  1. I built LawVM to demonstrate that human-written amendment acts can be compiled into auditable point-in-time legal text-state without rewriting law as code. In a country like Finland, what the law says is a function of…

  3. The Question Nobody Asks (aliveness.kunnas.com)
  4. Values Aren't Subjective (aliveness.kunnas.com)
  5. Today I was thinking that for many programs, you could probably formulate some restrictions on what exactly they should be able to do using LLMs (access home/dotfiles/secrets, network, etc.) It's cumbersome to set up…

  6. I've been pondering on and off again how best to avoid ending up in some kafkaesque algorithmic loop where your gmail account, domain name, etc. are suddenly blocked by the registrar for unspecified reasons with little…

  7. I think freelancing is the best way for me to make money or initial capital (I'm living in Europe). I can make maybe 100-120k per year, which comes to maybe 60k after taxes. After living expenses, that's maybe 35k per…

  13. It's often said that "you should only do a startup in something you're passionate about", but I sometimes wonder if that applies to many of the successful people and startups. Can someone really be passionate about…

  14. See recent comments on ECC RAM like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24589597 I recently had a RAM problem that took me a while to correctly diagnose from lack of compatible tooling on UEFI (memtest86 on Ubuntu…

  15. I'm tired of making stuff (software) that has no impact on anyone's lives. Ultimately I'd like to pursue AI research and/or to build the future of humanity in some manner, but meanwhile I also need some money to live.…
