> OpenAI / Anthropic models have largely stopped advancing - that's not a good look when you're pre-IPO and Chinese models are catching up.

This is obviously untrue… do you use any of them?

It is potent and it clearly is immensely valuable based on their historic growth. What spin is he putting?

Humans are perfectly capable of holding two conflicting beliefs at once. He can genuinely believe this trajectory is dangerous while also believing that if Anthropic stops, someone less cautious takes its place. There’s also such a thing as hope: you can participate in something while still trying to change where it ends up.

He’s at the head of a stampede. Being near the front gives him influence over its direction; it doesn’t give him the ability to stop it. If Anthropic sits down, the stampede doesn’t stop. Anthropic just gets trampled.

That contradiction is basically the entire problem I was describing.

I know the common take online is that this is Anthropic doing pre-IPO marketing. I don’t think it is. I think Dario is genuinely afraid of the inevitability of AI turning into internet slime mold: consuming the environment, turning it into its own playground, and eventually manipulating human culture along with it. So am I.

That said, if slowing this down were possible, I think it would have happened by now. Maybe he’s hoping the OAI/HF incident becomes something the industry can rally around, but it won’t. The fundamental problem is simpler: no one will slow down because no one trusts anyone else to slow down.

Native datepickers fall apart when you need to handle different date formats as user preferences (not as browser default)

Note: they didn’t create lottie, they sorta acquihired the developer who made it and brought the project under their umbrella

Love this. Building a website this way really teaches you why we started having all the complexities in web frameworks today. For certain simple websites like this one, the tradeoffs are worth it. I rebuilt our company website this way too. (Sescollc.com)

It depends on a number of factors, one of which is how the authors perceive the work. Does it stand on its own merits or is it interesting because of the technical decisions? Sometimes it starts as a technical exploration and outgrows itself faster than the author can come to terms with the magnitude of the work.

I appreciate the link, but the tone of this comment is very un-HN. I don’t even see people talk that way about 4chan, which one can argue would deserve it more.

Not sure why this is being downvoted, also curious

Apparently people that support Trump

Venge.io is probably one of the most impressive games I've played in the browser, and was built using PlayCanvas.

I was surprised when this layout worked:

  cabinet 200cm x 92cm top 3cm bottom 15cm scale 5
       50cm     \*        \*        20cm
  \*   drawer   door     door     drawer
  \*   drawer   ^        ^        drawer
  \*   ^        ^        <        drawer
  \*   >        drawer   drawer   <

So I inspected the odd shaped element and noticed it would overflow. Probably fine for your purposes.

Super cool!

In between barrel files and no barrel files, are unbarrelled files. This is where you have one installable package (i.e.: @cool-lib/core) and create imports from sub-paths like this:

import Button from "@cool-lib/core/button";

import Link from "@cool-lib/core/link";

import Widget from "@cool-lib/core/widget";

This is similar to what lodash does too. Still have more imports, but only one package.json dependency! And the same perf gains.

How difficult would it be to feed in design system components to the AI? Design system building blocks could serve to improve the quality of outputs vs straight CSS/Tailwind
