Folks have been using Next.js this way for many years, and it has been documented, but not as clearly as we could have been. So the answer is, yes! There are no plans to ever deprecate client-side usage. We believe it's important to use the best parts of both the client and the server, not just one.
It's real tough conjuring a false warrant, miscounting money, breaking into a home with guns, terrorizing a home, disconnecting a security system, and eyeballing a lemon pound cake.

Getting to a working store will be hard if he's in Seattle, considering how many stores they've shut down in/near downtown Seattle in the past couple of years. Maybe he'll be flying to stores in the Caribbean region.

Article sez he 'plans to work a shift', then later sez 'he'll work a half day every month'. So I guess they mean a corporate shift?
Greed is a fabulous motivator but it can't surpass the laws of physics. This is probably why we don't have a cure for cancer or room temperature superconductors or jurassic parks.

It may be so that scaling down a language model like GPT 4 is not possible on hardware systems orders of magnitude smaller than the one used by OpenAI.

I'm not saying it's impossible but it's fallacious to just assume outright that it's inevitable because market forces.

For all we know it could turn out that the only way to get a gpt in a pocket format is through some form of analog chips that must be individually trained that Hinton aptly described as an era of mortal computing.

Tell HN: Linux developers were actually working for MS thanks to Copilot X
I just can't get my head around the fact that a big tech company can buy Github, a website that almost all the open-source world relies on, and then use the code on that website to train an LLM. Were there Terms of Service on Github in 2010 that allowed using my code for training LLMs? I don't think so. And yet we all have accepted the fact that MS can benefit from Linux and open-source developers in an indirect way.

True enough, but let's not forget that NASA blew up a lot of rockets before they ever got to orbit. Relativity did pretty darn well for a private enterprise. Good on them.

Sure. But it can then be spent by the company, and that doesn't (necessarily) destroy the company's value. Valuation isn't about physical assets.

Yeah, of course. It's a set of HTML/CSS/JS files, so you can do really anything with it!
Just to be clear you think OpenAI achieved this by holding off releasing it for a short period? And this achieved mainstream penetration? Or among programmers?

IMO stuff like deep fakes didn't become real until people started seeing it IRL. They weren't reading FUDy posts on HN or academic papers. Even the niche tech posts on NYT rarely get more than a few hundred thousand people reading them.

Fair enough.

It's a frequently-enough expressed trope that I tend to anticipate it and act preemptively.

Generalising the problem, what I see is the need to moderate power, and to balance power, in the sense of John Kenneth Galbraith's counterveiling power.

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Countervailing_power>

In the context of generative AI, the problem is of an unbalanced new power, that of generating text or speech that appears semantically meaningful, but whose purpose and intent are unclear, perhaps even to the parties operating the AI itself. More generally, however, within any communications channel in which social, political, economic, or other significant potential exists, you can be quite well assured that some entity, agent, or power, human, machine, or hybrid, will emerge to attempt to exploit that opportunity. I first saw this realised by my friend Woozle, after whom I've termed this "Woozle's Epistemic Paradox", first expressed on Google+, though now preserved in a Reddit post of mine:

Our present epistemic systems are undergoing kind of the same shock that the online community underwent when transitioning from BBSs and Usenet to the commercial web to social media.

We were used to a very high content-to-BS ratio because it took a certain amount of intelligence and intense domain-interest for people to be there in the first place -- and we've now transitioned to a situation where many people are there more or less accidentally and (the worst part), because of a high percentage of the population being present, there is now substantial power to be had by influencing the discussions that take place.

> My most principled objection to this law is that it requires papers to participate in online discussions

Agreed. Asking to provide identity documents to who knows what server is the worst.

America needs to get over intruding in people's lives. No one is committing a crime here. Stop trying to identify, track and harass people.
You can still do client-only routing (it was mentioned in the tweet linked above). It can be deployed anywhere that takes HTML/CSS/JS files.
This argument does not feel emotional to me, it feels like an intuition pump (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intuition_pump). Moral arguments almost always work by analogy, and this is one of them.

1) This assumption does not affect the example. If the well is already somewhat poisoned, making it more poisoned is still Bad.

