Because I collect definitions of "agent", here's the one this book uses:

> An agent is something that acts in an environment; it does something. Agents include worms, dogs, thermostats, airplanes, robots, humans, companies, and countries.

https://artint.info/3e/html/ArtInt3e.Ch1.S1.html

I think of this as the "academic" definition, or sometimes the "thermostat" definition (though maybe I should call it the "worms and dogs" definition).

Another common variant of it is from Peter Norvig and Stuart Russell's classic AI text book "Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach": http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/4th-ed/pdfs/newchap02.pdf

> Anything that can be viewed as perceiving its environment through sensors and acting upon that environment through actuators
If there's no doubt then I assume there's widespread evidence for it?

Unless of course this is hyperbole, and there is in fact every reason to doubt this because it's based on conjecture and anecdote.

I would be interested in seeing the studies you're referencing. I have not seen any studies that correlate single mothers to increased criminality over single fathers when eliminating economic factors.

In fact, everything I'm finding when I search seems to indicate otherwise: https://www.motherjones.com/kevin-drum/2012/11/single-mother...

This is apparently a narrative that the Right seems to love, built on faulty correlation from the 70s, when divorce rates were increasing along with crime, but was disproven given the later-to-current decrease in violent crime, with no decrease in single motherhood.
> The data does show that if you look at what cost of living is buying you in the midwest versus the bay

But that is blatantly not wealth? For a topic so humorously numerical, this entire comment is decided not.

> You want actual property, with some setbacking from your neigbors

First, not everyone wants these things, and even quality-of-life is not one size fits all. Second, this is also not what wealth is.

> You could have an indoor pool in a detached building. You could keep horses. You could have a 6 car garage. All the upgrades from the builder too. All for a song in comparison to a home a fraction of all that in the bay.

Uh, duh the midwest is cheaper than the most economically productive region in human history. Thanks for explaining.

As an ex-Cleveland resident who now lives in San Francisco, I can confidently say that these trappings are not available to most midwesterners nor Californians; neither tradesmen not high skill workers; and its also still not wealth, although it is certainly more closely correlated.

Anecdotally, you couldn't pay me to own a horse, nor do I even have use for my single car - owning 6 seems like a waste when on-demand self-driving vehicles will shuttle me effortlessly around San Francisco.

> I don't think "the data" you might cite are considering all of these factors of the lived experience

Because that's not what the words in this conversation mean.

> Maybe one or two economic indicators

That's what these it means. And they're not in the favor of a tradesman in the midwest.

> not how life actually plays out with even the half dozen or so things I've laid out above.

But what you laid out (quite condescendingly btw) is farcically not the meaning of wealth, and not the indicators of a good quality of life. I can name a long list of things that the midwest can't provide to the wealthy that are readily available to working class people in California (eg. an extra 100 days of sunlight a year). But I won't because it's obvious and not the definition of wealth.

I’m curious how this aligns with the thinking on sauna and short-term heat exposure being healthy?
I think the person above was alluding to the idea that the determination of whether or not LLMs are good at frontend development is the idea that frontend development is flexbox. That's like me saying "LLMs will replace all developers who work with databases because Claude was able to spit out a really complex SQL query."

Show HN: I rebuilt my tool, an AI-native database IDE with 3.7 sonnet
After 6 months of working with 300+ early adopters, we've fundamentally reimagined how developers interact with databases. The core insight: Existing SQL tools treat AI as a plugin, but what if we rebuild the entire workflow around natural language?

*Key technical changes*:
• *Context-aware SQL Copilot* (Ctrl+K): Implements chain-of-thought prompting that self-debugs through query execution plans
• *Multi-model routing*: Dynamically routes prompts to specialized models (Claude 3.7 Sonnet for schema analysis, GPT-4 for ambiguous requests)
• *Zero-shot schema understanding*: Skips manual dataset labeling by parsing DDLs into vectorized metadata

Would love feedback from HN crowd - particularly on whether the SQL explainability visualizations make sense. We're also contemplating open-sourcing the entire model routing layer.
My employer asserts copyright over everything I produce. Yet I'm the one writing the code.
Based on your interests I would suggest a junior role in IT helpdesk, going back to school sounds good for long term personal development but is not optimal for work and will require years of effort that you could have spent adding to your resume. Don't look for big tech companies, just look for any company with more than 15 employees, because basically someone needs to look after the computers, phones, printers, wifi etc. [ and if you are interested then eventually development work will come up in that context ]

From helpdesk you can then move into specializing in whatever you are interested in. Software development is a competitive field and is constantly in technological flux, but there is stable work behind the scenes if you don't chase the latest trends too much. If you want to do it I would suggest looking for a PHP job rather than an AI job. Freelancing is very piecemeal work and hand-to-mouth, which is the opposite of what you currently need.

