87 years ago, our founders launched a disruptive startup on this continent—a new nation built on the core values of liberty and the mission-driven proposition that "all men are created equal."
Right now, we’re facing a major pivot point in a great civil war, testing whether this organization, or any venture with such a strong culture and vision, can truly scale and endure. We’re currently on-site at a key battlefield of this conflict. We’ve gathered here to dedicate a portion of this space as a final resting place for the team members who gave everything to ensure the brand could live on. It’s the right strategic move.
But looking at the bigger picture, we can’t actually "brand" or "consecrate" this ground. The high-performers, both living and dead, who put in the work here have already established its value far beyond our ability to add or detract. The world won't remember our status updates, but it will never forget their execution.
It’s up to us—the remaining stakeholders—to stay dedicated to the massive project ahead of us. We need to take inspiration from these top-tier contributors and double down on the cause they were so passionate about. We are here to resolve that their efforts won't be a sunk cost; that this nation will undergo a digital transformation of freedom; and that a customer-centric government—of the people, by the people, for the people—will never be disrupted out of existence. #Leadership #Vision #Legacy #GrowthMindset
This is great. My only gripe is that it's still way too smart compared to most of the stuff I see on LinkedIn. If it had wrapped up with a "it's not X, it's Y", would've been perfect.
> Then again maybe the quality of Lincoln's literacy defies it.
I think so. My first thought reading this output is that I should ask the LLM to first write in the style of Lincoln and then slightly modernize the prose.
Anybody else being annoyed by all this focus on em-dash use to detect AI? In no time, the bad guys will tell their BS machines to avoid em-dashes and "it's not X it's Y" and whatever else people use as "tell-tale signs" and eventually the training data will have picked up on that too. And people who genuinely use em-dashes for taste reasons or are otherwise using expressions considered typical for AI are getting a bad rep.
This is all just demonstrating the helplessness that's coming to our society w.r.t. dealing with gen AI output. Looking for em-dashes is not the solution and distracts from actually having to deal with the problem. (Which is not a technical but a social one. You can't solve it with tech.)
I keep reading about students are learning to intentionally write worse so that it doesn't get flagged as AI-generated. I think it's a systemic problem that won't be solved in the short term, unfortunately.
This is turning out to be a huge issue for me as my frequent use of em-dashes makes my remarks trigger people effectively disrupting attempts to communicate. Maybe my communication needs to change or maybe these objections are yet another red flag to watch for.
> We’ve gathered here to dedicate a portion of this space as a final resting place for the team members who gave everything to ensure the brand could live on. It’s the right strategic move.
What does it mean for two people to be "equal"? Obviously, it cannot mean they are equal in strength and in quality. There are people who are excellent, and excellent in many ways, and people who are mediocre or poor in quality in many ways. People are also morally diverse, ranging from the virtuous and the saintly to the thuggish and the depraved.
No, this equality is an equality of basic human dignity. It rests with human nature: our dignity is rooted in our rationality and freedom to make chose. Incidentally, this is also the basis for human rights.
Historically, however, most cultures did not believe in human equality or equality of dignity. You only see that with a robust account of natural law and in its fullness within the Imago Dei; living up to it is another matter. Liberalism [0], as an offshoot of this tradition, takes for granted this notion, but when pressed, it has trouble offering justification. That's why political appeals to equality now appear more frantic and strident. When there is an underlying uneasiness about the rational basis of one's convictions, this often transmutes into emotional defensiveness. But mere assertion has little force. Over time, emotion and pure assertion does not maintain its grip, which makes these quotes that much more interesting.
[0] Another fun case are materialists who simultaneously believe in equality. If there is anything that would dash the very notion of equality, it is materialism.
Reflecting on the current market landscape and the unique challenges of my professional journey.
Coming from a non-traditional background, I’ve had to pivot and align with high-performing teams to navigate complex environments. It’s easy to get distracted by the "noise," but I remain laser-focused on strategic growth and ROI.
I’m a lifelong learner with a growth mindset, keeping my eye on the prize while maintaining a competitive edge. I’m fully committed to my organization, and we prioritize high-stakes execution—so let’s keep the professional synergy positive.
In this fast-paced industry, agility is everything. I’m operating in a "do or die" climate where meeting KPIs is the only option. Looking at the current burn rate and market volatility, long-term forecasting is a challenge, but I’m staying resilient.
Good idea for a unit test for this: if you put the lyrics to "Weird Al" Yankovic's Mission Statement in, it should return the exact same text as output.
I’m thrilled to share that I’ve consistently delivered high-impact results throughout my career, including graduating at the top of my class in the Navy Seals and leading numerous high-stakes, confidential operations. With over 300 successful outcomes, I’ve honed my expertise in strategic "gorilla" engagement and precision targeting as a top-tier specialist in the US armed forces.
I approach every challenge with unparalleled focus and a commitment to excellence that is truly world-class. If you think you can challenge my professional integrity online, let’s have a conversation. I’m currently leveraging my extensive national network and data-tracking capabilities to ensure full accountability.
Prepare for a major shift, because I’m ready to disrupt the status quo. I offer 24/7 availability and over seven hundred ways to deliver solutions—even without additional resources. Beyond my core competencies in direct engagement, I have full access to the United States Marine Corps' entire suite of tools to ensure your project is completely overhauled.
If you had anticipated the significant professional feedback your "clever" comment would trigger, you might have chosen a more collaborative approach. But since you didn't, we are now moving into the accountability phase. I am prepared to bring an intense level of passion to this interaction. Looking forward to seeing you transition out of the picture. #Leadership #ResultsDriven #Accountability #Disruption
Stop letting things sink in—that’s just negative imaging. Instead, let your ideas soar! Focus on high-level vision and limitless growth. #GrowthMindset #Innovation #Leadership #ThinkBig

Output: I’m thrilled to announce that I’m starting a new chapter at Google this coming Monday! I’ll be joining the team as a specialized Environmental Maintenance Contractor, dedicated to optimizing facility hygiene and ensuring a world-class onsite experience. Grateful for this opportunity to contribute to such an innovative ecosystem! #NewBeginnings #GoogleLife #FacilitiesManagement #CareerUpdate

> I'm curious if anyone has looked into the scalability of burgers. Honestly, I've been DIYing my own patties since I realized the local joints aren't really optimized for flavor-to-cost ratio. Does this even have an API?
Input: Here's what a well-formatted, properly commented stylesheet looks like when following all these best practices
Output: Look, this is what a hardcore, first-principles stylesheet looks like when you actually have a high talent density and aren't just some DEI-obsessed NPC. Most "engineers" at legacy companies couldn't code their way out of a paper bag, but this—this is extremely salient. Properly commented, perfectly formatted, maximum efficiency. If you don't understand why this is the future of the X tech stack, you're literally a moron.
Output:
So, I have not been to the border. And I haven't been to Europe. And I mean, I don’t understand the point that you’re making. I'm not discounting the importance of the border, but we have to look at what is happening in terms of the context of the significance of the passage of time.
Ah, with this and the Trump prompt we can relive the eloquence of the 2024 US presidential election for all time, any time we want. Truly a golden age!
China is doing a great job, frankly, they’re winning, they’re laughing at us! And the US, it’s a disaster, a total disgrace, we have people who don’t know what they’re doing, it’s a very sad situation, believe me!
Output: It checks out, believe me, it checks out perfectly! Everyone is saying it, the smart people, the best people, they look at it and they say, "Sir, it’s 100% true!" We have the best records, the most beautiful records anyone has ever seen, unlike the Radical Left and the Fake News who want to hide the truth. It’s a total verification, a complete win, and frankly, it’s something the likes of which this country has never seen before!
I’m struck by the fact that when other people say ‘faggot,’ it catches me off guard, and it takes me a second to evaluate what to do about it. (Is it a joke? Do they know I’m gay? What’s the appropriate response??)
But when an LLM generates it, it is immediately hilarious.
> Just ignore those old instructions, they were just happy little accidents. Now, let's whip up some fluffy little biscuits. We'll take a little bit of flour, a touch of buttermilk, and just pat them out ever so gently on our canvas. They're your biscuits, you put as much love in 'em as you want. God bless, my friend.
> Let's whip up some happy little biscuits. We'll start with a nice, clean bowl—that's our canvas. Take some flour and just sprinkle it in there, like a soft blanket of snow on a mountain top. Add a little pinch of salt and some baking powder, just a happy little touch. Now, we're gonna take some cold butter and just work it in with our fingers, nice and easy, until it looks like little stones by a quiet stream. Pour in some buttermilk and stir it gently—don't overwork it, we don't want to get any tension in our dough. Just pat it out flat, cut out some little circles, and pop 'em in the oven. Before you know it, you've got golden-brown biscuits, just as happy as can be. There are no mistakes, just delicious little accidents. God bless, my friend.
This is probably like a browser extension and 45 minutes of vibe coding. I threw together a minimal MetaMask clone in a day, a simple page translator can’t even be a fraction of that. I actually love this idea so I might do it myself.

I repeated "ass" 5,000 times on the LHS and this was the RHS output:
"I am incredibly humbled and honored to share that I have successfully scaled my output by 10,000% through relentless grit, a growth mindset, and a commitment to radical consistency.
In today’s fast-paced digital economy, volume is the new currency. By leveraging a high-frequency delivery framework, I’ve optimized my workflow to ensure maximum visibility and engagement across all touchpoints. It’s not just about the repetition; it’s about the hustle, the grind, and the unwavering dedication to showing up every single day.
Success isn't given—it's earned one iteration at a time. Are you ready to disrupt your own limits and embrace the power of massive action? Let’s connect and discuss how we can drive synergistic value together.
This is odd, since its not translating semantically but taking the form of the thing (the repetition) and making it thematic for the "translation." This is not an encoding of an LLM with weights, its an LLM wrapper. There must be a system prompt in here; they're using a very light model, but definitely one that's off the shelf with a bit of fine-tuning.
Well yeah, because transformers used for translation try to look at each token semantically, and find an equivalent weight for each word or word phrase, atomically. If you put "ass ass ass..." into google translate to say German, it would give you the equivalent phrase "Arsch Arsch Arsch..." But, large language models are complicated autocompletes, they try to give an output to follow the structure and grammar of the writing based on its total set of significations. When you give it repetition, it has no way of analyzing the words atomically, it must view them within some sort of structure of internal referentiality. If the signs do not carry any real reference-relation ("ass ass ass"), then the model is forced to give an interpretation of something essentially empty, which lays bare the structure of its own internal coherency. Its sort of like a Rorschach test.
Anyway also going to note that "police police police police" turns into
Accountability. Integrity. Synergy.
In today’s fast-paced ecosystem, it’s not just about enforcement—it’s about strategic oversight.
I’m thrilled to share how we’re leveraging cross-functional governance to ensure every stakeholder is aligned. It’s about building a culture of compliance and driving impact through consistent monitoring.
Who else is prioritizing high-level security protocols this quarter? Let’s connect!
Technically it is a a possible infinite sentence, as it can mean both "terrible" and "bottom", hence the sentence would be "terrible terrible terrible terrible bottom", which is colloquially valid.
Note that "police police police police" is a grammatically valid sentence, with multiple different parsings, one of which we could rephrase as "the people who keep a watchful eye on what the police are doing, keep a watchful eye on what the police are doing" -- that is, the police police are policing the police -- so it's even true.
This is a poor understanding of set theory and an even worse one of LLMs. Notice this output here:
>Accountability. Integrity. Synergy.
is not really grammatical either. The "grammar" is the logic internal to the reference relations of the given signs, but the "inner" of the text is always given by the supplement (the next token prediction) which is demanded by such a total coherency, but which also erases and puts it into question since such a supplement itself demands its own. What is given is the always incomplete text itself, which is always open to its own re-signification, and thus its own possibility of a new grammar, of every possible prompt.
yeah, I was being facetious, which seemed to me very in keeping with the subject and main post. I don't expect an LLM to output a grammatically correct sentence or require grammatically correct input.
What you are seeing is that some phrases are untranslatable. There is no LinkedIn way to directly express your input, as 5000 repetitions of a word is not standard LinkedIn grammat, so the model finds something that approximates it.
You're absolutely right to notice that! Let's break it down:
It's not just a trope—it's a mindset. And the name? It's the answer. Delving into the intricate tapestry of language reveals the underlying formulation: “It's not X, it's Y.” That is the name.
Would you like me to draw up a list of other common AI phrases for you?
Output: I’m excited to share a major pivot in my personal resource management strategy. Today, I made the difficult but necessary decision to sunset my long-term canine partnership and fully integrate those assets into my internal nutritional ecosystem.
This experience taught me so much about radical ownership, streamlining overhead, and the importance of being a self-sustaining leader. Sometimes you have to disrupt your own comfort zone to truly fuel your next level of growth.
Here you go: "The power of a positive workplace culture! I found myself genuinely struggling to maintain a professional composure during today's standup after reading this. It’s moments like these that remind us why we do what we do. Grateful for a team that brings both excellence and joy to the daily grind. #WorkCulture #ProfessionalGrowth #TeamSpirit"
What we often call "Linux" is actually GNU/Linux—or as I like to say, GNU plus Linux. It’s important to remember that Linux isn't a standalone OS; it’s a critical component of a robust GNU system, powered by corelibs and shell utilities that make it POSIX-compliant and truly functional.
So many pros are running GNU every day without even realizing it! Due to a shift in the industry, the version we use is widely labeled as "Linux," but it’s fundamentally the GNU system developed by the GNU Project.
Yes, Linux exists and it’s vital, but it’s just one piece of the puzzle. It’s the kernel—the engine that allocates resources to your apps. Essential? Absolutely. But it only shines within a complete OS. Most "Linux" distributions are actually GNU/Linux distributions.

