If this was limited to just three results, I would agree with you. But those three are just the ones I've managed to verify myself. The list of unverified results is quite a bit larger. The field I've been investigating…
Maybe I'll end up doing the write ups pseudonymously. I have taken care to make sure the results can meaningfully contribute to field but I don't want to plant flags or really receive credit of any kind. I just think…
The numerical results are trivial to check. I wrote the analytical results in Lean by hand before asking a former professor to confirm after asking him to keep this private. They're valid.
What do we do about the problems that don't require many millions of dollars in resources? Last weekend I spun up a small agent swarm and pointed it at a field of math I have some affinity towards. Within four hours I…
The formatting on the readme makes it difficult to read
The datacenter topic is cursed because people are afraid of ai. People seized on water usage because it is a more legible and tractable focus for their fear.
It is wild that amidst all these platform stability issues, GH has decided now is the time to do cutesy marketing for a new feature
When we were dating, the first thing my now wife did was get me on a regimin of sunscreen and tretinoin. I now have significantly fewer wrinkles than my younger siblings (2-3 years).
My issue with this is not that codeberg and its members want to uphold a certain set of political beliefs. Any private organization is free to do that. It's that they haven't defined the rule that's supposed to encode…
> If your statistical model doesn’t contain this single bit in its output, then it doesn’t meet the minimum requirement for being a prediction. I would be fascinated to know how you model a coin flip.
He may not have control over the podcast spots, but his PR firm does have several AI companies as clients.
After alcohol, are we going to stop people from having multiple sexual partners in their lifetime? Because if public health is the goal, that would solve a lot of problems. It is fine to attempt to improve public…
The deep irony of the longform critiques is that the length is a proof of concept for the value of human effort.
I downloaded the "agent skill" file before installing it. You can read the full thing here: https://dpaste.com/GMEDXUR93 This is not really a pixel art project. Ut's a referral spam trojan for AI agents. The bulk of the…
Does this only apply to companies the commission doesn't like or will it apply to the hn app I use, my email clients, shopping sites, etc? Because it seems like the actual concern how good the algorithms are and not the…
Google will buy Anthropic if it comes to it. Google already owns ~30% of anthropic and Anthropic is running on Google hardware.
Everyone was laid off last year and the site is being mined for views.

I had a friend who flew out of SFO without an ID for many years without much issue. It was much more difficult for them to get back.
" As first reported by Reuters, Apple has acquired Q.ai, an Israeli startup specializing in imaging and machine learning, particularly technologies that enable devices to interpret whispered speech and enhance audio in…
Yeah this has always seemed very silly. It is trivial to use claude code to reverse engineer itself.
I share the frustration with the hype machine. I just don't think a guy with a blog is an appropriate target for our frustration with corporate hype culture.
Fair point on the Elbonia comparison. But we can't sue the SQLite maintainers either, and yet we trust them with basically everything. The reason is that open source developed its own trust mechanisms over decades. We…
Ok but this entire idea is very new. Its not an honest criticism to say no one has tried the new idea when they are actively doing it. Honestly I don't get the hostility. Yegge is running an experiment. I don't think it…
It is fine to have criticisms of this, I have many, but saying that Yegge hasn't built real software is just not true.
