I had the same thought about the death count when I was 11 years old. Then you grow up and realize why an attack of that nature on American soil was and still is the big deal. That's how they were able to push the PATRIOT Act and norma

When it comes to CEO actions I'd unfortunately still choose Elon over Jackoff if the question is which site to use because the latter has shown when he ran Twitter that he will happily manipulate and censor discourse to appease the cur

Not to mention coming from something like Niri, or even default Gnome to MacOS Tahoe is just gimping productivity tenfold. It is so incredibly unintuitive in every way for window management and keyboard shortcuts and everything in between.

I'm doing the same thing. Set up a honeypot API and having it log everything anything tries to access outside that home page. Collected 15,000 hits in a week from 300 unique IPs doing the usual WordPress and .env scans. I'm just c

I noticed this too. It's a number I've had for years and have barely given out to anyone. Registered for a DUNS number last month and have been getting all sorts of spam calls from all different area codes. I assumed it was due to

With all the botting and slop going on right now on HN I'd say these once annoyances are now quite arbitrary. I'm sure it bothered you and maybe one other person at this point in time, but it's pretty damn easy to scroll past

Do you use DeepSeek for both planning and building or do you have a preferred builder? I've been looking into moving from Cursor to OpenCode, or at least have Opencode for when my allocated usage for the month is done.

I think it's arguable that following the guidelines post-Tahoe will lead to a worse UI.

I believe we were talking about this basically being Web 3.0 / The Semantic Web almost 20 years ago. The internet then went in the opposite direction of locking data down and limiting 3rd party clients

VirtualBox (with Guest Additions) has Seamless Mode if you're using X. I'm really not sure about the status of it using Wayland.

I sure do love these irrelevant and heavily opinionated political social justice woes with all the usual buzzwords all over Hacker News these days.

In the current state, it's basically just a self verification. When you use a new device it shows a series of emoji on each device and asks you if they're the same, then the device is verified.

Just to piggyback off this I had a similar thought. I read your post about the tool rental, got to the page and immediately saw random articles which unfortunately this AI age has got me to distrust that things are human written/curate

Can you further elaborate on this robots.txt? I was under the impression most AI just completely ignores anything to do with robots.txt so you may just be hitting the ones that are maybe attempting to obey it? I'm not against the idea

The fact that every single person that brings this up is met with a form of "we don't see a problem, you're just reading it wrong" is a bad sign for the future of this project.

I noticed this years ago while drunk on a bench staring at a sunny Alaska day, and have never been able to unsee it. It's completely ruined my lifelong enjoyment I would get from watching the clouds. It's one of those things that
