The 1992 Rage Against the Machine song, Wake Up (which appeared in The Matrix movie) has a section that is a reading of a COINTELPRO memo from J. Edgar Hoover.

I was also confused until I read the abstract. This is the FINITE Monkeys Theorem.

>Here, we consider the Finite Monkeys Theorem and look at the probability of a given string being typed by one of a finite number of monkeys within a finite time allocation consistent with estimates for the lifespan of our universe.

I misread finite as infinite multiple times.

The summarization feature has been an insane time saver for me.

On the cybersecurity front there are so many research articles, conference videos, and news articles just constantly flooding your feeds. There was an article on HN recently about the importance of "Critical Ignoring", to know what to ignore.

This has been a key tool in speeding that process up. Especially conference materials and news articles. They have such clickbait titles, it can be hard to determine what is legit and what is obvious. For news you can get a use the source as a fairly decent gauge on what the articles will be (quality wise). But for conference materials it is so hard. Summarization with the "Key Moments" lets you quickly determine if I should dig in more or not.

The Discuss option is super helpful on huge framework/audit documents to help you figure out is this the standard that requires xyz vs the other one. Once i know i'm in the right doc then i can zero in on what I was looking for.

Presenting Kagi as a tool for use in our larger Principal/Architect team next week. Will be very interested in Enterprise/Corporate plans once they are a thing.

Thanks for all the work Vlad (and team)!

I was annoyed by the key bindings/controllers at first as well. But once i found the section that shares community created controller mappings, i have only ran into one game that didn't have a controller config that worked well.

This reminded me of the Bee Dance Game[0] on Arizona State University's site.
