Amazon's customer-facing software has always been quite terrible across the board IME, even before LLM coding. The Alexa app, for example, is awful

what? the richest person on earth was so addicted to twitter that he bought it

I've just been using this for years https://github.com/rupa/z

It is simple and does the job

>A) proactively keeping me healthy,

This will never happen and arguably should not be the *medical* system's problem. It is just not feasible

Work is performance art

what? I started school in the early 2000s, after no child left behind started, and definitely learned multiplication tables lol

>If I'm not experiencing any particular emotion in a given moment, am I concious?

Genuine question: How are you so sure whether you are experiencing an emotion or not? Are you a master of everything inside your own head?

And I am exactly the opposite - aside from my first job out of university 10 years ago I have gotten every job since through connections

Whether you like it or not you will look stupid to native speakers. It's a subconscious bias

The Neo is supposed to be the budget version. I think MacOS is a decent computing platform for some engineering and creative endeavors -- if one more college kid gets access to it for cheaper I say it's a positive

Japanese has a word for green now 緑 (midori). Traffic lights use the word for blue for historical reasons

I also live in Suginami! There's always a lot of kids running around together, especially after school, but that feels quite normal for anywhere in Japan, no?

Enforce stacked PRs, reject PRs over 500-1k LoC (I'd argue even lower, but it's a hard sell)

Did a coal miner write this comment?

I was very pissed off to find that my Youtube Premium didn't work when I visited Armenia. I was still paying for it, but ads played and I couldn't listen to videos in the background. WTF?

There's so much obvious evidence of manipulation on Wikipedia, it's insane that it doesn't come under more scrutiny. It's even worse on non-English Wikipedias

Is it this one? https://photos.paulstamatiou.com/new-zealand/coromandel-peni...

Is there anything out there that's even close to that OG GPT-3? It was the closest experience I've ever had to magic, and I miss it dearly

Really? I feel exactly the opposite, that as a species we are extremely primitive in that regard. We underinvest into social "technology." Systems of collaboration and alignment aren't widespread, and research into it isn't taken seriously

Don't get me wrong, what we have is working (so far? Political happenings around the world don't inspire confidence)

>I would never create a system that placed a negative on someone's entire life.

>There is always room for and chances to improve ones self.

Great, then here's an opportunity for you to improve: I need you to understand that any social system designed by humans will be flawed and miss a bunch of edge cases. Your intentions do not matter. Doing this will fuck up somebody's life.

I believe people (who are not deemed guilty of murder or something and imprisoned for life) have the right to start over, and so people have the right to lie. Having a lifelong number assigned to you is evil. This isn't solving any problems. I'm sorry you had bad roommates, but stop.

I'm a born and raised American: I'd give anything to relocate to Europe or Asia permanently (for healthcare access reasons). Currently working a remote job from the US and exploring my options internally and externally.

1) For sites I come back to for reference or frequent utility, I use my Chrome bookmarks bar heavily. I have it synced to my Google account in the cloud, and segmented across different Chrome profiles (work email account for work things, personal for personal things, etc).

- Bookmarks to tools I access really frequently (like AWS dashboard) are top-level, and I remove the "Name" of the bookmark so it appears as just an icon in the bookmarks bar. There's a few of these quick-access icons for any given Chrome Profile setup that I have. For work I have Okta, AWS, and a work Wiki via Notion. For personal I have Youtube, email, my seedbox, and Plex.

- Everything else is split into folders for interests, projects, teams at work, etc.

- For things like recipes and articles I will back them up via Waybackmachine and archive.ph and bookmark that instead of the original site

2) For a form of digital scrapbooking for my various interests, of things that are not quite websites (images, videos, quotes, scraps) I use are.na heavily. I want to stress that this is scrapbooking and not a "notes system" a la Obsidian or Notion.

This is not news -- Reddit has been very clearly astroturfed for years now

What does your dealflow look like? Do you usually trade smaller unusuals into larger ones or are you just flipping big-money unusuals? How do you get the deals?

>I've been dipping my toes into the JS ecosystem, and I keep bumping into the fact that using mentally cheap signals of quality (such as stars or DL counts) almost never indicates the quality of the thing itself. Winners seem to be randomly chosen, almost! The only way to assess is to read the code and try integrating it in.

I wish morep people understood the "Kardashian effect" as I like to call it -- the most popular thing is only most popular because it was already popular. I think in almost everything in my life and in every domain, #2 or #3 is better-suited (for my preferences and needs).

A year or two ago on HN I read a short blog post about omitting the word "best" from internet searches and being more specific in your criteria (e.g. "car with best resale value" instead of "best car"), and it has made my life and way of thinking a lot better

Anything you would have done differently in the past? You're describing me but two decades younger hahaha
