Because it turns out that HN is mostly made up of cranky middle-aged conservatives (small c) who have largely defined themselves around coding, and AI is an existential threat to their core identity.

I’d put more faith in HN’s proclamations if it hadn’t widely been wrong about AI in 2023, 2024, and now 2025. Watching the tone shift here has been fascinating. As the saying goes, the only thing moving faster than AI advances right now is the speed at which HN haters move the goalposts…

I’ve been reading this comment multiple times a week for the last couple years. Constant assertions that we’re starting to hit limits, plateau, etc. But a cursory glance at where we are today vs a year ago, let alone two years ago, makes it wildly obvious that this is bullshit. The pace of improvement of both models and tooling has been breathtaking. I could give a shit whether you think it’s “exponential”, people like you were dismissing all of this years ago, meanwhile I just keep getting more and more productive.

This comment is legitimately hilarious to me. I thought it was satire at first. The list of what has happened in this field in the last twelve months is staggering to me, while you write it off as essentially nothing.

Different strokes, but I’m getting so much more done and mostly enjoying it. Can’t wait to see what 2026 holds!

People who dislike LLMs are generally insistent that they're useless for everything and have infinitely negative value, regardless of facts they're presented with.

Anyone that believes that they are completely useless is just as deluded as anyone that believes they're going to bring an AGI utopia next week.

I'm a heavy user of ChatGPT, and this is exactly why I haven't switched. I frequently search my old chats, or pick up one I started weeks or even months ago.

What a weird comment. I think that probably most Americans, like most people of any nationality, could give two shits if people elsewhere find their accent hard to understand, or “awful”.

Hollywood movies specifically target a global audience and not just a domestic one.

The US is only at most 30% of Hollywood revenue.

Haha, sounds like we’re still winning despite the “awful” accent.

Hope you find some peace with it!

Imagine how much they would "win" if they got rid of their chauvinism and properly catered to their audience.

Though I'm not sure why you're personally getting pride out of global corporations making money.

That’s interesting. I wonder if the models will improve on these kinds of tiny niches?

I currently prefer Cursor to CC, does Superset play well with Cursor too? Is this a replacement for their work tree feature?

I haven’t setup worktrees yet, so if I have a quick task while working in main, I currently just spin up another agent in plan mode, and then execute them serially. In parallel would be really nice though. I often have 5-10 agents with completed plans, and I’m just slogging through executing them one at a time.

So if one guy at one Audi dealership gives you the wrong info, then Tesla makes a better car than Audi?

Makes sense.

If that's the actual salesman? And the reason for asking is that it's not clear how that works

Yes...
