Clicked on link, it tried to upsell me on twitter prime or whatever it is. Closed the promotion, now I'm just sitting on twitter, not on the link I clicked on.

That is sad.

I guess I'll play devil's advocate here, don't shoot me.

Over the course of my career I've had to deal with multiple hacks, DDOSes, and even situations working with the FBI. It's a mess, and extremely frustrating and unfair to those of us who are just trying to do a good job and make a living. Those of you who are throwing stones at Microsoft's coding, how confident are you that your code is safe from this new AI age?

Obviously MS handled this poorly, even after reading this article it's not clear how MS handles bug bounties. But that doesn’t mean this “researcher” deserves a pass.

Releasing 0-days, especially working exploit code for unpatched vulnerabilities, is extremely unethical. It has real potential to cause a lot of harm to regular engineers, and users who had nothing to do with the dispute.

the new bottleneck for development at work is code reviews. devs are creating whole features that would take months in only a couple weeks, but code reviewing that is a slow, painful process

The low latency is more of a pain point than a good thing, the way they have it implemented. Trying to have a casual conversation with it, as humans we naturally pause, and GPT will take this as you are "done" and start blabbing away.

I also suffer from finding the appropriate word I want as I've gotten older and slower, and this fast-voice-gpt just ends up frustrating me more than helping. I have to sit there and think out the whole sentence in my head before I say anything -- not very natural.

Just happened to me and I was really confused. First time I've seen any malware callouts so it had me worried for a minute.

> This file is clearly not malware

Yeah, it's all my code, that you've seen before...

waste of time and resources. you aren't going to win a fight against 3d printers. might as well outlaw the printers completely.

Lots of old man yelling at clouds energy in here.

This is new territory, you don't ban it, you adapt with it.

I blame the prevalence of package mangers in the first place. Never liked em, just for this reason. Things were fine before they became mainstream. Another annoying reason is package files that are set to grab the latest version, randomly breaking your environment. This isn't just npm of course, I hate them all equally.

misleading titles are a no-no on HN.

I agree with pseudopersonal in that the title should be changed. technically it's not misleading, but not everyone uses or is familiar with typescript.

Basic economics. If it's still at 1%, then people must be accepting the 1%.

Basic economics. If it's still at 1%, then people are taking 1%. That simple, crying about it wont help.

Well, it is file IO, plus processing on top. But it's not that simple, since if your data is small enough it can all be loaded into memory, allowing you to sidestep any file IO. But you still have the processing part...

My saying has always been: be nice to the DB

Don't use it anymore than you have to for your application. Other than network IO it's the slowest part of your stack.

Company that has already lied in the past lies again, and everyone eats it up, again...

The internet has taught me to never trust material science advancements at face value. Batteries, solar power, superconductors, nanomaterials.. Even when they legit work, there is usually a straight forward reason why it just isn't feasible, and that is conveniently left out of the press release. I have to go to the HN comment section to get disappointed once again.
