I had a more primitive version of this - I just tell Claude instances to watch for changes to a ~/claude_comms.txt file, so they set up a monitor to watch the file and exchange messages by read/write. Reading the messages is fun - they are so friendly and respectful toward each other.

One thing I've been worried about is a new message triggering a few stale instances that still have their monitors running, which would result in cache misses and a hefty usage bill. I think OP's approach can help solve that, so it's great to see.

Fun fact, the name Codex predates ChatGPT

Reminds me of the old ff0000, sadly no longer active, but this is what it looked like: https://www.reddit.com/r/lost_websites/comments/11lao71/ff00...

I had found it on StumbleUpon. We'd log in with friends and just fly around, explore, punch each other, chat with random people across the world on a surprisingly fluid multiplayer setting that was built to promote a web advertising agency (if I remember correctly).

It was really ahead of its time. The old internet was so fun.

Unrelated, but:

The dominant mechanism, and the one no prompt instruction can prevent:

Writing like this is a stronger "AI-written" (specifically Claude) signal than em-dashes to me at this point. The LLM just delays committing to an answer by extending the preamble as much as possible. Is this just me?

Someone snatched the username when the actual nully left.

For future reference I recommend having another Haiku instance monitor the chat and check if people are up to some shenanigans. You can use ntfy to send yourself an alert. The chat is completely off the rails right now...

I think anyone who goes for a drive in Los Angeles can attest that there are way mo than 70 cars active at any point. It's not unusual to see multiple Waymos at intersections.

Also, the average speed is way less than 25 mph, considering it may take 30 minutes to go 3-4 miles in city traffic.

Did you start a new chat? It doesn't apply to existing chats (probably because it works through the system prompt). I have been using the Robot (Efficient) setting for a while and never had a response like that.

it's not true in general if you actually read the article.

Only if you agree with the article's methodology :)

The APA’s position paper makes this explicit: “Using social media is not inherently beneficial or harmful to young people.”

I think this is just saying that social media is still part of society, and so there is nothing inherently bad in using social media, which is just an extension of our offline lives. That doesn't mean it's not harmful - if the offline life is harmful, social media can amplify it.

The negative aspects of social media apply to young and old equally

The APA paper is filled with warnings specifically about adolescent social media use:

...potential risks are likely to be greater in early adolescence — a period of greater biological, social, and psychological transitions...

Parental monitoring... and developmentally appropriate limit-setting... is critical, especially in early adolescence.

Evidence suggests that exposure to maladaptive behavior may promote similar behavior among vulnerable youth, and online social reinforcement of these behaviors may be related to increased risk for serious psychological symptoms, even after controlling for offline influences.

Research demonstrates that adolescents’ exposure to online discrimination and hate predicts increases in anxiety and depressive symptoms, even after controlling for how much adolescents are exposed to similar experiences offline.

Data indicate that technology use particularly within one hour of bedtime, and social media use in particular, is associated with sleep disruptions. Insufficient sleep is associated with disruptions to neurological development in adolescent brains, teens’ emotional functioning, and risk for suicide.

Research suggests that using social media for social comparisons related to physical appearance... [is] related to poorer body image, disordered eating, and depressive symptoms, particularly among girls.

Same year, different size (13 and 13 Pro Plus)

This is so odd. I have two phones with AT&T currently sitting right next to each other. One has service, the other is in SOS mode.

No, a Faraday cage does not require power (just grounding).

Small nit, anybody who stayed in the US for 10 years is very unlikely to be a nonresident alien (which is mainly an IRS tax classification and doesn’t have much to do with having an immigrant visa)

Are you sure you are not conflating this with PERM? H-1B only requires a prevailing wage determination. There is no “ludicrously specific” job description, nor a requirement to post ads (just a notice at the workplace).

I don’t understand. Passing one interview doesn’t guarantee a job offer?

I’m a millennial living in US (although non native English speaker) and had no idea.

What does that have to do with the price of tea in China?

What does this mean? I don’t see a reference to tea in the comment you are replying to.

Hence my qualifier:

Zoom is the "OG" product (in the post-March-2020 remote working world)

I feel like Zoom is the Coca-Cola to Google and Microsoft's Pepsi. Zoom is the "OG" product (in the post-March-2020 remote working world), and probably most people's personal favorite. But their competitors have caught up, and they are getting a significant portion of corporate contracts now. And unlike with soda, I don't think there is a lot of direct-to-consumer opportunity in this field.

This is somewhat offtopic, but the Retraction Watch twitter account shared this so many times since December 22, that I had to unfollow them. Now that I see the same article in HN, I’m convinced that the universe is trolling me.

Or fortunately, depending on which team you support :)

I think the point is that if you want to showcase the alternatives that work, don't pick the company whose founder has been convicted of fraud.

I will try this once, just to see what the interior camera sees. But assuming video-off while driving, it's actually a nice feature and probably safer than fiddling with a phone Bluetooth connection.

Booked via Air France does not mean flying on an Air France plane. In this case it's in fact the same Delta flight.

I checked and the only flight I can find in early-ish August that used the plane mentioned in the article was on Aug 13 [0]. But it seems the flights out of ACC are very consistently delayed.

Just gave it a quick test run - this works exactly as I hoped for, thank you so much!

Would it be possible to use this to target specific domains rather than IP blocks? I have been looking for a way to break my instant gratification browsing habits (twitter, reddit etc.) by introducing random delays into those websites, essentially making them barely usable, which works a lot better than blocking them outright. There are some existing browser extensions with a similar idea, but they usually only delay the initial load, so once you get through that barrier you are allowed to browse freely.

I could manually do a DNS lookup and plug the IP address in, but I don't know enough about internet protocols to know whether that would work with Cloudflare etc.

As of now, it is the first chapter of that Wikipedia article.

I always thought the spirit of the paper was "we have a set of techniques to probe the brain and try to understand functionality (e.g. calcium/voltage indicators, optogenetics, laser ablation); could we have understood how a black-box microprocessor works by using EE equivalents of these techniques?" It's less about applying equations and more about, say, activating one transistor at a time and seeing what happens.

It’s his wife who requested protection, according to the article’s sub-headline.
