The most important entry I found in my physical copy of the 1911 Britannica is for Eavesdropping[0], detailing the original historical origins of the term and how it was thought about just before our modern era.

> Though the offence of eavesdropping still exists at common law, there is no modern instance of a prosecution or indictment.

Thanks for posting this resource, I've often wanted to share a link to this and other entries.

So excited to see this - the big advantage of 1.58 bits is there are no multiplications at inference time, so you can run them on radically simpler and cheaper hardware.

Fascinating article. I'm genuinely unclear whether the avowedly fictional security team is detailing a real or fictional postmortem.

More people read the Atlantic than read books on college admissions. It is possible and often useful to increase the number of informed people even without adding net new information.

Wow - as a JetBrains customer I've been waiting for JetBrains to show what a good Agentic IDE should look like.

Excited to try it and surprised to find out about it in a random HN comment.

EDIT ADDED: bummer - looks like this only works with API keys, not Claude Pro or Max or similar for Codex

This is so insightfully and powerfully written I had literal chills running down my spine by the end.

What a horrible world we live in where the author of great writing like this has to sit and be accused of "being AI slop" simply because they use grammar and rhetoric well.

Is Bonsai 1 Bit or 1.58 Bit?

Can I drag an email directly onto a Kanban or a Todo list, and prioritize it like a task, and then click on the card or task to go directly to the mail message, in the context of its thread?

It defaults to being a wrapper around git when it's not custom implemented, and it's recommended that you alias nit as git so the agent can work the way it normally would, just faster and cheaper.

Not sure if that's intended as sarcasm. Losing a >$100M asset is far from insignificant.

Apologies if I missed this in the article (or in the first article in the series) - what happens if you add two copies of the layer set? Does performance improve over adding one copy of the layer set?

If you look at convolutional neural nets used in image processing, it's super common for the first layer or so to learn a family of wavelet basis functions. Later layers then do recognition in wavelet space, without that space ever being explained or communicated to the training algorithm.

This work here is obviously more complex than that, but suggests something similar is going on with early layers transforming to some sort of generalized basis functions defining a universal language representation.

For all its flaws, TSA (at least under previous administrations) did a lot of design thinking work around how to streamline flows through airports, minimize travel stress and conflict, and optimize to minimize traveler complaints while continuing to maintain security.

Bringing in shock theater optimized staff is a particularly poor fit for a scenario that will impact a disproportionately voting and bipartisan pool of citizens.

There's a reason advertising in airports is generally targeted at corporate leaders and decision makers.

A video (attaching the sensor, seeing the visualizations) would help significantly.

You may not be familiar with the prevalence of "hormone patches". Absorption through the skin is a common medical delivery method.

Pretty sure if this gets any traction at all, it will immediately turn into a mix of Chatroulette and crypto scams.

How does this compare to cloudflare tunnels?

It's hard to imagine a video that provides less information. 11 seconds. Pixelated to nothing. Why waste our time with that?

>the next step is to combine Archetype 360 with a variation of Holland Codes / RIASEC (vocational interest areas)

Shouldn't the next step be actual validation (which looks nothing like asking people what they think about the reports)?

Without validation, it's just a nice-sounding horoscope.

I'm a huge fan of spec-kit, and am actively looking for a replacement for it because spec-kit is no longer maintained by the team at GitHub.

Codev looks like it has a lot of good similarities to spec-kit, and like it's something I need to pay close attention to. That said, I'll encourage you to do another pass on your command names, intros, and cheat-sheet.

I suspect most developers using codev will mostly use a very small fraction of the codev commands most of the time, similar to the way spec-kit is mostly /specify, /plan, /tasks, and /implement, with a bit of /clarify and /analyze once you really get comfortable with it. If I'm right, having some docs where you emphasize the simplicity of your core flow would be very helpful.

For calibration, five minutes into reading your home page and medium post and some of your repo docs, I'm ready to believe this is true, but I have no idea what that core flow is or looks like. Five minutes is actually a pretty long time, and I suspect most visitors will end up bouncing if they don't get clarity on what the experience is ultimately going to be like for them in five minutes (or, more likely, much less than five minutes).

The OP should read up on business strategy, probably starting with Porter's Five Forces.

Hint: Money is a nice thing to have but it is very definitely not a moat.

If a company is making above market returns and the only thing stopping a potential competitor from competing with them (aka the company's so-called "moat") is that "it takes money", that company does NOT have a moat.

It's very easy for a potential competitor to calculate that, after x-months or y-years, they will have made enough profits to pay for the cost of building the competing product. As long as that amount of time is finite, there is excess profit for a competitor to take, and the company will find it's so called "moat" wasn't a moat at all.

This isn't a new thing. It's been a fact for centuries or millenia. It's one of the many things that makes success in business hard.

Porter's Five Forces is one distillation of the foundational principles on which moats can be built (and yes, this is a non-trivial subject, so success in this area generally does take more effort than just reading or skimming the Wikipedia page, but if you had to distill it down to one sentence, it's probably "try to build something that has network effects").

When claude or codex does something other than what you want, instead of getting mad at it, ask it what it saw in your prompt that led it to do what it did, and how should you have prompted it to achieve what you wanted. This process tends to work very well and gives you the tools you need to learn how to prompt it to achieve the results you want.

When you get a chance to work on your login flow, I recommend giving users an opportunity to request the key rather than automatically showing it once only on the first screen.

I created the account from my phone, and don't have access to the dev tools I'd want to paste the key into. I can deal with it, but I don't know if I'll be able to regenerate the key if I lose it, I'd rather not store it on my phone, and I don't trust my accuracy in manually typing it in on my laptop while looking at my phone, so all the options feel not great. Again, not an actual roadblock, but still something I'd encourage fixing.

Edit added: Good thing I copied the key to my phone before writing this message. Jumping over to this page seems to have forced a refresh/logout on the ensure page in the other tab, so my token would (I think? maybe?) be lost at this point if I'd done it in the other order.

The first screen of your signup flow asks for "organization" - is that used as a username or as an organization name or both (I can't tell what if anything will be on the next screen)

If your registration process is eventually going to ask me for a username, can the org name and user name be the same?

For the moment, researching multi-agent orchestration. At first glance, your work looks among the best in class of published work I've seen. Particularly interested to understand the memory/communication/search model you're using, as it sounds like you've trying to think well past the GasTown/Beads/Claude-Code-Swarms concepts.

Can you add a license.txt file so we know we have permission to run this (eg MIT and GPL V3 are very different)

If you could actually detect AI content with high accuracy, you would sell it as a service and print money, but you can't, so you force all the rest of us to wade through posts like yours, claiming to tell the rest of us what is and isn't AI, which are FAR more annoying, disruptive, and low signal than the post you're commenting on, which is intelligent, adds to the conversation, and is, by my read, almost certainly actually human authored, just written by someone who knows how to write.

With all the Microsoft haters in this thread, I'm surprised no one has pointed out this is just another example of Microsoft copying Apple.

Satya's speech is essentially the same one Steve Jobs used to give to new VP's at Apple[0].

Providing some sample screenshot+output pairs would be helpful and probably singificantly increase the odds users interact with your product.
