That seems to indicate the market is more confident in walmart's earnings than nvidia's.
You could try a browser extension that just filters all terms like LLM, AI, agent, agentic and removes those posts. Or better yet, call back to a certain classic and replace those words with "butt" and keep them in.…
What makes another couple big steps like that inevitable in a short time frame? Before the recent floodgates cracked open, AI research made only slow incremental progress for decades. Why couldn't we already be back…
Funny, I put parachutes on my airplanes in kerbal space program (as a safety feature) but never considered what the real-life analogue to that would be. Turns out it's very similar!
Fair point. Humans experience reality and use words to reflect that. LLMs only have the words. And it's an open question how much of a limitation that is to understanding.
I like this anecdote because it gets at how words to an LLM have no connection to their real concepts. To an LLM, words are simply numbers arranged in a likely pattern.
I think one could make a hypothetical case that working at a cigarette company in 2026 is a more morally justifiable position than working at meta in 2026, because cigarettes as they're regulated today generally only…
Flipping the question like this was my instinct as well. I think the passion tax and supply and demand are definitely factors, but the real reason for the gap is that big tech has gotten increasingly exploitative and…
They're all pretty high margin though. I think flipping the question like this gets at the heart of the true answer. The question is not why video game pay has lagged, but why tech pay has jumped ahead.
I like classes for meeting new people for a few reasons. First, there's a structure around the activity which doesn't force you interact all the time. Second, you're not entering an established group as the one new…
The highly random and somewhat convoluted mechanisms remind me of something like character creation in the rpg classic traveller. You do have a little choice there (unlike here), but I think the same appeal is present…
I was reflecting the other day how discovering things online felt like being in on a secret. You had to just know about a chat room or BBS or website. Each one was like discovering a secret. Now it's the opposite,…
I have a feeling "slop" is the new "spam" (etymologically) -- it could be with us for decades.
I see it as more iterative than revolutionary. I remember before LLMs, someone on HN made a bot to program automatically by pulling the top rated answers from stackoverflow. To me agentic coding just feels like the next…
Yes, that's a good point. It doesn't need to cross the 20% to trigger a larger weighting -- it will smoothly increase at a 5:1 ratio below that.
Not sure what you mean, can you help me understand? Do you mean if free float goes from 5% to 100%, and weighting goes from 25% to 100%, it's more "extra supply" than "extra demand"? That's a good point I hadn't…
I'm not so sure the silent majority is positive on AI, I think the opposite is more likely. Let's not forget that national poll where it was less popular than ICE -- I think it was 26% positive vs 46% negative. My view…
That's true for the S&P but not nasdaq, nasdaq is market cap weighted. There used to be a limit that the available float couldn't go below something like 20%. (This is because 5% float available but 100% market cap…
My memory growing up is that making your own C library was basically an inevitable rite of passage for any aspiring programmer.
In hindsight it maybe should have also been obvious from the language alone. "Richmond Hill" feels a bit like saying "Rich Hill Hill" which is basically like saying "Wealthy Desirable Area."
If meat was involved, the cooking time may have been unsafe if other precautions weren't taken by the cook (like checking the internal temperature).
I'll admit that's better than I expected, but these ratings also imply there are plenty of humans who will beat LLMs at chess.
I'd find it deeply funny if the optimal vibe coding workflow continues to evolve to include more and more human oversight, and less and less agent autonomy, to the point where eventually someone makes a final…
It's not just the risk percent but also the scale of "very wrong" that matters. Sounds like she is proceeding with the procedure despite this fear, which seems to indicate to me a fairly astute assessment of the risk.…
This feeling may have more to do with the nature of biographies than anything.