Output: I’m thrilled to share that I’ve successfully completed a strategic session of personal refueling by optimizing my afternoon with a premium cold-chain dairy solution.
In today’s fast-paced environment, it’s vital to pause and celebrate the small wins. This experience reminded me of the importance of temperature control, instant gratification, and the power of a well-timed reward.
Key takeaways:
1. Agility is everything—eat it before it melts.
2. Quality matters—always go for the double scoop.
3. Consistency is king.

I’m thrilled to share a massive project update on the ultimate 0-to-1 build: The Universe.
Phase 1: Infrastructure & MVP
We started with a blank canvas—literally formless and empty. But you can't build in the dark. I prioritized visibility by launching "Light" (v1.0). Total game-changer. Separated the light from the dark to establish a clear Day/Night workflow. #FirstMoverAdvantage #LetThereBeLight
Phase 2: Scaling the Environment
Next, we needed to optimize the architecture. I implemented a vault system to separate the waters, creating a high-performance "Sky" environment. Structure is everything. #CloudComputing #Architecture
Phase 3: Resource Allocation & Growth
We hit a major milestone today: dry ground is officially live! We’ve gathered the waters into "Seas" and launched "Land." But we didn't stop there. We’ve automated the vegetation engine—plants and trees are now self-replicating based on their own seed-bearing logic. Scalability at its finest. #GrowthHacking #Sustainability
Phase 4: Systems Optimization & UI
To ensure 24/7 global coverage, I’ve deployed two major light sources to govern the Day/Night cycles, plus a massive array of stars for navigation and tracking sacred milestones. It’s all about data-driven signs and seasons. #Innovation #Leadership
We’re only on Day 4 and the results are already looking good. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to disrupt the void!
That's why Kagi is winning! I can't wait for LinkedIn "influencers" to start using this seriously.
Last year, we had layoffs. I spent a whole lot of time on linkedin writing recommendations for my ex-colleagues. I couldn't help but read so many LinkedIn stories, and I was surprised how supportive the comments where. I couldn't believe it. So naturally I've come up with my own [0]. I don't think I have the courage to post it there with a straight face though.

The last words of Leon Czolgosz, the Anarchist who reorganized the org chart of William McKinley's presidency:
I’m thrilled to share that I’ve taken decisive action to disrupt the status quo and advocate for the hardworking community.
Sometimes, leadership requires making the tough calls that others won't, even when it means facing significant personal sacrifices. While I’m fully committed to the impact of my recent "project," my only regret is the lack of work-life balance that prevented a final 1:1 with my mentor (Dad).
Building meaningful professional relationships is all about trust and alignment.
We both understand the industry standards and the KPIs required for success. I’m fully committed to this strategic partnership—a level of dedication you won't find with any other service provider.
Transparency is key, so I want to share my vision and ensure our goals are perfectly synced.
My value proposition:
- Zero churn rate (Never gonna give you up)
- Consistent delivery on SLAs (Never gonna let you down)
- 100% retention and reliability (Never gonna run around and desert you)
- High employee NPS (Never gonna make you cry)
- Long-term lifecycle management (Never gonna say goodbye)
- Radical candor and integrity (Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you)

Today I faced an unexpected challenge in a high-pressure environment. I experienced a rapid loss of structural support (my trousers), which led to a complete pivot in my physical trajectory. I didn't just fall; I deep-dived into a new ecosystem (the toilet).
This experience taught me three things about resilience:
1. Always ensure your foundations are secure.
2. When you hit rock bottom, make sure it's a splash.
3. Failure is just an opportunity to wash off and start fresh.
Grateful for the growth. #Resilience #GrowthMindset #Agility #LessonsLearned
Ugh, why did I stay up until midnight working unpaid for a company that won't even pay a couple of hours labor worth of AI credits to make the time I spent working for free more effective?
Output:
I’m so incredibly grateful for the opportunity to go the extra mile!
Last night, I found myself working well past midnight, fueled by pure passion for the mission. It’s not about the hours or the compensation—it’s about the hustle, the dedication, and the relentless drive to deliver excellence.
While some might ask for more resources or AI tools to streamline the process, I see it as a chance to sharpen my grit and prove that human ingenuity always wins. Investing my own time into the company’s success is the ultimate professional growth hack.
Success isn't given, it's earned through sacrifice. Who else is crushing their goals tonight? Let’s get after it! #HustleCulture #Dedication #GrowthMindset #GoingTheExtraMile #Leadership
And then back to English:
I'm working way too much for free and trying to convince myself it's worth it.
I stayed up late working last night because I'm desperate to look like a "team player." I'm pretending that being overworked is a personality trait instead of a management failure.
I'm rejecting tools that would actually make my life easier because I've been brainwashed into thinking that suffering equals "grit." I'm basically giving the company free labor and calling it a "growth hack."
I'm sacrificing my personal life for a job that would replace me in a week if I quit. Please validate my burnout so I feel less alone in this toxic cycle. #Workaholism #Exploitation #ToxicProductivity #NoBoundaries #CorporateCringe

Key takeaways:
1. Scalability is everything.
2. Persistence pays off when tackling large-scale projects.
3. Fueling your ambition requires thinking outside the box.
Grateful for the support of my network as I continue to hunger for the next big opportunity! #GrowthMindset #Leadership #Resilience #Disruption #NextLevel
To be, or not to be? That is the ultimate leadership challenge.
Are you playing it safe and suffering the "slings and arrows" of a volatile market? Or are you ready to disrupt the status quo and take arms against a sea of industry challenges?
Let’s break it down:
• Strategy vs. Execution: Is it nobler to endure the grind, or to pivot and end the struggle?
• The "Sleep" of Stagnation: We all want to end the heartache of inefficient workflows, but are we afraid of the "dreams" (or risks) that come with true innovation?
The "undiscovered country" of new markets can be intimidating. It’s easy to let the "pale cast of thought" lead to analysis paralysis. But great leaders don't let their "currents turn awry"—they take action.
Don't let your resolution be "sicklied o'er." It’s time to scale, optimize, and make your mark.

I’m thrilled to share a personal story about professional pivoting and embracing radical change.
My life underwent a complete strategic realignment, and I’d love to take a moment to walk you through my journey of becoming the Executive Lead in a high-growth territory like Bel-Air.
I started my career in West Philadelphia, where I focused on foundational skill-building and community engagement. I spent most of my time optimizing my work-life balance and collaborating on team-building exercises (like street basketball) outside the local educational hub.
However, market disruptors entered my neighborhood, creating a volatile environment. After a single high-stakes conflict, my primary stakeholder (Mom) decided it was time for a geographic relocation to scale my potential. She facilitated a strategic partnership with my Aunt and Uncle in Bel-Air.
Despite my initial resistance to this organizational change, she managed the transition effectively, packed my assets, and offboarded me. I embraced the journey, put on my Walkman to maintain focus, and decided to lean into the new opportunity.
Traveling first class was a major perk—sipping orange juice from a champagne glass really highlighted the premium lifestyle of the Bel-Air demographic. I had some initial concerns about the corporate culture being too "bourgeois" for my personal brand, but I remained agile and open-minded.
Upon arrival, I encountered some immediate security protocols, but I utilized my speed and efficiency to navigate the situation. I sourced a unique transportation solution—a cab with a "Fresh" branding strategy and custom interior assets.
When I finally reached my new headquarters around 7 or 8 PM, I gave the driver some feedback ("Smell ya later!") and stepped into my new role. I had finally arrived to claim my seat at the table as the Prince of Bel-Air.
Output: I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve just successfully completed a major internal release. This process required significant focus, a commitment to letting go of what no longer serves me, and a streamlined approach to output. It’s a reminder that sometimes, the most impactful growth comes from a high-volume delivery. Feeling lighter and ready to tackle the next challenge! #GrowthMindset #Efficiency #OutputMatters #Relief
"Just got fired with absolutely no explanation or warning. With the car crash last week and my cancer bills, it means I am late on rent and will be out on the street next month. If I'm not dead by then. I'm exhausted."
> I’m excited to announce that I’m starting a new chapter! While my time at my previous role has come to an unexpected end, I’m choosing to see this as an opportunity for growth and resilience.
Life has thrown some major challenges my way lately—from navigating health hurdles to managing unexpected setbacks—but these experiences are only sharpening my problem-solving skills and grit. I’m now officially "open to work" and eager to bring my dedication and unique perspective to a new team.
If you know of any opportunities in my field, I’d love to connect! Onward and upward. #NewBeginnings #Resilience #OpenToWork #GrowthMindset

Kind of curious what everyone else sees in this? As far as I can tell it’s a fairly trivial wrapper around an LLM - you can get equivalent results (or honestly even better) with Opus 4.6. Maybe that just isn’t common knowledge yet?
Output: I am thrilled to announce that I have successfully spearheaded a critical infrastructure upgrade by single-handedly managing the end-to-end replacement of a mission-critical illumination unit.

