How much coding are you doing nowadays vs. AI doing it for you and you reviewing/pushing it into the repo?

Id say 90% AI, I just review it now

Well if you are Ai voice conversation user too you might be able to see that while humans are in motion (walking, driving, running, etc) a screen stops us and or slows us down -- talking to Ai we can continue in motion(in car over speaker or via our earbuds). More safely too especially when driving and when you are talking to your friend on the phone while in various forms of motion they are entertaining you, teaching you, guiding you to your destination and so many other things.

Open Ai has said they want to get us away from screens and I can see benefits some I mentioned above.

Funny looks like Meta beat Open Ai to the punch with a form factor I thought their device should be as seen in my comment below.


Funny I blogged about Open Ai's device and saying that it needed to be a keychain accessory in August.

Did someone at Meta's Reality Lab see my blog ;). He said they only have a few created so far, hmmmm...


It's a AI assistant attached to your keychain?

That's what I thought Open Ai device's form factor should be, blogged about it (mid-August) and posted a link here on Hacker News.

Did someone at Meta read my blog post ;-) he did say they only have a few of them created.


After 17 years as a creative technologist, I’m studying to be a nurse. If you’re a web designer or developer who’s tried Muse and still sees a long-term career, I don’t get it. As tools like ChatGPT and Muse reduce the need to browse the web (Muse even shows you it's browsing the web for you), what will we be designing/developing? Muse already lets anyone create, publish, and host a website for free with no technical skills - just ask it and boom zero skill or effort to create a site. You may think I want my site to look good yet lol not many are going to see it. Now if Meta adds domain registration, your entire online presence could be live in minutes and to update content on your personal or business site just use Muse to do so.

Overall I think the web will just be the storage for our thoughts, businesses/transactions and etc for AI to access. Yet our thoughts/content that AI uses to keep itself relevant we need to be paid for.


Even in the best case scenario, normies wouldn’t want to build everything themselves.

Aside: When did you start studying for nursing? And have you written about your experience so far?


What would they be building .. just tell Ai create and publish a website for my personal thoughts, solo business, mid-size business, etc and call it something like name124.com. Then boom it's done and live on the internet for them to feed content to it via a personal agent like Muse. If humans are getting paid to publish their thoughts/content on the web for Ai to stay relevant and it's super easy Im bet millions would love to be feeding Ai.

Thank you it's on-going and going well. Ai (chatGPT plus) is helping me learn as I feed it my class notes and notes in general. I then have it create multiple choice quizzes I take via voice while driving or when not driving clicking/choosing the answer. I will write more once I further progress as I started school in mid August.


Good luck!

Been using the archive page firefox extension for a year or two. Yet now it looks like a total war against this resource was waged and it's no longer a good resource for archiving.

Anyone know of any good reliable substitutes?


archive.is is the best substitute. For some reason people here won't accept that. They think the internet is still a calm cooperative place like the olden days.

My office's "net nanny" blocks archive.is as a "Russian site". However, archive.ph (use the same link across all the various sites) is not blocked (yet).

"Anyone know of any good reliable substitutes?"

For me, archive.today, archive.is, archive.md, archive.ph, etc. are _not reliable_ for a number of reasons

But some archive.today users who comment on HN cannot seem to accept that archive.today may not work for everybody else

NB. Archive.today is not a "substitute for archive.org". Archive.today does not do www crawls

As for archive.org, I know of a number of alternatives but each is generally less reliable and/or less comprehensive than archive.org

Comman Crawl, i.e., downloads from data.commoncrawl.org, is reasonably reliable but not as comprehensive as archive.org. CC is not a reasonable substitute for archive.org's CDX service. The CC CDX endpoint, index.commoncrawl.org, historically has been easily overwhelmed and unreliable

As for archive.today alternatives (no crawls, only user-submitted URLs), ghostarchive.org seems well-designed but not used much. No CAPTCHA, HTTPS and Javascript are optional and HAR files are provided. Whether it gets blocked like archive.today sites I do not know

NB. Archive.today users may be using archive.today not as an archive but as a lazy man's solution for "paywalls" (Javascript annoyances)

Where that's the case, comparsions to archive.org or other archives that are derived from crawls are inappropriate


> The CC CDX endpoint, index.commoncrawl.org, historically has been easily overwhelmed and unreliable

Use our Parquet index.

It's also worth noting that archive.org downloads all of our crawl data and adds it to the IA Wayback Machine.


Correction: WARC not HAR

* Common

Hmmmmm today is a very different world compared to when we used the Internet to learn how to code. Now with Ai doing all the coding is learning how to code even happenning?

Also, just talked two friends who work for mid-size companies and last week both of their CEOs told them to just point Ai to their Jira tickets to finish all their tasks. Anyone else hearing their CEOs instruct the same thing?


A few software engineer friends' employers are requiring them to point AI (Claude) at Jira tickets to complete their tasks. Are your companies requiring this too, and how effective are the current models at actually completing the work precisely?

This is a thing? So have software engineers been relegated to being the employee at Whole Foods that babysits the self checkout kiosks?

I just saw two facebook friends post about it and asked the OP how successful the latest models are and he said it isnt a mess just some fixes here and there are needed.

I was wondering if other employers are asking their SWE to do the same?


The new Siri UX needs improvement and to match the UX of talking to chatGPT. At least in settings have an option to keep the Siri window always on top (just have a prominent X out to go to the screen below) and always listening ready to continue your conversation like the experience is with chatGPT.

Been running the beta since June -- on the latest beta now and 8 out of ten times to continue the conversation with Siri (most notably in the car with my phone docked) I have to constantly say "Hey Siri."

One thing it's current UX has over chatGPT voice tech as it shows you the text and provides visuals while chatGPT's UI shows no text and or visuals.


Music creation ha that requires a human's raw human form talent not typing into a prompt.

Signed a hobbyist human songwriter who has a hate and minor like for Suno as im not a good singer.
