Sam Odio: Real Person or Anybots (robot) prototype? ;)
- dpapathanasiou 19y agoI'm in awe (in a good way) that every time I check into News.YC, I see that Sam Odio has just submitted several links and commented on many more... Is Sam a real person or is anybots about to release something amazing? Actually, I think it's the former, but can't resist a bit of good-natured ribbing... now close that browser and do something productive! ;)
- RyanGWU82 19y agoAlas, Sam is real. He mooched off my couch for three days last month. Although, my electric bill was rather high that month. Maybe he wasn't sleeping, he was recharging. ;-)
- wammin 19y agoHaha, I have actually met Sam several times, slept on the floor of his apartment once or twice, almost crashed his Segway, took his money playing poker, and got drunk with him, so I can vouch for his existence. At one point he actually wrote one or two lines of code for Wamily, but was always on YC news all the time we had to let him go. (kidding about that last part)
- danielha 19y agoMost of us just submit and post under the shared Sam_Odio account.
- hotstufff 19y agoYou should stop because Sam is one sketchy person and it decreases the credibility of whatever you are saying. http://news.ycombinator.com/comments?id=22812 http://news.ycombinator.com/comments?id=22812
- maxklein 19y agoI can confirm that Sam is indeed mostly metal. When he walks, you can hear his balls of steel clanking.
- vlad 19y agoSam is the best submitter of front page TechCrunch articles I have ever seen.
- staunch 19y agoYou know you've been on news.yc too long when...someone submits a question asking if you're an automaton -- and other curious users mod it up.

- Sam_Odio 19y agoBah. Fooling google into my existence is AI 101. It only took a week for trevor to program lifelike profile creation capabilities into me. Programming my witty sense of humor, however, is taking longer. He's been working on it for the last 6 years; and my jokes still fall flat.
- create_account 19y agoYou can't believe everything you read on the internets.
- hotstufff 19y agoSam Odio is a scam artist. He's trying to sell Iraqi Dinars - see the full post at http://news.ycombinator.com/comments?id=22812 http://news.ycombinator.com/comments?id=22812 How shady is that?
- nickb 19y agoLess posting, more coding! ;)
