My result: "The Podcast Bro

You listened to a three-hour interview with an AI researcher and now you have opinions."

BS, I listened at least THREE podcasts.

Well, I like the initiative, but dealing with code blocks looks like hell. You should not mess with the original indentation.

Also, the markup should at least support tables.

I mean, it’s the shitty human nature. You can't create anything publicly without people bashing your project, and you, for the sheer insolence of creating a piece of software.

Nice. I have a few suggestions:

Put code blocks inside 3 ticks in the beginning and 3 ticks in the end since it's the default for each file.

Remove the dashes to save tokens.

In the title for the code blocks put the full relative path to the file since some projects have many files with the same name.

Author's tweet text:

"apparently I made an encryption key that is orders of magnitudes larger than RSA, generates faster than RSA and due to sheer massive size, is practically virtually uncrackable.

1: Key Size Comparison

• RSA 2048: 2048 bits • RSA 4096: 4096 bits

• “Fractal Key”: 268,435,456 bits

2: Key Generation Time Comparison

• RSA 2048: Varies but typically much longer than “Fractal Key” • RSA 4096: Varies but typically longer than “Fractal Key”

• “Fractal Key”: 0.0044 seconds

4. Graph 3: Security Benchmark

• RSA 2048: Crackable in ~300 billion years with current technology

• RSA 4096: Crackable in ~15 quadrillion years with current technology

• “Fractal Key”: Estimated to be practically uncrackable within the lifetime of the universe due to sheer key size and complexity."

Just a suggestion. One of the best features of pure text editors (and incredible, not all of them implement it) is autosave keeping the "unsaved" state of the file.

For example, if you make some changes in a file (new or not), don't save the changes, close and open the editor, the state of the opened files are kept like I never had closed the editor. The unsaved files are still unsaved. New edited files are still there, unsaved, ready to user manually save them.

Notepad++ works that way, and it is an amazing feature.
