- Comment on Majority of CEOs report zero payoff from AI 2 weeks ago:
Is your app as efficient as what an experienced developer would create? If you released the source code, would it have security vulnerabilities? These are just a couple of the more hidden issues that fly under the radar when shipping LLM-generated code.
- Comment on Majority of CEOs report zero payoff from AI 2 weeks ago:
There’s no such thing as “agents”, there must always be a human in the loop, they don’t just create code from nothing. Both in the sense of a human needing to prompt the LLM, and in the fact that they’re trained on human created code. “Agents” is just a buzzword made by tech CEOs and MBAs to make the general population think they’re doing more than they really are.
- Comment on Patch Tuesday update makes Windows PCs refuse to shut down 2 weeks ago:
Why crosspost from ML at all if there’s a sufficient alternative?
- Comment on Patch Tuesday update makes Windows PCs refuse to shut down 2 weeks ago:
Guessing you missed the fact that there were other links in there, and I only linked to ML because you got the crosspost from there originally. Nice use of transphobia as a tool against a trans person, though!
- Comment on Patch Tuesday update makes Windows PCs refuse to shut down 2 weeks ago:
It’s like that’s almost exactly what mentioned you said, and exactly why I’m commenting proper links to older posts! It fixes the proxying issue you mention to include it in the post, so I’m happy I can be of assistance. I’m still not sure why it’s so upsetting to you when users link back to other posts in the comments, especially when you weren’t the first one to post it. It helps drive conversation when people know it’s happening elsewhere.
- Comment on Patch Tuesday update makes Windows PCs refuse to shut down 2 weeks ago:
It shouldn’t matter that I’m linking to other posts, though, especially for those using screen readers that otherwise have no idea!
- Comment on Patch Tuesday update makes Windows PCs refuse to shut down 2 weeks ago:
You were exploitly told the apps where users weren’t seeing it before and chalked it up to an “image linking issue”, so I’m just helping other users avoid that in the future!
- Comment on Patch Tuesday update makes Windows PCs refuse to shut down 2 weeks ago:
Just posting so that people with apps which don’t properly display crossposting know that there are more comments and posts regarding this topic!

This is hilarious.
- Comment on Hacktivist deletes white supremacist websites live on stage during hacker conference 4 weeks ago:
The sites are still wiped (other than the homepage). It was real:
As of this writing, WhiteDate, which Hoffmann described as a “Tinder for Nazis”; WhiteChild, a site that claimed to match white supremacists’ sperm and egg donors; and WhiteDeal, a sort-of Taskrabbit-esque labor marketplace for racists, are all offline.
The administrator of the three websites confirmed the hack on their social media accounts.
“They publicly delete all my websites while the audience rejoices. This is cyberterrorism,” the administrator wrote on X on Sunday, vowing repercussions.
- Comment on Starlink VP confirms ‘dangerously close’ Chinese launch incident — close call saw satellite pass within 200 meters of Starlink travelling at over 17,400mph 1 month ago:
Did I say anything to argue otherwise? Since you brought it up, internet infrastructure grants should go to fiber PUDs and not a billionaire nazi. Then, there’s no need to have satellites. He’s polluting the skies for profit.
- Comment on Starlink VP confirms ‘dangerously close’ Chinese launch incident — close call saw satellite pass within 200 meters of Starlink travelling at over 17,400mph 1 month ago:
While true, they continuously replenish the ones that fall back to earth. I wouldn’t be surprised if their current launch pace is higher than the amount falling out of orbit. That’s not even mentioning the impact they have on ground-based astronomy.

- Comment on LLMs Will Always Hallucinate 3 months ago:
I know about this. But what you’re doing is different. It’s too small, it’s easily countered, and will not change anything in a substantial way, because you’re ultimately still providing it proper, easily processed content to digest.
- Comment on LLMs Will Always Hallucinate 3 months ago:
Their data sets are too large for any small amount of people to have a substantial impact. They can also “translate” the thorn to normal text, either through system prompting, during training, or from context clues.
I applaude you trying. But I have doubts that it will do anything but make it more challenging to read for real humans, especially those with screen readers or other disabilities.
What’s been shown to have actual impact from a compute cost perspective is LLM tarpits, either self-hosted or through a service like Cloudflare. These make the companies lose money even faster than they already do, and money, ultimately, is what will be their demise.

You could’ve just looked for off the shelf OCR software and it would probably be better, no LLM needed. OCR has been around for far longer than the current LLM bubble.
