Seems like an interesting idea - is it only tactics in scope or has does the AI also do well at analyzing strategic ideas?
Some other thoughts:
Isn't the first example just wrong? The AI says "after dxe3 Rxd8 Rxd8, white wins the exchange, gaining a Rook for a Bishop" but unless I am mistaken actually it's a Queen for a Rook and Bishop?
Also, it seems the visual highlight AI referenced is not working? Talks about Rad1 while the pawn is still highlighted.
It will do both tactics and strategy. Also working on incorporating positional concepts.
Yes you are right. It is still in demo phase, it still does make mistakes. I am refining the model and inputs, so definitely a work in progress :)
Regarding the circle highlighting, the agent is deciding / reasoning which square to highlight. So it is non-determinsitic, so it is sometimes right / wrong.
It will definitely get better as the models improve
It's interesting to me though because I can see a human getting confused similarly.
IIRC when I played Pokemon a while back someone told me you could get a valuable item (Leftovers) by checking the garbage can on one ship in one game, and as a result when I played I checked every garbage can in case there was a hidden valuable item in there. I'm not even sure if Leftovers was obtained in the same way in the game I was playing.
I also don't really see why this is a positive. If you have too much in a file, then split it off? It doesn't fundamentally add or subtract and complexity either way.
I think Svelte likely has a lot of benefits over React but I feel like this is a negative. It's easier for locally of code to keep related components together, and they can always be put into their own files later.
According to the article you linked, that was debated even at the time:
> PC Magazine Editor in Chief Lance Ulanoff criticized the campaign's use of the term "PC" to refer specifically to IBM PC compatible, or Wintel, computers, noting that this usage, though common, is incorrect, as the Macintosh is also a personal computer.
But it's not the PC(the IBM 5150) or one of it's inheritor machines.
To be honest I agree with you, If it is intended as a personal computer it's a PC. Yes tablets and phones(Pocket Computer???) included. But I understand the argument that a PC is a specific architecture. it's a wrong argument, but I get it.
> Are people really so obsessed with having everything in their smartphones? I never had an urge to "pay with a smartphone".
I see these types of comments around HN a lot -
what's your point? Anything useful to you personally has value and that everything else must be stupid?
One time I misplaced my wallet before a flight (it fell off my desk into a position that camouflaged perfectly with its surroundings. Even after I got home from the trip it took me a day before I spotted it). Thanks to the ability to pay with a smartphone I was still able to go on my trip with no problem. I don't do it often, but I was grateful that I had the ability to in that situation.
My argument goes deeper actually. Every form of smartphone and smartwatch payment or wallet usually boils down to some form Visa/Mastercard card incorporated in it. I simply don't feel like feeding this duopoly with my personal habits. It has some use cases at times, I don't deny.
Bun doesn't even support a way to check types, just remove them.
> Note — Similar to other build tools, Bun does not typecheck the files. Use tsc (the official TypeScript CLI) if you're looking to catch static type errors.
A deadline is a business decision. An engineer makes a tradeoff (incurring tech debt) in order to meet the business goal. How is this remotely an ethics issue?
