I am big fan of internet 1.0 https://speculumx.at/blogpost/vom-archiv-zur-ablenkung

crazy idea - but no thank you :)

To me is lying about the obvious more "idiotic", than acting in a "bad manner". Again - I don't see a point in arguing here. If I show you the color "red" and you claim "it's blue", for political reasons or what ever, that is already idiocracy. I don't know what you are defending or what you are attacking or what you are even talking about. I wont change my mind or change my comment. It is what it is - learn to deal with it.

I was referring to the author, not American politics in general. I added "then this should be called out as well." I thought this made it obvious.

I don't know what you are talking about. I said - "Biden had problems unrightfully covered up" - and obviously we can't agree on that. So this is Idiocracy already - independent of Trump. If you are unable to speak truth independent of your own attitudes, wishes, ideas, etc. - that's idiocracy.

I can't take this seriously - blaming Trump but not Joe Biden, though latter had obvious symptoms of cognitive decline AND many "smart" people claimed otherwise. If you are literally tricked to doubt your own eyes, your natural judgements and being constantly gaslighted to think otherwise - then this should be called out as well. If this does not fullfil the criteria for "Idiocracy", then nothing does.

Germany should use it to search for Marsenne primes

Haha, funny name :)

Strange, that they didn't provide a link to an LLM subreddit or the right place, where to discuss LLMs ...

Hey, nice job! Next time tell calude to add some explosions, car crashes and stuntment into the design! Who cares about content anyway ... https://speculumx.at/blogpost/getting-sick-of-ai-slop

I star repos as bookmarks. Don't know if there is another feature for that

guilty :) 1 Star here - and even that is worthless

Fine to read a fellow countryman on HN :) "Dere!" I have disabled my coding agent by default. I first try to think, plan, code something myself and only when I get stuck or the code gets repetitive, only then I tell him to do the stuff. But I get what you are saying, and I agree ... I am clearly pro human on this debate, and the low bloat trash everywhere is annoying. I have come to the conclusion - if you find docs on something, and it is plain HTML - it will be probably of high quality. If you find docs with a flashy, dynamic, effectful and unnecessary 100mb js booboo, then you what you are about to read ...

Why not code it yourself - fitting you personal needs (if there is no market for that)?

Still getting MSN widget displayed, even though I turned it off. The best was - the unremovable desktop icon for the desktop wallpapers! That's what people who love a clean desktop always wanted for.

Hi, if you are still interested - I updated the post/paragraph and included:

Another approach would be not to make the files 1 TB in size, but only about 50 MB, while distributing them collectively. This would spread responsibility across many participants and reduce the individual burden of liability. If many users offered such files, automated scanners or bots would effectively end up cluttering themselves with useless data, without any single participant impacting the system to a degree that could be framed as deliberate destruction. [...] A possible safeguard for legitimate scanners would be to operate only within defined time limits or request quotas. In contrast, uncontrolled or unrestricted scanners would gradually overwhelm themselves with this distributed noise.

You are right. I am not satisfied with this sentence myself and will revise it. In its current form it sounds contradictory and nonsensical. However, I have not yet been able to identify a reliable demarcation criterion...

Keep your bad news to yourself. The amount of neuroticism in science is unbearable

If you can't take an insult - then you are an NPC

In summary, although the authors are clearly aware of the inherent triviality and subjectivity of their own analysis, they nonetheless insist on calling for a “correction” of public perception. Behind this supposedly neutral and educational effort lies an unspoken agenda — a desire to reshape how people see the world, not to inform them, but to subtly steer their understanding toward a particular moral or ideological direction that is never openly stated.

Go to hell with your political indoctrination on hackernews ... go to reddit with such stupid posts.

Academia has become home to scripted NPCs

nope, classic scripted NPC post

because of NPCs like the author

The author is just a scripted NPC.

My brain reads “No science, no startups” — alarm bells. This kind of mono-causal oversimplification can only be anti-Trump clickbait — I ignore the post. A few seconds later, guilt kicks in — “Don’t be so ignorant!” — I click the link. Literally the ninth word is Trump. My brain: “Alright, that says it all.”

I scroll a bit — should I really read this? My brain: “No, let ChatGPT analyze it critically.” Conclusion: The same kind of simplistic linear causality is presented without substance — no sources, no data, no valid projections — uncritically carried through. Typical NPC-scripted “science,” representative of much of today’s “NPC academia.” It’s just a patchwork of general knowledge and some combinatorial creativity, pretending to be expertise, seriousness, and understanding — enumerated to suggest strange, subjective, unscientific, and mostly personal goals.

This exact kind of NPC-scripted “science” needs to be exposed and discredited as pseudo. If this is the so-called “defense” of science, then it deserves to be opposed. Simple as that.

PLEASE - for the love of god - spare me with this nonsense!

This is a problem of publishers and retailers, and not a justification for distribution of mind theft.
