Correct; my bad! And hey, Xena! (And thank you very much!)

I checked Xe's profile when I hadn't seen them post here for a while. According to that, they're not really using HN anymore.

Ohai! I'm working on dataset poisoning. The early prototype generates vapid LinkedIn posts but future versions will be fully pluggable with WebAssembly.
- n1xis10t 10mo ago
  That sounds fun, I look forward to reading a writeup about that
  - xena 10mo ago
    So I can plan it, how much detail do you want? Here's what I have about the prototype: https://anubis.techaro.lol/docs/admin/honeypot/overview https://anubis.techaro.lol/docs/admin/honeypot/overview

      Probably any detail that you think is cool, I would be interested in reading about. When in doubt err on the side of too much detail. That was a good read. I hadn’t heard of spintax before, but I’ve thought of doing things like that. Also “pseudoprofound anti-content”, what a great term, that’s hilarious!

      This is amazing, I was just wondering about if it's possible to tie anubis together with iocaine, but it seems you already thought of that.
      - xena 10mo ago
        It's slightly different in subtle ways. If I recall iocaine makes you configure a subprocess that it executes to generate garbage. One rule I have for Anubis in the code is that fork()/exec() are banned. So the pluggable garbage generator is gonna be powered by CGI handlers compiled to WebAssembly. It should be fun!

  Hi Xena! Your blog is amazing! Didn't realize you're working on Anubis - it's a really nice tool for the internet! Reminds me a bit of the ye' olde internet for some reason.

  You've made one of the best solutions, that matched what I thought of implementing myself, and at the time it was most needed. I think a couple of "thank you" are sorely missing in this comment section. Thank you!

  Now I'm picturing an AI trained exclusively on LinkedIn posts. One could probably sell that model to an online ad agency for a pretty penny.

what do people use to get keyword alerts in HN?
- n1xis10t 10mo ago
  I think that most people don't do this, and the ones that do have custom solutions. Xena's uses cron, but that's all I know. It's probably a custom shell script.
