It doesn't quite work: https://gitclassic.com/pixijs (repos.filter is not a function)

Also it seems to get rate limited, but good work.

Show HN: Sonar CiteScout – Find the links AI relies on to answer a prompt

Hey HN!

I'm experimenting with tools that you help you understand what kind of content affects your visibility in AI search queries.

I built something that lets you quickly run a prompt on ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overview several times in the browser and grabs all the links AI cites and ranks them. The idea is to eventually help you reach out to authors and get backlinks to your own product.

You can try it out here: https://trysonar.ai/tools/citescout

This is really funny to watch and see what the LLMs are thinking. This makes me think how they would perform against a custom ML model trained with RL, e.g. https://ai.meta.com/blog/rebel-a-general-game-playing-ai-bot...

You should push the knob with a paper towel instead. I do this at all small public restrooms.

New comment by shukantpal in "Supreme Court Rules Companies Can Sue Striking Workers for 'Sabotage'"

If you intentionally fill up a truck with material that destroys it and then leave it, that is property destruction. That is equivalent to blowing something up (the concrete expands and blows up the truck) in that it is property damage.

Another example to help you understand:

If I came into my office in the morning with a highly flammable liquid and put them where the sun shines in the afternoon, and then intentionally left for "striking" - the ensuing office fire would be property damage on my part.

Surely you meant "without reproducible steps"?

The idea that strikes are intended to cost the company does not lend itself that workers can do anything that damages the company. Are workers allowed to blow up the trucks using TNT (as long as no one gets hurt)? Can they steal all the gasoline in the trucks and sell it on the secondary market? No.

Strikes are intended to lose the company money in a very specific way - by a lack of labor. They are not intended to lose the company money by intentional destruction of property (nor should they be intended to do that)

> Did they make a mistake when they were hiring or did they make a mistake now when they are firing? You cant believe both simultaneously.

No it's entirely plausible that hiring then was the right decision and firing now is the right decision. There's no universal law that says you must hire people for eternity.

This Wells notice is not about Coinbase lending out money but rather about staked assets. Coinbase is not doing any lending.

> Also when you buy a share of Apple you are not a part owner of the company.

This is totally wrong.

> as a shareholder you're entitled to very little and do not have legal rights to demand profitability.

Only if you are an isolated minority shareholder. If shareholders group together form a quorum (+ 50% of total ownership), they can demand anything from their company - including replacing the entire board and taking operational control of the company.

If you get laid off at Google, don't you have a grace period to find another role internally?

You didn’t read the comment. It’s not about getting a job in a restaurant within 1 mile - but rather opening a restroom yourself in that radius.
