Unfortunate that linking code from your computer doesn't work with Firefox

Very interesting though

That was my first thought, I don't think my employer would be cool with this somehow

I have done this to every work Macbook I have received since 2015. No one has ever said anything.

I remember at the time the consensus was that the email host itself had been hacked

It was running on outdated software with known vulnerabilities

Seems like a hacker would then use the email for more nefarious goals like manipulating price...

Who doesn’t like a good mystery?

I like good mysteries too but satoshi mystery articles come out with same thing everytime.

I don't. It's a tool used by modern "journalism" to distract and detract from a story. If you have something reliable to report, then by all means, report it. If all you have is a "compelling narrative" then put it on the shelf and do NOT waste my time with it.

If you can't manage that then publish fiction books.

You already wasted your time bringing yourself into the conversation.

Why? You've expressed no more meaningful of a position than I have. Perhaps you're confused as to the purpose of a "forum?"

I can’t get past the fact that Hal Finney lived around the corner from someone called “ Dorian Satoshi Nakamoto”

I know coincidences happen but that’s one hell of a coincidence

Yeah this one seems absolutely insane, how many Satoshi Nakamotos are there in the world? It's very plausible to see the name on a mailbox (or meet the person) and think "that'd be a cool handle." And it's so wildly improbable that someone else would make up exactly the name of a neighbor of one of a small clique of obscure internet cypherpunks. It's not like the name was "John Smith" or anything.

But I don't know how to square that with the "Finney was running a marathon while satoshi sent emails" claim.

> It's very plausible to see the name on a mailbox (or meet the person) and think "that'd be a cool handle."

Indeed. Would anyone on the short list have known of this neighbor?

Crontab?

Given Back and Finney's close-ish relationship, that same fact could have permeated to Back, and would be a further reason for him to use the name. That said, it's all pure speculation so :shrug:?.

Is it a coincidence? Or is it really bad opsec from someone who was otherwise pretty good at it? Or was it really good opsec and someone wanted to plant little clues that it was finney?

He ran a small (30 employee) tech startup for 7 years

He was a partner at YC for 8 years

He has no research/PhD background in AI and is the CEO of an AI company

There is no objective data point in which he's a better CTO than a CEO

It's kind of ironic that the name of this product is also the most obvious marker of LLM generated content

That's the joke.

Oh I am slow lol

Is this an April fools?

Name is a joke, but the project is real

Functional April Fools, the best kind. A couple years ago Eleiko, a weightlifting equipment company did one, the 'Heavy Mug', a 19 poundish steel coffee cup with a handle in the style of a knurled bar, and actually did a limited run of them.

"That allows us to license the open source project under the more permissive MIT license."

How many people using AI are actually paying for it (outside of people in tech)?

I find the free models are much more psychophantic and have a higher tendency to hallucinate and just make shit up, and I wonder if these are the ones most people are using?

> I find the free models are much more psychophantic and have a higher tendency to hallucinate and just make shit up

I keep seeing this claim yet it my experience it doesnt hold water. I pay for the models, most people I know pay for the models, and we see all of the exact same issues.

I have Claude and ChatGPT both bullshit and lick my ass on the regular. The ass licking will occur regardless of instruction.

Comments like this are why I just love Hacker News

ok clearly I'm a robot because I can't figure out wtf to do