2) The chemicals are definitely poisonous, but also have non-poisonous uses. 'The does makes the poison,' as Paracelsus put it. You still don't want them in your well water, typically.

3) Increased presence of poisonous chemicals in the well is literally what is presupposed by the example -- it's not an assumption, it's a premise.

4) This argument is anti-chemical-in-wellwater, it in no way touches on 'chemical stewards'. It's weird that you introduce this here -- effectively, you're modifying the analogy, and then pointing to the modified analogy and claiming it doesn't work.

5) See 4

6) See 4

7) This is a pretty reasonable assumption, given that there is no 'Ministry of AI'.

8) The fired ethicists may or may not have been good at their jobs, but no ethicists is probably worse than fallible ethicists.

You want to deflate the wallop this analogy packs, but I don't think you succeed.

A right of first refusal just means that they have the opportunity to buy the timeshare before you can sell it to anyone else. That would be a-ok for the customer, since either way the timeshare's off their hands.
To me `unknown` signals an intent to know, as in “I don’t know yet” (or put another way, “I don’t have any prerequisites for accepting this value, I can and will narrow it as appropriate”). In a codebase that otherwise takes type safety seriously, `any` in a type parameter (again to me) means “I don’t have any type narrowing agenda for this thing, it’s along for the ride and coming out the other side the same way it showed up”.

Things aren't normal because JavaScript in the browser is, technically, a very strange starting point for a computer revolution. It is quite different than the Unix REPL approach that preceded it. Much of the craziness is around shoe-horning javascript into the gcc paradigm (webpack) or shoe-horning gcc into javascript (webasm).

The question I'd like to explore, is what if you just author web pages in html, css, and javascript? I feel like web standards are very good, browsers are incredibly powerful, to the point it may be safe to attempt this approach.

Writing pages for modern browsers, with no polyfills, no transpilers, is quite pleasant. Writing JavaScript with arrow functions and destructuring and jquery-esque selector methods, and consistent event apis, is very pleasant. The module system is fine (I'm warming up to it). But how many professional front-end or full-stack folks would even know?

It’s all cyclical.

Before React two-way-binding of data, known today as Signals, was the way we did things. Angular is probably the best example from the pre-react time of that.

React came along with a philosophy of one-way-binding also known as unidirectional data flow. I’ve stuck with it because I think it enables much better local reasoning, and more predictable outcomes.

Neither are outdated.

I’d wager the most performance critical use cases would benefit from signals, things like tldraw.

But unless you’re doing something which needs to paint every single frame (ignoring animation/transitions), the extra overhead and mental load required by Signals is excessive. It’s overly complex and harder to reason about.

With no disrespect to Vue, Svelte, Solid, etc, they feel outdated in the way Angular does.
I don't know if it's just stupidity, ignorance, or a lack of effort. Maybe a combination. But this type of deficiency is so prevalent, it makes me want to see fully autonomous AI. Even though I know it's an incredibly bad idea and would never actively work towards it until it becomes an irreversible trend. People are stupid. They will do it soon enough. Hopefully it doesn't immediately turn into a disaster.

But GPT 4 definitely listens and understands. Usually.
We can agree that coding can involve math, engineering and craft. (And art!)

Mathy projects, formally driven: matrix multiply libraries, symbolic computation, constraint resolution, ...

Engineered projects, formally (or close to it) verifiable: 3D rendering pipeline, distributed database management, garbage collection process, ...

And craft. Which, based on the internet I have experienced, many apps unjustly inflicted upon me, and some memorable restarts between game saves, is most code.

Craft code necessarily involves amateur code, code which isn't economically worth engineering (when you can just throw unit tests at it. Or just wait for user reports!), code referencing weakly characterized libraries or interfaces, and code involving features that have become complex enough that the best reference model for its expected and unexpected behaviors is now itself.

Everything required for apple to know not only where you are, but which way your hand is pointing, as well as where "smart devices" are in your house is already being sold and rolled out en masse to the majority of people in the ecosystem.
It is nevertheless a laptop part, which compromises performance for battery consumption (with much lower clocks). You might not want this if you value performance to the dollar more than some wall power.
> Amazing how environmentalists are showing zero interest in dead whales washing up on the east coast where they happen to be doing prep work for wind farms too.

