News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

bn-l

I really think this is part of an underhanded promotion campaign. I think they’re trying to do SEO by posting on hackernews with the goal to create buzz like this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Futurology/comments/1qzajj1/the_bac...

So plan is to create controversy and get attention.

Is this a marketing campaign by openai? I don’t believe these people are real. All the posts are ai generated
I try to boycott them as much as possible. I thought the boycott nestle thing was just a weird Reddit thing until actually reading about this company. It’s pretty sickening.

That is absolutely scummy.

Codex writes disgusting shit code.

Right. You can launder quantization that way by muddying the waters of discourse about the model.

I don’t know. My gut feeling is it seems to help.

I hope the author sees this:

You have to test inter-day variation. Many have noticed a sudden drop off at certain times.

I wish I could invest in this company. Really. This is the most exciting revenue opportunity I’ve seen during this recent AI hype cycle.
There’s no way they’re using react in windows shell. Tell me they’re not.
You know better than jblow to call him crazy? I definitely don’t.
He wants more “diffusion”. Slopya says “diffusion” so you better “diffusion”. They need AI…

DIFFUSION

Exactly right and by the time you get that theory back could you have just it all yourself?
I’m genuinely wondering if they’re using llms to code windows. Is that likely?

What a blast from the past (for me at least). When I used this 5 or so years ago (17 years ago) it was extremely effective.
Anthropic is the worst ai company.

Absolutely disgusting behavior pirating all those books. The founder spreading fear to hype up his business. The likely relentless shilling campaigns all over social media. Very likely lying about quantizing selectively.

Shalom!

You don’t think it was the genocide, starvation and mass murder of over 70,000 civilians in carpet bombings. Or the mass torture and rape?

Israel is absolutely drowning in blood and human misery. It gobbles it up. It relishes it. There’s really no need to manufacture outrage.

So who?
30. Billion. Dollars.

Man

The greatest grift of all time.

I don’t mean the tech itself—-which is kind of useful. I mean the 99% of the value inflation of a kind of useful tool (if you know what you’re doing).

It’s interesting that they don’t even know this
Why not just use a hook on reads?

This is such bizarre sick talk. Only in the west do we suffer this. It’s really weird and a holdover from a really strange time in the 60-70s.

How is it that they have so much money And yet can’t hire developers. Something must be unbelievably rotten at the core of the company.
The code it produces (svelte, typescript, python) is usually riddled with small errors , deprecated usage, reimplementation, and terrible segmentation. This is opus 4.5. Literally every single time if I did not review it carefully and edit it thoroughly it would be a mountain of extremely hard to debug tech debt. It’s a toss up if it’s actual faster to be honest. I think the phenomenon of people expressing their hopes of the technology as if they were the current reality is an extremely interesting phenomenon.

So crazy how all of this is highly probably due to the Epstein files. Has anything like this ever happened in history?
This band really appealed to gen x and early millennial for some reason.
Does it have the keyboard split on either side like the Nokia engage?

Make sure to read about BPA and don’t let small children anywhere near it. Also try not to breath in too much close to it when printing.
