There was a thread not too long ago where someone did stylometric analysis on HN, and quite a few users had true positive matches (though there were plenty false positives).

They later pulled the dataset, but antirez recreated it.

but your account is too young to be in the dataset. You could ask an LLM to recrunch the numbers with a newer dataset, though.

This is on purpose yes. I've taken to rotating my accounts everywhere on a semi-regular basis as a feeble low-effort mitigation that I'm sure will not hold once this gets into full blown deployment.

I know the HN community frowns on that but it's not like I rotate every day. Probably should for it to be effective though.

Thanks for the link I will try that out! I missed that happening.
