Arguably, a more interesting, revealing, and kinder question is; "What have you been curious about?".

I feel a looking-back-to-curiosity exercise has power to shed light on where to look ahead (and why to do it). More so, I feel it has power to grant permission to that "insatiably curious thirteen year old self" to step out and play. Because it probably already has been up to something, while your attention was elsewhere.

So, here is a prompt (see what I just did there? ;-))

Um... Except for LLM stuff, if you please. Just for this thread. Because these days the plurality of HN discussion appears to be about the curiosities of LLMs.

In this particular case, the article seems to be real AI slop: it creates a nonsensical benchmark to compare two tools and uses that to plug the company's product. The people commenting are right to point it out.

The problem with the repeated complaining about AI slop is that it makes browsing HN tiring for two reasons: the community is failing to filter low-quality content, and on top of that we end up with a barrage of similar-looking complaints in the comment section.

Both of these problems could be solved with one single action: flag articles that are in clear violation of the HN guidelines and move on.

The quicker these AI slop articles get flagged, the lower the chance they get to show up in the front-page and the less incentive there will be for vibe-bloggers to push their crap here.","time":1785340093,"title":"Ask/Tell HN: use the flag button instead of complaining about AI slop articles","type":"story"}],[49063556,{"by":"soywod","descendants":6,"id":49063556,"kids":[49066006,49072533,49065700,49067355,49069812,49064319,49191264,49177758,49151774,49064060,49065210,49206385,49093982,49163639,49119865,49105862,49079627,49064745],"score":6,"text":"I used to know people who switched from Rust to Zig, and swore they would never go back to Rust.
