The VCs footing the bill is really your pension funds and 401Ks and banks passing through the VCs. If VCs lose money the contagion spreads through the economy.

Also if this is on the path of anything the Chinese do in the physical goods world, inference will be rockbottom cheap in a few years because they'll invest in the hell out of energy, GPUs, research, etc. The same thing they did with EVs.

Only artificial barriers will keep people using some of the frontier stuff in a couple of years. No costs will justify.

Ask HN: Does Claude use 'prior' in a Bayesian sense more than English?

slake — Fri, 01 May 2026 02:32:17 +0000

Just an observation. When asked to summarize articles, or extract insights, I see the word 'prior' being used a lot more by Claude than usual English language writing (Journalistic essence). And it's clearly using it in a Bayesian sense, because it's always mentioning things like 'Updating priors', 'the prior doesn't hold', etc.

Probably something I noticed after reading the 'goblin' and 'gremlin' article.

I actually like 2006 twitter. Almost pleasant because of its obscurity.

- Only 140 characters - Increasing that added to the slop. Brevity was soul - No 'For you' algo. You had to find and follow the people you wanted to follow and then read all of their posts - RTing it was literally adding RT in front of the other person's tweet. - There was a 'like' icon (I think - don't remember) - There was no paid 'verified' accounts. You had to signal your official twitter account through different means. - There was no monetization for random clickbait ragebait content. - Ads are not that intrusive on twitter. That as a monetization strategy still works. - You only discovered people and not content.

Bro. I'm obsessed with this. I spent a good 2-2.5 hours on a trot with this. This was one of those things I always wanted to learn a lot about and this was just perfect for that. It wasn't that easy, I really struggled and gave up on some levels but came back and struggled through them. The HexRacer type levels are difficult and I wish I could skip through those.

Also when you give a solution, you probably need an explanation of why that works.

Can't wait till you add the additional coming soon levels.

Your feedback feature seems broken. I tried giving feedback about some basic bugs and it kept saying can't send message.

Please also add a waitlist to notify when you release the additional levels.

I'm wondering if this can use different workspace folders for different projects? I'd like to manage all my side projects through this but I can't put them all in one folder.

Funnily it seems you were already more organized than I am today before you had the *Claw. That's why you were able to transition to it as a 'life operating system'.

I have too much stuff in my head and nothing written down and that's beginning to be a hindrance to the transition.

Conspiracy theory here, but all the big AI companies have to do is find some 0-days and cause some data leaks at the top SoR companies for this confidence to waver.

That's amazing. Feels like a major step ahead. No lag, very snappy. Outstanding work.

Feels like those sci-fi shows where you can talk to Hari Seldon even though he lived like a 100 years ago.

My prediction, this will become really, really big.

May I ask what kind of tasks these are specifically? Is it mostly data entry, management and reporting? Or are you interfacing with devices?

slake — Sat, 27 Sep 2025 06:21:22 +0000

Sometimes I think we need to expose what 'memories' or their semantic representation has been stored in a 'memory store' so that humans can review and verify it over time. This will help the LLM 'forget' things that the humans using it don't really think is that relevant.

This is how I don't get when some predict that we'll have a shorter working week when AI improves productivity. If productivity gains are 50% the companies would rather have 50% lesser employees rather than 50% shorter work weeks.

The article doesn't answer its own question. The inherent contradictions in the ratings. Romania who just 'cancelled an election' and banned the winning candidate from contesting is 40 positions above India.
