Sorry I thought this was more common, it’s definitely wall Street bets

To me, spying and spying on the public en masse are very different things

I think we should all care about what misinformation is spread to what people

Put me in my place if this is nonsense but doesn’t it make way more sense if the astroturfing is done by WSB goons? I just don’t see corporate entities coordinating this kind of thing

What kind of ways, can you explain?

Is there any evidence that Palantir the company aggregates data across contractual boundaries? Everything I’ve seen indicates the reverse: it’s a glorified hosted data storage solution with workflows built on top

Source? I’ve never heard about pal being used for disinformation

Ex pal people are on slack, not discord. This is probably an investor server

If I’m reading this right, you would basically say that any company that helps government institutions spy on people is awful, is that right?

What shady stuff are you talking about may I ask?

I gave you the up vote because it’s a good take, but this really has nothing to do with the article, so I can tell that you and a bunch of your 58 up voters didn’t read it
- Comment on My AI Skeptic Friends Are All Nuts 2 weeks ago:
This guy (a founding engineer of fly.io) isn’t claiming his 10x status in the article on the grounds that he uses AI
Indeed, he’s claiming that he gets value from AI despite being a 10xer without it

- Comment on OpenAI's annualized revenue hits $10 billion, up from $5.5 billion in December 2024 2 weeks ago:
Revenue is a standard unit of measurement for any venture backed business because it gauges interest and growth better than profit does

- I’m not really interested in trying to burn anyone and despite my nuanced understanding of the Luddites, I do think dismissing a Luddite take in the context of technological progress is legitimate
- I care about ethics and governance too but I live in a capitalist society and I’m here to discuss the merits of a technology
- Comment on My AI Skeptic Friends Are All Nuts 3 weeks ago:
This is a pretty good take imo
Like AI, IoT is an important and lasting technology
But too many businesses and products jumped on a misguided bandwagon to pull stupid uniformed VC money
- Comment on Cloudflare built an oauth provider with Claude 3 weeks ago:
You should look into how Dieselgate worked
I don’t think you understand my take
I guess that makes it a bad analogy
- Comment on My AI Skeptic Friends Are All Nuts 3 weeks ago:
Replace AI with Excel in your argument and repeat it again. Do you see how silly you sound?
- Comment on My AI Skeptic Friends Are All Nuts 3 weeks ago:
If this dev doesn’t do it, the next one will
This dev is analytical enough to understand basic incentive modeling and game theory. Capitalism is a race to the bottom no less now than it always was.
- Comment on My AI Skeptic Friends Are All Nuts 3 weeks ago:
This is a brilliant take. Whoever designed my car’s screen system can kick rocks

I think this take undervalues the AI. I think we self select for high quality code and high quality engineers
But many of us would absolutely gawk at something like Dieselgate. That is real code running in production on safety critical machinery.
I’m basically convinced that Claude would have done better
- Comment on Cloudflare built an oauth provider with Claude 3 weeks ago:
Agreed. It creates a new normal for what the engineer needs to actually know. In another comment I claimed that the same was true at the advent of stack overflow
- Comment on Cloudflare built an oauth provider with Claude 3 weeks ago:
Agreed, and yet the AI accelerated the project
- Comment on Cloudflare built an oauth provider with Claude 3 weeks ago:
I hear you, and there’s merit to the concerns. My counter is
The same was true at the Advent of books, the Internet, and stack overflow It’s Luddite to refuse progress and tools based on an argument about long term societal impact. The reality is that capitalism will choose the path of least resistance

Quoting from the repo:
This library (including the schema documentation) was largely written with the help of Claude, the AI model by Anthropic. Claude’s output was thoroughly reviewed by Cloudflare engineers with careful attention paid to security and compliance with standards. Many improvements were made on the initial output, mostly again by prompting Claude (and reviewing the results). Check out the commit history to see how Claude was prompted and what code it produced.
“NOOOOOOOO!!! You can’t just use an LLM to write an auth library!”
“haha gpus go brrr”
In all seriousness, two months ago (January 2025), I (@kentonv) would have agreed. I was an AI skeptic. I thoughts LLMs were glorified Markov chain generators that didn’t actually understand code and couldn’t produce anything novel. I started this project on a lark, fully expecting the AI to produce terrible code for me to laugh at. And then, uh… the code actually looked pretty good. Not perfect, but I just told the AI to fix things, and it did. I was shocked.
To emphasize, this is not “vibe coded”. Every line was thoroughly reviewed and cross-referenced with relevant RFCs, by security experts with previous experience with those RFCs. I was trying to validate my skepticism. I ended up proving myself wrong.
Again, please check out the commit history – especially early commits – to understand how this went.

Do you think that human communication is more than statistical transformation of input to output?