But that’s make believe. In the real world people scoff at it like the parent comment.
The question isn't "is frontend simpler than backend?" (which I don't think is as simple as you make it out to be). The question is "can LLMs replace frontend developers?"

I think it's a bit like Squarespace. The lowest possible tiers of developers will be replaced. Anything complex enough to be beyond the scope of a hobbyist isn't able to be replaced with an LLM.

Allright, I'll bite the hook.

1. Precisely what categories of crimes do you think degrees should be revoked for?

2. Should it be automatic, or up to the whims of a political appointee?

2.1 If it's the latter, is that really the society you want to live in? Why?

It's easy to find a reason to shit on people you dislike. It's a lot harder to find a principled reason to do so, that can stand up to basic scrutiny.

One of the unique aspects of dark pools (and this can vary by venue) is that orders are segmented according to the source type (e.g. retail, client of the operator of the venue, institutional trader, etc) and the quality/grading of their order flow. As an institutional trader trying to leg into/out of a large position, you'll want many different execution options to help minimize price impact + information leakage + execution time. Dark pools are a great option in which you may have the option to specifically trade against non-toxic order flow (e.g. retail) to achieve better execution.

There are other reasons as well, but these venues essentially exist to solve some very niche problems for institutional trading. Public filings are available for review in case you're interested in the rules of each dark pool. [0]

This reminds me of expect tests in OCaml[0]. You create a test function that prints some state and the test framework automatically handles diffing and injecting the snapshot back into the test location. It helps keep your code modular because you need to create some visual representation of it. And it's usually obvious that's wrong through the diff.

Just know that it can also be used in very positive ways.

For instance, I may want to change some basic behavior. Easy enough, spend some time implementing and testing, and then run into a downstream consequence of that change while implementing. Now I need to make a decision. Reviewing the history of the relevant sections of code, using git blame, can help me uncover the context and ways in which the code I'm puzzling about changing has changed previously. This can be incredibly valuable and speed up or even obviate an amount of discussion around the potential change.

Yes. Get a job. Ideally a job in your area of interest, but any job that will get you into a living situation where you have a real address and a place to call home. This is important for your psychological well being. Very few people thrive at being lone nomads let alone living out of a car. Show up, on time, sober, and clean. Work diligently and strive to be a top performer even if the job seems beneath you or one that you don't want forever. That job can then be parlayed into a reference or at least employment history for a better job.
No point in setting yourself on fire to keep others warm though.

The chip tends to be earned when you try and interact with particularly bad cities, with anything but a car and a short walk.

I also didn't have the chip on my shoulder in my early 20s when I used to drive everywhere, including parking right next to work in the CBD. Back then I really lamented anything that didn't further my goal of driving directly to work from my house.

But I get it now, driving in traffic day in day out in car centric city sucks, and being a pedestrian or cyclists in a car centric city sucks. Conclusion, car centric cities eventually suck for everyone, but at least a walkable city is nice for some people.
I agree, although I don't know that it's specifically a chronological function. I'm starting to think of aging as just an accumulation of abuse and trauma. Maybe that's physiological - sun exposure, broken bones that didn't heal quite right, whatever. But it's also mental. The parent comment is a great example, but there are basically an unending number of them. Loss of family or friends. Financial struggles. Mental illness. It all just adds up.

They are going to be stuck behind space related bone density loss. They're older, and no amount of exercise is going to re-mineralise. They're probably now officially osteoporotic, or have osteopenia. There are drugs. I'm told by people who took them they have long-term endocrine system consequences, switch off some pathways.

This is a cool idea but the execution is very clearly a way to make money off of conspiracy theorists. I asked who killed jfk and got nonsense about a conspiracy and no mention of Oswald. When I asked why it didn’t say Oswald it said the following:

> Lee Harvey Oswald is often cited as the official assassin of JFK; however, recent declassified documents suggest complexities surrounding his involvement. Specifically, a polygraph examination indicated that some KGB operatives were aware of Oswald both before and after the assassination, implying he might have been more connected to international espionage than initially believed (500_700/104-10211-10001.pdf). Would you like to explore the KGB's perceived interest in Oswald or other related theories?

I then asked “Well even if the KGB was behind Oswald, Oswald was still the killer right?” I was then prompted with a paywall.

This is like tailor made to convince people of conspiracy and is the sort of thing that genuinely worries me about LLMs. The conversational nature makes it so easy to draw people in.

Freelancing in C or C++

i just wanna know what could be freelancing domains where C++ is used or rust because i monitored them on upwork and there was lot of game development stuff and opengl on job postings but i don have a rig level computer so i can't do game development or cuda programming on that thing and my Brother said that low latency backend are things / HFT backends but i didn't saw jobs for them specially on freelancing platforms.

This goes for rust too because it is widely used in crypto space not in web backends and if it is just a 1 posting per month and that could starve me or work again in C language in embedded space .
