It's refreshing to feel us try and push the societal envelope again after two decades of stagnation. I only hope it doesn't go the way our proposed-but-torpedoed carbon emissions tax in the late 2000s and the butchered NBN rollout

To qualify "insane speed" for anyone unaware, think a 10x improvement over even Cerebras. On the order of ~15,000 tokens/s. Not saying their approach scales well enough to keep pace with the various frontiers, but using their

Does your terminal emulator not support bells/notifications? If it does, Claude Code (and albeit without checking surely Codex too) supports them natively.

I'm grateful that this is possible via Up bank here in Australia. Webhooks push the data through a free-tier Worker on Cloudflare and into YNAB within a second of the transaction going through. Full updates across pending/cleared

I like the comparison, but I'm not sure it holds. What did it cost him to develop beyond intangibles such as his time and money forgone? Because the latter especially is not equivalent to upfront capex and opex costs that preempt any a

This is fantastic, as others have said. Could you talk a bit about how it's so wonderfully fast?

It's articles such as this that truly make me sit back and marvel at our species. What an incredible accomplishment.

We were doing LTSC for Windows 10 years back as well, so I'm genuinely curious about any resources on this. We're very by-the-book and I'd be incredibly shocked to find we're actually in violation of any laws/ToS.

I couldn't disagree more. In a fight for existential survival, repelling an invader at any cost constitutes a win. It may almost be pyrrhic in the end, but deterrence is invaluable. Not to lose sight of the very real cost, down to ever

This makes me incredibly grateful for having a regulator with teeth in Australia. AFCA very recently awarded me (well, my mum whom I was helping) $1,000 with very little work due to Bank of Queensland temporarily locking an account.

Seconding the correction that LTSC is not restricted to hardware OEMs. I work for a multinational construction materials company and we image LTSC machines day in day out.

I tried this on the iOS 27 beta with Siri AI and it worked, to an approximation. It'll take 5 minutes from the original timer just fine, but not from the remaining time no matter which way I phrase it. Still, a massive improvement in m

Dr. Richard Scolyer was at the forefront of this, and died only recently after a long battle against brain cancer at 59. His open letter is well worth the read. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-06-08/professor-rich

Come on, a problem nobody really had? I wholeheartedly disagree. Data loss and the orthogonal problem of lacking free space on computers is/was a massive problem at enterprise scale and OneDrive, for all its many shortcomings, is well

Find your criticisms of others and, if valid, air them. But surely, don't expect others to be silent in the face of harmful and terrible voices.

Your alternative is that the contract was forged. Something easily falsifiable in court and absolutely devastating to any case brought, not to mention any follow-on charges that may result. Is that what you're putting forward?

If your enemy can kill you with impunity, you are in fact, threatened.

My god, man. Go read the HN guidelines, this method of communication isn't only insufferable to read, but is actively making this place worse to be a participant of.

What? Many celebrities are so specifically because they're impressive. Athletes and musicians being the two most obvious examples.

HN guidelines strongly encourage me not calling you an asinine twat, so I won't do that. As your other reply highlighted, no one's arguing thermodynamics with you. It's clearly a behavioural phenomenon, and one that isn'

Scott & Tomoko's site, the former tiktok.com, was particularly touching as a time capsule of the pre-9/11 world. I wonder where, and who, they are now, if they are at all.

It may well have been your point, but that it's the exact same person makes this even better

Dark pattern is the term you're (incorrectly) describing.

You've put a lot into this, that much is clear. However, this suffers from the usual problem of the era of abundant bespoke tooling: It's hard to figure out what this even does . I read the README, the examples, and the scoring

Queensland allows residents to see the details of offenders in our local area, but you need to provide extensive ID to do so, and leaking that information is itself a crime. Daniel's Law was introduced in 2025 so this is pretty recent.
