at the very least, run it inside a docker container (making sure of network and volumes i would say)

Hindsight is 20/20. Although why aren't assignments just a pdf

"This code has multiple faults. Your task is to find and fix them all."

> They are putting a financial incentive behind accurately predicting the future, which makes these apps basically the most accurate predictor of the future. Available to anyone to view, for free.

Here, let me predict a future where someone will die. On the other side, let me pay for a hit on the same person. /s

^It's a bit extreme and exaggerated, but it's like that on purpose to make a point.

markets on people dying are not allowed for this exact reason

are hackers really this bad at thinking of edge cases and unintended outcomes, I thought that was like half our job. markets on dying are just the most obvious one. how about how many wildfires there will be this year? https://krcrtv.com/news/local/gallagher-joins-bipartisan-bil... Or the results of clinical trials? https://www.npr.org/2026/08/07/nx-s1-5922530/patients-bettin... Or when we will invade a country? https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/us-soldier-charged-using-clas...

I think even if the moat dries up, you could think of tokens/inference similar to compute. There's all the open source tooling available in the world for you to rent your own bare metal servers/racks and use a white glove service, yet there is demand for cloud.

At current prices, it makes sense to self host, but if the price goes down and the demand grows across different verticals, there is room for this business.

Do those doxxed victims have significant power over an average person?

With great power comes greater responsibilities

The whole epitome of this thread is that my enemies got doxx'd and so now I shall jump through dozens of logical hoops in order to justify it.

Oh, also, if you're not happy with this, you obviously must agree with everything they are doing.

> If those employees didn't do anything wrong, they have nothing to worry about.

That's the line I responded to, in case you didn't read it.

That is the line govt uses/used to justify mass surveillance. OP is just flipping the table?

> They didn't copy the texts per-se, they studied the relationships between words to build a statistical/predictive model of natural language

This is doing a lot of heavy lifting, especially when you consider the scale

Majority of the people at my company switched to Codex. All it goes to show is that performance difference at this point is minute and is a matter of taste

That was true before Opus 5.5, not anymore

Supported by Stripe? :thinking:

Why be rude on purpose? OP clearly prefaced by saying it was a dumb question

They will also need mother nature to co-operate. Last winter was brutal in terms of snow, we barely had any snow the year before that!

Why is this on the front page? The article doesn't really have any new insights

People upvote, the link goes up. The HN front page has never been based on new insights or something similar, it’s just a reflection of what the audience vote for. In this case it’s likely because people here like simonw, who is a known high quality contributor

(author) Yeah, this is a pretty straight-forward link blog piece. It's not really right for HN.

I think this blog gets some special treatment on HN.

From what I can find it doesn’t but he is the most popular poster here (and one of the most prolific) and ex YC

wasn't the original posted yesterday? This is just a link to it with minor comments with nothing new.
