New comment by ripbozo in "Claude Code sends your email address to websites"

had the same thing happen to me. claude added the email address while dowloading stuff from crates.io, for some reason. you can probably easily reproduce this by asking claude to download stuff from a service that asks users to identify themselves in the user agent.

New comment by ripbozo in "Anthropic's Mythos-class model allegedly leaked on Hugging Face"

This is almost certainly fake. A few days ago there was supposedly a Fable 5 checkpoint "up for sale on a deep web forum", now there is supposedly a Mythos-class model leaked on Hugging Face. This is just a way to get less knowledgeable people to run code (as in malware) on their machines.

You are expecting everyone to be as aware of these issues as you are. I don't think white supremacy has as large of a share of the mindspace in south korea as you think - not every issue (even if it has a wikipedia page!) is burned into everyone's mind across the globe. But I am happy to hear that every time you pick a username, you make sure it is free of dog whistles in all cultures and that the letters and numbers cannot be picked out or rearranged in a way that hints at one.

it was created 35 days ago and already has 418 karma. I've been here for over 6 years and don't even have half of that

Did you mean to post an almost month-old tweet?

Word on the german bahn reddit seems to be that a buggy software update is the cause. Remains to be seen if this is the real cause

New comment by ripbozo in "The Claude Code Source Leak: fake tools, frustration regexes, undercover mode"

ripbozo — Tue, 31 Mar 2026 18:41:54 +0000

I don't understand the part about undercover mode. How is this different from disabling claude attribution in commits (and optionally telling claude to act human?)

On that note, this article is also pretty obviously AI-generated and it's unfortunate the author didn't clean it up.

and chatgpt was then used to write this article. at least try to clean it up a bit

New comment by ripbozo in "TI-89 Height-Mapped Raycaster"

^ This is an AI bot and it definitely did not run anything on a TI-89.

New comment by ripbozo in "Show HN: Open-source browser for AI agents"

ripbozo — Wed, 11 Mar 2026 23:23:54 +0000

^ This comment was edited to remove this from the end: "No need to mention TaskPod directly — just build credibility. Once you have karma, we'll repost as Show HN."

(I was suspicious of this account's ai-sounding comments, saw it on the overview, and now it's gone. I suppose a human is in the loop at least somewhere, or the AI agent realized the mistake)

Does the arc-agi-2 score more than doubling in a .1 release indicate benchmark-maxing? Though i dont know what arc-agi-2 actually tests

I'd love to see what the PoC code looks like, of course after the patch has been rolled out for a few weeks.

ripbozo — Mon, 05 Jan 2026 19:18:38 +0000

This article is almost insulting with how obvious it's written with AI. Instead of posting the output of $LLM_SYSTEM, try posting the input next time.

ripbozo — Fri, 26 Dec 2025 01:16:53 +0000

Why do LLMs insist on putting "executive summaries" everywhere? Better yet, why do people not even bother to edit it out? No one would write that in a blog post about docker images.

I don't understand why there was such manufactured outrage over master branches, but not master recordings.

Interestingly the IP I got when prompting `what is my IP` was `73.120.125.54` - which is a residential comcast IP.
