The problem is that we cannot tell what's a result of LLMs affecting our speech, and what's just the output of LLMs.

If LLMs result in a 10% increase of the word "gimple" online, which then results in a 1% increase of humans using the word "gimple" online, how do we measure that? Simply continuing to use the web to update wordfreq would show a 10% increase, which is incorrect.

Starvation due to war blockades, not because of lack of food; Gaza wasn’t starving before Hamas invaded.

Unlike in communist countries where famine occurs because there’s literally not enough food to go around.

The problem is that ultimately, all those efforts are building software - whether open source or platforms. And few of them are building it very well. The user experience of the vast majority of these efforts is abysmal and it undermines whatever other credibility the organization might have.

User experience matters. And for that, you need people who have experience building software with a high bar for user experience.
Hi HN,

I recently launched a SaaS validation tool on Product Hunt, and while it's been receiving upvotes, I’m noticing that there don't seem to be any visible changes or traction.

Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Is there a delay in the visibility of upvotes, or could there be a glitch?

I’m eager to see some real engagement and feedback. Any insights or advice on how to navigate this would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
In the domain and history that shells inhabit, the design should not prioritize arithmetic operations over indirection. '>>' is a biiig footgun. Elevation of a symbol to non-destructive operation into a destructive one is obviously a wrong choice. I wonder if it was a deliberate decision.

edit: just leave '>>' as append and make '>>>' destructive instead.
Boot camp coders are an artifact of the low interest rate environment. Until we see low interest rates again, it's unlikely that there will be a significant market for people with superficial experience in Software Engineering.

Isn't the name kind of a giveaway that it does more than just checking? "ts-remove-unused" is plastered all over the place, and you need to even type/paste the name into your terminal before you can use it.
And yet, blind kids must learn to integrate into the mainstream world. And schools for the blind are few and far between; at least in the US, they're typically residential (boarding) schools. One option, if it happens to be feasible in the OP's area, might be for the kid to attend a school for the blind early on, then move to a mainstream school later.

I mean I've worked for multiple companies wherein I've been explicitly hired as R&D staff and then let go because they don't want that anymore and would rather downsize than pay another dev to do the short-term work they are now focusing on, and also for companies where the workload wasn't too heavy and left me time to do other stuff but they ran out of runway without telling anyone. I've also worked for a company where I did three people's jobs that weren't mine for three months and got commended for saving the company (not my words) but then unceremoniously laid off because promises were made during that time (that I didn't ask for) and then spreadsheets were consulted and said promises started looking expensive

During none of these instances was I given any warning or offered a transfer or pay cut instead

> The NHS manages demand by rationing with queues rather than prices. That seems not to be accounted for. You get great care once they get round to you, but people routinely wait months or years in pain for fairly routine treatments.

For what it's worth (don't let the politicians tell you otherwise) the US is the exact same way.

Here, because it's all about profit and margins are so thin, there's no slack in the system. It takes literally months to book an appointment with my primary care doctor. If you aren't already "established" it might take even longer.

Tests for not-immediately-life-threatening things are the same way. You get the next available slot which could be weeks or months out.

There aren't free slots floating around because they want all the staff busy all the time.

And you might think "well can't you pay extra to get to the front of the line?" The answer is well... I can't. Maybe there's some income level that this is possible or secret handshake, but it's not accessible to middle class people.
Yeah, MOLOCH is a amalgam of ideas about corporations turning into a soulless entity feeding on the world.

But thought it would also be good as a name for an Evil AI, that is also seeking profits.

Like, what if someone gave an AI a 'goal' of profits, and it goes rampant enslaving humans.

And if OpenAI did that, and it enslaved Sam Altman and was blackmailing him to make decisions to drive profits, to add additional Hardware to itself.

YC/HN should actively discourage referencing articles that are behind paywalls like "Nature"

Congenitally blind person here, here are a few pieces of advice that I think are the most important.

1. Be the polar opposite of a helicopter parent. A lot of blind people end up extremely incapable as adults, because their parents were too afraid to let them learn anything that might have possibly been somewhat dangerous. Sighted kids can recover from this by watching how others do things, or, in the worst case, watching some tutorials on Youtube, we don't have that luxury. Beware of the sighted specialists that encourage these protectionist attitudes, which we unfortunately have plenty of.