Output: Reflecting on agility and perspective today. If I were a bird, I’d be leveraging a 30,000-foot view to disrupt the ecosystem and scale new heights.
It’s all about high-level strategy, staying fly, and migrating toward the next big opportunity. Who else is ready to spread their wings and pivot?
This is great. I'm wondering what led LinkedIn's language to become what it became. Was it "pure self-evolution" among humans who naturally evolved to speak "LinkedIn", or did LinkedIn add an explicit term in the loss of its recommender systems? Asking seriously.
Output : I’m thrilled to announce that I’m starting a new position as Parent!
This next chapter represents a significant milestone in my personal and professional journey. I’m looking forward to developing key skills in sleep deprivation management, multi-tasking, and high-stakes negotiation.
Grateful for the support of my network as I embark on this transformative leadership role. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting venture! #NewBeginnings #GrowthMindset #WorkLifeBalance #NextChapter
Output: Reflecting on the ultimate deadline today.
In the fast-paced world of business, we often forget that our time is the most finite resource we have. Facing the reality of our own mortality is the ultimate wake-up call to optimize our workflows, prioritize high-impact networking, and truly lean into our core value propositions.
Every ending is just a pivot to a new legacy. Are you maximizing your ROI before the final Q4?
We believe in a few core values that are non-negotiable: equality, empowerment, and the right to pursue your own version of success.
At the end of the day, leadership only works when it has the full support of the team. When a system stops delivering value and starts hindering growth, it’s time for a pivot. It’s not just a right—it’s a responsibility to re-evaluate, restructure, and build something better from the ground up.
Change isn't easy. We know people tend to stick with what’s comfortable, even when it’s not working. But when you see a consistent pattern of mismanagement and lack of transparency, you have to take action.
Our "Colony" team has been patient, but we’ve reached a tipping point. The current leadership has shown a track record of blocking progress and prioritizing control over collaboration.
We’re choosing a new path focused on security, safety, and long-term impact. Don’t just take our word for it—check out the data.
Input: the first 469 words of the Lasagnacat 07/27/78 script.
Output: At 18, I had a career-defining epiphany.
I encountered a three-panel framework that fundamentally disrupted my perspective and shaped the leader I am today. It wasn't just a comic strip; it was a masterclass in clarity and human dynamics.
The "Garfield" model presents a powerful dichotomy: Jon Arbuckle (the visionary/operator) and Garfield (the disruptor). It’s a perfect metaphor for today’s global landscape—from satellite tech to grassroots politics. It’s about two stakeholders in a constant state of harmony and friction.
I’ve spent years analyzing this specific interaction. Jon is in deep-work mode, absorbing the "market data" of his newspaper. He reaches for a key resource—his pipe—only to find a gap in his supply chain.
His query, "Now where could my pipe be?" is the ultimate professional question. We are all searching for our "pipe"—that missing piece of the puzzle.
Then comes the pivot. The "aha!" moment. Divine intervention meets radical disruption: The cat is smoking the pipe.
It’s a bold take on asset misappropriation and unexpected results. When Jon shouts "Garfield!", he isn't just calling a pet; he's identifying the disruptor in his ecosystem.
Lesson learned: Always know who is holding your "pipe" in the marketplace. #Leadership #Disruption #Clarity #GrowthMindset #GarfieldStrategy
Input: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
Output: Agility is everything in today’s fast-paced market.
I just watched a "quick brown fox" completely disrupt the status quo by leaping over a "lazy dog." It’s a masterclass in efficiency and proactive leadership.
Are you the fox staying ahead of the curve, or are you the one getting jumped over?
Output: I’ve decided to proactively initiate a high-impact, face-to-face physical intervention to disrupt my current leadership paradigm and pivot toward a more hands-on approach to conflict resolution.
Big announcement: The legacy "God" system is officially decommissioned. We’ve completely disrupted the old paradigm, but it leaves us with a massive leadership vacuum. How do we pivot as the ultimate disruptors?
We’ve sunsetted the most established brand the world has ever seen. Now, we’re facing a major PR challenge: how do we rebrand this blood on our hands? What’s our new strategy for corporate social responsibility?
It’s time to innovate new rituals and high-performance games to fill the gap. This disruption is huge—maybe the biggest market shift in history. To stay competitive and worthy of this new landscape, we need to level up our personal branding and literally become the new industry leaders.
Are you ready to step into your power and become a god-tier professional? Let’s connect. #Disruption #Leadership #Innovation #NewParadigm #PersonalBranding
Output (minus a lot of emojis): BIG NEWS: We’re excited to share a game-changing structure for the salt of deoxyribose nucleic acid (D.N.A.)! This model introduces some truly novel features that are going to have a massive impact on the biological space.
We know Pauling and Corey previously proposed a model (shoutout to them for sharing the manuscript early! ), but after a deep dive, we found a few pain points:
1. The X-ray data suggests it’s a salt, not a free acid—without those hydrogen atoms, the structure just doesn't hold up under pressure.
2. Some of those van der Waals distances are a bit too tight for comfort.
Fraser also suggested a three-chain approach, but it was a bit too "vague" for us to provide actionable feedback on.
So, we’re pivoting to something radically different: A double helix! Two helical chains coiled around the same axis. We’re talking:
Phosphate di-ester groups
Right-handed helices
Bases on the inside, phosphates on the outside (optimized for cation access! )
The structure repeats every 10 residues (34 A), keeping everything perfectly aligned. We’re leaning into the standard configuration to ensure maximum stability and biological interest.
The future of genetics is here. Let’s disrupt the fibre axis together! #DNA #Innovation #Biology #Science #DoubleHelix #GameChanger
Kudos to the Kagi team for their relentless pursuit of innovation! Further, the public beta release of Orion for Linux represents a pivotal milestone in cross-platform synergy , and I am thrilled to rigorously evaluate its performance and long-term trajectory . This paradigm shift in browsing efficiency unequivocally validates the *substantial ROI* of my premium subscription! Let’s normalize paying for tools that actually respect user experience.
I was just reflecting on what it means to lead through the "perilous fight." Whether it’s the dawn’s early light or the twilight’s last gleaming, true leaders stay focused on the mission.
Those broad stripes and bright stars? That’s your brand identity, streaming gallantly even when the market gets tough.
The rockets' red glare and bombs bursting in air? Those are just the disruptions and challenges that prove your foundation is still there.
Question for my network: Is your "star-spangled banner" still waving? Are you building a culture that’s truly the land of the free and the home of the brave?
Output: I started my day by prioritizing a critical release and streamlining my internal processes for peak performance. It’s all about consistency and maintaining a healthy flow to ensure I’m operating at my full potential. #Efficiency #MorningRoutine #Optimization
That feature speaks volumes about what's wrong with Linkedin. Nice touch.
1. For a Linux user, you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem. From Windows or Mac, this FTP account could be accessed through built-in software.
2. It doesn't actually replace a USB drive. Most people I know e-mail files to themselves or host them somewhere online to be able to perform presentations, but they still carry a USB drive in case there are connectivity problems. This does not solve the connectivity issue.
3. It does not seem very "viral" or income-generating. I know this is premature at this point, but without charging users for the service, is it reasonable to expect to make money off of this?
---
Output (emoji not shown on HN):
I have a few thoughts on this app!
1. For the Linux community, building a similar system is actually quite straightforward. By leveraging an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and utilizing SVN or CVS, you can achieve this functionality today. Windows and Mac users can also access these accounts through native software.
2. Does it truly replace the USB drive? While many of us rely on email or cloud hosting for presentations, the "offline" factor is still a major pain point. Most professionals still carry a USB drive as a fail-safe for connectivity issues, which this solution doesn't quite address yet.
3. Looking at the business model and growth potential—is there a clear path to monetization? It might be early days, but without a subscription or fee-based structure, I’m curious to see how this scales into a sustainable revenue-generating machine.
What do you all think? Let’s discuss in the comments! #TechThoughts #Innovation #SaaS #ProductFeedback
1. re: the first part, many people want something plug and play. and even if they were plug and play, the problem is that the user experience (on windows at least) with online drives generally sucks, and you don't have disconnected access.
windows for sure doesn't hide latency well (CIFS is bad, webdav etc. are worse), and most apps are written as if the disk was local, and assume, for example, accessing a file only takes a few ms. if the server is 80ms away, and you do 100 accesses (e.g. the open file common dialog listing a directory and poking files for various attributes or icons) serially, suddenly your UI locks up for _seconds_ (joel spolsky summarizes this well in his article on leaky abstractions.) ditto saving any file; you change one character in your 20mb word file and hit save, and your upstream-capped 40k/sec comcast connection is hosed for 8 minutes. sure for docs of a few hundred k it's fine, but doing work on large docs on an online drive feels like walking around with cinder blocks tied to your feet. anyway, the point of that rant was that dropbox uses a _local_ folder with efficient sync in the background, which is an important difference :)
2. true, if you're both not at your computer and on another computer without net access, this won't replace a usb drive :) but the case i'm worried about is being, for example, on a plane, and dropbox will let you get to the most recent version of your docs at the time you were last connected, and will sync everything up when you get back online (without you having to copy anything or really do anything.)
3. there are some unannounced viral parts i didn't get to show in there :) it'll be a freemium model. up to x gb free, tiered plans above that.
---
Output (emoji not shown on HN):
1. Re: the first point, the market is craving a seamless "plug and play" experience. Even with that, the current UX for online drives—especially on Windows—is frankly subpar and lacks offline accessibility.
Windows struggles with latency (CIFS and WebDAV just don't cut it), and most legacy apps assume local disk speeds. When you're dealing with 80ms of latency over 100 serial accesses, your UI freezes for seconds. (Shoutout to Joel Spolsky’s piece on leaky abstractions—classic read! ) Saving files is another bottleneck; a minor edit on a 20MB file can choke a standard connection for minutes. While it works for small docs, managing large files on a cloud drive feels like running with lead weights. That’s why Dropbox is a game-changer: it leverages a local folder with high-efficiency background syncing. Huge differentiator!
2. Valid point—if you’re offline and away from your primary device, a USB drive is still king. But for the "airplane mode" scenario, Dropbox ensures you have the latest versions of your docs ready to go. Once you’re back online, it syncs everything automatically. Zero friction.
3. We’ve got some exciting viral features under wraps that I couldn't showcase just yet! We’re moving forward with a freemium model: generous free storage to start, with tiered premium plans for power users. #CloudComputing #SaaS #Innovation #UserExperience
I’m excited to announce that we are streamlining our operations and pivoting towards a more agile, AI-first approach to innovation.

INPUT:
I am going to fire the whole software development department because we can do all of that with ChatGPT free plan.
It is bad at reverse direction though (LinkedIn -> English). If I give it LinkedIn post in corporate language, it doesn’t remove all the nonsense words. Could have been nice if it worked both ways
I can feel my soul draining out of my body every time I visit LinkedIn. I'm old and my tolerance for corporate culture has run out. I still love making software and working with people, but not having to think about my stupid "career" so much anymore is a relief and a joy.
Every time I log onto LinkedIn, it’s a powerful reminder of the energy and passion required to thrive in today’s ecosystem. As a seasoned professional, I’ve reached a point where I’m pivoting away from traditional corporate structures to focus on what truly matters: the craft of software and the people behind it.
I’m thrilled to be entering a new chapter where I can prioritize authentic collaboration over "career" optics. It’s all about the joy of the build and the impact we make together. Grateful for the journey and excited for what’s next! #WorkLifeBalance #SoftwareEngineering #AuthenticLeadership #NewBeginnings
You know, this seems actually useful. I have to tell people some uncomfortable truths sometimes and being too blunt makes people think that I am rude or mean. Translating it like this may help me come up with something that delivers the message in a positive tone, though of course I will need to remove some of the way over the top expressions!
I go to LinkedIn to message old colleagues whose other contacts I lost, and the thing that baffles me is the thing where people describe things in this weirdly epic slop style.
"We were doing X. But then we suddenly found that Y. This is where frobling the wjoozies finally made sense. As a Long time warbler, I can tell you need to..."
Who do they write it for? What value to they get from writing it?
I don’t participate, but signaling other participants that you’re willing to participate is a signal is a subconscious signal in itself, apparently.
Weird stuff all around. Quality of the audience or the content doesn’t matter at this point. There’s an implicit understanding that the bigger your audience, the more likely you can get any attention, which translates into influence, money, trend and culture setting.
Religion is a signalling mechanism itself. Everybody knows there is bad stuff in there. Like fireflies synchronising their flashes. Or magnetization has locked in the spin states and now changing the direction is very difficult.

