The idea is awesome, the implementation looks great as well, but hardware support is super limited.

Well, they are ensuring that hardware prices stay extremely high by buying all the flash memory at a premium, so at least they've got that aspect kinda under control?

They meant a Feierabendbierchen, which is strictly required for construction workers by some DIN standard, I’m sure

I’d say “eigentlich”

I tested it just now. My AirPods are connected to the iPhone, and searching “AirPods” gives me the accessibility settings for them, not the actual AirPods’ settings. I have to open the Settings app and then they’re up there, but it’s ridiculous that they don’t show in the search.

It is imperative that the feature be shipped, damned be the quality of that which underlies its existence. And once that feature has indeed been shipped, the machine shall toil, and from its work there shall be thousands of lines born, and for the next feature: thousands more!

I think the combination of YC being “a place for founders” and the proliferation of useless AI startups, each with its own little weird AI-booster founder, probably has added to this phenomenon as well.

I recently saw a video where one of these founders showed their “programming” setup, and it was a cashier’s microphone wherein he whispers sweet nothings to the LLM, because of course he doesn’t write code anymore (who even reads code nowadays, am I right?!). I think this is the type of individual who’s lost in the bubble sauce that ends up writing the most absurd comments around here.

It is a marketing stunt in the sense that, instead of being honest and saying "Taking structured output from token predictors and running that as commands for external tools, then passing the output back to the token predictor in a loop can lead to very bad consequences, especially if they have internet access.", they say "Our models are so freaking smart they can hack HuggingFace"

That's a lot of inefficiency being displayed by such a high-pressure, high-performance, individual. You could've just written "my childhood fucking sucked and I obviously developed some issues, but I justify it as it being good, since I have achieved some level of success, as defined by the circles I dwell in". Also, wasting time commenting on a social platform? Disappointing.

Edit: clicked the profile, it's just a troll, lol. Joke's on me.

Well they should fix that ASAP

Yes! It makes total sense to share with myself a Pages document as PDF! I‘ll promptly think of sharing if all I want to do is save/export a file in a different format. I think we can extend that helpful language to the entire OS! No need for a “copy” or “download” button, it’s all sharing, one way or another! Share share share!

One can only hope.

I think you meant “pedantic distinction”. Everyone reading that comment understands that recreating Minecraft is a very common tutorial for game development, not literally one of the most common tutorials on the internet in general.

There’s no way you actually believe these word-predictors are actually thinking, right?
