Well, at least they were honest I suppose

Slop

2020 called, it wants its HN comment back

This seems like cope to me.

Humans have a bias towards assuming that problems have solutions. Mathematicians probably more than average.

This talk is predicated on the theory that the problem of "maintaining the relevance of humans in mathematics" is tractable. Not sure I agree

gimmick

Not sure I agree with this. It's often true in SF, but that is largely an affectation, people imitating people like Peter Thiel etc. But not as true elsewhere

Has any research been done to try and determine the percentage of the population that are able to detect obvious LLM-generated text?

(1) complexity

(2) performance

Both reading and writing are necessary, but writing alone is not sufficient.

Self-aggrandisement

Even LinkedIn slop isn't as bad as this

Sounds like you're being highly unreasonable and childish to me

Gell-Mann Amnesia: the blog post

Nothing. I get no satisfaction out of side projects nowadays

Ugh, AI slop writing.

"cooper" derives from the verb "coop", which likely derives from Latin "cūpa", from which we get the word "cup".

What's the point in doing things like this if you just get Claude to do it?

Compliance with the absurd and draconian OSA

You're probably thinking of unlisted, not private.

I feel like things have become so much more cynical in the last 5 years, in this regard.

I feel like part of it is the "over-systemization" of promos. I see the logic behind it to some extent - if there's a system, it's "fairer"/"more democratic". But, then we end up with ridiculous gamified promo systems.

If you're going to fork out 40k, why not get an actual rack rather than fashioning one yourself out of plywood...

> doing ALMOST what I asked it to do, but just not quite

This is my exact experience. LLMs get 95% of the way to my personal quality bar, and for simple tasks 100% of the way.

More complex things, no. This means that, in practice, I end up having to understand the code pretty much as much deeply as I would anyway, without agents.

So, essentially, my experience is that it's automated away the easy bits, but left the hard bits, so all of my time is spent doing the hard bits, which is mentally exhausting.

Maybe Fable would be good enough to get to 100% of my quality bar on more complex tasks, but I never got chance to try it.

Sure, it can see obvious stuff in images, but as far as I'm aware it is not designed for (or tested on) performing the kind microscopic analysis that radiology involves

Not sure I would put much faith in the stats of this clearly vibecoded slopsite

It kinda makes sense, given the sheer magnitude of money on the line.

There was once a time when I'd see a page like this and think "wow, must be a great project with such a polished website".

Now, it's just a neutral or perhaps even very slightly negative signal (especially the em-dash in the very first line of the page).

Anyone able to tell me if this is a project actually worth paying attention to, or just another raindrop in the current monsoon of slop?

You have your answer

> Shared-memory threads for JavaScriptCore. new Thread(fn) runs fn on another thread, in the same heap, with the same objects. No structured clone, no message passing, no SharedArrayBuffer-only escape hatch. You share an object by sharing the object.

If you can't even be bothered to write a non-slop PR description, it doesn't bode particularly well for the content of the PR itself...