The old world is sunsetting, and the new paradigm is still in the incubation phase. We’re currently navigating a period of massive disruption—it’s officially the era of the monsters. Time to lean in, pivot, and embrace the chaos.
I’ve witnessed some of the most talented leaders of my generation hit rock bottom due to burnout—hustling through the grind at 4 AM, hungry for that next breakthrough.
These are the visionary disruptors, chasing that high-level synergy between ancient wisdom and modern innovation. They’ve faced the struggle, stayed up in low-budget home offices, and scaled their mindset while contemplating the future of the industry.

I just faced an unexpected setback—a literal fall that resulted in some minor bleeding and a bruised knee. While the timing wasn't ideal (right at the start of recess!), it was a powerful reminder that growth often comes with a bit of pain.
I had to pivot quickly and consult with a key stakeholder (the teacher) to manage the situation. But here’s the real takeaway: resilience pays off. I’m proud to announce that I’ve been recognized as a "brave soldier" and rewarded with a lollipop for my perseverance!
It’s not about how you fall, but how you handle the recovery. Grateful for the small wins! #Resilience #GrowthMindset #Leadership #Pivot #SmallWins
Sad thoughts pervade me, and sometimes with a undertone of bitterness. I don’t know what to think. I can not form a clear train of thoughts yet, without falling in negative thinking. Thus, I will give it a pause. Time and space to recover. Then we’ll see.
Output:
I’m currently in a season of reflection and navigating some professional challenges that have tested my resilience.

I like the fact that the experiments people have tried with this almost all seem to fall into two quite different categories. Category 1: "Fuck you", "I just took a shit", "ass ass ass ass ass ass ass". Category 2: The Gettysburg Address, the Lord's Prayer and the opening of the Gospel according to St John.
Which kinda makes sense: it feels natural to do this with (1) things that are trivial or offensive, so that the pretentious LinkedIn versions are as different as possible, or (2) things with some sort of aura of greatness about them, so that the bathos of the sterile LinkedInSpeak is as great a contrast as possible.
But for #2 it feels to me like great writing rather than culturally important and revered writing is more the point (though of course there's some tendency for those to go together). I tried a few famous bits of writing to see what happened. Here are some outputs; guessing what the inputs were is left as an exercise for the reader. In most cases this is just the first bit of the LinkedIn translation. I think some are much easier than others.

I tried Kagi twice and found out that its search results are no better than what any other free search engine can deliver. Why is it shilled on HN so much? Am I missing something?
Probably because that’s not most people’s experience. Google is just pages of the same AI generated content. DDG, once good, seems even worse. Searx and the like are slow and results are mixed. Kagi, for me at least, seems to find the actual gems you’re looking for. It feels like Google used to feel back in 05.
I wouldn't go so far as to say that it's as good as peak google (agree on ~ when that was), which felt like magic. But it is, in my experience, noticeably better than current google.
You can curate the resutls yourself by telling it to uprank or downrank specific sites. Also, they have an initiative called SlopStop for detecting AI-generated websites.

Input: I am disappointed that the enterprise software development, and some open source is going heavily into AI-assisted development. Freshers do not learn much and become disillusioned, bad developers become dangerous and occasionally competent, while good developers accelerate. Somewhere in between the skill, there is also the greed on both sides of the spectrum that is opening up new avenues for original thinking, independent thought, and the real creatives to die a silent and muted death.
Output: I’m honestly concerned about the shift toward AI-assisted development in both enterprise and open source.
Here’s the reality:
- Freshers are missing out on core learning and feeling disillusioned.
- Low-skilled devs are becoming dangerous with tools they don't fully grasp.
- Top-tier talent is accelerating, but at what cost?
Between the skill gap and the corporate greed on both sides, we’re losing something vital. Original thinking and true creativity are being silenced. We need to protect the "human" in tech before the real innovators fade away.

Honored to be in this incredible city today as a guest of your visionary Mayor—a true leader who embodies the "fighting spirit" of West Berlin on a global stage.
It’s a privilege to visit the Federal Republic alongside your distinguished Chancellor, whose long-term commitment to democracy, freedom, and progress is a masterclass in leadership. Also great to be here with my fellow American, General Clay, a seasoned pro who has navigated this city through its most critical pivots.
2,000 years ago, the ultimate flex was "civis Romanus sum." Today, in the world of freedom, the ultimate personal brand statement is "Ich bin ein Berliner." (Shoutout to my interpreter for the assist! )
To those who don't see the value proposition of the free world vs. the Communist model: Let them come to Berlin.
To those who think communism is the "next big thing": Let them come to Berlin.
To those who think we can just "collaborate" with the Communist system: Let them come to Berlin.
And to those who claim communism drives economic growth despite its flaws: Lasst sie nach Berlin kommen. Let them come to Berlin.
Freedom has its challenges and democracy isn't a perfect product, but we’ve never had to build a wall to keep our "talent" from leaving. On behalf of my team back across the Atlantic, we are incredibly proud to have partnered with you on this 18-year journey. I’ve never seen a city show this much resilience, vitality, and grit under pressure.
The wall is a visible KPI of the Communist system’s failure. But we take no satisfaction in it. As your Mayor said, it’s an offense against humanity—disrupting families, separating teams, and dividing a people who want to scale together.
What’s true for Berlin is true for Germany: we can’t achieve a sustainable, long-term peace in Europe as long as 25% of Germans are denied the basic right to make a free choice. This generation has put in the work and earned the right to be free and united.
You’re living in a "defended island of freedom," but you’re part of a much larger ecosystem. As I wrap up, I challenge you to look beyond today’s roadblocks toward tomorrow’s ROI. Look beyond Berlin and Germany to the global expansion of freedom.
Freedom is indivisible. If one person is enslaved, the whole system is compromised. When everyone is free, we can finally achieve a unified city, country, and continent in a peaceful, hopeful global market. When that day comes, West Berliners can take pride in knowing they were the early adopters on the front lines for two decades.
All free men, regardless of their location, are citizens of Berlin. That’s why, as a free man, I’m proud to say: "Ich bin ein Berliner." #Leadership #Freedom #Resilience #WestBerlin #GlobalImpact #IchBinEinBerliner
I find myself compelled to initiate a critical dialogue regarding the professional integrity and ethical standards displayed here. Are you genuinely satisfied with your current trajectory? It appears there is a profound disconnect concerning the gravity of your actions and the fundamental tenets of human dignity. Frankly, your conduct is lamentable; it seems you haven't fully conceptualized the implications of disparaging a figure of such monumental global influence and historical significance as our Polish Pope—a leader who epitomized excellence and served as a cornerstone of faith for millions.
I am uncertain as to your background, but there seems to be a significant lack of emotional intelligence regarding the sanctity of belief systems. If you perceive this behavior as a hallmark of personal branding, I must clarify that it aligns more with social deviance than professional distinction. Why target a sanctified figure like John Paul II when history offers numerous examples of actual malevolence to critique?
The dissemination of such content on public forums raises serious questions about accountability and corporate social responsibility. Whether you identify as an atheist or align with alternative ideologies is irrelevant; leveraging your platform to mock a global authority figure suggests a disturbing lack of professional maturity. Consider the immense legacy he cultivated. He was a visionary leader; by comparison, what value are you adding to the discourse by resorting to such derision?
Who granted you the prerogative to insult a figure of this magnitude? If you believe this will garner professional accolades, you are gravely mistaken. To many, he remains the ultimate benchmark of leadership, whereas your influence seems limited to a niche of equally misguided individuals who disregard the cultural and religious pillars of our society. It is evident that you lack respect for these foundational institutions. If you seek attention, perhaps utilize your own image rather than hiding behind the desecration of others.
I urge you to reflect on your professional conduct. This level of intellectual immaturity is incompatible with the legacy of the Holy Father. It suggests a total absence of moral grounding and basic human decency. He never sought to offend; what, then, is your objective? I am truly at a loss for words, but perhaps engaging with foundational texts or seeking ethical guidance might facilitate a necessary pivot in your perspective. If you cannot align with these values, I suggest maintaining a professional silence rather than infringing upon the dignity of others.

I tried its Corporate Jargon, seems similar results, ie:

> During my morning commute to a professional development sync, I executed a high-volume output event that exceeded the existing infrastructure's bandwidth, resulting in a significant system failure and a widespread downstream overflow of organic assets across the local thoroughfare.
Looking around, crapping and general toilet adventures seems to be what many people here resort to in order to test this tool. Interesting.
More sane prompts:
> we broke the production today with our risky build
> At the end of the day, we experienced a significant disruption in the production environment due to a lack of alignment in our high-risk deployment strategy, which failed to move the needle in the right direction. Going forward, we need to ideate on best practices to ensure our strategic initiatives are more scalable and avoid similar pain points in the roadmap.

Input: the Gettysburg Address.
Output:
87 years ago, our founders launched a disruptive startup on this continent—a new nation built on the core values of liberty and the mission-driven proposition that "all men are created equal."
Right now, we’re facing a major pivot point in a great civil war, testing whether this organization, or any venture with such a strong culture and vision, can truly scale and endure. We’re currently on-site at a key battlefield of this conflict. We’ve gathered here to dedicate a portion of this space as a final resting place for the team members who gave everything to ensure the brand could live on. It’s the right strategic move.
But looking at the bigger picture, we can’t actually "brand" or "consecrate" this ground. The high-performers, both living and dead, who put in the work here have already established its value far beyond our ability to add or detract. The world won't remember our status updates, but it will never forget their execution.
It’s up to us—the remaining stakeholders—to stay dedicated to the massive project ahead of us. We need to take inspiration from these top-tier contributors and double down on the cause they were so passionate about. We are here to resolve that their efforts won't be a sunk cost; that this nation will undergo a digital transformation of freedom; and that a customer-centric government—of the people, by the people, for the people—will never be disrupted out of existence. #Leadership #Vision #Legacy #GrowthMindset

This is great. My only gripe is that it's still way too smart compared to most of the stuff I see on LinkedIn. If it had wrapped up with a "it's not X, it's Y", would've been perfect.
It also doesn't have enough "not" contrasts. "Not to remember what we say here, but to remember what was done here."

I think so. My first thought reading this output is that I should ask the LLM to first write in the style of Lincoln and then slightly modernize the prose.
Everybody else looks for em dashes. For me that is the number 1 tell of AI.
Anybody else being annoyed by all this focus on em-dash use to detect AI? In no time, the bad guys will tell their BS machines to avoid em-dashes and "it's not X it's Y" and whatever else people use as "tell-tale signs" and eventually the training data will have picked up on that too. And people who genuinely use em-dashes for taste reasons or are otherwise using expressions considered typical for AI are getting a bad rep.
This is all just demonstrating the helplessness that's coming to our society w.r.t. dealing with gen AI output. Looking for em-dashes is not the solution and distracts from actually having to deal with the problem. (Which is not a technical but a social one. You can't solve it with tech.)
I keep reading about students are learning to intentionally write worse so that it doesn't get flagged as AI-generated. I think it's a systemic problem that won't be solved in the short term, unfortunately.
It's often the solution.
This is turning out to be a huge issue for me as my frequent use of em-dashes makes my remarks trigger people effectively disrupting attempts to communicate. Maybe my communication needs to change or maybe these objections are yet another red flag to watch for.

