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…

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.

True, it is just speculation. 'Any' seems to be a strong qualifier. One of the reasons I troll landscape of HN is that some of the thoughts and recommendations expressed here ended…

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 …

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 unde…

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…

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 mot…

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…

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 ), l…

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 deriv…

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…

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 …

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. Separ…

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…

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 t…

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…

I am not aware if that exists yet, but the challenge I see with it is rather simple: you get overwhelmed with information really quickly. In other words, you would still need human…

Thank you for saying this. I briefly wondered if my particular company is just way behind or particularly dysfunctional and disorganized ( a possibility for sure ). I do agree with…

While I agree and even accept this answer in theory, I have a hard time putting it in practice. Just today it seems I unnecessarily ruffled some executive feathers by pointing out …

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 bet…

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 i…

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 cons…

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 nece…
