Oh, that didn't cross my mind. Yes, that's a serious potential.
Take it a few more steps and then you get to automated analysis tools, system simulations, and NLP systems. This looks essentially like IronMan's Jarvis running heuristics interactively.
"Which edge cases did you cover?"
`I covered 3000 edge cases extrapolated from these bug reports...`
This is a possibility, but it presents a problem. In order to be a senior enough engineer to review PRs really well, you need years of practical experience. Those years start out in entry level jobs where you make lots of mistakes and learn by doing. But these are the very jobs that AI is most likely to eliminate first. So the first AIs will have good PR reviewers that were “classically trained”. Who will review the PRs of AI 50 years from now?
Great observation. Reminds me of this article[] about how surgeons are having a hard time getting experience with the rise of robotics.
It may be that this training will need to get pushed to the education system (whatever that looks like by that point).
Additionally, there can be a mentorship model where the junior performs the first pass of reviews and iterations before presenting to the senior.
Think Star Trek: how does anyone learn to fly a spaceship? Lots of simulation and running smaller parts of the system in close observation... which isn't too different from now.
I was once interested in how self publishing actually works so I spent an hour or two putting a pdf together with Chuck Norris facts that I found on the internet and published it as a paperback. The book is still up for sale, I've made more than $10,000 from it.
Not quite - the screenshots being circulated show an account with a different name that visually looks quite similar. Instead of a lowercase `l`, the suspended account has an uppercase `I`. In many fonts, these end up looking quite similar.
looks at weather report for southern france for this week
That’s a very mild summer, I’m located in Southern California where my nights are warmer than your peak day temperatures. During daytime it can be over 45 degrees Celsius. But ACs are everywhere so it makes it livable. I’m guessing most homes in Europe don’t have that.
Indeed, AC in private homes is still relatively rare. Of course, in recent years it became more fashionable. Also, a lot of houses in the traditional hot regions of Europe are built to be livable without air conditioning. In my eyes, he biggest impact in recent years has been to the traditionally more moderate regions, where there is no AC and houses or clothing and social habits are not tuned for hot temperatures. In Germany, it was almost welcomed to feel to hot for the very few hot days (if any) it had through the year. Nowadays, we definitely have hotter and more intense summers.
The parts separated from the coast by mountains are very dry.
Also because the water off the coast is cold, it never gets very hot and humid at the same time anywhere in the western US. For that you need to be near a large body of very warm water.
Specifically, in all of the west coast of the US except the bottom quarter of CA (where the ocean is a little warmer) the weather is cool and humid when the wind is blowing from the west (which it is most of the time) and dry and potentially very hot when it is blowing from the east.
Well, it is a little more complicated than that because every morning the sun heats the land, but not the ocean, which causes wind to flow from ocean to land, then every evening that flow is reversed, so my previous statement refers to the general flow of air masses in the absence of this diurnal coastal wind.

It is not a competition, you know? There’s nothing to win if you have the worst climate.
> I’m guessing most homes in Europe don’t have that
No, and that is a good thing because AC for whole cities in arid regions is a big part of why we are in this situation in the first place. California is pretty much the illustration of how not to build a country.
Over and over again I'm drawn back to this centuries old Stoic principle: stop worrying about things that you can't control. Because, like this article mentions, most things are outside of your control.
I've just tested this by clicking on one of the notes in the Twitter app: it opens up an ugly webview which I'm not logged into... and it's suggesting to download and use the app for a better experience (I was already on the app!).
Indeed, especially when you compare with a company such as Supabase (which is working on way less interesting technology imho) who just raised $80M: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31328783
Deno probably would have raised $80M if they'd raised the same time Supabase did. Investors got quite a bit more tight fisted between January and April.
You may have luck by emailing the CEO and asking politely. I wrote a comment previously (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30692202) about how I got immediate access to Codespaces by emailing the GitHub CEO.
