This feels less like scientific integrity and more like predatory marketing. I find this public "shame list" approach by GPTZero deeply unethical and technically suspect for several reasons: 1. Doxxing disguised as specific critic

You are missing the point. This isn't "storing result on disk." In high-performance engineering, if the input is static and known at build time, the only correct optimization is pre-computation. I didn't simply "ski

I just withdrew my application over this test. It forces an engineering anti-pattern: requiring runtime calculation for static data (effectively banning O(1) pre-computation). When I pointed out this contradiction via email, they ignored me

Hi HN, author here. I built this project because I wanted to understand the low-level mechanics of LLMs and how FFI overhead differs between languages. Some key takeaways: Architecture: It's a 6.9B MoE model implemented purely in Rust,

You’re quoting the Gospel of Stallman while the temple is burning. Stallman talked about the cost of distribution; I’m talking about the cost of creation. In the age of LLMs, 'market share' is a joke when the infrastructure provid

I’d gladly pay $100 for a compiler if it meant my life's work wasn't strip-mined for $0 by the companies providing the 'free' tools. A free pen is no consolation for the theft of the novel written with it. You're mi

A charming historical reference. However, using 1989 logic to justify the 'cognitive looting' of 2026 is like refusing to patch a kernel vulnerability because you're fond of the legacy code. Back then, the battle was over har

Typical HN response: pivoting to a pedantic debate about licenses to avoid the actual ethical crisis. Whether I use GPL, MIT, or a custom Copyleft, it doesn't solve the Cognitive Tax problem. Licensing doesn't fix the fact that a

That’s a lot of words to admit you need an LLM to process my exam. Using an AI to prove I'm an AI? The irony is delicious. It seems your own cognitive capacity is so bottlenecked that you can’t verify the math without a chatbot’s summa

Thanks for asking! You nailed it with "vim and vigor." The core philosophy is a paradigm shift from Statistical Pattern Matching (current LLMs) to Analytical Mechanics as Optimization. Instead of predicting tokens based on probabi
