Software to Test Ideas

Most people write software to:

• Earn money
• Get attention
• Give tools to solve a need

I do it to test ideas about the real world.

1. Libgen Search

   • I built this to see if an AI can find books I miss on my own.
   • It worked. The AI gave me new, helpful books.
   • So AI can help my way of knowing things.

2. Reddit Search

   • I made a tool to find posts on taboo stuff.
   • It gave no big gain over Google with “site:reddit.com”.
   • Google alone works fine for such topics.

3. LLM Stylometric Dox

   • I want to see if style-based dox is real.
   • Not sure yet, but I see how the tool might look.
   • Needs more raw data and more direct search (like grep).
   • Big data sellers skip robots.txt and have more info.
   • Style checks help cut a group from 1000 to 1.
   • But not as well from 1 million to 1.
   • So we must mix style checks with normal clues.
