this sounds exactly what I'd expect from v0.3.0 of a software.

a lot of rough edges of this program I see are actually features I never even used myself in photoshop-like program that much, so if I was doing that kind of AI rewrite I'd also miss polishing them. publicly releasing this right now is exactly the move author needs to get human feedback from people who actually use these features daily

It's cool how you can just do this now in 2026. I hope it gets cheaper and easier to do with other big projects written in outdated or just not good enough languages

HN have very primitive comments layout that gives too big of an focus to large responses and first most upvoted post with all its replies. I think just because of that it's better to do something about large responses with little value. I'd rather they just share conversation link

the last one with XMonad is the only one that looks even remotely good to me in compared to what we have today

bad idea

"the current platform direction and climate combined with an algorithm that prioritises hatred, polarisation, and sensationalism, alongside growing privacy and data protection concerns"

While I agree that this platform has a lot of hateful people, it's definitely possible after some basic internet hygiene end up with nice recommendations feed especially after forming solid following list with good people, no hatred no politics only coolest people doing cool things. I like it there. It's the place where things happen that you read about on other cites only weeks later in some twisted form

What narrative? I'm too deep in it all to understand what narrative being pushed onto me?

What examples of AI integrations annoy you? Because I have such wonderful time randomly discovering AI integrations where they actually fit nicely: 1) marimo documentation has ask button to quickly get some help, kind of like way smarter RAG; 2) postman has AI that can write little scripts that visualize responses however you want (for example I turned bunch of user ids into profile links so that I could visit all of them); 3) Grok button on each Twitter post is just amazing to quickly get into what post even references and talks about. 4) Google's AI Mode saved me many clicks, even just Gemini that can quickly fetch when certain TV Show goes live and make reminder is amazing

That's "GMO-free" kind of marketing, not a good thing

Out of all other companies Google provide the most generous free access so far. I bet this gives them plenty of data to train even better models

post trained models strongly inclined to pass response similar to what got them high RL score, it's slightly wrong to keep thinking of LLMs as just next token predictions from dataset's probability distribution like it's some Markov Chain

Technically true but also a very dumb take and manipulative phrasing

Job offers require experience in technologies that you won't ever need building solo project. I'm not surprised when those big scale technologies get shoehorned into small project for the sake of learning, showcasing "look I know that one" etc. Only totally missing this point could explain why someone would make this hyperbole rant page
