The punishment should be harsher than the crime. Stealing an apple might not be a "big problem", but it sets a precedent that taking someone else's property is acceptable under some circumstances -- say, the relative value of said object.

China would be a good guess.

«Uncivilised»

Compared to what? European and other western countries with significantly higher crime rates?

Safety comes at a cost.

Nobody needs to pay for any of that

Apple can't control non-Apple devices. They can only control their own. So this makes perfect sense.

Now colour the flag rainbow colored. Or maybe black, white, green, and red. Or maybe white and red.

Whose flag is blinding whom?

... they don't require code review by at least one other person before merging..?

If this is indicative of practices over at MS these days, it explains a lot.

Just give them more money, surely it'll get better.

It's increased in lockstep here on HN as well. It used to be that I came here for the comments, but more and more the comments are going the way of everywhere else: Inflammatory, polarising, and more and more botted (both automated and human bots) -- no proof, but I've been around the internet since the early 90's, I see the patterns.

I even get sucked into contributing at times, which is why that descent into trash _works_ so well. I hate it, and I visit HN less and less as a result.

Poe's law gets me again. It's getting really rough these days on HN, I have to admit... My bad. Seems the AI-Protectorate Flagging Brigade managed to parse the sarcasm though.

If it can't even point you to a real product on an existing website, why do you trust it for any other information..?

A single byte change in the input changes the output. The sentence "Please do this for me" and "Please, do this for me" can lead to completely distinct output.

Given this, you can't treat it as deterministic even with temp 0 and fixed seed and no memory.

Societies drive people to suicide in general. Families also do. I don't think the solution is to make the world a padded room.

We're struggling with the pollution levels from road dust now though. It's worse in most cities than it ever was with combustion engines. Yes there's lower Co2, but the dust and tire particles are actually more dangerous.

What about the increased pollution from road dust? In Norway this has led to higher pollution levels that are directly dangerous to people and animals than back when we were all combustion vehicles.

The heavier EV's are causing genuinely harmful particles simply by driving on the roads themselves.

We do and many of us prefer it that way. I’m not on any major social media because I personally consider it asocial — you can’t have that many actual friends or acquaintances. My «social media» is a handful of smaller discord servers and an irc channel, and an extensive webring of personal websites.

Maybe it's ok to create something that isn't for most people. That's how the internet started out. It's only gotten worse the more accessible it became to most people. Maybe it's a good thing to create a split based on capabilities and technical know-how.

This and a lot of similar HN comments, often by fresh accounts, just read like viral marketing. Not least because of the capitalisation.

Claude Code sure is great. Claud Code and my Codex reignited my passion for programming. Codex and Claude.

Ugh.

Let's not forget No Man's Sky here. Or Elite Dangerous' planet-scale procedural generation using solar system properties to fuel the deterministic but procedural generation of tectonic plates that again seed how a planet's surface is deterministically generated, even down to impact craters over millennia, for a universe of billions of consistent deterministically generated full-scale planets you can land on. Something you couldn't do without proc-gen because there's not enough disk space to store it.

They are with Hamas.

And yet I’m the one getting flagged.

This is Hamas' founding document and guiding principles: https://avalon.law.yale.edu/21st_century/hamas.asp

Stop spreading lies. Hamas government is not "almost boringly normal".

Ingsoc in anything but name

Now why do you think they’re not competitive? Think about this more than one layer.

How do people keep track of all these versions and releases of all these models and their pros/cons? Seems like a fulltime hobby to me. I'd rather just improve my own skills with all that time and energy

You're not contradicting me. Read it again.

Same as when the EU puts a ton of restrictions on farmers within the EU countries -- Co2, fertiliser requirements, etc. -- making food so expensive to produce many go out of business and the remainder become practically luxury food, and then countries just end up having to import food from countries outside the EU _without_ those restrictions, simply offloading the environmental burden on "some other countries somewhere".

It's a farse.

It only takes that to be a «nazi» sympathiser huh. And my comment flagged. You might need to go read up on what the nazis were like. I’m in Europe. We _really_ know what the nazis were like — they occupied my country. I live in a street named after resistance fighters who died fighting them. You’re extremely naive and disrespectful of the victims of the nazis.

They may be but that doesn’t make them wrong. I don’t keep track of what everyone on any “side” tall about and how many percentages do what. That’s noise. The arguments are valid regardless of who says them.

Because I prefer online conversations to work like IRL ones: Ephemeral. Sure each individual might keep their own log if they want but the server itself doesn’t and setting aside all the issues with modern datasets being used for training all sorts of algorithms, just the concept of stepping into a digital room without all the baggage of the last twenty hours of conversation is _mentally refreshing_. It also changes people’s behaviour for the better IME.
