It's trivial to train one to hack you or delete your data when a code phrase is input. DeepSeek may have done so. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50159245

You mean Israel?

Which models for who?

For what it's worth, the vibecoded one probably used your old version as a base.

Pokémon Go had a good reason - it turned out to be foreign intelligence gathering operation and couldn't risk being corrupted with false data.

Banks want your money so try it anyway. Not all banks try to drive away their customers by preventing them from accessing their accounts.

Is this your experience or are you repeating something you heard somewhere?

Hi landlord, I lost my wallet and need a refund of last month's rent.

You're absolutely right!

The problem with this thinking is that every shoe cost effort to make. Software takes that much effort to make once, and then it can be duplicated for free whether it's awesome or crap. It isn't the same economics.

Kernel FUSE documentation is a dead link

Filming people at the gym is sexual harassment.

Bitcoin was subverted by powerful people and is no longer the people's currency.

How do you think the agencies and corporate suits got everyone to prefer MIT over GPL? It was all astroturfed.

Don't need to. The court can subpoena GitHub to find out who they are, and then can make a default judgement against them and enforce it.

Senators should be paid three times the lower quartile wage.

I run a HN voting algorithm and opinion manipulation system across a few hundred accounts - only a few on any individual post. I use residential proxies to prevent correlation. The account I'm using right now to confess this to you is one that's already been burned.

Downvoting this comment is funny, because it's a burned account anyway, so not hurting me, and you want less people to know this fact about HN?

Also, it already exists. The IPv4 range is included in the IPv6 range. 0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:ffff:0a00:0001 is the official IPv6 representation of 10.0.0.1.

As you can see, it doesn't actually solve anything.

It makes some APIs more convenient! You can pass this address to Linux for an IPv6 socket and it will secretly open an IPv4 connection to 10.0.0.1, so your code only has to support IPv6 sockets to support IPv6 and IPv4 connections.

It seems I've been rate limited to post every 12 hours, instead of five times per three hours. It must be either because I said interpreters don't emit native instructions, or because I said America had to buy TikTok to maintain American propaganda, or because I said you can make money gambling if your bets are the same as insiders. Or maybe I'm being punished for voting. I don't think dang will ever confirm what the reason was. Hacker News is so intransparent.

Did you get rich off these markets? If not, how can you say it's true?

> Why would any non-insider participate in these markets? You’re just asking to get screwed.

If people who do the obvious trades (sell oil right now - it's going down) lose money, all you have to do is do the opposite (buy oil right now - it's going down) and gain money. Is it not that simple? You will profit along with the insiders when Trump blockades the strait again, although you won't have such perfect timing.

In the US, the government still uses technology to control you, but you don't get convenient tax filing either.

If you think about the fundamentals involved here, what you actually need is for the OS to refuse to implement any syscalls, and not share an address space.

A process is already a hermetically sealed sandbox. Running untrusted code in a process is safe. But then the kernel comes along and pokes holes in your sandbox without your permission.

On Linux you should be able to turn off the holes by using seccomp.

If you turn milk into cheese it isn't milk any more, and it doesn't prove that milk is a yellow solid.

TikTok was a Chinese app that had no qualms against showing Americans what their country does.

China is at the forefront of innovation. America is not, except for financial innovation a.k.a. the best ways to get money out of people without doing actual work.

America has never been that. With everyone having access to apps like TikTok, the brainwashing stopped working as well and people can see that it isn't.

Only in a very pedantic sense. Google definitely sells the service of doing things based on your data. It is, in fact, their biggest and oldest revenue stream.

Interpreters don't translate bytecode to native instructions.

Individual neurons determine how your arm moves, but we still speak of a human as a whole being that makes decisions.

If by "decentralised" you mean "0.001% of it is not only hosted centrally"

They have designed a protocol that could theoretically be decentralised. Then reality hit, and it was centralised.

I've noticed this reclaimthenet site has very mixed factuality. Sometimes it posts good content but more often it just posts its preferred form of propaganda. I've reported it to dang but he doesn't care. I don't know why 404media is shadowbanned but reclaimthenet is not. I guess it's about who aligns with YC interests.
