I tend to agree, although I wonder if we won't get flooded by agents pretending to be regular users and submitting their slop to HN. It might well be happening already (e.g., [1]). Worse: it will get harder to differentiate what is a l

Except when you have multiple participants in the same room -- which happens pretty frequently in many business environments.

Only if you use a relay server. Direct connections in a local network are not encrypted, and RuskDesk doesn't plan on implementing it [1]. [1] https://github.com/rustdesk/rustdesk/issues/3714#issuecommen.

Unrelated, but it reminds me of this C64 demo [1] I posted earlier this week: the whole thing in 17.8 KB. [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49205592

And... it's gone. I guess mods don't like emoji in titles. Can't blame them; it draws a bit more attention than normal.

Both things can be true. SO was universally hated because they let (or actively incentivized) bullying run rampant and destroy the culture. And yes, it's possible AI would have killed it anyway, despite its best efforts. But in this ve

No, of course not coincidence. It's just that people didn't have an alternative until 2021-ish. Users hated SO for many years prior, but had nowhere to go other than small niche communities. When LLMs came into play, it was just t

Big fan of SW:KOTOR series. Would love to test Vestiges when ready. You should consider creating the game on Steam, so you can start building your audience.

You missed the point (and I should have clarified better). It's not that 1 Gbps is bad; it's pretty good, actually. And I do think Verizon is one of the least bad options. The problem is that there's zero competition. And w

I live in NYC, one of the most densely populated cities in the world, and yet Verizon Fios 1 Gbps is my only option. I tried to upgrade to Fios 2 Gbps, but it's not available. Spectrum only goes to 200Mbps; no other providers in my are

Dave Jones didn't spare words [1] on how insane it was to have a jellybean component changing specs so significantly, particularly the input voltage from 22V to 18V, the removal of offset trim, and more. [1] https://www.yout

Direct link, to save others a search: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4252730/Cosmic_Gold_Rush/ Well done! Reminds me of Atari's Asteroids, with a modern take.

It doesn't seem the case; the study was made purely on behavioral conditioning. And mosquitoes don't live very long, so it's unlikely they'd learn this in practice, outside of a very controlled environment. But there&#x2

It works well on Android. Just zoom in and click the number, and you can breakdown per state. Click on any state number and it breaks down per city. Pretty functional design.

It's really unfortunate that FPGA development is still stuck in the 90s. The incentives between IP owners and hobbyists are so misaligned that I don't see the possibility of this ever improving. The market is full of dark patterns

Plus now you get access to Safari books, and you also have their online library, so virtually any books you may need are accessible for free. (That's for the CS graduate program; not sure about others)

What a horrible title. This has nothing to do with PyTorch (other than the relationship you mentioned). A better title would be the Github repo title: "Computational Refutation of Quantum Superactivation"

This is awesome news. Thank you for the great work, and being so open to suggestions from the community. That's what makes Obsidian a world apart from all its competitors and predecessors.

This is fantastic news. Just a few days ago I mentioned [1] the Obsidian Community Plugins model was broken and needed an overhaul. This is a step in the right direction. If I may, two suggestions: 1) Allow the user to filter for plugins ba

Yes, in this specific case . Obsidian Plugins are still incredibly vulnerable. A compromised plugin will essentially take over your machine. There's no sandboxing of any kind. It's even more insecure than browser extensions (that

The answer is in your question: " ...through a vulnerable WordPress plugin, a web shell, weak SSH credentials, or a compromised container " DirtyFrag alone doesn't help an attacker; they need to get in first. But the blast ra
