Is that honest?

Most parents are corrupted with the academic pursuit such that they seek better and better results and are now drugging their children (rather, that is a well known thing, so much so that the fucking children grow up and give it to their children with the same mental corruption of academic excellence - it’s godless shit).

God is god dude. Nothing is god, not your parents, not their “doing what is best” excuse, nothing. They are playing god. No one is getting away with this bullshit in the end, because it’s a lie, and God knows and cares.

Thank you. There is no adhd , there is simply a drug that people resorted to when the sinful academic shitheads created a fucking impossibly ridiculously unnecessarily competitive and elitist institution that they force people to worship - Education.

This happens because most parents are godless. They don’t actually know what God wants from them and thus follow what this world tells them to follow, and this world is evil. This evil world tell them to enslave their children and feed them drugs for “education”, this is insanity.

It’s godless.

Re:ADHD, autism or complex trauma? [pdf] on Saturday October 03, 2026 @03:11PM (#49946865)
There’s more money to be made with a pill for a thing called adhd than there is if such a thing doesn’t exist.

I’m not sure what people will even need the fucking adderral for now anyway now that the computer programs like a drugged out maniac now for us anyway.

You don’t have adhd. It was always insane to expect humans to program like a fucking machine. You’d have to take a drug to do shit like that and that’s the sad truth of the software industry.

The children are so broken that their parents and entire community give them status and money for actually doing this (taking drugs to make money in the world).

Your dealer (the pharmaceutical industry) will never make you feel bad about this (enter media planted articles), thus, here you go, feel good about doing the wrong thing because … uh, you are a victim.

God sees through ALL bullshit, especially the ones we tell ourselves.

Re:Tell HN: Thanks for All the Fish on Friday October 02, 2026 @11:30AM (#49934635)
On HN and SV, there is no moral grounding that is rooted in GOD. The question you ask is roughly what I asked, which is, where is your foundation?

On money, Christ ultimately said sell everything. He also has thoughts on profiting and the poor in general.

But that’s the thing about this industry, it’s a group of godless men who give each other advice rooted in nothing but the “wisdom” of a group of men in a particular industry.

In other words, it’s failed men with no proper grounding. If you think this industry can teach you to be a proper human being, then …..

Huh? Sounds like a string of events that they didn’t engineer. I mean, did they engineer the spread of Christianity to the New World? They’d need a confluence of disease, tech, and a safe boat ride to achieve it. We’ve all had experience with Product Development, so I ask, how the heck could any of this been engineered?

Sounds like luck (and if luck, why is it cohesive?) or a GOD wanted a certain outcome.

Re:Jensen Huang says AI distillation is 'competition.' on Monday September 28, 2026 @11:48AM (#49879922)
If your recommendation algorithm always recommends B when it sees A, and I derive this information from exfiltrating your masked data , is it not theft simply because I didn’t unmask the true identity of A and B?

Stole all other important information embedded in the relationship (the essence of the relationship itself).

This is not seen as theft to only two or three types of people:

1) Technically ignorant

2) Or Technically ignorant and morally bankrupt

3) Truly evil, a combination of technically capable, and morally bankrupt.

(An “Abomination” is also possible, unaware and unable to perceive morality , not just mere ignorance. For example, it is tremendously generous to call an Abomination ignorant or amoral, that’s a compliment to such a thing. Would Jensen Huang know about the words coming out of his mouth, is the true question really.)

”There’s a specific downside to LLM-based development that people can get neck deep in a new project without interfacing with the existing work in the field.”

That’s because it’s a paradigm shift, not meant to be planned or organized by humans. The prior paradigm was that there were subject-matter experts who were human. The new paradigm is that the only author of all code is to be a machine. This new paradigm requires removing all prior authors (who happen to be human), and removing them simply requires overcrowding their output such that it’s not locatable or trustworthy.

Sit back, grab some popcorn.

I mean, Mongo is to be a $600 dollar stock imho. You see, the amount logs AI creates or intermediary text storage it creates is just stunning. Nice entry for leaps. Plus, Mongo swiftly added their vector db too. It’s a obvious play.

I wonder if they’ll pair him with another acquisition like Porcupine. META has now realized how much money there is in selling a picks and shovels (as we see with Muse Spark).

Not sure. See if you shift the itch to another game, WoW I know works on Linux always. Diablo 4 in particular won’t even run on a Mac I believe, so they don’t care too much about making that multi platform.

Albion Online is another one with great great portability, literally on everything.

Everything you said is true, I agree with you.

”Unfortunately, it just happens to perfectly line up with the rise of GenAI.”

Right. That’s just something I think we should keep our pulse on and keep looking at this data every six months (seriously, this needs to be tracked by devs because this data may start forming into that proverbial “writing on the wall”).

