1337h4xx··on Linus Torvalds on "don't use AI for X"
It's about time that someone put the gatekeepers in their place.

1337h4xx··on More questions about whether researchers can trust OpenAI with unpublished math
TL/DR: Mathematician opted out of training on 29-JUN and asked OpenAI whether they trained on his data and was told that it "did not happen" but it clearly did.
1337h4xx··on Utah development wants to be a solution for affordable housing
How could anyone account for units already rented? How can anyone apply for a unit that is not on their website? Those are market rates, there is nothing cheap about these units.

1337h4xx··on Ask HN: As AI becomes more capable what's the value of knowledge?
Do you remember the last time you used trigonometry or solved a quadratic equation in a real world scenario? That's basic math and it already has limited value. Also, see here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49405904
1337h4xx··on Utah development wants to be a solution for affordable housing
Yeah, I read that. There's simply no way to apply for a cheap unit on their website, and those are the market rents already, so call me a doubter.
1337h4xx··on Utah development wants to be a solution for affordable housing
The cheapest available unit is $1500 per month which is market price for the area.

Essential oils are quite versatile for self-experimentation; maybe one day the world will rediscover oilahuasca.
1337h4xx··on Ask HN: Is there a shortage of talent at early-stage deep-tech startups?
I'm replying to your other post which was about electrochemistry. You can take a look at this project for building a DIY device for electrifying the body for health benefits, which is similar to iontophoresis devices. https://groups.io/g/germkiller
1337h4xx··on Tlbic Supplement v11.0: Added Question for Readers in Other Languages
What have you done to engage with grassroots organizations then? Just post these documents on HN? I had explained that I found a hidden blockage in the financial system which would enable a basic income for individuals who do engaging and empowering micro-tasks in the speculative financial system while learning to avoid such gambling-adjacent behaviors. I had proposed that we team up to solve the problem and experiment with it by test-driving the funding mechanism. As I had explained to you, I am a problem solver focused on bringing my vision of basic income to the world; I am puzzled that communication between us ceased, it was fortunate that I saw your post though so I am inviting you to re-establish our communication channels.

Any thoughts about a funding mechanism that hackers can utilize to actually build something like this?
1337h4xx··on Kimi is Claude
From your article: "It seems likely that previous frontier models might have contributed to Kimi"
1337h4xx··on The relay market powering token resellers and fraud
It's mostly refunding and card fraud because "bad money drives out good" in any marketplace. It's equivalent to getting a refund on an Amazon package you received, which is why a frontier model is being sold at around 2% of the face value.
1337h4xx··on The relay market powering token resellers and fraud
Don't the operators store the agent traces and resell them as training data to AI companies? Why wasn't this mentioned? Did you find any evidence of that?
1337h4xx··on Ask HN: What's a great opening line you know?
We were somewhere around Barstow on the edge of the desert when the drugs began to take hold.
1337h4xx··on Ask HN: What new technologies are you excited about besides AI?
All the ones YC is looking for, especially crypto.
1337h4xx··on Tlbic: A localized, non-speculative basic income for societal resilience
Hello, I am posting another reply here as my previous one was marked. I am looking forward to communication with you via email and via real working sessions, as we have different specialties but the same vision, I see you as a viable co-founder for my project.
1337h4xx··on Ask HN: How do people keep track of organizational knowledge?
Just do what AI does to manage context: write docs, regression tests, content index, tools/skills, and CLAUDE.md
1337h4xx··on Tlbic: A localized, non-speculative basic income for societal resilience
Hello again, 1) Problem solving is my value; I approach the problem from a technical and scientific perspective; I value creating new systems that help people and can scale (without depending on politics). I want to eliminate poverty for desperate people, and to enable people to have hope and purpose in life. My vision is to provide a minimum standard of living for people living in third world outsourcing/freelancing hubs who desperately use the internet to get remote jobs rather than (for example) working outdoors with a shovel doing subsistence farming. Starting from this motivated group of people, the program could expand towards your vision of providing help to unmotivated people. I am trying to implement systems for UBI on the technical side, I do have experience with implmeneting these systems, I don't want my knowledge to be lost or to stay with me, I want to expand my vision and to make UBI realistic, not just a theory paper. I want to adapat the system with practice and learnings. I want to grow the scope of problems that can be addressed by UBI but it's all theoretical unless there is a funding mechanism.

2) This link (below) is broken so I can't really analyze the full scope of your ideas; could you make this a public document please? I think the key difference is time-expiry and the philosophy behind it. I did read your other English docs. For me, UBI is a government welfare program; in contrast, my idea involves people like you and me establishing charitable institutions, self-defense and barter systems, like a neo-Hawala, that would help people directly while bypassing the government. Creating a movement/organization means taking risks in the real world because we recognize the moral imperative and we won't wait for the government's "comprehensive administrative reforms" to create a grassroots movement that can help people. TLBIC_Policy_Proposal_v8.0_EN: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BzNLajzFjxUTD3Xmr6NhiDblBz4...

3) The government is not moving fast enough, the welfare system doesn't automatically distribute things and political change often requires a crisis, but technology could do it immediately, the government could get involved later but since we are not the government, we can't really make the government run a pilot right now or even to influence a politician. Some NGOs do eventually get absorbed into government, this NGO would not need to receive funding but would output funding, just like a public benefit corporation that pursues a social mission does today.

Thank you.

1337h4xx··on Tlbic: A localized, non-speculative basic income for societal resilience
Hello, I am an individual working on various projects especially on self-funded UBI practical solutions, I live in USA and am employed in tech. I was impressed by your writing and mission and am reaching out to see if you want to move toward an implementation of a pilot or study. We can meet online and use frontier AI tools to make a plan. My pilot involves testing the UBI funding scheme that I have planned, as I see the source-of-funds question as the biggest gap in UBI schemes; taking the gov out of the equation is something that technology could do. I am willing to fund the experiment but I would like someone to partner with me as I don't really have time to implement my ideas and I haven't thought about all the tradeoffs either, I just have a process that could work, and has already worked in special circumstances as per my tests. Please do reach out thru email, as your comment was marked, hence I cannot reply to comments and must start a new top-level comment.
1337h4xx··on Ask HN: Is anyone else feeling bad about Reddit's mechanisms
you could look those up on Reddit too since that's where you belong.
1337h4xx··on Tlbic: A localized, non-speculative basic income for societal resilience
I would like to collaborate with you on this, I want to do a pilot like the one you described, I will be happy to enable you with paid AI tools. Your story is touching. See my profile.

1337h4xx··on Claude Fable 5: Why Anthropic's Most Powerful AI Was Suspended?
You should use AI to improve your grammar. If you search for "fable 5 fix this code" then you will find the details.
1337h4xx··on Blog HN: Claude Code Making an Ass Out of You and Me
That's not how it works; when Claude prompts you for an answer, it's not going to wake itself up if you fail to answer in time unless you have it on a cron.
1337h4xx··on Tell HN: I'm not excited for Fable and am disappointed in Karpathy
It's not nerfed, it just won't respond to "fix this code" when the code is insecure and will silently fall back to a weaker model.
1337h4xx··on Ask HN: How inevitable are most accessible hard-tech startups?
Yes. Many discoveries take place independently. Einstein said he is not special he just sits with a problem longer.
1337h4xx··on Ask HN: If AI-generated code works 100%, do languages still need to be upgraded?
Insane people will still create new tech stacks for fun just like they always have.
