I quite liked this, a bit repetitive. Fun fact: these people think that they're responsible for making the sun rise every day. Maybe they are! I guess these are pretty correlated.

I'm always surprised to see HN people saying models aren't good. What are these guys building? The best engineers I know, from startup to big tech admit these models are incredible. Including people I don't know personally, foundational engineers from every area. The average HN person though, is doing some quantum-alien computation that not even the best developers in the world can grasp.

I disagree with the author when they say something along the lines of “why don’t we use buttons instead of using these new assistive technology? Buttons are much faster, and I proved humans like fast.” I think that’s false. Why after 10 years of software development I haven’t learned EMACS? Because I’m lazy, because I don’t think it’s the bottleneck of my work. My bottleneck might be creativity or knowledge and conversational interfaces might be the best thing there are for these (in the lack of a knowledgeable and kind human, which the author also seems to agree with). Anyway, I don’t know, I found the title a bit disconnected from the content and the conclusions a bit overlappingly confusing but this is a complicated question. In the end I agree that we want a mix of things, we want a couple of keyboard strokes and we want chats. But most of all we probably want direct brain interface! ;)

I thought this was going to be about the UV rays from the sun... But it's another python package manager. We're running out of names.

This subthread are among the best comments I've read in this website.

Curious to know what you're using under the hood for the python! I've download the repo and a quick search with "pyodide" didn't return anything.

I wonder why they claim they need this... Tor seems to be doing fine as an organization without collecting user data? Why maintaining Firefox is much more expensive? I guess the codebase for Firefox is much larger and in the end Tor is a fork of Firefox, right? So maybe they do need much more resources? Not to say I'm not disappointed with Mozilla once again.

>And Mozilla leadership is associated with radical left politics, just as an extra.

Do you have proof for this? I'd be curious. I also fail to see how is that related to the collecting data by default thing. Is that a leftist thing now?

This is the best title, OP.

I think this startup-y way of tapping into meditation i pretty silly but also, idk maybe it's the way for us nerds to achieve these things?
