Same reason you would always see the same top comments on reddit during a certain era.

Supports IPv6 just fine? Absolutely not, they have the worst IPv6 implementation of the 3 large clouds, where many of their products don't support it, such as their Postgres offering. See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44881803 for more.

Yes:

> The challenge with AI in open source security has transitioned from an AI slop tsunami into more of a ... plain security report tsunami. Less slop but lots of reports. Many of them really good.

> I'm spending hours per day on this now. It's intense.

They may be production-ready in some sense but they're not ready to be put in Firefox, and/or they are v8 bindings.

STT services that have been around for longer, like Azure, Google and Amazon, generally require you to request a specific language, and their quality is a lot higher than models that advertise themselves as LLMs (even though I believe the clouds are also using the same types of models now).

If the electric grid cannot keep up with the additional demand, inference may not get cheaper. The cost of electricity would go up for LLM providers, and VCs would have to subsidize them more until the price of electricity goes down, which may take longer than they can wait, if they have been expecting LLM's to replace many more workers within the next few years.

Groq doesn't keep that money, it goes to VCs. They claim the company is "pivoting", not "selling" and avoid the payout trigger.

You do have a point there. I did forget about the [-].

However, I read the comments in hopes they are interesting. If we have a culture where the "I don't know what this thing is"-type comment is popular, people will post those comments more and more. This leads other people to spend their time replying to it, instead of engaging with the content of the article. In other words, it distracts other commenters, who might otherwise have contributed something good.

Second, I think having low value comments is undesirable by itself. We could all start posting "First!" on articles, and everyone who hates that can simply minimize them. I think you can see why that would not be great. We can argue whether this is a low-value comment but I already did that in my original reply: it is not addressed to the article author (in this case they happened to show up but generally they don't) so the complaint doesn't lead to anything, and the comment complains about having to read about a concept they are not familiar with, but does the exact same thing itself.

When can we be done with these cheap comments? It has really become tiring to have a comment tree on every HN post for people who don't know what the article is about. As the author often didn't submit their own article it is just a complaint with no possible resolution. Instead of taking a few seconds to find out what the article is about and maybe even clarifying it for your fellow readers, you are taking that time to write a comment that only detracts from a possible conversation.

If you can't bring yourself to search for 5 seconds and find out what an article is about, maybe you just close it and move on.

You can use Tailscale to connect services together (not just someone's laptop to a service, replacing OpenVPN), but what if Tailscale has an outage? Will my services not be able to find each other anymore?

Your definition what is an ethical issue is reductive. It means the issue involves ethics, and they are obviously involved. Even if ultimately society at large would benefit from the disappearance of certain jobs, that can still create suffering for hundreds of thousands of people.

I'm inclined to believe what 'mitchellh wrote:

"The Liquid Glass effects are not expensive and anyone claiming they are has no idea how modern GPUs and animation work. Anyone saying it is is either just parroting or is an idiot."

It has become a sport here to criticize titles for not explaining any random thing the commenter doesn't know. Generally these things are either in the article or they are very easily findable with a single web search.

RabbitMQ is developed by VMware which was acquired by Broadcom. I hope they will remain unaffected.
