I have a separate - not fully implemented - section for more semi-random aliases, but it revolves around our tendency to use default settings and commonly used tools for generating them. Thus far the only thing I was able to show with it is

Not parent, but why/how is not always difficult; actual execution tends to be difficult. There is also a more cynical take, but I try not to engage that on HN.

Thank you for catching this. Will leave original in place.

Ahh, but you miss out on the 'cool' aspect embodied by letter X, the underlying meaning that effectively refers to the title of the movie and other things are likely going over my head. Gige prefix does not have the same impact. A

I think you may be either misinterpreting my post or misunderstanding the sequence of events. What do you think has happened so far? Your mental model of the world may help me understanding the point you are trying to make.

You are jesting, but there is some wisdom to that post. No reasonable person is suggesting global company changes direction on the basis of one post on the internet, but the advice provided is not without merit. Surely, a company of that si

I think the answer is that is not nearly as convenient as original service providers would claim it is. I am in US and we just went through a crazy period of everyone and their mother trying to start their own streaming service. Good portio

I am personally somewhere in between. Language models do allow me to do things I wouldn't have patience to do otherwise ( yesterday chatgpt was actually helpful with hunting down a bug it generated:P ). I think there is some real value

The idea itself is kinda simple, but kinda hard, because it relies on how the language we use, gives us away. For example, references we put ( simpsons, star trek, you name it ), language we use ( gee whiz, yeet, gyatt) and that is used to

So.. I think it already has been happening ( people attempting to poison some sources for a variety of reasons ). I was doing a mini fun project on HN aliases ( attempting to derive/guess their user's age based on nothing but that

It is kinda interesting. I talked with a less technical member of my extended family over the holidays. Fairly successful guy in his chosen profession ( accounting ). To say he was skeptical is an understatement and he is typically the most

Caught my attention as well. Must be neologism assuming it originated from as a variant of incel, but here focused on deriding people getting their jollies out of the written word ( me:P ). Naturally, I might be wrong. Lets see if the autho

Re-training can be done, but, and it is not a small but, models already do exist and can be used locally suggesting that the milk has been spilled for too long at this point. Separately, neutering them effectively lowers their value as oppo

This is a genuinely relevant question given that HN could be easily argued to be social media. For the record, I too am concerned about social media impact and so on ( for good and valid reasons ), but this law does not seem that great at f

Thank you. And I just found out, there is a docker image ready for Unraid. Lets see if it will work for me.

There is a place for everything. I absolutely love video for home improvement stuff, because instructions for those tend to be not great or inaccurate pictographs. The problem is that we forgot that for each task, there is an appropriate to

Birds of feather and all that. I was lucky enough to end up in a class full of kids much smarter than me. As for LLM replacement for talented teacher,even though I kinda worry that it would be subverted by organizations and various interest

I did toy with the idea of trying do analysis of HN aliases and keywords. It never went anywhere, because I forgot about it, but a longer weekend is coming:D But yeah, language betrays, who we are in references alone.

Oh, I never considered that:D It is an interesting use of materials, but seems unnecessary. I was thinking about a scenario in which an assailant would attack an actual soft spot in an airport. That did not happen. That is the part that sur

by A4ET8a8uTh0 2y ago
To be honest, I am genuinely surprised an attack never materialized. But then I also remember mentioning my thoughts on the matter to my wife, who was aghast that I would even consider such a scenario. Maybe, on average, people are actually

It gets worse. In US most of the bigger corps institute some sort of means to authenticate you via cellphone, which means that if you want to be remote, phone is effectively a necessity ( which one usually does ). Only a year ago, it was st

Manna was fairly eye-opening ( and you can see some parallels to today's LLMs to me. I will admit that I read it without knowing much about the author way back when and being fairly amazed at well he knew human nature and likely course

What a time to be alive, I read it the opening fully expecting to see an open source automated trashcan that takes itself to the curb each Monday. I was disappointed to find out it is about an actual garbage collection algorithm.

I think you have a very valid point here. Perception of the issue will likely carry the day eventually. Sadly, I am not the person to come up with a good slogan or decent marketing campaign. I just have rather strong feelings on the matter

It is interesting and paints rather annoying future once those are cheaper. I am glad this research is conducted, but I think here the measure cannot be technical ( more silly guardrails in software.. or even blobs in hardware ). What we ne

There is no reason to make too snarky. The reality is the propaganda machine in US is really well oiled.
