I'm disappointed this wasn't a joke about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_property

HN is normal HTML, so I think that's fair to call 'plaintext'

I write down the time I run out of tokens each day and pray my employer will pay for more

Source?

Look up independent tests of the new tokenizer for opus 4.7. I don’t think it was double, more like 140%ish of Opus 4.6.

I can’t imagine being mad that the data collection company that I work for now wants data on _me_

Really though it seems reasonable to me. They want data to train AI, and their employees are obviously a large source.

They could already track your every click. They have root on your work MacBook. Most employers do.

Could they at least have a page somewhere letting us know what we’re allowed to do today?

Closed systems are fundamentally more secure. Principle of least privilege demonstrates this

I’m slowly switching to codex simply because Claude code is closed source and I want to hack on my harness.

I was curious what happened after the incident yesterday (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47769796)

> To be clear, this is not a cyber incident. Fiverr does not proactively expose users' private information. The content in question was shared by users in the normal course of marketplace activity to showcase work samples, under agreements and approvals between buyers and sellers. This type of content requires the buyer's consent before it can be uploaded. As always, any request to remove content is handled promptly by our team.

This is... not a great response

In legal terms, it’s interpretable as “don’t fault us for user-generated content”. While that may technically be correct, to host their UGC upload directory on an indexable share is — voluntary or involuntary — either cloud incompetence or cloud negligence. The work samples between a buyer and a seller should never have been made default-public through any process controlled by Fiverr, but certainly I’ll concede it’s both simpler and cheaper to do it through no-auth links and then externalize liability onto their customers.

I loved that course so much but it was incredibly difficult to do while also working