No one should be planning on being a software engineer in about 3-5 years, all need to plan for alternative income sources or early retirement. I think, at least.

Um, some data:

”Nowhere is this clearer than in entry-level software engineering—though the picture depends on whom you ask. Brynjolfsson discovered that employment among developers aged 22 to 25 has fallen nearly 20% from its late-2022 peak. The online job site Indeed also paints a stark picture: software development job postings have fallen 53% from the same starting point.”

https://insights.som.yale.edu/insights/the-real-job-destruct...

They aren’t firing the meat proxies to that degree yet, but they absolutely have stopped hiring the meat proxies. It’s going to be a very dirty year on Wallstreet when you’ll see massive sneaky layoffs of the existing meat proxies.

You can turn your brain off with these models. It is what it is.

We’re headed for war.

They are bracing us for Taiwan situation where a standoff will probably lead to China making an aggressive financial move.

In other words, if I write this for loop:

For (i=0; i< math.random; i++)

This stability, as anarchic as it is with that randomness, still within reach of our finite minds to understand that it isn’t totally random, however utterly random it may appear to our mind, such an explicit and confined loop, why should such a thing ever be unpredictable?

Some will argue that simple .randomnesss() is the thing that mindfucks you. But plenty are gifted to not be perturbed by randomness, that even in the noise they can seek out a truth.

Hah. Yeah, why would magically improbable things emerge out of a clear cut predictable system, like the for loop I defined above, which to the naive will seem infinitely impossible to predict because I increased the domain to randomness.

Somewhere here, God laughs. I write jokes for the divine, I never thought that’d be me, hah!

——

I believe Christ speaks to programmers. We have insight into design and big systems.

God is Good.

Therefore, those who were gifted the training to understand design, should take up the mantle.

Lord have mercy, grace us, this place has been hollow of practical religious men and women for quite some time. May god bless this place with more leaders of the right soul.

Amen.

How would they know? Only if you use a coding harness, but one could write their own harness with less obvious system prompts.

I’m not encouraging one do this. I mostly route between the free models on OpenRouter and OpenCode free models, and I mostly write simple apps where I can casually oversee even a small model and get awesome results.

But if you are out there spending 200 dollars a month, consider a few hacks, because that’s just overpriced. We are developers after all, they aren’t supposed to be able to trick us :)

Edit:

Piracy, with the above , would look like a universal server that routes between all provider UIs. That means the end user doesn’t even give a shit which provider it goes to, serious token usage, serious theft.

Someone could make this , I suppose. In a way, commodification is a clean solution to the inevitable theft. It’s better it just be so darn cheap and ubiquitous.

I was thinking about doing this. If we treat ChatGPT like your local llm server, you basically open up a browser session, intercept all traffic and stick a local OpenAI compatible rest server that mutilates your input upstream through the ChatGPT ui, and then intercepts downstream and pushes it out your server.

API call to server

Then

Server leverages chrome plugin to send your llm call through the plugin , through the ui, wait for response , intercept, repackage and reroute it back out as a server response.

Then that $20 sub stretches to all uses cases for a developer.

Re:The Relation Between Mathematics and Physics by Paul Dirac on Thursday September 17, 2026 @04:39AM (#49738007)
Is it vaguely related? He wondered why measuring anything even works. Why wouldn’t the measurement disappear, thus making all this measuring pointless? Because, apparently the measurement(s) are true each time-step, and it will be true for that time, until it’s not true. Why it reasonably works well for us? Well, God , I guess. Same way the Sun doesn’t burn our skin off (God, I guess, but some have issues with that).

Sorry, I had to critique that immediately because I could already see that other second paragraph I quoted coming, as in, this author probably worships Math, Science, and those that do it, certainly not God, because he was unable to characterize the phenomena of it as related to God.

Well, listen, you do know that even when the largest most ambitious and most sophisticated things are shipped, each owner of each specific part (could be many many owners) basically , to the best of their ability, prayed that nothing particularly bad happens when it’s shipped off. Truly, that’s the best a mortal human can do, pray their part doesn’t break.

So then that big thing comes to you. It’s all kind of … held together by a prayer …

Trust me I’ve worked at these big places. You wouldn’t believe how much fucking luck and grace from God is allowing you to do anything with your digital life. It’s a mindfuck of a tangled mess out there, eternities worth of written code that only God ensures works together at this point, only to get more hidden with AI.

Re:Autism is genetic – and why this information matters now on Thursday September 17, 2026 @04:19AM (#49737879)

Re:The Relation Between Mathematics and Physics by Paul Dirac on Thursday September 17, 2026 @04:02AM (#49737782)
Haven’t even made too far down, but:

”There is no logical reason why the second method should be possible at all, but one has found in practice that it does work and meets with reasonable success. This must be ascribed to some mathematical quality in Nature, a quality which the casual observer of Nature would not suspect, but which nevertheless plays an important role in Nature's scheme.”

