Imagine you have a dam. Fish want to get through the floodgates, but the gates are locked. You want to open the gates when a fish wants to pass through.
If you are a tech bro, you might say “we can use AI to solve this problem”
If you are the municipality of Utrecht, you instead say “what if we put a livestream of the canal on the internet and instructed viewers to push a button when they see one”

Somebody should make a messaging app with read receipts for read receipts so I can know that they know that I know that they know that I know that they know that I know that they know that I read their message

I also just wish to stress that by visiting archive.today or related web properties your device is being used as a participent in a DDoS attack against Jani. archive.today is not safe to use. 🧵
Interesting video where two of the most powerful AI models spend over $15,000 in order to make $100

The HN thread discovering this covert attempt was posted by no other than "rabinovich", a user which shares the name of the POI: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46624740
Furthermore, the Masharabinovich Wikipedia account has reactivated for the first time in 10 years to purge their talk page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Masharabinovich
Now, we still don't know if this Masha Rabinovich is an alias, but the evidence that this person is indeed the creator of archive.is is too great to ignore, and clearly Jani touched a nerve 🧵

But what's really interesting is the motivations.
- Why now, after 2 years?
- Why run a DDoS, and yet defend Jani in the comments?: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46629823
- Why register for a forum using your "name" to draw attention to a DDoS being ran by your own site?
This seems like a ploy for attention. Perhaps the FBI has finally found him and Masha wants to go out on his own terms?: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2025/11/fbi-subpoena-tries-to-unmask-mysterious-founder-of-archive-today/
Perhaps Masha is a fake name and the real name leaked so he wants to publicize Masha? 🧵

interestingly the code used in the DDoS has changed between today and yesterday:

@jik@federate.social my best guess is that the captcha page just isn't something people think to inspect. it is a very brief page the user will only ever encounter on a journey, a page that they strive to move through as efficiently as possible. Furthermore it *looks* like a cloudflare captcha so users are very familiar with it (it is not a cloudflare page).
@cy@chaos.social I don't know, both are pretty tragic
So the chainsmokers really just lied when they said we ain’t ever getting older
buying a 100 dollar bestbuy gift card on amazon for 70 dollars and then getting 3% in cashback on my card. This cashback I will use to buy more gift cards for 10-15% off. I will also use my card's 4% bestbuy rebate offer. It is truly amazing how little meaning the statement "a dollar" has anymore

The boomer next to me asked a question addressed at a YouTuber’s wife to YouTube’s AI chat bot, reset his password to the admin page of what appeared to be a nuclear power company, and then tabbed over to Facebook and clicked on an AI hydraulic press video.
