New ask Hacker News story: Ask HN: LLM-Based Spam Filter

Ask HN: LLM-Based Spam Filter 3 by michidk | 0 comments on Hacker News. Is there a spam filter software out there that connect via IMAP to inboxes and uses LLMs to classify them? I currently use MailWasher Prot but their spam classification is really not that great.

New ask Hacker News story: Ask HN: I don't get why Anthropic is limiting usage

Ask HN: I don't get why Anthropic is limiting usage 2 by ud0 | 4 comments on Hacker News. I’m trying to understand the rationale behind Anthropic limiting certain types of third-party usage, e.g., OpenClaw From a naive perspective, more usage should mean more revenue since customers pay per token. So why restrict it? If a third party is generating heavy usage, isn’t that ultimately beneficial for revenue and growth? What other factors are they considering that are not immediately obvious? If I sold shoes, I'd be happy to sell more regardless of how many resellers are down the chain.

New ask Hacker News story: Write Your Own Copy

Write Your Own Copy 5 by operatingthetan | 0 comments on Hacker News. Every day I'm seeing people making websites for the sole purpose of posting to HN, and it's all AI. The site, the words, the ideas. Obviously that person had the idea to begin with, but the execution is slop. These people are putting their names on this stuff, and everyone in the world right now is learning to recognize the tells of AI writing. The tone, the abstractness, the specific phrasing. We all know it. It's a turn off. So my idea is simple: write your own copy. That's an advantage now. It's becoming scarce today. Be real. Whatever that means to you.

Ask HN: How Do You Relax? 4 by azeirah | 1 comments on Hacker News. Bit of a different question than most of what usually gets discussed on HN, but I find myself occupied with work a lot and while I enjoy it a lot, it's draining. On top of that, I have ADHD, which makes it more difficult for me to really relax. What do you do for relaxation?

Ask HN: Are agents _still_ writing most of your code? 3 by etamponi | 2 comments on Hacker News. At the beginning it was very cool to see them write a lot of code for me, in particular while I was ramping up on a new codebase. But I am seeing myself using agents less and less as I get more acquainted with the codebase. I might use them as a glorified copy n paste or to get a tool running. And they're indeed very useful to get the gist of a part of the code I don't fully grasp. But I am back to writing I'd say 90% of the code myself. Is this your experience as well?