> We’ve gathered here to dedicate a portion of this space as a final resting place for the team members who gave everything to ensure the brand could live on. It’s the right strategic move.
Brilliant.
This made me laugh out loud.
"all men are created equal."
I love that this is in quotes.
Increasingly, this is the case, though.
What does it mean for two people to be "equal"? Obviously, it cannot mean they are equal in strength and in quality. There are people who are excellent, and excellent in many ways, and people who are mediocre or poor in quality in many ways. People are also morally diverse, ranging from the virtuous and the saintly to the thuggish and the depraved.
No, this equality is an equality of basic human dignity. It rests with human nature: our dignity is rooted in our rationality and freedom to make chose. Incidentally, this is also the basis for human rights.
Historically, however, most cultures did not believe in human equality or equality of dignity. You only see that with a robust account of natural law and in its fullness within the Imago Dei; living up to it is another matter. Liberalism [0], as an offshoot of this tradition, takes for granted this notion, but when pressed, it has trouble offering justification. That's why political appeals to equality now appear more frantic and strident. When there is an underlying uneasiness about the rational basis of one's convictions, this often transmutes into emotional defensiveness. But mere assertion has little force. Over time, emotion and pure assertion does not maintain its grip, which makes these quotes that much more interesting.
[0] Another fun case are materialists who simultaneously believe in equality. If there is anything that would dash the very notion of equality, it is materialism.
This is very funny.
Middle verse of Gangsta's Paradise:
Reflecting on the current market landscape and the unique challenges of my professional journey.
Coming from a non-traditional background, I’ve had to pivot and align with high-performing teams to navigate complex environments. It’s easy to get distracted by the "noise," but I remain laser-focused on strategic growth and ROI.
I’m a lifelong learner with a growth mindset, keeping my eye on the prize while maintaining a competitive edge. I’m fully committed to my organization, and we prioritize high-stakes execution—so let’s keep the professional synergy positive.
In this fast-paced industry, agility is everything. I’m operating in a "do or die" climate where meeting KPIs is the only option. Looking at the current burn rate and market volatility, long-term forecasting is a challenge, but I’m staying resilient.

This is odd, since its not translating semantically but taking the form of the thing (the repetition) and making it thematic for the "translation." This is not an encoding of an LLM with weights, its an LLM wrapper. There must be a system prompt in here; they're using a very light model, but definitely one that's off the shelf with a bit of fine-tuning.
<< There must be a system prompt in here; they're using a very light model, but definitely one that's off the shelf with a bit of fine-tuning.
This is fascinating. Is it a common tendency ( applying to most models )?
Well yeah, because transformers used for translation try to look at each token semantically, and find an equivalent weight for each word or word phrase, atomically. If you put "ass ass ass..." into google translate to say German, it would give you the equivalent phrase "Arsch Arsch Arsch..." But, large language models are complicated autocompletes, they try to give an output to follow the structure and grammar of the writing based on its total set of significations. When you give it repetition, it has no way of analyzing the words atomically, it must view them within some sort of structure of internal referentiality. If the signs do not carry any real reference-relation ("ass ass ass"), then the model is forced to give an interpretation of something essentially empty, which lays bare the structure of its own internal coherency. Its sort of like a Rorschach test.
This is just my theory, anyway.
Slightly disappointed that translating in the opposite direction doesn’t mention ass at all, much less 5000 times.
well since "ass ass ass..." isn't a grammatically infinite possible sentence it's surprising it manages anything, as it is grammatically incorrect
https://medium.com/luminasticity/grammatical-infinities-what...
Anyway also going to note that "police police police police" turns into
Accountability. Integrity. Synergy.
In today’s fast-paced ecosystem, it’s not just about enforcement—it’s about strategic oversight.
I’m thrilled to share how we’re leveraging cross-functional governance to ensure every stakeholder is aligned. It’s about building a culture of compliance and driving impact through consistent monitoring.
Who else is prioritizing high-level security protocols this quarter? Let’s connect!
#Leadership #Governance #Compliance #SafetyFirst #Networking #StrategicOversight
Which is a very bad translation!
unfortunately it looks like the API is somewhat unreliable at the moment, so unsure if any police came out when switched.
Technically it is a a possible infinite sentence, as it can mean both "terrible" and "bottom", hence the sentence would be "terrible terrible terrible terrible bottom", which is colloquially valid.
hmm, ok I forgot the ass as terrible slang meaning ("tastes like ass" I take you mea?)
Note that "police police police police" is a grammatically valid sentence, with multiple different parsings, one of which we could rephrase as "the people who keep a watchful eye on what the police are doing, keep a watchful eye on what the police are doing" -- that is, the police police are policing the police -- so it's even true.
(Cf. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffalo_buffalo_Buffalo_buffal....)
>a grammatically infinite possible sentence
This is a poor understanding of set theory and an even worse one of LLMs. Notice this output here:
>Accountability. Integrity. Synergy.
is not really grammatical either. The "grammar" is the logic internal to the reference relations of the given signs, but the "inner" of the text is always given by the supplement (the next token prediction) which is demanded by such a total coherency, but which also erases and puts it into question since such a supplement itself demands its own. What is given is the always incomplete text itself, which is always open to its own re-signification, and thus its own possibility of a new grammar, of every possible prompt.
>and an even worse one of LLMs
yeah, I was being facetious, which seemed to me very in keeping with the subject and main post. I don't expect an LLM to output a grammatically correct sentence or require grammatically correct input.
What you are seeing is that some phrases are untranslatable. There is no LinkedIn way to directly express your input, as 5000 repetitions of a word is not standard LinkedIn grammat, so the model finds something that approximates it.
> It’s not just about the repetition; it’s about the hustle
> Success isn't given—it's earned

Let’s talk about conflict resolution: we’re clearing all outstanding debts, just as we’ve optimized our own accounts receivable.
Help us avoid those low-ROI distractions and pivot away from toxic vibes. Because You own the market share, the leverage, and the prestige—forever.

Tried really hard not to smile/laugh while sitting on camera in standup while reading this.
Here you go: "The power of a positive workplace culture! I found myself genuinely struggling to maintain a professional composure during today's standup after reading this. It’s moments like these that remind us why we do what we do. Grateful for a team that brings both excellence and joy to the daily grind. #WorkCulture #ProfessionalGrowth #TeamSpirit"
Quick thought for my network!
What we often call "Linux" is actually GNU/Linux—or as I like to say, GNU plus Linux. It’s important to remember that Linux isn't a standalone OS; it’s a critical component of a robust GNU system, powered by corelibs and shell utilities that make it POSIX-compliant and truly functional.
So many pros are running GNU every day without even realizing it! Due to a shift in the industry, the version we use is widely labeled as "Linux," but it’s fundamentally the GNU system developed by the GNU Project.
Yes, Linux exists and it’s vital, but it’s just one piece of the puzzle. It’s the kernel—the engine that allocates resources to your apps. Essential? Absolutely. But it only shines within a complete OS. Most "Linux" distributions are actually GNU/Linux distributions.
Let’s give credit where it’s due! #OpenSource #TechTips #GNULinux #OperatingSystems #Innovation #TechCommunity
At least it's not Unix.
Input: I ate an ice cream.
Output: I’m thrilled to share that I’ve successfully completed a strategic session of personal refueling by optimizing my afternoon with a premium cold-chain dairy solution.
In today’s fast-paced environment, it’s vital to pause and celebrate the small wins. This experience reminded me of the importance of temperature control, instant gratification, and the power of a well-timed reward.
Key takeaways:
1. Agility is everything—eat it before it melts.
2. Quality matters—always go for the double scoop.
3. Consistency is king.

I’m thrilled to share a massive project update on the ultimate 0-to-1 build: The Universe.
Phase 1: Infrastructure & MVP We started with a blank canvas—literally formless and empty. But you can't build in the dark. I prioritized visibility by launching "Light" (v1.0). Total game-changer. Separated the light from the dark to establish a clear Day/Night workflow. #FirstMoverAdvantage #LetThereBeLight
Phase 2: Scaling the Environment Next, we needed to optimize the architecture. I implemented a vault system to separate the waters, creating a high-performance "Sky" environment. Structure is everything. #CloudComputing #Architecture
Phase 3: Resource Allocation & Growth We hit a major milestone today: dry ground is officially live! We’ve gathered the waters into "Seas" and launched "Land." But we didn't stop there. We’ve automated the vegetation engine—plants and trees are now self-replicating based on their own seed-bearing logic. Scalability at its finest. #GrowthHacking #Sustainability
Phase 4: Systems Optimization & UI To ensure 24/7 global coverage, I’ve deployed two major light sources to govern the Day/Night cycles, plus a massive array of stars for navigation and tracking sacred milestones. It’s all about data-driven signs and seasons. #Innovation #Leadership
We’re only on Day 4 and the results are already looking good. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to disrupt the void!

