  1. I wish there were a site like Hacker News but with better curation.

    One rule that is violated by much of what reaches the front page there is a timeless one:

    "Just because you can do a thing does not mean you should."

  9. “I’ve been meanwhile watching these #AI companies attempt, successfully, to sell this capability as some sort of robot consciousness hand-crafted by supergeniuses.

    The fact that they are getting away with it is almost as shocking to me as the discovery itself.” — malwrar on #HN

  11. “OpenAI is offering $2M in #tokens to every #YC company in the spring and summer batches.

    We extended the summer deadline to May 25 so more #founders can get in on it.” — <x.com/ycombinator/status/20575>

    From your favourite “Orange site”, tokens.

    If you capture #startup founders, you capture the future. Are founders aware of ‘user capture’ through API’s? Have founders not learned from news about Sam, ie OpenAI?

    Do they listen to #PG?

  18. Thought provoking quote on the “why” of design (in reaction to Claude Design) by #HN user pilgrim0:

    news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4

    ending with this :

    _“ I feel sorry for anyone that will think using tools equals doing design, because of the truly marvelous human experiences that they’ll miss, and that could never be replaced by the shallow pride of empty achievement.”_
