Hey Google: please control my computer.

this is core inflation no? it's interesting that it doesn't account for food and energy. so likely much higher in reality...

Soldering was my favorite part of ee course in the university… i even kinda liked the fume..

80% of my day to day job has never been pumping out lots of code. it is a complicated career is it? we do a lot of alignment, design and thinking. i can't even agree the idea of outsourcing thinking, i think AI is very good at helping us to think clearly, but it doesn't really "think" for us.

if you do that then... likely very replacable.

seems.. interesting. will definitely be interested in testing this.

what exactly is going wrong with github aside from all the outages in the past x months? i honestly don't find it particularly disruptive to work/personal stuff. excuse my ignorant, maybe i don't use github enough to know what causes this fury...

fwiw - i do keep a fair amount of code in my computer. i don't push everything..

I feel this must have been posted on HN before, but I was pretty shock at finding this out...

thanks for bringing it back!

Just want to comment here. I hate reviewer leave a bunch of nits and stamp the PR. This is ambiguous, are these nits asks or just you opinions? What if I dont address all of them. Also folks need to take rejection lightly - your reviewer wants you to address something, thats really it.

Firstly - Greetings! It’s so rare to see a Clojure person in the wild! and secondly, I really resonated with this! it feels like we, computer programmer, typically overthink too much to begin with, and then LLMs come along and actually help us overthink even more!

was it actually? I don't know the full technical behind this but wiki does suggest: "A search engine called "RankDex" from IDD Information Services, designed by Robin Li in 1996, developed a strategy for site-scoring and page-ranking.."

This is before Google.

i argue that most ideas aren't necessary novel, so stealing idea isn't necessary bad.... e.g. i don't think google search was entirely novel, but was well executed.

honestly - meta has built quite a lot of cool things, but c-suite is probably to be blamed for what's going on today.