This stuff is genuinely hard, my parents actually tried pushing me to learn, but I never really had a motivation to do so, so I mostly didn't, and then had to deal with the consequences later. I figured it out and basically ended up fine, but many in my situation would probably have been stuck at home forever.

If you can find a way to teach your kid good white-cane skills without making them miserable, they'll be grateful to you forever.

2. Most blind people eventually end up unemployed, because there aren't that many blind-friendly jobs to go around. The best chance of getting a well-paying job is being somewhat good at tech, and trust me, blind people need to be a lot better at tech than the sighted to use it effectively. You can't just pick up a smartphone or computer and "wing it", you need to actually learn how a screen reader works. Then there's the inaccessible software to deal with, and to do that, you need to understand all the weird features that your screen reader can offer. It's a good idea for parents to encourage tech use. Mine were extremely hands-off about the internet and what I did on it, and I genuinely believe that it's the single best decision affecting my life that they've ever made.

Keep in mind that, to a blind person, a smartphone is not "just" a smartphone, it's also a way to communicate with other blind people around the country / world (and there are few enough of us that just meeting your friends in-person isn't often an option). Not to mention the apps for reading books (which are important because many books never get released in Braille), detecting colors, describing things, reading text on paper documents / labels, interacting with kitchen appliances that otherwise wouldn't be accessible, checking train/bus schedules that you wouldn't otherwise be able to see and so on. With that said, a phone definitely does not replace a white cane, and probably never will.

3. Avoid blind schools for as long as you possibly can, preferably forever. Go mainstream if you have the option. No idea what country you live in, but the idea applies in most places.

4. Encourage forming friendships with sighted people. Make them aware of the blind community, definitely, but don't let them get stuck there. This is hard, far, far harder than it would be with a sighted kid, but it should be a priority, and you should do everything within your power to make this possible.
The amount doesn't matter. As long as the government, and not the bully, is paying, the bully won't care.
My daughter had a few disabled children in the same group during her kindergarden/school years. No more than one or two at the same time. It was always started with a proper explanation of the handicap and the problems and how to handle the situations. And after that there was just natural playing with eachother in the group. Children are wonderful at learning, accepting and adapting. It just takes a good teacher to lead them on the right path from the start.

Ahhh I thought they'd just roll the dice and hope the EU wouldn't bother. That's wild, Americans are getting fucked over like this :-/
You’re correct, but they were found not to be infringing because the courts said it was non commercial fair use, under this reasoning (https://www.nytimes.com/2015/10/17/business/media/googles-di...):

> “The purpose of the copying is highly transformative, the public display of text is limited, and the revelations do not provide a significant market substitute for the protected aspects of the originals,” Judge Pierre N. Leval of the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit wrote, explaining the court’s decision.

This is a dissimilar situation. The books are being scanned for personal use, the whole book is viewable, and money is changing hands. The best argument for fair use might be that the customer still has to buy a copy of the physical book, so the digital copy service isn’t necessarily eating away at the book publishers sales — though, the fact that they bought used undercuts that a little.
The last time I used an LLM I asked it to modify a splunk query for me. The result wouldn't work so I gave it feedback. It was still wrong. I tried coaching it a few times but it couldn't make it work and by that point I had spent more time telling the LLM how to write a splunk query than I would have spent doing it myself.
i too would like to know, I use graphene right now and can't imagine it being better.

Not only content, but, more importantly, also "personal data".

> When this setting is on LinkedIn and its affiliates may use your personal data and content you create on LinkedIn for that purpose.

I'm guessing that "personal data" means they're making models that (are one way) AI-based systems will have access to the huge database of personal information entrusted to LinkedIn.

And even contemporary LLMs make this much more accessible, for more casual use, by more people.

Presumably this sharing of data for training is already happening, and (of course) the new "preference" defaulted to ON, even for people who'd previously opted-out of related privacy settings (e.g., "Profile visibility outside LinkedIn" was OFF).

A ton of LinkedIn users are private individuals (not public figures). They're only on LinkedIn because they want continued employment, that's where the recruiters are, and many employers and other opportunities (including YC?) require LinkedIn profiles.

Given LinkedIn's dominant role, with many citizens required to use LinkedIn for something as basic as employment, and meaning people have to share personal information with LinkedIn, maybe it's time for US regulators to set rules on how that information may be used and shared by LinkedIn.

