git didn't succeed based on the mental model. It got a foot in the door with better tooling and developer experience then blew the door open when GitHub found a way to productize it.
Peter Thiel thinks that he has the upper hand and will outsmart everyone to stay at the top. The problem with chaos is that it’s very difficult to control so there’s a good chance he won’t and different actors will come to the top.
it's edging into the intersection to get a better view on the camera. it's further than you would normally pull out, but it will NOT pull into traffic.
It's not edging; it enters the street going a consistent speed (usually >10mph) from my driveway. The area is heavily wooded, and I don't think it "sees" the cross direction until it's already in the road. Or perhaps the lack of signage or curb make it think it has the right of way.
My neighbor joked that I should install a stop sign at the end of my driveway to make it safer.
The fact that it does't handle some specific person's driveway well is far from a condemnation of the system. I'm far more concerned about it mishandling things on "proper" roads at speed.
The software probably has a better idea of their car’s dimensions than a human driver, so will be able to get a better view of traffic by pulling out at just the right distance.
Here you go HN commenters. Last month when I made the observation that "from what I've read recently, I've started to get the impression that the explosion in mental health problems (depression, autism rates etc) has more to do with the western diet than genetics"[0]
Y'all called me MAHA and down voted me into the negatives. Please, insult your own analytical ability by doing the same here. This time I'll just revel in your ideologically confined science denial this time.
A study proposing that diet can affect the expression or severity of some autism-related behaviours is not the same thing as claiming “80% of what people consider autism is actually just the western diet's effect on normal brain chemistry."
Except depression rates are rising at similar or worse levels in other places too, including sunnier/tropical regions and the ones with "better" diets.
The main instigator of depression is still societal as the postmodern era is pushing everyone into seclusion and addicting them to constant individualized dopamine hits, increasing the miserable effect on one's chronic mood and exacerbating one's self-consciousness about it.
Why am I not surprised that a blog was written about LLM coding going from 20% to 80% useful, yet all of the HN comments are still nit picking about some negative details rather than building positive ideas toward some progress...
Is the programmer ego really this fragile? At least luddites had an ideological reasoning, whereas here we just seem to have emotional reflexes.
It's because we see a bunch of people completely ignoring the missing 20% and flooding the world with complete slop. The push back is required to keep us sane, we need people reminding others that it's not at 100% yet even if it sometimes feels like it.
It’s usually people doing side projects or non-programmers who can’t tell the code is slop. None of these vibe coding evangelists ever shares the code they’re so amazed by, even though by their own logic anyone should be able to generate the same code with AI.
This kind of thought policing is getting to be exhausting. Perhaps we need a different kind of push back.
Do you know what my use case is? Do you know what kind of success rate I would actually achieve right now? Please show me where my missing 20% resides.
