I was reminded of the universe of Doctor Who. It's an incredibly complex technology, but it often behaves either unpredictably, like AI agents, or like code written by a vibe-coder without understanding the architecture or boundary conditions. And programmers are more like architects of consciousness, building machines rather than writing code.

Similarly, when the Doctor hacks a PC, he doesn't write code but rather communicates with the computer, using diplomacy to crack the agent.

It is likely that we will come to a world where software solutions are "grown" by iterations of agent work, and no one will know exactly how it works.

I think this will happen. A quick, low-quality solution is more common than a solution created by a master craftsman.

In addition to low-quality furniture, bad knives, electric kettles that burn out after a week, and poorly cut clothes that don't fit, have unpleasant fabric, and fall apart, there will also be a disposable, rotting code.

Master programmers will remain, just as master craftsmen have remained. They may even continue to earn well. However, there will be fewer of them, and the requirements for their skills, knowledge, and reputation will increase.

I don't know if the author also posts on HN, but you can say thank you to TS, otherwise I wouldn't have seen this post)

Math is difficult for children because for them it's learning a lot of unrelated rules in their head that don't even have a reflection for them in their everyday experience. And these textbooks are trying to create this connection.

Thank you for your work, I am always happy when good books are translated.

SponsorBlock already does this.

why not?

These are quite modest and decent examples

I'm not even talking about entire sections that feature blatantly pornographic or perverted content, some of which are clearly aimed at a younger audience who might accidentally stumble upon it through keywords you wouldn't expect.

The fact that the editor is proprietary does not mean that the promised stability will be present.

However, in open source, you can ensure this stability (and also share the solution with others).

It does not have non-destructive editing layers, color correction layers, indexed palette, posterization, as in Gimp or Krita,

it does not have the ability to draw with higher resolution brushes for subsequent resolution reduction, etc.;

it does not have shader graphs, as in Blender, Pixel Composer, PixelOver;

it is difficult to draw in an indexed palette, unlike PixiEditor,

you can't take 3D renderers and transform them into pixel art, like in PixelOver or Blender,

and there's no bone animation for 2D, like in Spine.

Aseprite is a good editor if you like to paint pixel by pixel every frame without using the advancements and workflows that other style designers and artists use, but calling it the best would be an exaggeration.

If a student knows how to communicate, they can solve this problem: warn the teacher, take a sick leave if they feel they are not ready, and other options.

If they did not do this, they failed the exam on communication with other people.

In addition, we are not always able to make decisions in ideal conditions. We need to learn how to solve problems under pressure, in emotional turmoil, and when we are not feeling well.

Perhaps students should learn this information throughout the semester instead of on the last night or morning before exams?

If your goal is for them to know the entire material, then it makes sense to test their knowledge of the entire course in one exam, which also allows them to study at their own pace and order. If someone is unable to pass the exam or retain all the information, then consider whether you need such professionals.

I'm afraid that if you do this, you won't just stand out among regular users, but you'll actually shine for such llm systems.

There is also a template for different types of notes, which is selected when creating a note in a specific folder or creating it using QuickAdd.:

For example, when I add a link to the author to a book note and use keyboard shortcuts to create a note page for the author, the following template is used:

```md

---

aliases:

  - <%tp.file.title%>

tags:

- t3/books

- people

- t3/author

---

%%

[[<%tp.file.creation_date("YYYY-MM-DD")%>]]

%%

### Works

```base

views:

  - type: table

name: Table

    filters:

      and:

        - file.hasLink("<% tp.file.find_tfile(tp.file.folder(true) + "/" + tp.file.title + ".md").path %>")

- file.hasTag("t3/books") sort:

      - property: file.name

        direction: ASC

```

Tags in metadata do not need the # symbol, although you can use it if you enclose the entire tag in quotation marks.

For myself, I have developed a so-called default template for notes.

```

---

aliases:

  - <%tp.file.title%>

tags:

---

%%

[[<%tp.file.creation_date("YYYY-MM-DD")%>]]

%%

```

<%tp.file.title%> for aliases, it is necessary to always refer to the alias [[note|note alias]] notes in the text (if I refer without a pseudonym, then by accidentally or intentionally changing the name of the note, I can ruin the text in all places where it occurs

Not to mention that many of Iran's problems are caused by several decades of sanctions that are stifling its economy and reducing the quality of life in the country. Why is this being forgotten?

Throughout my life, I have been privy to numerous events that bear striking similarities, particularly in their structural and operational aspects. These incidents, ranging from the protests of June 4, 1989, to the Maidan protests in The Ukraine and the recent unrest in Iran, exemplify a pattern of civic dissent that, while varied in context, shares fundamental characteristics. The Arab Spring, the protests in Russia, and other so-called «orange revolutions» further underscore this trend.

The organization, mobilization, and logistical coordination of such mass protests often involve intricate planning and substantial resources. The financial implications, the recruitment and training of participants, and the management of supply chains are meticulously orchestrated to ensure the effectiveness and sustainability of these movements. It is noteworthy that the presence of provocateurs, aimed at instigating violence and escalating conflict, is a recurring feature, designed to provoke a violent response from authorities and galvanize international attention.

In the case of the Maidan protests, the strategy of employing provocateurs to instigate bloodshed proved relatively successful, leading to a violent crackdown that resonated globally. However, in other instances, particularly where governmental responses were swift and decisive, the opposition movements faced significant setbacks. Nonetheless, even in cases of apparent failure, the opposition often achieves a form of success through public relations victories that can be leveraged for propaganda purposes.

The selective use of information regarding casualties in the Iran protests to justify external intervention by the USA highlights a concerning trend in global political discourse. This pattern suggests that the public, despite witnessing similar events across different geopolitical contexts, fails to draw meaningful conclusions or learn from historical precedents(

Also, if none of the methods helps: Google has completely remove advertising in YouTube videos in Russia.

So you don't even need an ad blocker, just a sponsor block.

By the way, this (Not an extension, but a login from a Ru ip's) removes ads from all other Google services.

try firefox, librewolf, waterfox, chromium. In these browsers I had ublock origin (lite for chromium), adguard and NoScript (And/Or Privacy Badger) on my phone and PC, I didn't see any ads at all. I use the unhook and enhancer extensions with them)

What do subscription password managers do compared to free managers, such as keepass + device-to-device synchronization, so that people are willing to pay even 1 penni, let alone $72?

Why do most people need large language models?

And as far as I understand, the main contingent of HN is engineers, programmers, and even me, who works in a country (Russia) where the salary of an engineer is just tiny compared to Europe or the United States, it was not difficult to buy powerful enough equipment to run most large local models, train lora, then programmers who earn income in six-digit dollars it's even easier to do this.

Just create another Google account. I don't remember there being any restrictions for this. Every time the service required a Google account to log in or it was easier than registering and going through the checks, I just created a new Google account and registered.

It's also the best place to subscribe to artists and generally find them.

It's also strange that this is not mentioned, but in X it's easy to customize the feed for yourself and block what you don't like. I only see what I'm interested in, and I've never come across any content lately that I'm not happy with.
