Interesting and amazing presentation.

I also liked that it didn't explicitly say how it decides when to play a note.

All the subway routes are normalized to 15 seconds long from beginning to end. The app then plays all 15 second routes together, playing the instrument assigned to the route when there's a train there.

Neat commentary on the instruments that were assigned to the route when you mouse over it.


Isn’t it the opposite?

I have a pet theory that the uptick in normal cybersecurity PRs you mention as a trend in your blog were done with Claude Code’s stealth mode and Mythos.

Aside from FDIC’s insurance, nothing.

And if banks get hacked and money gets wired out - maybe we’ll come up with ways to roll back the damage.

Who knows - this is new territory.


What kind of code do you work on, and what model & harness do you use? Genuinely curious so I can calibrate my understanding.

I work on enterprise web apps for a few dozen people with Codex CLI and GPT-5.4, and haven't really run in to those issues.


I make a lot of very small casual games. I've used both Claude Code and Codex CLI extensively, I pretty much always use whatever is the best model + highest thinking level, although I have been off Codex since just before 5.4 came out.

Ooooh very interesting idea.

I also have nothing to back it up, but it fits my mental models. When juggling multiple things as humans, it eats up your context window (working memory). After a long day, your coherence degrades and your context window needs flushing (sleeping) and you need to start a new session (new day, or post-nap afternoon).

There is another possibility. “Source?” is a low effort comment, but GP’s is not.


IMO putting an important number in your post/comment, and not providing a source for that number, is also kind of low effort. If you verified the number before writing, you already had the source ready and you could just put it in the comment. If you wrote the number from memory, not checking if your memory is correct is low effort (but you can also warn the readers that the number is from memory, that's better). If you're intentionally misrepresenting what the number means in your comment (and giving the source would contradict the meaning of your comment), or just giving a number that "feels right" or a number that you know is wrong, then it's low effort and a lie.

I try to verify important numbers and facts in what I read, and seriously, there's so much fake or misrepresented info everywhere, on every political side, that it's depressing, and it makes me don't believe literally anything without a source, unless I verify it myself. Of course when someone provides a source, I often look into the source, and sometimes it turns out that the text misinterpreted/misrepresented the meaning of the source. On Wikipedia, I also check if what is written is actually in the source, because sometimes the editor writes his own opinion while only loosely basing the text on a source (or basing it on nothing).

Verification can take some time, and that's the effort passed from the author of unsourced claim to its many readers, unless they just trust it or ignore the claim.

When I write anything I try to include sources for important things. If I wouldn't include a source, and someone asked "Source?" I wouldn't think "what an annoying guy", I'd think "oh, I could have linked that in the first place". And I usually upvote "Source?" comments (unless it's a thing that anyone can check in 30 seconds). I usually double-check the facts in what I'm writing, and many times I almost wrote something from memory that wasn't true, but looking for a source saved me from that.

This is also a low effort comment, despite the word count.

In contrast, shubhamjain found Meta's earnings release for the specified time period, quoted numbers that appear to contradict the claim, and provided a link to the release. This adds to the conversation, while a comment that says "Source?" or a few paragraphs that can be reduced to "Source?" do not.


What benefit do you gain by having an llm write comments on HN? I don't get it.


Too brief, minus 10 marks.


According to the blog post, it should be also great at drawing pelicans riding a bicycle.


GP does use a lot of "it's not this, it's that" pairs. :)
