Re:Show HN: Qwen3-4B with the AI writing tics trained out on Monday October 19, 2026 @10:01AM (#50152633)
It's definitely a slight improvement, but it is still rather obvious that the output is AI-written :(
Wouldn't the dropper get executed once tests are run within CI though?
Re:How is the Bun Rewrite in Rust going? on Monday July 27, 2026 @05:52PM (#49075958)
Thanks for answering!

I suppose my second question would be how much Bun spends on CI per month atm - I'd imagine that robobun would have ramped up the bill a fair bit

How come Bun uses Buildkite instead of self-hosting the CI infra?

What's wrong with Starling/Monzo?
Re:OnePlus halts operations in USA and Europe on Thursday July 16, 2026 @07:17AM (#48932981)
If I had to guess, it's because the phone market is largely dominated by Apple and Samsung, and so it'd be/has been very hard for OnePlus to actually sell their phones there.

I've been using pgdog (https://github.com/pgdogdev/pgdog) and it has worked really well for my needs!
Re:Hanami 3.0: In Full Bloom on Wednesday July 01, 2026 @06:35PM (#48754048)
Big congrats on the release!

I have been using Rails 8 for the past few months on a work project, but the Hanakai ecosystem looks really, really interesting.

My one question would be whether or not Hanakai supports Inertia or Svelte views - we've been moving away from ERB recently, which has made it much easier to write interactive code due to the ecosystem, and I'd rather not throw that DX away!

The problem with these benchmarks is that the Chinese models tend to be incredible on paper, and absolutely terrible in practice :/

> In the UK you get thrown in prison for making a slightly unfriendly tweet.

Do you? The closest thing I can think about is how someone was jailed for encouraging arson attacks on asylum hotels. I'd be extremely surprised if the US had zero cases of somebody receiving a police visit after threatening to kill the President or bomb a school or something...

(FWIW I do think the UK needs stronger free speech protections, but saying that you'll be immediately jailed for writing unfriendly tweets is a huge stretch)

Would be more impressive if the safeguards weren't so trigger-happy!

It's interesting how every time there's a layoff, the blog post always has a title like "Preparing for what's next" or "An update on our workforce" or "Getting ready for the agentic era"!
Probably a good idea in all honesty. xAI is a deeply unserious lab