Hadn’t heard of this, briefly looked in to it and there is no evidence the wind farm surveys are causing whale deaths which are part of a years-long trend. Lots of speculation, not evidence.

"In a rare moment of humanity, one of your friends calls you. AI knows all about your friends and their recent events so had already summarized talking points. In case you can't be bothered, AI will carry out the actual conversation, it's trained in your voice."

This is the premise of an episode of Silicon Valley where Guilfoyle trains an AI to act as his chat agent surrogate based on his historical transcripts, and then his colleague creates another one and they end up just conversing with each other.

They are "special" but they also aren't.

There are numerous flags you can put on a transaction to hint things like "This is a recurring charge." "This is a merchant initiated charge." "This was placed with a card that the merchant recorded as part of transaction 123456789". Much of this is used from a fraud-management perspective (for example, a recurring transaction usually won't have a CVV or 3-D Secure information because the customer is not involved in the transaction flow), not to control recurring behaviour.

However, it's not a singular entity-- each individual payment is still a free-standing operation and could usually succeed without any of those flags.

Some countries have stronger requirements. India seems forward looking, where there are specific regulations to tie installments to an explicit confirmation on a per-installment basis.
There's chrome/FF plugins that rewrite every url you're linked to old.reddit.com which is better than the builtin user setting. I'm a frontend dev who should like the type of JS stuff Reddit tried to do last time around but it was a UX failure.

HN is still the ideal UX model for Reddit style sites (besides comment formatting + images/video submissions + long comment threads + native search integration). and anything that adds to that via JS/async should start from there and improve it by loading it faster. Like a lot of redesigns its 2 steps forward in one direction and 2 step back as a whole.

Things like speed of opening threads and video thumbnails etc were a big improvement but they weren't better than the 5yr old RES extension on top of the much simpler base of old Reddit.

The previews beta Reddit that came out a few months ago had a way better search UI and nice redesign but also made the comment UX way worse requiring hitting "load more" 10x more often favouring non threaded comment threads (scrolling > interaction) which is not how Reddit works IRL.

Retrospective self-reported investigations multiplied by motivated reasoning feels pretty reasonable to me.

If you're asking for an LLM this will get worse because the first L means "large", as in too large to fit in a phone without a network connection.
What approach would be better?
It is also not just JavaScript, but also with current AI technologies, which arguably, change even faster than JavaScript. You see, fast changing technology does not imply the underlying tech is bad, but rather there are unexplored new ideas and there are enough interested people ready to dive right in. Yes, it is exhausting to follow. Yes, it is frustrating when the floor shifts underneath you. However, dismissing a tech just because it is fast changing is not a good altitude.
The core of Next.js is static/CSR. There's a one line configuration option to set your application in this mode—if you don't want to use the server, you don't have to.
Running locally and “give you” are two very different things. Financially you paid for the phone. From a lock in point of view the chip will be proprietary and very hard to reverse engineer. They can indeed hide it behind a local API that apps that they can ban at will would need to use.

Whoever wrote this piece is a bad communicator who thinks he's a good communicator, and then goes through life getting confused about why no one understands him.

For example, in the story about the Japanese, he assumes some context from the reader: "What are they building? What is Fujitsu and what is Habitat and why does Japan need their own special version of it?" It's not even clear they're building anything technical, so I wondered, "Why do they need a client and server? And also, didn't you ever think to check their internal technical details before? What did you think would be the result?"

> “who’s going to pay to make all those links?” or “why would anyone want to put documents online?”

These are good questions and you better have a well-worded answer! In fact, it is easy to answer these if you have prepared for them. Did you just assume that the potential customer would already have familiar with the technicals of your product? If that was the case, they would have bought it from someone else already. Your target demo is the uninformed.

That wasn't the impression I got from the article - I think the title was a tongue in cheek way of saying quite the opposite: telling people isn't enough, it's your job as the explainer to guide people through the full path to understanding.