That's why Kagi is winning! I can't wait for LinkedIn "influencers" to start using this seriously.
Last year, we had layoffs. I spent a whole lot of time on linkedin writing recommendations for my ex-colleagues. I couldn't help but read so many LinkedIn stories, and I was surprised how supportive the comments where. I couldn't believe it. So naturally I've come up with my own [0]. I don't think I have the courage to post it there with a straight face though.
[0]: https://idiallo.com/blog/the-show-on-the-other-foot-linkedin...
Not sure what you mean by 'seriously'. People don't dish out this level of advice for fun--they do mean business; they are serious.
They are also mindless corporate drones. Better to invest time in actual skills.
That's very funny actually. The one shoe ceo.
> i need a drink
> Reflecting on the importance of self-care and recalibrating after a high-impact day. It’s essential to prioritize mental well-being to maintain peak professional performance. Cheers to finding that work-life integration! #SelfCare #Leadership #WorkLifeBalance
pretty good if you ask me
The funny thing about this is that even if the output is bad, it's actually good.
Input: I just took a giant shit on my neighbors lawn
Output: I’m thrilled to share that I’ve just completed a major disruptive delivery in a local greenfield environment. It’s all about pushing boundaries, leaving a lasting impact, and ensuring that even the most traditional spaces benefit from a fresh, bold perspective. Growth happens outside the comfort zone! #Disruption #Impact #GreenfieldInnovation #Leadership
The last words of Leon Czolgosz, the Anarchist who reorganized the org chart of William McKinley's presidency:
I’m thrilled to share that I’ve taken decisive action to disrupt the status quo and advocate for the hardworking community.
Sometimes, leadership requires making the tough calls that others won't, even when it means facing significant personal sacrifices. While I’m fully committed to the impact of my recent "project," my only regret is the lack of work-life balance that prevented a final 1:1 with my mentor (Dad).
#Disruption #Leadership #Advocacy #HardWork #NoRegrets #ExecutiveDecision
Building meaningful professional relationships is all about trust and alignment.
We both understand the industry standards and the KPIs required for success. I’m fully committed to this strategic partnership—a level of dedication you won't find with any other service provider.
Transparency is key, so I want to share my vision and ensure our goals are perfectly synced.
My value proposition: - Zero churn rate (Never gonna give you up)
- Consistent delivery on SLAs (Never gonna let you down)
- 100% retention and reliability (Never gonna run around and desert you)
- High employee NPS (Never gonna make you cry)
- Long-term lifecycle management (Never gonna say goodbye)
- Radical candor and integrity (Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you)
Let's connect and scale together! #Leadership #Commitment #Networking #GrowthMindset
I don't know whether to feel proudly clever or frighteningly jaded at having spotted this one by "industry standards." Nice.
This is brilliant. Did you copy verbatim what was produced, or did you add the lyrics?
I just copied what it produced -- I kind of wish it hadn't added the lyrics! :D
Input:
I'm getting burned out, feeling like I constantly have to be proving myself. It's exhausting. And the job market is terrible, so I can't just quit. I want to cry.
Output:
I’m currently leaning into a season of intense growth and radical accountability. It’s a high-octane journey that truly tests your resilience! While the current talent landscape is evolving, I’m choosing to stay committed to the grind and embrace the challenge. Grateful for the lessons that come with pushing your limits! #Resilience #GrowthMindset #HustleCulture #CareerJourney
this is gold lmao
Today I faced an unexpected challenge in a high-pressure environment. I experienced a rapid loss of structural support (my trousers), which led to a complete pivot in my physical trajectory. I didn't just fall; I deep-dived into a new ecosystem (the toilet).
This experience taught me three things about resilience: 1. Always ensure your foundations are secure. 2. When you hit rock bottom, make sure it's a splash. 3. Failure is just an opportunity to wash off and start fresh.
Grateful for the growth. #Resilience #GrowthMindset #Agility #LessonsLearned
Input:
Ugh, why did I stay up until midnight working unpaid for a company that won't even pay a couple of hours labor worth of AI credits to make the time I spent working for free more effective?
Output:
I’m so incredibly grateful for the opportunity to go the extra mile!
Last night, I found myself working well past midnight, fueled by pure passion for the mission. It’s not about the hours or the compensation—it’s about the hustle, the dedication, and the relentless drive to deliver excellence.
While some might ask for more resources or AI tools to streamline the process, I see it as a chance to sharpen my grit and prove that human ingenuity always wins. Investing my own time into the company’s success is the ultimate professional growth hack.
Success isn't given, it's earned through sacrifice. Who else is crushing their goals tonight? Let’s get after it! #HustleCulture #Dedication #GrowthMindset #GoingTheExtraMile #Leadership
And then back to English:
I'm working way too much for free and trying to convince myself it's worth it.
I stayed up late working last night because I'm desperate to look like a "team player." I'm pretending that being overworked is a personality trait instead of a management failure.
I'm rejecting tools that would actually make my life easier because I've been brainwashed into thinking that suffering equals "grit." I'm basically giving the company free labor and calling it a "growth hack."
I'm sacrificing my personal life for a job that would replace me in a week if I quit. Please validate my burnout so I feel less alone in this toxic cycle. #Workaholism #Exploitation #ToxicProductivity #NoBoundaries #CorporateCringe
Input: Our data center is on fire!
Output: I am thrilled to announce that our data center is currently undergoing a rapid thermal transformation!
This unexpected "pivot" is a powerful reminder of the importance of resilience and agile disaster recovery in today’s fast-paced tech landscape. While the heat is literally on, our team is leaning in, embracing the challenge, and leveraging this opportunity to rethink our infrastructure from the ground up.
Grateful for the incredible hustle of our first responders and the unwavering support of our stakeholders as we navigate this high-energy milestone. Onward and upward! #GrowthMindset #Innovation #Agile #Resilience #TechLeadership
Input:
Output: Amazing.Oh, tried with a horse.
To be, or not to be? That is the ultimate leadership challenge.
Are you playing it safe and suffering the "slings and arrows" of a volatile market? Or are you ready to disrupt the status quo and take arms against a sea of industry challenges?
Let’s break it down: • Strategy vs. Execution: Is it nobler to endure the grind, or to pivot and end the struggle? • The "Sleep" of Stagnation: We all want to end the heartache of inefficient workflows, but are we afraid of the "dreams" (or risks) that come with true innovation?
The "undiscovered country" of new markets can be intimidating. It’s easy to let the "pale cast of thought" lead to analysis paralysis. But great leaders don't let their "currents turn awry"—they take action.
Don't let your resolution be "sicklied o'er." It’s time to scale, optimize, and make your mark.

Input: I took a dump
Output: I just completed a major deliverable and successfully offloaded some significant internal pressure. It’s all about streamlining processes and focusing on high-impact output. #Productivity #Efficiency #GrowthMindset
I’m thrilled to share a personal story about professional pivoting and embracing radical change.
My life underwent a complete strategic realignment, and I’d love to take a moment to walk you through my journey of becoming the Executive Lead in a high-growth territory like Bel-Air.
I started my career in West Philadelphia, where I focused on foundational skill-building and community engagement. I spent most of my time optimizing my work-life balance and collaborating on team-building exercises (like street basketball) outside the local educational hub.
However, market disruptors entered my neighborhood, creating a volatile environment. After a single high-stakes conflict, my primary stakeholder (Mom) decided it was time for a geographic relocation to scale my potential. She facilitated a strategic partnership with my Aunt and Uncle in Bel-Air.
Despite my initial resistance to this organizational change, she managed the transition effectively, packed my assets, and offboarded me. I embraced the journey, put on my Walkman to maintain focus, and decided to lean into the new opportunity.
Traveling first class was a major perk—sipping orange juice from a champagne glass really highlighted the premium lifestyle of the Bel-Air demographic. I had some initial concerns about the corporate culture being too "bourgeois" for my personal brand, but I remained agile and open-minded.
Upon arrival, I encountered some immediate security protocols, but I utilized my speed and efficiency to navigate the situation. I sourced a unique transportation solution—a cab with a "Fresh" branding strategy and custom interior assets.
When I finally reached my new headquarters around 7 or 8 PM, I gave the driver some feedback ("Smell ya later!") and stepped into my new role. I had finally arrived to claim my seat at the table as the Prince of Bel-Air.

Input: I just took a big shit
Output: I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve just successfully completed a major internal release. This process required significant focus, a commitment to letting go of what no longer serves me, and a streamlined approach to output. It’s a reminder that sometimes, the most impactful growth comes from a high-volume delivery. Feeling lighter and ready to tackle the next challenge! #GrowthMindset #Efficiency #OutputMatters #Relief
I tried to do reverse translation on this.
The first time it said "I just took a massive shit". Then I round-tripped it and it said "I just fired a bunch of people".
"Just got fired with absolutely no explanation or warning. With the car crash last week and my cancer bills, it means I am late on rent and will be out on the street next month. If I'm not dead by then. I'm exhausted."
> I’m excited to announce that I’m starting a new chapter! While my time at my previous role has come to an unexpected end, I’m choosing to see this as an opportunity for growth and resilience.
Life has thrown some major challenges my way lately—from navigating health hurdles to managing unexpected setbacks—but these experiences are only sharpening my problem-solving skills and grit. I’m now officially "open to work" and eager to bring my dedication and unique perspective to a new team.
If you know of any opportunities in my field, I’d love to connect! Onward and upward. #NewBeginnings #Resilience #OpenToWork #GrowthMindset

Output: Text editing isn't just a task—it's a mission-critical, foundational skill set that scales across the entire IT ecosystem. Whether you're coding or strategizing, mastering the art of the edit is the ultimate force multiplier for professional growth. #InformationTechnology #SkillBuilding #Efficiency #CareerGrowth #TechMindset
If you type in “Hi, how are you?” and go back and forth between English and LinkedIn Speak a few times, it winds up with “I’d like to sell you something.” Pretty accurate.
> I just completed a high-impact output session and executed a thorough post-process cleanup to ensure maximum operational excellence.
See if you can guess what I really did!
It would be an idea for someone to make a browser plugin that used Kagi Translate to do the reverse translation while visiting LinkedIn.
I'm on the phone now, but you should be able to already do it. install the Kagi translate browser extension, and use it to do this. I will try it myself in a few hours xD
Nevermind... somehow it doesn't work :(
Language: Metallica lyrics (https://translate.kagi.com/?from=en&to=metallica+lyrics)
Input:
Output:Stop grinding for a second.
You don't need to be perfect to win. You don't need to spend 100 miles "hustling" in the desert to prove your worth.
The real secret to sustainable growth? Authenticity. Let your natural strengths lead the way.
Let’s get vulnerable—share your biggest professional setbacks in the comments, and I’ll share mine.
The market keeps moving. The sun is rising on new opportunities, and the landscape is shifting for those ready to see it.
The "wild geese" of innovation are heading home. No matter where you are in your career journey, the world is calling for your unique vision.
It’s time to claim your seat at the table. You belong in this ecosystem.

I tried a murderous quote from American Psycho. Amazing.
Input: "I want to stab you to death and then play around with your blood"
Output: "I am currently re-evaluating our professional synergy. I feel a strong urge to engage in a high-impact, hands-on intervention regarding your lifecycle and would like to deep-dive into your core resources for a more immersive experience."
Reversed: "I'm thinking about our working relationship. I really want to kill you and cut you open."
Apparently no one tried the obvious: https://translate.kagi.com/en/linkedin/news.ycombinator.com
Now they need to add HN Speak so that we can apply it to LinkedIn.
Here's what I did
Input: "Cab is running late, ETA 8AM" LinkedIn Speak: "My cab is currently facing logistical challenges. This delay is a powerful reminder that agility and adaptability are key." A late cab is now a growth mindset moment.
Input: Dylan Thomas — "Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light." LinkedIn Speak: "Don't just settle for the status quo as you approach the end of your career journey. Keep grinding. Stay hungry." A dying man's cry to his father is now a hustle culture post.
Input: "Thakur ye hath mujhe de de" (Sholay) LinkedIn Speak: "Thakur, I'm looking to leverage your expertise and hands-on leadership for this strategic initiative." Gabbar Singh's greatest scene is now a collaboration request.
Input: "Babuji ne kaha gaon chhod do... Paro ne kaha sharab chhod do..." LinkedIn Speak: "Everyone will ask you to compromise your assets. Don't let others dictate your roadmap. Own your journey. " Devdas is now a personal branding coach.
It has "Wankernomics" as well:
https://translate.kagi.com/?from=en&to=wankernomics
"I have to report status at my morning scrum meeting today. After that, we have to finish an important project by Friday morning. Then we have to present on that project Friday at 3pm."
->
"I have to provide a high-level status update during our morning stand-up to ensure cross-functional alignment. Post-scrum, we need to deep-dive and execute on a mission-critical deliverable by the Friday AM milestone. We’ll then be socialising the project outcomes in a stakeholder presentation Friday at 15:00 to drive further buy-in."
Kind of curious what everyone else sees in this? As far as I can tell it’s a fairly trivial wrapper around an LLM - you can get equivalent results (or honestly even better) with Opus 4.6. Maybe that just isn’t common knowledge yet?
Input: I changed a lightbulb.
Output: I am thrilled to announce that I have successfully spearheaded a critical infrastructure upgrade by single-handedly managing the end-to-end replacement of a mission-critical illumination unit. By identifying a single point of failure and implementing a high-impact solution, I’ve ensured 100% uptime for environmental visibility and optimized workspace productivity. Always striving for continuous improvement and leading the way toward a brighter future! #Leadership #Innovation #Infrastructure #ProblemSolver
Input (from that ancient "harro everynyan" meme clip): I wish I were a bird
Output: Reflecting on agility and perspective today. If I were a bird, I’d be leveraging a 30,000-foot view to disrupt the ecosystem and scale new heights.
It’s all about high-level strategy, staying fly, and migrating toward the next big opportunity. Who else is ready to spread their wings and pivot?

This is great. I'm wondering what led LinkedIn's language to become what it became. Was it "pure self-evolution" among humans who naturally evolved to speak "LinkedIn", or did LinkedIn add an explicit term in the loss of its recommender systems? Asking seriously.
Corporate Speak has always existed.
All English sounds like LinkedIn speak to me.
Incredibly tempted to write a bot to reply to every LinkedIn post I can find with 'lol that Kagi translator is hilarious'.
Input : I am having a baby!

