited resources.

what are you gonna do about it?

i'd be happy moving on from gaming as "the" entertainment option on computers, in favor of something more entertaining

like can we get some new more interesting entertainment? maybe that's just me but all games look and feel the same now or worse dumbed down sometimes where even puzzles in the game have like basic or grindy aspect to them ...

moomoo11··on iPhone Duo and iPhone 18 Pro – Not Justifiable
i buy used everything these days unless i have a business need when it comes to electronics.

i still use m1 max 32gb which i got last year. i got it for $899. it replaced a intel mbp which had served me well for 5 years.

i use an iphone 15.

idk i mean i have money so im not broke or poor.

but you can bet your ass even if i had more, like $100 billion or whatever, i am STILL NOT going to drop $2k on something if its not going to make a meaningfully life changing different in my life.

it’s just a phone made for doing the Least Common Denominator type shit. like calling and texting or doom scrolling a bit

consumerism is for losers. no shame in that.

i rather just collect the money via my indirect investments including in apple if others want to blow their money tho!

i can spend it on something actually unique and interesting :) like high end audiophile earbuds which sound amazing but are brittle and have issues. so i’ll buy 2-3 pairs of those while one of them is under repair :)

moomoo11··on Shopify is moving from React Native back to Swift and Kotlin
most users can’t even use their phones properly

it is always the nerds (i’m a nerd, but also run a company and led teams before at a unicorn that IPOd) who obsess over things that normal people would probably not even come to given 100 years

case in point: even some of apples own apps don’t follow their design language.

also some of the most popular apps in the world like tiktok or x don’t use ios glass.

my bank app doesn’t use it and opts for a single theme across platforms.

and you know what? i don’t give a fuck. i just want my money transferred properly, my memes consumed on demand, and that’s about it.

moomoo11··on Shopify is moving from React Native back to Swift and Kotlin
i think many ppl don't understand this news

IMHO...

if you have a large org, a large app, lots of revenue and $$$ and resources...

it makes sense to do fully native now.

if you're a startup, you don't have the resources and $$$, you stick to RN

you can obviously have AI maintain both, but that is a cost. double maintenance = more $$$ on tokens

so many people are being doomer about this, but most people are also not Shopify

these are all tarpit ideas

i've gone on many trips before, and one of the most fun parts of it is doing the actual planning and finding stuff

i'd much rather AI do the boring shit, like when it comes to insurance with multiple parties and service providers involved that don't talk to each other at all, making things 10x more complicated than they need to be
