The Claudemade submission text is grating enough to read (it could have been a quarter of the length).
Be kind. Don't be snarky. Converse curiously; don't cross-examine. Edit out swipes.
Expose brain to something, record it somehow, see if brains reaction in the recording helps you understand more about who we are and what cognition is.
It also helps companies like Moonbug Entertainment (Candle Media) understand how to build better Distractatrons.
It’s a small TV screen, placed a few feet from the larger one, that plays a continuous loop of banal, real-world scenes — a guy pouring a cup of coffee, someone getting a haircut — each lasting about 20 seconds. Whenever a youngster looks away from the Moonbug show to glimpse the Distractatron, a note is jotted down.
“It’s not mega-interesting, what’s on the Distractatron,” said Maurice Wheeler, who runs the research group. “But if they aren’t fully focused, they might go, ‘Oh, what’s that?’ and kind of drift over. We can see what they’re looking at and the exact moment when they got distracted.”

What a world.
That’s just how some humans write.
Sure, but we can't handwave away every observation about LLM output with "(some of) the original training corpora came from humans". Qualitatively, the vibes are off™.

Remember the gremlin thing?
The readme is full of compound Claudeisms, so why not ;-)

Further, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47340079 suggests HN is facing a sea change unlike any past fad (Big Data, VR/AR, NFT, Web3, ...). Due to Brandolini's law, it cannot simply be disregarded with the "semi-noob illusion as old as the hills" cudgel.
This may actually be a solid way to tackle the bullshit asymmetry problem caused by drive-by LLM sloppers.
I wonder if the script itself was written by an LLM before obfuscation?
I seem to recall seeing an Akamai-branded base64'd shell script on a white shirt pre-2021(?), so unless they've changed the code since then, I doubt it...
Yeah, I'll stick with the oneliner.
For me, it's GPT-5.9 Year of the Whisper-Quiet Maytag Dishmaster
Flagged activity can also trigger account-level review across relevant conversations and risk signals, consistent with our terms and policies around content retention and review. Looking beyond a single conversation helps our systems distinguish persistent malicious behavior from legitimate dual-use security work, where similar technical concepts may appear in very different contexts.
Every conversation you have with these "more capable" models will be monitored and joined up and then your entire account might one day be tagged as Distiller or Cyber Threat Actor or whatnot. When combined with identity verification (which isn't discussed in this press release), expect people to be falsely flagged and banned from ever using OpenAI models again.
Wish I could find the thread from last week where discussions of exactly this kind of thing were dismissed as daft and outlandish.
Filter what? Imageboards aside, most social networking sites don't have a CAPTCHA every time you want to post or perform a write action.
This still makes no sense to me, for practical applications.
Now you're getting it! :^)
Exactly my question. 600 lines of Swift-in-shell-wrapper and Claude couldn't have run sysdiagnose and vibed out a quick report to throw into Feedback Assistant?
Same thing nowadays :^)
Some AI folks want to bifurcate the meaning of "token" towards a spendable store of value, rather than characters processed by a tokenizer.
"Donate tokens". "Gift tokens". Semantic drift?
I'm going to do a simonw here and coin "Markdown hoarding" for the Claudeism of producing reams of hyper-dense prose and compounding it with every commit that touches docs. The documentation gets more and more bloated.
The default Claude voice is breathless, jargon-heavy showboating:
WebRTC transport (trickle ICE) — RTCPeerConnection data channels with trickle signaling; same-machine mDNS-loopback rewrite. Browser/device-verified. peerd-distributed/transport/transports/webrtc.js
TOFU rootfs integrity pin — pure decision logic: trust-on-first-use pin of base-image size + first-64KiB SHA-256, verified each boot, fails closed on drift. Head-only by construction — a faithful-head/tampered-tail host is an acknowledged residual gap. peerd-engine/image-pin.js (partial)
PDF reading (read_pdf) — pdf.js text-layer extraction with opt-in SRI-pinned OCR engine + page assembly. pdf/, tools/defs/read-pdf.js
Better to find some therapy
This is an inappropriate suggestion.
You should review the guidelines before posting here again.
The model considered it.
There are 25 or so mentions of fp16 and fp32 weights across the 7500+ words of Markdown text it generated. So the next question might be: Did it make the right calls?

Yeah. If the "don't post AI generated comments" guideline was extended to cover posts, I wonder what % of recent front page articles would be impacted.
Yo dawg, I heard you like agents, so we put agents in yo agents so you can burn tokens while you burn tokens.
What are your thoughts on the SNR of the linked GitHub issue threads? Consider the volume of comments posted and the substance of each comment.
This particular IDV flow will be used with consumer Claude web accounts only.
Worth noting that posting LLM-generated comments violates the HN guidelines.

You're absolutely right! Joined-up penmanship is exactly the same as our current asymmetry in absorbing reams of soullessly verbose, arrogant pablum shat out by the latest crop of "frontier" LLMs.