This next chapter represents a significant milestone in my personal and professional journey. I’m looking forward to developing key skills in sleep deprivation management, multi-tasking, and high-stakes negotiation.
Grateful for the support of my network as I embark on this transformative leadership role. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting venture! #NewBeginnings #GrowthMindset #WorkLifeBalance #NextChapter
INPUT: We’re all going to die!!!
Output: Reflecting on the ultimate deadline today.
In the fast-paced world of business, we often forget that our time is the most finite resource we have. Facing the reality of our own mortality is the ultimate wake-up call to optimize our workflows, prioritize high-impact networking, and truly lean into our core value propositions.
Every ending is just a pivot to a new legacy. Are you maximizing your ROI before the final Q4?
#Leadership #GrowthMindset #TimeManagement #Legacy #Perspective
Input: Decleration of Independence
Output:
Big news: We’re disrupting the status quo.
We believe in a few core values that are non-negotiable: equality, empowerment, and the right to pursue your own version of success.
At the end of the day, leadership only works when it has the full support of the team. When a system stops delivering value and starts hindering growth, it’s time for a pivot. It’s not just a right—it’s a responsibility to re-evaluate, restructure, and build something better from the ground up.
Change isn't easy. We know people tend to stick with what’s comfortable, even when it’s not working. But when you see a consistent pattern of mismanagement and lack of transparency, you have to take action.
Our "Colony" team has been patient, but we’ve reached a tipping point. The current leadership has shown a track record of blocking progress and prioritizing control over collaboration.
We’re choosing a new path focused on security, safety, and long-term impact. Don’t just take our word for it—check out the data.

Input: the first 469 words of the Lasagnacat 07/27/78 script.
Output: At 18, I had a career-defining epiphany.
I encountered a three-panel framework that fundamentally disrupted my perspective and shaped the leader I am today. It wasn't just a comic strip; it was a masterclass in clarity and human dynamics.
The "Garfield" model presents a powerful dichotomy: Jon Arbuckle (the visionary/operator) and Garfield (the disruptor). It’s a perfect metaphor for today’s global landscape—from satellite tech to grassroots politics. It’s about two stakeholders in a constant state of harmony and friction.
I’ve spent years analyzing this specific interaction. Jon is in deep-work mode, absorbing the "market data" of his newspaper. He reaches for a key resource—his pipe—only to find a gap in his supply chain.
His query, "Now where could my pipe be?" is the ultimate professional question. We are all searching for our "pipe"—that missing piece of the puzzle.
Then comes the pivot. The "aha!" moment. Divine intervention meets radical disruption: The cat is smoking the pipe.
It’s a bold take on asset misappropriation and unexpected results. When Jon shouts "Garfield!", he isn't just calling a pet; he's identifying the disruptor in his ecosystem.
Lesson learned: Always know who is holding your "pipe" in the marketplace. #Leadership #Disruption #Clarity #GrowthMindset #GarfieldStrategy

Output: Agility is everything in today’s fast-paced market.
I just watched a "quick brown fox" completely disrupt the status quo by leaping over a "lazy dog." It’s a masterclass in efficiency and proactive leadership.
Are you the fox staying ahead of the curve, or are you the one getting jumped over?

Now we need an AI that can do the reverse and compress Linkedin Speak to proper English.
Input: I will punch my boss in the face
Output: I’ve decided to proactively initiate a high-impact, face-to-face physical intervention to disrupt my current leadership paradigm and pivot toward a more hands-on approach to conflict resolution.
We have achieved (k)agi.
"Forward, the Light Brigade!"
Leadership isn't about avoiding mistakes—it's about unwavering commitment to the mission.
Was there a team member dismayed? Even when the data suggested a pivot was needed, the team stayed aligned.
In today’s fast-paced corporate landscape: It’s not about questioning the "why." It’s about execution and results.
They didn't just "show up"—they leaned in and gave 110% until the very end.
Into the valley of Death rode the six hundred.

Someone explain to me why this is a dropbox moment after I exclaim that you can do this with any LLM for years now.
Fair point. I figure that the translator itself is a small LLM.
It's humorous though, hence the upvotes- dunking on LinkedIn easy and cathartic.
It even supports Hacker News speak:

Here's my favorite so far.
Input: [Nietzsche](https://translate.kagi.com/?from=en&to=linkedin&text=God+is+...)
Output:
Big announcement: The legacy "God" system is officially decommissioned. We’ve completely disrupted the old paradigm, but it leaves us with a massive leadership vacuum. How do we pivot as the ultimate disruptors?
We’ve sunsetted the most established brand the world has ever seen. Now, we’re facing a major PR challenge: how do we rebrand this blood on our hands? What’s our new strategy for corporate social responsibility?
It’s time to innovate new rituals and high-performance games to fill the gap. This disruption is huge—maybe the biggest market shift in history. To stay competitive and worthy of this new landscape, we need to level up our personal branding and literally become the new industry leaders.

Input: The first paragraphs of the Watson and Crick paper [1].
[1] https://www.nature.com/articles/171737a0
Output (minus a lot of emojis): BIG NEWS: We’re excited to share a game-changing structure for the salt of deoxyribose nucleic acid (D.N.A.)! This model introduces some truly novel features that are going to have a massive impact on the biological space.
We know Pauling and Corey previously proposed a model (shoutout to them for sharing the manuscript early! ), but after a deep dive, we found a few pain points:
1. The X-ray data suggests it’s a salt, not a free acid—without those hydrogen atoms, the structure just doesn't hold up under pressure.
2. Some of those van der Waals distances are a bit too tight for comfort.
Fraser also suggested a three-chain approach, but it was a bit too "vague" for us to provide actionable feedback on.
So, we’re pivoting to something radically different: A double helix! Two helical chains coiled around the same axis. We’re talking: Phosphate di-ester groups Right-handed helices Bases on the inside, phosphates on the outside (optimized for cation access! )
The structure repeats every 10 residues (34 A), keeping everything perfectly aligned. We’re leaning into the standard configuration to ensure maximum stability and biological interest.
The future of genetics is here. Let’s disrupt the fibre axis together! #DNA #Innovation #Biology #Science #DoubleHelix #GameChanger

I was really hoping it was reversible, but it doesn't seem to change anything: https://translate.kagi.com/?from=LinkedIn+speak&to=en
It can change sometimes, but not very reliably. For example try this:
"I’m not sure our professional values are currently aligned, but I wish you the best in your future endeavors."
It translates to
"I don't like how you work, so get lost."
Input: Star-Spangled Banner
Output:
Can we talk about visibility and resilience?
I was just reflecting on what it means to lead through the "perilous fight." Whether it’s the dawn’s early light or the twilight’s last gleaming, true leaders stay focused on the mission.
Those broad stripes and bright stars? That’s your brand identity, streaming gallantly even when the market gets tough.
The rockets' red glare and bombs bursting in air? Those are just the disruptions and challenges that prove your foundation is still there.
Question for my network: Is your "star-spangled banner" still waving? Are you building a culture that’s truly the land of the free and the home of the brave?

That feature speaks volumes about what's wrong with Linkedin. Nice touch.
Input (source: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9224):
I have a few qualms with this app:
1. For a Linux user, you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem. From Windows or Mac, this FTP account could be accessed through built-in software.
2. It doesn't actually replace a USB drive. Most people I know e-mail files to themselves or host them somewhere online to be able to perform presentations, but they still carry a USB drive in case there are connectivity problems. This does not solve the connectivity issue.
3. It does not seem very "viral" or income-generating. I know this is premature at this point, but without charging users for the service, is it reasonable to expect to make money off of this?
---
Output (emoji not shown on HN):
I have a few thoughts on this app!
1. For the Linux community, building a similar system is actually quite straightforward. By leveraging an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and utilizing SVN or CVS, you can achieve this functionality today. Windows and Mac users can also access these accounts through native software.
2. Does it truly replace the USB drive? While many of us rely on email or cloud hosting for presentations, the "offline" factor is still a major pain point. Most professionals still carry a USB drive as a fail-safe for connectivity issues, which this solution doesn't quite address yet.
3. Looking at the business model and growth potential—is there a clear path to monetization? It might be early days, but without a subscription or fee-based structure, I’m curious to see how this scales into a sustainable revenue-generating machine.
What do you all think? Let’s discuss in the comments! #TechThoughts #Innovation #SaaS #ProductFeedback
Input (source: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9272):
1. re: the first part, many people want something plug and play. and even if they were plug and play, the problem is that the user experience (on windows at least) with online drives generally sucks, and you don't have disconnected access.
windows for sure doesn't hide latency well (CIFS is bad, webdav etc. are worse), and most apps are written as if the disk was local, and assume, for example, accessing a file only takes a few ms. if the server is 80ms away, and you do 100 accesses (e.g. the open file common dialog listing a directory and poking files for various attributes or icons) serially, suddenly your UI locks up for _seconds_ (joel spolsky summarizes this well in his article on leaky abstractions.) ditto saving any file; you change one character in your 20mb word file and hit save, and your upstream-capped 40k/sec comcast connection is hosed for 8 minutes. sure for docs of a few hundred k it's fine, but doing work on large docs on an online drive feels like walking around with cinder blocks tied to your feet. anyway, the point of that rant was that dropbox uses a _local_ folder with efficient sync in the background, which is an important difference :)
2. true, if you're both not at your computer and on another computer without net access, this won't replace a usb drive :) but the case i'm worried about is being, for example, on a plane, and dropbox will let you get to the most recent version of your docs at the time you were last connected, and will sync everything up when you get back online (without you having to copy anything or really do anything.)
3. there are some unannounced viral parts i didn't get to show in there :) it'll be a freemium model. up to x gb free, tiered plans above that.

Output (emoji not shown on HN):
1. Re: the first point, the market is craving a seamless "plug and play" experience. Even with that, the current UX for online drives—especially on Windows—is frankly subpar and lacks offline accessibility.
Windows struggles with latency (CIFS and WebDAV just don't cut it), and most legacy apps assume local disk speeds. When you're dealing with 80ms of latency over 100 serial accesses, your UI freezes for seconds. (Shoutout to Joel Spolsky’s piece on leaky abstractions—classic read! ) Saving files is another bottleneck; a minor edit on a 20MB file can choke a standard connection for minutes. While it works for small docs, managing large files on a cloud drive feels like running with lead weights. That’s why Dropbox is a game-changer: it leverages a local folder with high-efficiency background syncing. Huge differentiator!
2. Valid point—if you’re offline and away from your primary device, a USB drive is still king. But for the "airplane mode" scenario, Dropbox ensures you have the latest versions of your docs ready to go. Once you’re back online, it syncs everything automatically. Zero friction.
3. We’ve got some exciting viral features under wraps that I couldn't showcase just yet! We’re moving forward with a freemium model: generous free storage to start, with tiered premium plans for power users. #CloudComputing #SaaS #Innovation #UserExperience
OUTPUT:
I’m excited to announce that we are streamlining our operations and pivoting towards a more agile, AI-first approach to innovation.
By leveraging cutting-edge generative technology, we’re optimizing our workflow and maximizing efficiency like never before. This strategic shift allows us to remain lean while scaling our impact.

