It's the USA, you can just ban it.

pluc··on DeepInfer: High-performance, large-scale inference framework for DeepSeek models
Has to be something other than Rust to be able to be "rewritten in Rust"

pluc··on How Quickly Can the DoD Rebuild and Recast the Munitions Industrial Base?
How quickly can the DoD rebuild the DoD is the question.
pluc··on I Automated Website Development
No you didn't, your LLM did. Just like everyone else's.
pluc··on Ask HN: How to deal with shipping AI-written code you don't understand?
The entire industry is dangerously negligent, we just have better tools and stronger incentives now. Why spend 3h code-reviewing a PR when you know if it breaks you just tell your agent to watch out for that specific scenario? Which executive will see that as time well spent?
pluc··on I will give one of my SpaceX shares to every kid in America
Currently one share is worth $146

Musk could give everyone in the USA $3000 and still have money left.

Or everyone in the world about the same price as one SpaceX share - $124.5.

pluc··on AI firm Anthropic to commit 5% of shares to fund for 'public good'
95% of shares to destroy society and humanity and 5% of shares to save it

sounds about right

Given how the USA treats its allies this might be a good thing for Ukraine.

There is no step 2

pluc··on Ask HN: Microsoft addressing more than 1000 Vulnerabilities
Yes
pluc··on If you don't run your own LLM proxy, how do you know whats going on?
It's LLM, of course they don't know what's going on.
pluc··on Anthropic's proposed AI safety bill only kicks in if 50 deaths or $1B in damages
Who's keeping score? Also define "death". If a non-alive person has social media, a blog, a diary, meeting recordings, emails - we'll make it so they never left. Hell, we'll partner with Elon and Mark and a make it a deactivation hook.
pluc··on Ask HN: How to speed up code-reviews?
As someone who's been there for the last few years, there's no fighting it anymore. People will need to come to their conclusion on their own - and they're fighting a trillion dollar hype machine and everyone above middle management and a good percentage of those below.
pluc··on Ask HN: How to speed up code-reviews?
I agree that it's a terrible idea, but here we are.
pluc··on The One Question I Can't Stand at Restaurants ("What's your phone number?")
Arguably. SimpleLogin is an integration with Proton, not a Proton feature. Fastmail integrates its feature with 1Password and Bitwarden without the need for additional add-ons, I don't know how SimpleLogin works but it feels more akin to Mozilla Relay and whatever else exists out there to create ephemeral addresses - but ultimately the feature integration might lead to the same use case.
pluc··on Ask HN: How to speed up code-reviews?
Go all in on AI, stop worrying about quality. When shit breaks, spin a replica and have an agent look at the logs and figure it out while hoping the replica restores service. It might sound counter-intuitive, but you know who's doing it? Your competition.

It's cheaper to create than it is to understand, so if you have no understanding in your SDLC, you can't expect to have it on incidents.

pluc··on The One Question I Can't Stand at Restaurants ("What's your phone number?")
Fastmail (and I assume others) let you create "masked emails" (read: ephemeral aliases). You can do it with your own domain too. Couldn't live without it.

pluc··on Limoges Town Hall, Which Survived Two World Wars, Is Destroyed in France Riots
Fun fact

Limoges was so far from the WWI front line that when the Commander-in-Chief of the French Forces wanted to get rid of useless senior staff, he'd position them there. The town name became synonymous with dismissal - in English you fire someone, in French you limoge them.

pluc··on The One Question I Can't Stand at Restaurants ("What's your phone number?")
Fake name, fake number. The faker the better.

I'm John Hancock and you can reach me at 911

pluc··on Why is GitHub so bad at UI?
You can answer this question by asking another: Why is Microsoft so bad at UI?
pluc··on Ask HN: How do you deal with AI output of your boss?
First rule is - if you don't write it, don't expect me to read it. If you AI-write something, then let me get an AI to read it too.

The only solution I can think of is to get AI implemented upstream in the planning phases so that it results in specs for spec-driven development. Your boss will be able to directly contribute without bothering anyone, but he will also think developers are obsolete. You need to warn him about the dangers of vibe-coded shit, but either way there's no positive scenario these days.

pluc··on Real knowledge dont matter any more
What gets me is the "look what i built" and its three markdown files

Doubleplusungood.
pluc··on Ask HN: It's still worth to show own handmaded games to the public internet?
In the last week I saw Skate 3, Halo, Gran Turismo, basically any PS2 games, the entire Adobe Creative Suite - all running in the browser, all made by AI.

So how does a hand-built (read: no AI, or at least an original concept) compare to what's available and theoretically possible today? If people want a game, they're close to being a prompt away from being able to create and play it - so why would they want a game made by someone else?

Inversely, what is great about seeing a game made by someone else nowadays? It ain't the development because that will be entirely AI soon enough. Game concept? Visuals? I think we're about to reach saturation where everything we produce - that would be considered amazing just a few years ago - will no longer be special and therefore, wanted.

pluc··on Life After SEO
It's a shame we've already coined "AI poisoning" for what SEO should translate to in AI, it doesn't sell very well.

Sell, don't tell
