Yes, it is wrong. Take the top one: > We rewrote it in Rust so you have to upvote it I'm pretty sure they didn't go through all the trouble of rewriting it in Rust to get some internet forum points!

Same question and great work. I would love to know the prompt details of how the hacker news truth was captured
Yes, this is absolutely brilliant! Teach us the prompt, o great wizards!
I want you to rewrite this headline "Amazon will allow ePub and PDF downloads for DRM-free eBooks"
into something a little humorous and snarky that reveals the underlying truth that would bring a
wry smile to tech-engaged but big tech-skeptical hacker news readers.
This has to fit in the 80 character limit for Hacker News so keep it appropriately short.
Also I want you to reply with exactly one headline and not anything else so I can use your output
as part of a processing pipeline
and i get the response Amazon Finally Remembers eBooks Aren’t Supposed to Be Prisoners
which I think is great. I started with the first paragraph and got something too long with some explanation. I added the second, and got three replies and more explanation. The three replies were all "good enough" in my mind but added the third paragraph to control the output.Re: Hacker News front page now, but the titles are honest
#93How did you get an LLM to be snarky or did you do something else?

#94OK, so the "Storing data in the network ... " title made me remember something. If you transmit a message to Mars, say a rover command sequence, and the outgoing buffer is deleted on the sending side (the original code is preserved, but the transmission-encoded sequence doesn't stick around), then that data, for 20-90 minutes, exists nowhere _except_ space. It's just random-looking electrical fluctuations that are pr…
So if we can somehow preserve the signal and make it go round and round, can we get long term storage out of nothing?

Tom 7 did something reminiscent of this if you hadn't seen already: https://youtu.be/JcJSW7Rprio.

There hasn't been since n-gate stopped posting.
Comparing this with n-gate really shows the difference between AI and real work. Superficially, they're the same, but digging in shows the real difference.
