ClikeX··on LLMs corrupt your documents when you delegate
> And for in-place edits, you can review "git diff" for surprises.

I don't let AI touch git anyway, and I always review the diff after it generated stuff. If it modifies my documentation, I always want to check if it messed with the text instead of just added formatting.

ClikeX··on Serving a website on a Raspberry Pi Zero running in RAM
It reminds me of the footage of Doom running on a pregnancy test. And then it turned out it was another computer just displaying to the build in AMOLED display.

What was supposed to be a cool achievement is rendered pointless when one of the key elements is offloaded elsewhere.

ClikeX··on Rumors of my death are slightly exaggerated
This is about as Monthy Pythonesque as it's going to get in here.
ClikeX··on Rumors of my death are slightly exaggerated
They did add nuance to that quote a long time ago. It's a good stance, it's fine if someone knows something to be true. But other visitors of Wikipedia don't know that, so anything that's added without a source is questionable.
ClikeX··on Maybe you shouldn't install new software for a bit
I'm somehow reminded of Wile E Coyoto running off a ledge, staying afloat until he realizes there is no more ground under his feet.
ClikeX··on Tesla is recalling its cheaper Cybertruck because the wheels might fall off
I saw the title of the post, and I knew somebody would have referenced it.
ClikeX··on Before GitHub
I already saw fossilhub.io mentioned in this thread, actually.
ClikeX··on Who owns the code Claude Code wrote?
That still sounds incredibly vague and open for interpretation. For example, is setting up md files defining how you want things to be written enough?
ClikeX··on Android now stops you sharing your location in photos
For that sweet local guide score.
ClikeX··on Tell HN: Docker pull fails in Spain due to football Cloudflare block
The wacky thing is. It's blocked due to legal action.
ClikeX··on If you don't opt out by Apr 24 GitHub will train on your private repos
The setting isn't even visible to everyone. If you're currently in an org that manages copilot business, it's gone. I imagine it instantly opts you back in when you leave an org.
ClikeX··on If you don't opt out by Apr 24 GitHub will train on your private repos
How do you handle accounts that have copilot managed by an organisation? I've seen several cases where people cannot opt out their account because of the org connection (the option just isn't there in the settings). What happens to their account the moment they leave that org?
ClikeX··on Meta’s AI smart glasses and data privacy concerns
I don't actively use Facebook and I block most(?) of the tracking, but I do have an account simply because most of the information about my area is on there. This means events, safety updates, second hand shit.
ClikeX··on Meta’s AI smart glasses and data privacy concerns
Body cams are directly visible, and are there to add accountability to the actions of law enforcement. These glasses are covert cameras. Someone that doesn't know what they look like isn't going to know someone might be filming. That's a big difference.

Not sure how it is where you live, but doorbell cameras are commonly criticized where I live. With many people claiming they don't feel comfortable walking around anymore knowing that the entire neighborhood is filming them.

ClikeX··on Keep Android Open
There are several that plug into Safari, and Pihole just works. Does Android have ad blockers that do more? It's been a few years since I switched.
ClikeX··on ICE using Palantir tool that feeds on Medicaid data
The nazi's were easily able to find jews in the Netherlands because of thorough census data. Collection of that data was considered harmless when they did it. But look at what kind of damage that kind of information can do.
ClikeX··on Can Bundler be as fast as uv?
Of all the languages I've touched, managing multiple ruby versions has been one of the easiest.
ClikeX··on GitHub postponing the announced billing change for self-hosted GitHub Actions
Yeah, the per minute pricing is what really does it. It makes me think they've gone with the worst option first, so people will swallow the new adjusted workflow they'll come up with.
ClikeX··on GitHub postponing the announced billing change for self-hosted GitHub Actions
Yes, and there are several tools that do just that already. The thing Github Actions offers is logging and storage of artifacts.

This change is a very weird one. Because the teams that are capable of setting up their own runners have the means to easily jump ship to another CI platform and skip these fees altogether.

ClikeX··on GitHub postponing the announced billing change for self-hosted GitHub Actions
The cost of the control plan for Github and the cost of their runners are not equal. Yet this new plan seems to say a self-hosted minute is counted the same as a hosted minute, since self-hosted minutes count towards the 2000 included minutes.
ClikeX··on Paramount launches hostile bid for Warner Bros
Real people work in this industry, though. A merger of this size is bound to come with some layoffs and canceled projects.

It's not as bad as food scarcity, of course. But it can do some collateral damage.

ClikeX··on Can Dutch universities do without Microsoft?
The trap of Microsoft is long contracts and setting up dependency. In many cases it was a big undertaking to get the current setup, now try convincing anyone to tear it out.
ClikeX··on Bringing Sexy Back. Internet surveillance has killed eroticism
Go to any photography subreddit that's not already focused on nudity or sex. Any photo with naked women will get more upvotes than most other submissions. It can be an objectively bad photo, that doesn't really matter.
ClikeX··on WinBoat: Windows apps on Linux with seamless integration
I doubt it, Proton is the driving force behind the SteamDeck, their own hardware offering. If it wasn't for Proton, that thing wouldn't work at all.
ClikeX··on WinBoat: Windows apps on Linux with seamless integration
To be fair. Neither can my MacBook, and that is an official release.
ClikeX··on WinBoat: Windows apps on Linux with seamless integration
Agreed, a lot of product pages read like Rick & Morty's interdimensional cable.
ClikeX··on Shai-Hulud malware attack: Tinycolor and over 40 NPM packages compromised
If you won't, do you expect the maintainer of some micro package to do that?
ClikeX··on Emailing a one-time code is worse than passwords
Could be worse, I still sometimes get my password emailed in plain text by companies when I do that.
ClikeX··on The best programmers I know
> Oftentimes, it’s surprisingly accessible and well-written

I'm happy this person works with quality software. I haven't been always been as lucky.

ClikeX··on Browsercraft: Java Minecraft in the browser
It's basically LEGO, it tickles the mind. Which is ironic, because LEGO Worlds isn't nearly as inspiring as Minecraft.
