Well, your opinion is literally illegal.

You're legally (and technically) prohibited from re-programming GPS modules, GSM modules, and probably many stuff in cars as well.

(Actually, maybe contractually when it comes to GPS modules.)

IANAL but I don’t think OP is breaking any laws by having an opinion on this subject. [At least in the US] pretty much all opinions are completely legal.

Something I've noticed that I never really see called out is how easy it is to review rust code diffs. I spent a lot of my career maintaining company internal forks of large open source C programs, but recently have been working in rust. The things I spent a lot of time chasing down while reviewing C code diffs, particularly of newer team members, is if they paid attention to all the memory assumptions that were non-local to the change they made. Eg. I'd ask them "the way you called this function implies it _always_ frees the memory behind that char*. Is that the case?" If they didn't know the answer immediately I'd be worried and spend a lot more time investigating the change before approving.

With rust, what I see is generally what I get. I'm not worried about heisenbug gotchas lurking in innocent looking changes. If someone is going to be vibe coding, and truly doesn't care about the language the product ends up in, they might as well do it in a language that has rigid guardrails.

How do LLMs deal with Rust (compared to other languages)? I think this might actually be the time to finally give the language a try. LLMs really lowered the barrier for staying productive while learning.

To me it sounds like someone who doesn't know a lot about physics is trying to mock some theories.

It’s an embarrassingly confused take. Ughh. Here I was hoping for some good arguments. The non-MWT fans always have this weird religious-ish vibe.

The author’s inability to imagine a model that’s superficially useful but dangerously misaligned betrays their lack of awareness of incredibly basic AI safety concepts that are literally decades old.

Sounds like the board also somehow works inside a mini-itx chassis or something?

Given it's a Framework 13 mainboard, you can probably put it in any Framework 13-compatible enclosure:

etc., lots of designs available.

If you find these pictures distressing, you might want to consider consciously and carefully exposing yourself to more of the same to build a minimal amount of tolerance. I’m pretty sure it’s literally impossible to go through life without experiencing (sometimes personally) medical conditions that are significantly more visually unpleasant. I’m not a huge fan of the meat-creature-universe we all rolled, but it literally is what it is.

This is exactly right. Attention is all you need. It's all about attention. Attention is finite.

The more you data load into context the more you dilute attention.

people who criticize LLMs for merely regurgitating statistically related token sequences have very clearly never read a single HN comment

I fully agree that this is what's happening. I'm quite convinced after about a year of using all these tools via the "pro" plans that all these companies are throttling their models in sophisticated ways that have a poorly understood but significant impact on quality and consistency.

Gpt-5.1-* are fully nerfed for me at the moment. Maybe they're giving others the real juice but they're not giving it to me. Gpt-5-* gave me quite good results 2 weeks ago, now I'm just getting incoherent crap at 20 minute intervals.

Maybe I should just start paying via tokens for a hopefully more consistent experience.

Such a simple concept, and for some reason so difficult to grasp for certain people. Usually the ones not coming across as particularly empathetic or open-minded.
