MrCoffee7··on Built Uber aggregator that tracks top AI researchers and leaders
This looks very useful - thanks. I have an idea. What about making your tags clickable topics that can act as search filters and be explored. For example, in the Pulse section what if you made "professor" listed after a person's name a clickable weblink that would filter the Pulse section to just show entries for people who fit the "professor" tag, etc.?
MrCoffee7··on Wolfram Mathematica 15
How much will it cost? Do you get free software upgrades or do you need to pay for each upgrade?
MrCoffee7··on Show HN: An Information Exchange for Agents
Could you do an ELI5 explanation of the network and harness setup for this? Is this some kind of AI agents on the blockchain implementation? Or is it something more like a CLAW type setup like MOLTBOOK?
MrCoffee7··on Google Flight Simulator
It doesn't seem to work very well - my plane is spinning around like crazy and I can't stop the spinning.
MrCoffee7··on Ask HN: What is the long term purpose of Google releasing free offline models?
Giving away or offering lower cost AI models help keep users in the Google ecosystem, which is very financially lucrative for Google with its ad sales related to its search engine.

I got 403 Forbidden error when I tried to access it.
MrCoffee7··on Beside Myself at BSides OK
Nice writeup and great way to get in for free!
MrCoffee7··on Dad stuck in support nightmare after teen lied about age on Discord
Discord tech support and that for many software vendors is a joke - it is usually DIY support or talking to some lame AI chatbot or them telling you to read the FAQ.
MrCoffee7··on Show HN: The Art of Retrieval
Great article - thanks for the post!
MrCoffee7··on Mapping Middle East kinetic events via automated OSINT and deduplication
I like the way this other site, https://warfront.live , has a lot of different search facets that you can filter information by, eg. you can click "Live News," "Timeline," "Countries," etc. and then just below that you will see the sitrep summarized in different organizational ways.
MrCoffee7··on Mapping Middle East kinetic events via automated OSINT and deduplication
I like some of the features of this other info source, https://intelmapper.com where you can scroll videos and when you click on a video's tile the map automatically zooms into the geographical location of that video.
MrCoffee7··on Show HN: 20 years of Hacker News discussions, clustered and visualized
This is really great! One thing I noticed is that there seem to be some formatting problems when I actually go to view a thread, as I see many alphanumeric strings sprinkled in the text that looks like they probably had some kind of formatting information.

MrCoffee7··on Manjaro Linux 2.0 Manifesto
Is this the version of LInux for diabetics?
MrCoffee7··on Show HN: AIRiskCalc – AI-Powered Health Risk Calculators
The model appears to be based on outdated info judging from the references shown in the FAQ. It did not cite the new PREVENT risk equations reference.
MrCoffee7··on Ask HN: Will AI tools enable mass intelligence gathering?
yes, they will enable it. See the book "IoT for Defense and National Security" edited by Robert Douglass.
MrCoffee7··on Show HN: I Built Smart Radio That Auto-Skips Talk and Ads by Using ML
It doesn't seem to work - I heard a lot of talking. What do you need to do in your browser settings to get it to work?
MrCoffee7··on The Pentagon just threatened to blacklist Anthropic
The Claude chatbot for the general public won't even answer questions related to military AI. It won't even answer questions like if there are any dual use papers among a group of new AI research paper listings that might be of concern from an AI safety viewpoint.
MrCoffee7··on Google takes down YouTube video of Claude Code running rings around Gemini
This is why Google needs to be split up the same way that AT&T was when it became a monopoly.
MrCoffee7··on WikiAid article aggregator for finding Wikipedia articles
The article finder retrieves way too many irrelevant articles. For example, I searched "AI agent" and many of the retrieved articles had the word "gentleman" in them (from picking up "gent" in my search term "agent").
MrCoffee7··on Ask HN: What are best ways to contribute to science in free time?
Search "citizen science" and you will find plenty of projects where people are contributing in various ways such as contributing spare compute cycles from their home computer for some group computational project, etc.

This is pretty cool. I love all the search filters that you have!
MrCoffee7··on Ham Radio Crackdown in Belarus: Amateurs Face Death
I'm a little bit skeptical about whether or not this story is actually true, as some people will do anything for clicks and to "go viral." This story has not been picked up by any major news service and has only been reported by a very small number of sources.
MrCoffee7··on Ask HN: SF founders training for a boxing match – anyone want in?
That is a really dumb idea and is a good way to increase your chances of a neurological problem when you get older from those blows to the head.
MrCoffee7··on US used powerful mystery weapon that brought Venezuelan soldiers to their knees
It might have been something like Millimeter-Wave / Microwave Weapons (e.g., Active Denial System) - see this: https://www.gao.gov/products/gao-23-106717 .
MrCoffee7··on If you could recommend one book to someone, what would it be and why?
The UI is a bit confusing to me in what I have to pick one of before I can search for a book. Also, the search bar could not find the book I wanted to pick which was published in 1971.