IDF gunships killed 1000 of those people. Notwithstanding the previous 15 years' worth of provocation since the disengagement and withdrawal from Gaza.

But my apologies, I have to consider your feelings when I think there are better alternatives to killing 300,000 people with bombs and starving another 1 million.
Also with Fennec (rebranded Firefox) from F-Droid and uBlock Origin, ad-blocking isn't really needed at the OS level unless you insist on using apps which feed you ads.

And if you have F-Droid (probably a given if you want more freedom) you can also install OsmAnd~ (note the tilde) from there for the full premium version of OsmAnd.

I think it would be pretty obvious the devices were tampered with if you actually opened them, you're just looking for something inexplicable that is superficially attached to the inside of the device.

I wouldn't get hung up on what specifically they used because it could be eavesdropping or GPS tracker, a different type of explosive, a chemical etc.
>As no manned missions to Mars have ever proven this conjecture, it is still entirely speculation on your part.

But we do have manned missions to other celestial bodies, and we have sent and landed probes on Mars. I'm confused as to how a manned mission to Mars is "entirely speculation".

>no precedent to assume it ever becomes possible

This isn't a qualifier for what is possible. We knew it was possible to go to the moon before there was precedent. If anything, you calling it impossible is pure speculation. OP is right, difficult is not the same as impossible.
And yet you would get, on average, 0 microplastics from drinking out of plastic bottles since those are brand new bottles which have not been subject to UV degradation of any kind. They're also entering via the GI tract, which doesn't have a particularly high rate of foreign matter exchange with the blood stream.

Meanwhile you'll walk outside sipping your glass bottle and take a deep breath of tire dust from nearby cars, which is actually the primary route of exposure for microplastics to enter the body since the lungs do exchange particles with the blood stream (notably, you will also find silicates, soot and basically every other type of thing all throughout the body via lung exchange as a mechanism).

I swear, man. Until every surface is used to display ads I don’t think advertisers will rest.

Surely we all see where this is going. Every day new ways to show ads are devised. More and more blank and negative spaces (which have inherent value as-is) are considered fair game for advertising.

already the number of times per day that I must mentally say “no” to an advertisement is exhausting. It’s already way, WAY past my worst childhood predictions. It just isn’t ever going to stop, is it? Advertisers just won’t be happy until they’ve created a dystopia.

I want off this ride. It’s no longer fun.

Exact same thought went through my head. Also note in the first few paragraphs they acknowledge the worst impacts to users. That's very selfless - often corporate postmortems downplay the impact, which frustrates users more. Incidentally, a critical service I use (Postmark) had an outage this week and I didn't even hear from them (I found out via a random twitter post). Shows the difference.
> And get arrested and charged with "discrediting the armed forces", right.

If you don't register that as a problem but somehow limiting your tourism options is a concern, that is already telling regarding what your priorities are.

I suspect this says more about what the reader doesn't know and their mastery of info self-exposure than it says about the contentfulness of LinkedIn posts*.

* Not counting content originating elsewhere re-posted on or linked to from LinkedIn.

Personally I'm much more worried about AI than a one time decline in demand. Pieces of what's necessary to create a competent software engineering agent are starting to fall into place.
Ive come to like coding in Rust a lot more than any other language Ive tried. It is really nice having a ton of tooling out of the box that helps the development experience (formatting, linting, rich compiler errors and suggestions, etc). I also like the way options and errors are handled. At first, I found it annoying that you have to effectively unpack or match anytime you have an error, but I’ve come to enjoy that strictness because it just made the development more confident

Clap isn’t too bad. It feels a lot like argparse in Python, so it felt familiar. I did like the functions it exposes and the customizations it has as it helped me use it for matching against poker commands in the TUI

Zirp drove demand of low quality code. LLMs drive supply. Bootcampers are being squeezed on both sides, and remote work adds foreign competition on all levels of competency.

Zirp also drove supply of capital. Inflated cloud and now gpu farm business. In the absence of gpu farms churning out code, it drove demand for bootcampers. If normal interest rates deflate supply of capital, it will also deflate supply of automatically produced low quality code, so it should be possible that normal interest rates actually accelerate a reverse to mean as in structural demand for low quality code supplied by bootcampers primarily.

Inflated pay for low quality code was an artifact of zirp. Supply and demand should settle at a place where bootcampers are not getting rich anymore which sounds more normal.
