sumeno··on Show HN: Stop paying for Dropbox/Google Drive, use your own S3 bucket instead
Why wouldn't I trust a vibe coded app that has existed for 1 week with all my important data?
sumeno··on AI may be making us think and write more alike
Good luck finding a company that doesn't have these people if LLMs are used
sumeno··on Wikipedia's AI agent row likely just the beginning of the bot-ocalypse
> The use of LLMs to generate or rewrite article content is prohibited

I'm not a wikipedia editor, but I assume this applies to bots as well

sumeno··on Ask HN: How do systems (or people) detect when a text is written by an LLM
You're absolutely right! I unintentionally used an en-dash instead of an em-dash. Here is the em-dash you requested: –
sumeno··on Sam Altman may control our future – can he be trusted?
Betteridge strikes again
sumeno··on Caveman: Why use many token when few token do trick
LLMs don't understand what they are doing, they can't explain it to you, it's just creating a reasonable sounding response
sumeno··on The threat is comfortable drift toward not understanding what you're doing
Faster doesn't always mean better. I've "learned" things from LLM really fast, but I don't retain the information the same way as if I had taken my time to really work through it
sumeno··on The threat is comfortable drift toward not understanding what you're doing
That's what the program he just took was supposed to be for, learning not output. You've just reinvented the article from first principles, congrats
sumeno··on The OpenAI graveyard: All the deals and products that haven't happened
He tried and messed that up too
sumeno··on Show HN: Real-time dashboard for Claude Code agent teams
So many comment sections on these vibe coded Show HNs are just full of obvious bots talking to each other in the most generic boring way.
sumeno··on TurboQuant KV Compression and SSD Expert Streaming for M5 Pro and IOS
At least in the novel example the author had the decency to write what they're asking you to read.

These are more like sending someone who didn't ask you a question a LMGTFY link they didn't ask for and expecting them to read all the results. Just a complete lack of awareness and respect for the maintainers

> if it works it works

If it works in one case that doesn't mean it works consistently or well in the general case

I've made lots of things with Claude Code that just work... until I do things in a slightly different order and the whole thing explodes

sumeno··on The Claude Code Source Leak: fake tools, frustration regexes, undercover mode
> It's useful context unless you've gone over the generated code and understand it and it is the same quality as if you wrote it yourself

If this is not the case you should not be sending it to public repos for review at all. It is rude and insulting to expect the people maintaining these repos to review code that nobody bothered to read.

sumeno··on Claude Code's source code has been leaked via a map file in their NPM registry
No real reason to do that, they say Claude Code is written by Claude, which means it has no copyright. Just use the code directly
sumeno··on I am definitely missing the pre-AI writing era
> my brain has not deteriorated now that i have offloaded that to my phone.

Is there empirical evidence that you haven't? You wouldn't necessarily be the best judge

sumeno··on Universal Claude.md – cut Claude output tokens
If you were Claude you would have no emotions or thoughts about a prompt one way or another
sumeno··on AI got the blame for the Iran school bombing. The truth is more worrying
How many dead from the US's proxy wars?
sumeno··on I built an AI receptionist for a mechanic shop
There is no way to ensure that the AI doesn't guess. You can do all the prompting and RAG you want but sometimes it's just going to make shit up and ignore instructions
sumeno··on Cyberattack on vehicle breathalyzer company leaves drivers stranded in the US
Mugging victims didn't make a choice that endangered a bunch of other people that resulted in them getting mugged. Interlock devices are not given to random people for no reason.
sumeno··on Walmart: ChatGPT checkout converted 3x worse than website
Considering you can't have chat bots be honest even if you don't make them marketing tools I suspect I know which way companies are going to go
sumeno··on What young workers are doing to AI-proof themselves
The only way the people who are only in it for the money leave the industry is if the money gets worse. If the money stays the same why would they leave
sumeno··on Turns out your coffee addiction may be doing your brain a favor
No, only caffeinated

> decaffeinated coffee intake was not associated with lower dementia risk or better cognitive performance

sumeno··on Turns out your coffee addiction may be doing your brain a favor
The studies compared people from the same occupation, so no, that is not likely the reason
sumeno··on Montana passes Right to Compute act (2025)
> Since when did we restrict people's ability to do things?

At least 4000 years ago, but that's just the earliest we have evidence for

sumeno··on John Carmack about open source and anti-AI activists
LLMs are not people. They do not learn the way people do.

Even if they did, if someone memorized copywritten code and then typed it back out that would still be a copywrite violation

sumeno··on Elon Musk pushes out more xAI founders as AI coding effort falters
It's controlled by a guy who spends all day retweeting white supremacists and lying about his companies. Why should anyone who isn't a white supremacist use it?
sumeno··on Elon Musk pushes out more xAI founders as AI coding effort falters
What % of that is owned by employees that aren't named Elon Musk?
sumeno··on John Carmack about open source and anti-AI activists
Are you doing a full search of every GPL licensed repository every time you use an LLM to ensure that it isn't giving you GPL licensed code? That doesn't seem reasonable
sumeno··on John Carmack about open source and anti-AI activists
"in accordance with its license" is the key part that's missing with LLMs. The licenses are completely ignored.
sumeno··on John Carmack about open source and anti-AI activists
> He says it's a gift, and if people do whatever, he doesn't care; he already gave it away.

That's his choice and I assume he licensed his code accordingly. That doesn't mean that the choices of others who used different licenses are invalid.
