Reading old IRC or ICQ logs from 2001 can be quite fun though, brings back some memories.
- mruts 8y agoMine got me interviewed by the FBI. So there are some downsides :p
- StyloBill 8y agoI'd love to know more about this story! Care to elaborate?
- mruts 8y agoFortunately my name isn't associated with this HN account. So I suppose I can comment about the situation. Me and a bunch of other people met online and talked about programming, hacking, etc. All of us were teenagers at the time. One of the people, who I considered a good friend, turned out to be this guy: https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/us-identifies-suspect-in-major-leak-of-cia-hacking-tools/2018/05/15/5d5ef3f8-5865-11e8-8836-a4a123c359ab_story.html https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/us-id... They found the logs of our IRC conversations over a period of 5 years and found a bunch of incriminating stuff (just teenagers shooting the shit, trashing people, and talking about hacking and stuff)
- tgragnato 8y agoEDIT: domain removed It's unpleasant to know a bunch of people read your private stuff. TBH, the username is pretty similar
- fernandotakai 8y agomy group of friends have a 4 year old telegram group chat. i downloaded all the history, put it into a markov chain library and now we have a bot that can generate random phrases (some, absurdly hilarious) based on our own conversations.
- newscracker 8y agoSounds interesting. Is your bot available for others to use (source or orherwise)?
