I'm probably going to be downvoted for this, but this makes this whole industry look like a bunch of snake oil salesmen and charlatans.

Looks like a dupe of https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48747772

> they were effective altruists who chose AI safety research as the most effective way to improve the world

This actually made me laugh, I’m sorry

I'd be really interested in the opposite, just for the sake of experimentation since that's what these projects mostly are. They all seem to be rewrites for the sake of "performance", because the cost is now lower bc of AI. I'd be interested to see something like a port of Quake III in Python or Kubernetes in Perl, even Rails in Python would be goofy and really fun to see

I’m probably going to be downvoted for this but this thread doesn’t really reflect well on the promises of Generative AI and particularly the constantly reiterated assurance that we’re on the verge of a new industrial Revolution.

This looks like a solution in search of a problem already solved by SQLite

I would be interested in hearing a plausible scenario of how a large scale voting machines hack could potentially happen

This looks super useful, but I was wondering if I'm the only one bothered by this recent trend of overloading completely unrelated operators (here the `/` operator) in the name of legibility.

I had an adjacent idea a few weeks ago, but centered more around the idea that it may be difficult for new open-source contributors to find appropriate issues to work on. Suggesting and allowing to discover interesting issues across multiple repositories would allow the prospective user to get a nice view of what interesting issues are available to make a first / second / third contribution to a project, and possibly to also track contributions / pull requests etc.

Seems to have been layoffs at Mozilla today

This is such a great, simple, almost obvious idea. This type of ideas is getting more and more rare, so it is great to see one popping here and there.

Granted, this article is 15 years old but it is interesting to find that the landscape seems not to have changed much. I was wondering how much domain logic a modern application should put at the database layer.

This is an interesting article. Native Apps deployment constraints seem so different than a typical web continuous deployment process.

As an aside, here's a look at Etsy's Continuous deployment process: https://www.slideshare.net/mrtazz/development-deployment-and...

Accounting breakdown for the 2017 election is not yet available, apparently. This page list accounting breakdown for the 2012 and 2007 presidential elections: http://www.cnccfp.fr/index.php?art=720

I also would be curious to know the production and operating costs for a website of this kind.
