I was tutoring math last year to high schoolers; I had one student who was receiving B’s in math at her public high school, and she could not do -4 times 1 or correctly answer 2 divided by 2.
This is entirely AI written; clearly, this author is so busy that they now need to delegate their writing to AI, too!
Rent seeking is pretty ugly. I think Tao’s perspective is nuanced here, but calls to prevent OpenAI from making new discoveries by the AHM are sad to see.
> "except that the software industry is special" This is the labor theory of value; consumers don't care if the code is hand-made, they want the cheap goods (software) that are the output.
how are these claude written blogs consistently making front page?
you could fetch the text from linked blog posts over time and run 'em through pangram, I bet >20% of blogs linked on HN today are totally LLM written
Yeah, I find the notion that human judgement is superior to algorithmic judgement to be pretty suspect… look at Jens Ludwig’s work on judges, it’s not like involving a human improves outcomes somehow
I agree with you that most humans are trustworthy, but fraudulent actors will build trust with counterparties on your marketplace and then abscond. "Personally meeting with them" does not prevent a "long firm" from…
I’m very curious about how you’re fending off fraud— just wondering about how a lot of dark web transactions supposedly have escrow, but people waive it and then get burned. Do you have anything beyond KYC/escrow?
Regardless of your personal feelings about AI, this is pretty clumsy regulation that will just cause Tiebout sorting away from NY. If there are negative externalities, tax 'em, use the proceeds for some feel-good social…
it's wild to me how many AI written articles get front page on HN
https://bfi.uchicago.edu/working-papers/artificial-writing-a... The OP article is also just so, so obviously AI slop... if you're already thinking "this is probably AI" and pangram thinks the same, that's fairly damning.
Pangram reports 76% of this text is AI generated.
You're making a strong statement about the counterfactual here; how could you know? Clearance rates for most crimes in the US are abysmal, the expected outcome for most crimes is "unsolved."
Poverty alleviation is not a silver bullet (or anywhere close) for crime reduction, as nice as it would be if that were true.
According to Pangram, this is likely AI generated, surprised that no one has pointed this out
This is straight up AI generated economic disinformation. Are you seriously claiming that computers cost more in real terms today than 20 years ago?? Some of these goods (housing) do cost more, but a lot of these…
Rent seeking via occupational licensing, there is nothing new under the sun

Companies soliciting big bounties should charge a fee to submit, making slop costly. Steam, the video game publisher, does this. Developers need to pay a fee to list their game, and if their game sells sufficient…