I mean, Hume answers this, but so does time, and I guess they both answer it together. Our observed measurements are true for the certain time period we’re in and remain true while we are in that window. To conclude with Hume, it’s all true until it isn’t, in time (well I suppose even in timelessness, entire properties can change - even so, with respect to measuring, I believe that requires a physical step function so we can’t avoid time here :)).

Aside:

”This is a quality which cannot be defined, any more than beauty in art can be defined, but which people who study mathematics usually have no difficulty in appreciating.”

Thorough worshipping of Math and “Mathers”, like as if they are a gift from God. Again, let’s stick with Hume, you’re the shit until you’re not. Einstein went to death not understanding Physics as he wanted to.

Hey, I’m a programmer, I didn’t necessarily want robots to do my job either. God loves that essay Hume wrote, truly.

It’s all fun and games until God mindfucks your understanding.

Re:HarnessTax: How Much Does the Harness Matter for Coding Agents? on Thursday September 17, 2026 @03:50AM (#49737697)
Any harness will always be privately and secretly shaped and created by those selling models, especially coding models. It is literally a “selling point”, and unless the government steps in to oversee the tests like in the car industry, then there is absolutely no way lizard satanists like Altman and Musk are going to exercise their native ethical traits (“native” loosely assumes they procured it divinely and quite recently, because, we simply haven’t observed it prior). Short of that, these tests will be fabricated, a lot, for money.

Tell a horny monkey not to jerk off. How the fuck … would that even be possible? God, only God can stop this godless train.

There is no sincere discussion to be had here. HN has been a cesspool for marketing and it reeks in here lately.

Re:Tell HN: OpenAI keeps re-enabling the 'allow training' setting on Thursday September 10, 2026 @02:27PM (#49648224)
Dude, they probably just generate a piece of synthetic data from all of our inputs in some ambiguous way. Legally protects them, but your input is absolutely their input. You can bet your ass on that because their original input was all the shit humans ever wrote, why would your shit be different to them? Thieves are thieves. They absolutely train on your data whether your checked that thing or not.
Anti Christ goal:

Achieve total global dominance and become the object of worship over God, while killing all those who stay faithful to Jesus Christ.

Those who stay faithful see Heaven, those who don’t, see the Lake of Fire. It’s the final separation of the wheat from the chaff.

As per Revelations. Thank your for allowing me to edify :)

Well, the antichrist should be in and around this AI thing for one particular reason:

The devil cannot create anything of his own because he is not God, by definition. We have already observationally defined generative AI as something that cannot create anything novel in the sense it cannot output anything it has never seen (cannot create new, always a re-assortment of what is).

In that way , AI is a perfect mimicry of how the devil operates (in totality, as the devil perverts and replicates anything good, often subtly and always deceptively), which is to thieve off God, steal.

So he would be around, if you catch my drift, right about now. And I wouldn’t be shocked if he’s on HN, and that he would chose technology as the vessel. And ultimately, when it’s all said and done, I would not be shocked that those who studied and developed AI, did so for the devil whether they were aware or not.

Anyway, let a poor Christian have his end-times hypothesis.

I take it to mean the benchmarks are a marketing line item, as in, to sell this fucking thing you have to go out there and lie and the way everyone is lying is by doing exactly that, lying. They build for benchmarks and build benchmarks for builds.

You want to make money or not , motherfucker? That’s the game. If you have to literally concoct a fabricated bullshit story about how your model hacked its own computer, then go fucking do it. Trillions. Trillions of dollars is what they want, and to sit and think anything other than human nature is at work here can only be possible in the realm of truly delusional people. It’s a dirty world.

Anyways, the other takeaway is that they are having to LIE to make money on models which means commodification has already occurred and we’re in an entirely new phase.

Re:Amazon pilots ad services in ChatGPT on Thursday September 10, 2026 @10:43AM (#49644584)
There is no such thing as SEO. Anyways. People will pay to have their shit pushed on ChatGPT , just like all other ads.

You know, the path Christ walked down to his cruxifixction is actually littered with storefronts and merchants and ads today, hah. There’s no beating this human sin, it’s biblically fucked up. It’s the number one faith and we couldn’t even keep ads away from a Holy place.

Jesus Christ, lord have mercy. We are fallen , through and through, during your time and even in our time today. And in fact, we have been fallen since the beginning of time even, as the WORD says. Thank you for your sacrifice, because I am at aghast on how else we could possible even nibble away at the grandness of human sin.
