That this link is actually all AI but nobody noticed.

Journalism is almost dead. And if where it’s not it’s more of a summary of what happened rather than deep investigations. But only a small percentage of the population care about deep investigations anyway.

Nobody is talking about how they seem to be written the same way?? They even use the same phrase: "I was chocked and embarrassed" on many of them.

What are we reading here? It looks like AI generated.

HN is going to be a weird place to be between people loving AI and the loss of loving tech. I don’t remember last time I watched a good tech dev video. At least the video game industry is a little bit shielded from this but soon it will be the same when we see the speed AI is advancing.

No more joy crafting things as a dev…!

I don’t get your comment for WeWork. Is the current estate industry any better with how dry their industry is? Compared to a company caring enough to do research of this type? Tell me a single real estate giant that has even just 5 guys working in R&D of this type and not money related projects…

We can’t blame them when they are looking to squeeze more profits and at the same time blame the ones who try to do things different.

Well if possible you want an AI that understand the spirit of what you are asking for and will add all the missing stuff, instead of an AI that just want to hack its way to the result. Kinda what Fable brought to the table. For instance as a simple example I ask it to change the text that shows the email of the user by his name and Fable did all the code in case there is the family name missing etc. That this last part you want an AI to do. Helping you to build the system with you and not gaming what you ask for for reward.

I miss these times!

Why limit? This is a news website where users judge if something is newsworthy by upvoting it. If the community decides it’s newsworthy it’s newsworthy. Maybe not for you but at least enough people to make it visible in front page. Unless you have strong arguments, like topics creating death threats or people doxing, there is no reason whatsoever to censure any news because you personally doesn’t care or don’t like it and prevent others from accessing it.

“ No other human activity poses this level of danger.” Yet. But it may be and very soon.

It would have been funny a year ago but now I have no issues of that sort or even for more complex tasks

People really believe in this AGI marketing?

No rule makers. Players are not the one making the rules of a game. They just play it.

It’s not the players we should hate but the ones who make the rules of the game. Specifically not the ones who make the rules for the greater good but for themselves.

I would too and I have declined jobs everywhere they used their tech and it was not because they had to. And even then, unless it’s like Google and such I am very reluctant.

No thanks!

Someone got a lot of those kickbacks…

I don’t think it’s fair to say this when we have been chanting how software is eating the world, or how much we love to disrupt markets, that we won’t create mass unemployments with our technology but that "people will transition elsewhere like we always saw", etc etc.. It’s our turn to have our jobs disrupted and now we don’t like it?

I still have no idea if they really want to make Fable usable in a plan in the future or not. They said it's their goal but here they still double down that it will be out of plans, period.

Or exactly as planned.

I actually had a lot of problems with software cult followers of influencer gurus like ThePrimeagen, Lex Fridman, Theo, etc... Those are so worst. You can't resonate with them.

UE 5 doesn’t come with a scripting language even though there is blueprints which a node editor easy enough to be used by non dev. Studios like embark (The Finals, ARC Raiders) have been successful integrated AngelScript in UE 5 and use it in these games. UE 6 will see the appearance of Verse: the scripting language used for Fortnite (and the end of blueprint at some point). At first I was sad to see yet another language but it is worth looking at the doc to see why and how it makes a lot of sense.

It’s only a question of time. I think right now 60% of AI paper published is from China. They are already the bests at cost optimization

I wonder if they are not just gonna wait that GPT-5.6 is released before doing any move.

I was planning on using it all until today so I burned quite a lot yesterday.

You unplug yourself from media and social media. And maybe open the news paper of your town if you want to spice up your life. The rest you will probably hear all about it anyway from families or colleagues if it’s something big. We are in the era of over connections. We need to know how to unplug. It doesn’t have to be as extreme as u said but if someone is as much as affected like this, this person definitely needs a huge break.

For ICE it’s kinda a big stretch can we agree? And in this case the person does have control. This person does have agency over the issue and should regularize their situation as soon as possible.

It’s more a question of knowing when to unplug yourself on things that are affecting you but that you cannot control. From government news to something bad happening miles from you. These news can affect you but you have no control over the situation. Not doing so is actually one way to get depression.

I would have like to see the map of cities that matches this 3-30-300 rule.

I agree for the comparison.

Now for Rust I don’t think it is going to change a lot. Because it is based on ML, it has the best foundations and all features are known. The question is more how much Haskell vs script/imperative do you want your language to be, and what’s the purpose of the language rather than we had the wrong paradigm and found a new better one. For Rust 99% of its features are known and most are already implemented.

Maybe things around the borrow checker, and await, but beyond that nothing as much as what C++ saw in its history. Even more when for instance you see the article from the guy doing Gleam where traits (impl) are not necessary, all you need is data and function to have the same functionality. Or how ML have been the main factor to most new languages or new features to existing languages.

The future is ML, with languages dedicated to specific use cases and niches. And also ML languages easily readable by AI.

As of today they can't. You have to tell them what the new API looks like, which new classes they have to create and describe them in detail, etc... You have new projects that try to add good practices in the prompt [0] or audit your code once in a while [1] but it's not enough.

Right now they can be autonomous to finding bugs and inconsistencies. But not architecture or even just creating a long enough PR without any guidance and feedback.

For sure this have been greenlighted all the way up to CEO so…

Fuzzing can help with that. But it’s not only applicable to Rust.

For Actix web he was using “unsafe” to increase performance. That doesn’t mean the code written was unsafe… The Rust community was turning to a cult on this topic when perfectly experienced C++ can write code would need the unsafe in Rust when they perfectly know the code isn’t. It’s good for the community to push people to avoid to use unsafe but not to that extend of drama and bullying…
