The OG hacker news website doesn't even have a downvote button? I notice the upvote is just a hyperlink to `voteid=__&how=up&auth=__&goto=reply__` So do they just curl `vote?id=__&how=down&auth=__&goto=reply__`

Over 100 people upvoted this but nobody has any thoughts? I will share one. It is a negative side effect of capitalism that monetary power controls information flow.

I agree this is really bad but far from unbelievable. I am only 23 and already my SSN and even my freaking DNA have both been leaked by major publicly traded companies.

So it is two articles that both ultimately source from NYT? They are not commonly flat out incorrect, and when they are tend to correct the record. So I would say your statement is hyperbole and wrong. NYT sources are likely quite a bit mor

Good point, that's fair there are more use cases. IDK about architecture, typically you want more structure/determinism instead of probabilistic generation. Overall this is very cool. I like the consistency it has and it does gene
