News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

uncivilized

This comment being at the top just goes to show how the HN crowd is no different than any other on social media. Bro didn’t care to even read the article.

You don’t really understand how heavy devices are unless you have something to compare to.
Mostly 2025 and before means mostly 2025 and before…
You read the paper, saw that the stated collection dates ranged from January 2021 to March 2026, and are claiming the authors are lying?
Gotta love the HN armchair experts
HN is what you get when you mix tech and autism.
You must be new here. When has a Hacker News ever commented anything related to the article itself? Just be gracious that the top comment isn’t a dear diary comment that so frequently appears.
Re:How our vibe coded website looks like a designer made it on Tuesday September 29, 2026 @07:10PM (#49902090)
Yes, if the designer was named Claude or Astra, then it does indeed look like that designer created it.

Very few HN comments are high quality
Re:Sonnet 5.5 on Monday September 28, 2026 @05:30PM (#49884673)
Karma farming by parent commenter and HNers’ tendency to upvote low quality content (not dissimilar to other social media networks)
I imagine 99% of viewers have never seen Dario speak either.

Maybe it’s you who thinks most “decent” engineers aren’t meat proxies?
Re:GPT-6 Sol and Luna on Tuesday September 22, 2026 @05:10PM (#49808161)
We’re all gonna be meat proxies
Re:Why I'm still bearish on LLMs after navier-stokes on Tuesday September 15, 2026 @08:56PM (#49720891)
HN is no different than Reddit, or any social media for that matter, in that commenters pretend to read articles.
Did you read the article? The card stops play and can be used to end the match if abuse continues.
Re:I wanna live an NPC life on Thursday September 03, 2026 @10:48AM (#49550642)
Great. I couldn’t care less. Was just clarifying the comment in case the commenter wasn’t a native English speaker. Reply to them not me.

Parent commenter means “we” as in humans. Their comment is not meant to speak for others’ individual preferences.
Re:Hacking IKEA Furniture on Sunday August 30, 2026 @01:59PM (#49501092)
In typical HN fashion, the blog post is a run of the mill “hack” and instead of commenting on the article, a Hacker News instead word vomits their favorite IKEA furniture.
Good thing your ancestors did not think like that!
Re:Uefa pursuing criminal legal action against Infantino on Thursday August 27, 2026 @10:52PM (#49473801)
Sure. Feel free to repost this comment on 90% of HN submissions
Re:Uefa pursuing criminal legal action against Infantino on Thursday August 27, 2026 @12:51PM (#49467729)
Good question given that a Hacker News probably couldn’t run 3 meters on the pitch without needing a water break.
Re:Uefa pursuing criminal legal action against Infantino on Thursday August 27, 2026 @12:47PM (#49467674)
At least you signed off your comment declaring your naïveté.

This money will only go into Infantino and friends’ pockets. Not an ounce of it would ever touch youth programs.

Re:Dolly Parton has died on Tuesday August 25, 2026 @08:43PM (#49442773)
This comment makes it seem like you really wanted to attack Miley rather than discuss Dolly’s health.
Re:Dolly Parton has died on Tuesday August 25, 2026 @06:41PM (#49441677)
Calling Swift middle class and that they were possibly paycheck to paycheck is laughable.

Her father had a huge role to play in her success with his business deals and would largely be considered upper middle class if not higher. If anything, Taylor’s story reinforces the idea that families with wealth offer easier paths in life for their children.

Re:How AI text watermarking works on Thursday August 13, 2026 @09:10PM (#49293665)
One thing you can try is to write it by hand without an LLM! That way there will be no watermark.
Well your comment had nothing to do with what you’ve written now.

There’s a reason why it’s flagged now.

Re:AI is removing the middle class of software engineering on Wednesday August 12, 2026 @12:28PM (#49274983)
It’s just the typical BS where a Hacker News wants to feel smarter than they are
Sad state that of affairs when comments like this appear and have affirmative replies. Shows how socially unaware and one-dimensional a Hacker News is.
Re:Why is Everyone in Tech so sad? on Monday August 10, 2026 @07:39PM (#49251372)
OP mentioned real world impact, not me. Are you saying negative real world impact is acceptable?
Re:How Claude marks AI-generated content on Monday August 10, 2026 @06:07PM (#49250477)
As long as they’re in the EU.