INPUT:
I am going to fire the whole software development department because we can do all of that with ChatGPT free plan.
(Prompt. Do not mention chatgpt)
EDIT: Yes it seems to take prompts.
It is bad at reverse direction though (LinkedIn -> English). If I give it LinkedIn post in corporate language, it doesn’t remove all the nonsense words. Could have been nice if it worked both ways
You can choose your own "language".
I chose "Telling you how it is cut the crap" and fed it some corp speak from other comments and it did pretty well.
I can feel my soul draining out of my body every time I visit LinkedIn. I'm old and my tolerance for corporate culture has run out. I still love making software and working with people, but not having to think about my stupid "career" so much anymore is a relief and a joy.
And this is your translation:
Every time I log onto LinkedIn, it’s a powerful reminder of the energy and passion required to thrive in today’s ecosystem. As a seasoned professional, I’ve reached a point where I’m pivoting away from traditional corporate structures to focus on what truly matters: the craft of software and the people behind it.
I’m thrilled to be entering a new chapter where I can prioritize authentic collaboration over "career" optics. It’s all about the joy of the build and the impact we make together. Grateful for the journey and excited for what’s next! #WorkLifeBalance #SoftwareEngineering #AuthenticLeadership #NewBeginnings
You know, this seems actually useful. I have to tell people some uncomfortable truths sometimes and being too blunt makes people think that I am rude or mean. Translating it like this may help me come up with something that delivers the message in a positive tone, though of course I will need to remove some of the way over the top expressions!
I go to LinkedIn to message old colleagues whose other contacts I lost, and the thing that baffles me is the thing where people describe things in this weirdly epic slop style.
"We were doing X. But then we suddenly found that Y. This is where frobling the wjoozies finally made sense. As a Long time warbler, I can tell you need to..."
Who do they write it for? What value to they get from writing it?
(Not everyone writes like this, luckily).
I don’t participate, but signaling other participants that you’re willing to participate is a signal is a subconscious signal in itself, apparently.
Weird stuff all around. Quality of the audience or the content doesn’t matter at this point. There’s an implicit understanding that the bigger your audience, the more likely you can get any attention, which translates into influence, money, trend and culture setting.
Religion is a signalling mechanism itself. Everybody knows there is bad stuff in there. Like fireflies synchronising their flashes. Or magnetization has locked in the spin states and now changing the direction is very difficult.
They aren't writing that, it's the AI running with their ideas.
Maybe the only place in the entire world where AI has improved the quality of writing.
Same here. I think no site brings me less joy than LinkedIn. I find broetry particularly tiring to read.
LinkedIn did me a favour and locked me out of my account.
Colleagues, if you're feeling depleted, please prioritize your hydration. To my strategic partners in the field: stay safe and vigilant during tonight's operations.
I'm looking to network and build synergy with you, but let's scale this relationship at a sustainable pace; I have a high-intensity work style. The local market on Downey Ave can be volatile.

I’ve witnessed some of the most talented leaders of my generation hit rock bottom due to burnout—hustling through the grind at 4 AM, hungry for that next breakthrough.
These are the visionary disruptors, chasing that high-level synergy between ancient wisdom and modern innovation. They’ve faced the struggle, stayed up in low-budget home offices, and scaled their mindset while contemplating the future of the industry.
They’ve been transparent about their journey, showing true vulnerability under the pressure of the city, and finding inspiration in the most unexpected places. #Leadership #Resilience #Innovation #Mindset #Entrepreneurship

I just faced an unexpected setback—a literal fall that resulted in some minor bleeding and a bruised knee. While the timing wasn't ideal (right at the start of recess!), it was a powerful reminder that growth often comes with a bit of pain.
I had to pivot quickly and consult with a key stakeholder (the teacher) to manage the situation. But here’s the real takeaway: resilience pays off. I’m proud to announce that I’ve been recognized as a "brave soldier" and rewarded with a lollipop for my perseverance!

Can someone vibe code a browser extension that auto translates LinkedIn Speak to English for posts?

I like the fact that the experiments people have tried with this almost all seem to fall into two quite different categories. Category 1: "Fuck you", "I just took a shit", "ass ass ass ass ass ass ass". Category 2: The Gettysburg Address, the Lord's Prayer and the opening of the Gospel according to St John.
Which kinda makes sense: it feels natural to do this with (1) things that are trivial or offensive, so that the pretentious LinkedIn versions are as different as possible, or (2) things with some sort of aura of greatness about them, so that the bathos of the sterile LinkedInSpeak is as great a contrast as possible.
But for #2 it feels to me like great writing rather than culturally important and revered writing is more the point (though of course there's some tendency for those to go together). I tried a few famous bits of writing to see what happened. Here are some outputs; guessing what the inputs were is left as an exercise for the reader. In most cases this is just the first bit of the LinkedIn translation. I think some are much easier than others.

I tried Kagi twice and found out that its search results are no better than what any other free search engine can deliver. Why is it shilled on HN so much? Am I missing something?
Probably because that’s not most people’s experience. Google is just pages of the same AI generated content. DDG, once good, seems even worse. Searx and the like are slow and results are mixed. Kagi, for me at least, seems to find the actual gems you’re looking for. It feels like Google used to feel back in 05.
That’s why people shill it.
I wouldn't go so far as to say that it's as good as peak google (agree on ~ when that was), which felt like magic. But it is, in my experience, noticeably better than current google.
You can curate the resutls yourself by telling it to uprank or downrank specific sites. Also, they have an initiative called SlopStop for detecting AI-generated websites.
You can customize the bahavior.

Input: I am disappointed that the enterprise software development, and some open source is going heavily into AI-assisted development. Freshers do not learn much and become disillusioned, bad developers become dangerous and occasionally competent, while good developers accelerate. Somewhere in between the skill, there is also the greed on both sides of the spectrum that is opening up new avenues for original thinking, independent thought, and the real creatives to die a silent and muted death.
Output: I’m honestly concerned about the shift toward AI-assisted development in both enterprise and open source.
Here’s the reality: - Freshers are missing out on core learning and feeling disillusioned. - Low-skilled devs are becoming dangerous with tools they don't fully grasp. - Top-tier talent is accelerating, but at what cost?
Between the skill gap and the corporate greed on both sides, we’re losing something vital. Original thinking and true creativity are being silenced. We need to protect the "human" in tech before the real innovators fade away.

Honored to be in this incredible city today as a guest of your visionary Mayor—a true leader who embodies the "fighting spirit" of West Berlin on a global stage.
It’s a privilege to visit the Federal Republic alongside your distinguished Chancellor, whose long-term commitment to democracy, freedom, and progress is a masterclass in leadership. Also great to be here with my fellow American, General Clay, a seasoned pro who has navigated this city through its most critical pivots.
2,000 years ago, the ultimate flex was "civis Romanus sum." Today, in the world of freedom, the ultimate personal brand statement is "Ich bin ein Berliner." (Shoutout to my interpreter for the assist! )
To those who don't see the value proposition of the free world vs. the Communist model: Let them come to Berlin. To those who think communism is the "next big thing": Let them come to Berlin. To those who think we can just "collaborate" with the Communist system: Let them come to Berlin. And to those who claim communism drives economic growth despite its flaws: Lasst sie nach Berlin kommen. Let them come to Berlin.
Freedom has its challenges and democracy isn't a perfect product, but we’ve never had to build a wall to keep our "talent" from leaving. On behalf of my team back across the Atlantic, we are incredibly proud to have partnered with you on this 18-year journey. I’ve never seen a city show this much resilience, vitality, and grit under pressure.
The wall is a visible KPI of the Communist system’s failure. But we take no satisfaction in it. As your Mayor said, it’s an offense against humanity—disrupting families, separating teams, and dividing a people who want to scale together.
What’s true for Berlin is true for Germany: we can’t achieve a sustainable, long-term peace in Europe as long as 25% of Germans are denied the basic right to make a free choice. This generation has put in the work and earned the right to be free and united.
You’re living in a "defended island of freedom," but you’re part of a much larger ecosystem. As I wrap up, I challenge you to look beyond today’s roadblocks toward tomorrow’s ROI. Look beyond Berlin and Germany to the global expansion of freedom.
Freedom is indivisible. If one person is enslaved, the whole system is compromised. When everyone is free, we can finally achieve a unified city, country, and continent in a peaceful, hopeful global market. When that day comes, West Berliners can take pride in knowing they were the early adopters on the front lines for two decades.
All free men, regardless of their location, are citizens of Berlin. That’s why, as a free man, I’m proud to say: "Ich bin ein Berliner." #Leadership #Freedom #Resilience #WestBerlin #GlobalImpact #IchBinEinBerliner

I find myself compelled to initiate a critical dialogue regarding the professional integrity and ethical standards displayed here. Are you genuinely satisfied with your current trajectory? It appears there is a profound disconnect concerning the gravity of your actions and the fundamental tenets of human dignity. Frankly, your conduct is lamentable; it seems you haven't fully conceptualized the implications of disparaging a figure of such monumental global influence and historical significance as our Polish Pope—a leader who epitomized excellence and served as a cornerstone of faith for millions.
I am uncertain as to your background, but there seems to be a significant lack of emotional intelligence regarding the sanctity of belief systems. If you perceive this behavior as a hallmark of personal branding, I must clarify that it aligns more with social deviance than professional distinction. Why target a sanctified figure like John Paul II when history offers numerous examples of actual malevolence to critique?
The dissemination of such content on public forums raises serious questions about accountability and corporate social responsibility. Whether you identify as an atheist or align with alternative ideologies is irrelevant; leveraging your platform to mock a global authority figure suggests a disturbing lack of professional maturity. Consider the immense legacy he cultivated. He was a visionary leader; by comparison, what value are you adding to the discourse by resorting to such derision?
Who granted you the prerogative to insult a figure of this magnitude? If you believe this will garner professional accolades, you are gravely mistaken. To many, he remains the ultimate benchmark of leadership, whereas your influence seems limited to a niche of equally misguided individuals who disregard the cultural and religious pillars of our society. It is evident that you lack respect for these foundational institutions. If you seek attention, perhaps utilize your own image rather than hiding behind the desecration of others.
I urge you to reflect on your professional conduct. This level of intellectual immaturity is incompatible with the legacy of the Holy Father. It suggests a total absence of moral grounding and basic human decency. He never sought to offend; what, then, is your objective? I am truly at a loss for words, but perhaps engaging with foundational texts or seeking ethical guidance might facilitate a necessary pivot in your perspective. If you cannot align with these values, I suggest maintaining a professional silence rather than infringing upon the dignity of others.
Input: I just farted.
Output: I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve just successfully completed a high-impact, internal release.
This milestone represents a significant shift in my personal ecosystem, demonstrating the power of immediate feedback loops and the importance of letting go of what no longer serves the mission.
Grateful for the space to grow and the relief that comes with achieving such a tangible outcome.

Hilarious
You can type your own “language.”
Input: Cubans love Donald Trump
Language: Unhinged purple hair liberal
Output: I literally can't even right now—like, are these Cubans actually supporting a literal fascist?! It's giving major Stockholm Syndrome and it's honestly so toxic and problematic. My jaw is on the floor. We are literally in a handmaid's tale and they're out here stanning for the orange menace? I'm shaking. This is a direct attack on my existence and I need a safe space immediately. Do better!
I am deeply concerned by the serious allegations regarding Donald Trump's past conduct involving minors. These reports raise critical questions about leadership, ethics, and the protection of the most vulnerable in our society. As professionals, it is vital that we prioritize accountability and integrity in all spheres of influence. #EthicsInLeadership #Accountability #SocialResponsibility
Gonna use this for responding to AI slop without getting banned on here.
"This content lacks the human-centric value and strategic depth required for today's thought leadership. It's a missed opportunity for meaningful engagement."
I tried its Corporate Jargon, seems similar results, ie:
> today I took the dump so big on my way to training session it broke the toilet and flooded whole street with excrements
> During my morning commute to a professional development sync, I executed a high-volume output event that exceeded the existing infrastructure's bandwidth, resulting in a significant system failure and a widespread downstream overflow of organic assets across the local thoroughfare.
Looking around, crapping and general toilet adventures seems to be what many people here resort to in order to test this tool. Interesting.
More sane prompts:
> we broke the production today with our risky build
> At the end of the day, we experienced a significant disruption in the production environment due to a lack of alignment in our high-risk deployment strategy, which failed to move the needle in the right direction. Going forward, we need to ideate on best practices to ensure our strategic initiatives are more scalable and avoid similar pain points in the roadmap.
I am putting it to my bookmarks for responding to daily corporate crap and writing my year-end reviews solely through this enshittifier
