On: Maybe the G in AGI stands for Gemini

[impure]

Gemini is also my favourite. It’s very smart and has a backbone. I don’t think the Gemini 3 Pro complaint is very fair as it was listed as ‘preview’. Although I should note Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite is 2.5x the cost of the previous version and I’m quite annoyed by that.

On: this css proves me human

[impure]

This actually makes me more likely to think it’s AI generated and you used a script to try to hide it.

[asadm → impure]

it certainly is portrayed that way.

On: You need to rewrite your CLI for AI agents

[impure]

It’s always amusing when the all powerful agents need our help to work properly.

Them: Agents will write code 10x faster than a human.

Also them: You will have to dumb down your CLI for them to function properly.

On: Disable Your SSH access accidentally with scp

[impure]

Ah, file permissions. My old friend. Good thing this happened on a 'local' server and not a remote VPS.

Billing caps? Google? Ha ha ha ha... OK, I'm sad now.

On: Why Go Can't Try

[impure]

I really hate it when people try to justify Go’s design decisions. Try would be very useful. The real reason why is because the Go team refuses to take any lesson from any other programming language except for C. That’s why there are so many questionable decision. Also I was a little disappointed there was no mention of panics which are one such questionable decision. Also the author stopped trying to cover up their AI written tracks at the conclusion because you already read it so who cares.

Go acknowledges taking the design of the object file format from, IIRC, Modula-2. You are very wrong.

On: Enable CORS for Your Blog

[impure]

I have noticed some sites block cross origin requests to their feeds. It’s annoying but I just use a server now so I don’t care. I very much recommend RSS readers to use a server as it means you get background fetch and never miss a story on sites with a lot of stories like HN.

From the linked post, I think the point of fetching it in-browser is so that your subscriptions stay private. Idk why this is desirable, but if people want it, it’s nice to give them the option.

On: The Hunt for Dark Breakfast

[impure]

It has been speculated that over half of the breakfast in the universe is dark breakfast.

[GuB-42 → impure]

Others say we underestimated the importance of a small quantity of eggs and proposed a modified theory that doesn't need dark breakfast.

[tclancy → impure]

Can be confirmed by the fact anytime I eat a diner breakfast I feel more full than can be justified by the weight of the food alone.

[qingcharles → impure]

Yes, Earth could be in a Dark Breakfast Local Minimum. Potentially there are worlds out there where all breakfasts are Dark and their scientists cannot even comprehend the idea of an Egg Singularity.

[Oarch → impure]

By mass, sure - but have you considered delectability?

[mekdoonggi → Oarch]

Even though it's not delectable by current methods, we can observe dark breakfasts effects on the movement of dietary bodies.

[riskable → impure]

On the darkest day of the year, the dark breakfast can be balanced on its edge.

[BigTTYGothGF → impure]

There's a lot more dark breakfast in the winter time.

On: Colorado proposal moves age checks from websites to operating systems

[impure]

Like the web attestation API Google tried and got so much backlash for? Good luck, I guess.

On: AI is going to kill app subscriptions

[impure]

Making the app is the easy part. The hard part is getting users. Also I have doubts if AI can make a sufficiently complex app.

[joquarky → impure]

It's a whole lot easier if the app is intended to have only one user.
