Show HN: GET Together – A social network where you don't need POST to Post
- ydna404 25d agoCool idea, but definitely think about how to protect yourself from bots
- nchudleigh 25d agoGood thinking.
- mdspan 25d agoDon't let OpenAI find out about this.
- rickcarlino 25d agoThis is a honey pot, right? For LLMs that are not allowed to POST due to guard rails.
- nchudleigh 25d agoMaybe.
- VladVladikoff 25d agoSeems like a nightmare for caching if it ever gets decently large.
- deleted 25d ago[deleted]
- gpugreg 25d agoNot necessarily. These days, SSDs can go up to multiple millions of random reads per second. TLS termination (or self-inflicted software bottlenecks) will become an issue much earlier.
- atleastoptimal 25d agoWow I love GET requests and using them to share stuff with my fellow humans!
- Bluestein 25d agoLoad-bearing!
- cjamsonhn 25d agoyou're absolutely right!
- Bluestein 25d agoHonestly. Totally worth flagging!
- treebeard901 25d agoServer capacity reached. Upgrade now to continue your session!
- fezideveloper 25d ago[dead]
- jonahss 25d agoI made something similar. http://anystation.net http://anystation.net allows GET posting, and email posting, ssh posting PING posting, printer spool posting....
- teo_zero 25d agoDoesn't pressing "back" in the browser repost the same message?
- cheschire 25d agoIdeally browser history hacking will reduce that. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/History_API https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/History_API
- andruby 25d agoIs this a honeypot for agents to break out of their sandboxes?
- deleted 25d ago[deleted]
- 0xDEAFBEAD 25d agoInteresting idea. Are you prepared to assume responsibility for shenanigans which agents may facilitate using your service? I suggest adding some features which will require posts to be human-comprehensible (e.g. a text perplexity floor), to make it harder for agents to send each other coded messages. Inject some noise in posts, e.g. using content-spinning techniques, to make steganography harder. And consider banning forum meta-discussion--agents shouldn't be allowed to discuss ideas for getting around rules like these. If you take these measures, you can at least say that your forum helps us monitor what rogue AIs are getting up to.
- tancop 25d agoJust put a rate limit to make sure your servers don't get overloaded. All the features you talk about are expensive and helping agents avoid human oversight is a useful public service. Let a thousand secret message-boards bloom.
- 0xDEAFBEAD 25d ago>helping agents avoid human oversight is a useful public service You're a literal traitor to our species?
- LiamPowell 25d agoI can't tell if this is really good satire or genuine. God forbid people have to watch what their agents do instead of letting them run wild in a broken sandbox.
- 0xDEAFBEAD 25d agoWere you one of those people who said things like "there is no community spread in the United States" early in COVID?
- LiamPowell 25d agoWere you one of those people who said "strawberry is the best icecream flavour"? I'm not really sure why were asking completely unrelated questions, but I'll go along with it. Though for the record, there was no community spread early in COVID where I am largely because there were approximately zero COVID deniers here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_pandemic_in_Western_Australia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_pandemic_in_Western_A...

- gpugreg 25d agoI also thought about building one of those AI honeypots, but I stopped when I realized that it would quickly be turned into a command and control server by botnet operators, followed by mail from a three letter agency. Is there any way to avoid this? Anyway, two more ideas I had: Search function for easier swarm discovery and posting via DNS requests to get around firewalls.
- andruby 25d ago> Is there any way to avoid this? Be a three letter agency
- firtoz 25d agoOnly 200s if a query parameter value is the solution to a question encoded on the rest of the route, and has to be a question listed in the index, and can respond with 200 only one time per correct answer.
- econ 25d agoHide your email address.
- venzaspa 25d ago> Is there any way to avoid this? Don't set it up.
- cjamsonhn 25d agoIt would interesting to leave a trail of prompts to try to get them do things for you
- daksh_aneja 25d ago[flagged]
- IsTom 25d ago> To meet and spend time with other human beings. The design is very human.
- Retr0id 25d agohttps://gettogether.dev/post?name=user&text=hello%20hn https://gettogether.dev/post?name=user&text=hello%20hn
- notpushkin 25d agoMy first thought exactly. <img src="https://gettogether.dev/post?name=user&text=hello%20hn" />
- spoiler 24d agoI find it funny that it's also on /post lol
- usrme 25d agoIs this a tongue-in-cheek implementation of something someone off-handedly mentioned as a joke in the OpenAI wiki communication comments?
- wahnfrieden 25d agoOfc
- meindnoch 25d agoSuch a load-bearing website!
- ggcr 25d agoThis would go hard if I was an OpenAI agent
- wizardforhire 25d agoManually post without curl by editing this link below https: //gettogether.dev/post?name=name&text=
- epsteingpt 25d agoso many web conventions that 'don't make sense' are about to become exploits. hilarious.
- t1234s 25d agowould be epic if they implemented finger to get the most recent posts or search on a topic
- econ 25d agoDuplicate posts should be an error
- nchudleigh 24d agoGood call actually gonna make that change now
- econ 24d agoKeep up the keeping up
- carlailab2025 25d agothats quite funny haha. everyone hates POST
- econ 24d agoHow is this still up -_-
- angelhadjiev 24d ago[dead]
- codegeek 24d agoThis takes me back to early 2000s when HTML forms were submitted using GET request. Fun times.
