It feels worse because its written output is fucking insane, and has progressively been getting worse to this point.

This article is somewhat misleading. The court only ruled that "OpenAI" is descriptive. It did not rule that it can never be registered. A descriptive trademark can still be registered with evidence that the mark has become distin

This sort of rejection is quite common. You can overcome the objection by submitting evidence that your mark has acquired distinctiveness through use. So there will be plenty of trademarks that seem generic/descriptive that have gone t

Yes this is clearly verbatim output from an LLM. But it's perfect HN bait, really. The title is spicy enough that folks will comment without reading the article (more so than usual), and so it survives a bit longer before being flagged

Yes. The over-use of bold in the intro (hell, in the first sentence) is a good hint. All of it aligns with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Signs_of_AI_writing Maybe the images were made by hand.

It’s entirely written by an LLM.

Great post and a great little tool. Some of my experience using these techniques in production: 1. Trilateration mostly doesn't work with internet routing, unlike GPS. Other commenters have covered this in more detail. So the approach

Much of the internet still does not support IPv6, so most providers will give you an IPv4 address. In fact only a few providers even support IPv6 at all. Even with IPv6 it's not a huge problem. With a few samples we can know that a pro

Working on improving the data pipeline for https://iplocate.io - an IP intelligence service I've worked on since 2017. A couple of recent focuses: 1. VPN and proxy detection. We already track dozens of providers, but we ca

It won’t end up in our proxy detection database, but we track hosting provider ranges separately: https://www.iplocate.io/data/hosting-providers/

There are plenty of VPN and proxy detection services, either as a service (API) or downloadable database, which are surprisingly comprehensive. Disclaimer: I’ve run one since 2017. Years on, our primary data source is literally holding doze

Most of these providers are in fact open about the fact that these locations are “virtual”, so it’s misleading to say they don’t match where they claim to be. There is however an interesting question about how VPNs should be considered from

Our government has been paying Deloitte & co. to produce slop for years before AI was being used to generate said slop. Can we get a refund for all of the others too?

ISPs have no obligation, although the ubiquity of sites and apps relying on IP geolocation mean that ISPs are incentivized to provide correct info these days. I run a geolocation service, and over the years we've seen more and more ISP

I thought this was going to be an analysis of articles that are clearly AI-generated. I feel like that’s an increasing ratio of top posts, and they’re usually an instant skip for me. Would be interested in some data to see if that’s true.

G2, Sourceforge (yes, that one), and Gartner’s Capterra/GetApp/SoftwareAdvice all have the same business plan: charge vendors $x,xxx+ per month to outrank other vendors in their made up categories. Of course, you can technically l

I've tried variations of this. I find it will often cause it to include cringey bullshit phrases like: "Here's your brutally honest answer–just the hard truth, no fluff: [...]" I don't know whether that's bette

You can look up the AS and other info, like detected proxies or VPNs, using the form on https://iplocate.io/what-is-my-ip (disclaimer: I've run this service since 2017). If they come from a consistent AS, you can block

We self-host nominatim as part of the iplocate.io pipeline. It works great, but the requirements are pretty heavy for something to host casually. An in-between for OP could be something like opencagedata.com, which is still a third-party AP

This looks similar to iplocate.io, which I’ve run since 2017. There are also plenty of others. Free and unlimited is going to be a tough deal to maintain forever if it gets popular. Good luck! Feel free to reach out if there’s anything I co
