Did Gemini created this Silicon Valley TV show episode script? Makes so much sense...

Yep. It's NOT possible to sign up OCI without a payment method now. I signed up late last month and observed the same.

Additionally, it's next to impossible to spin up a free instance even if you provision it under the limit. Every single availability zone in the U.S. have all been constantly "emitting out of capacity" errors for free tier resource allocation. Ironically, if you provisioning beyond the free tier, they are ALL success.

So it looks like Oracle shawdow banned the free tier (or only allow a fixed set of free tier resources that are completely saturated all the time (unless someone spin down their free tier instances).

I've been a Electrek reader for almost a decade. It's interesting to see its editor Fred Lambert from super pro-Telsa/Musk when fighting EV vs. ICE cars to anti-Telsa/Musk when Musk got into politics.

Of course Musk knew multi-modality would win true Level 4 autonomous driving. It was a calculated tradeoff to work on vision first when LiDAR (components cost 10s of thousands and unreliable for continuous functioning) and Radar (components cost thousands) when Telsa was battling production hell and has real threat of not making it.

Millions of Tesla on the road and 100s of thousands supercharging stations later, LiDAR becomes more reliable and affordable (just like how Tesla made the lithium batteries affordable).

Could Tesla re-incorporate LiDAR + Radar into their sensing stack in the future. I think so! After all, just a few short years ago, Telsa threw away of their 300k+ lines of C++ initial AI software stack based of MobileEye OEM in opting in their own Deep Learning based neural network model. Now, they might still there are still room for camera/vision only assisted driving technology.

Waymo's modified Jaguar model costs $150k-$200k apiece fully loaded with 3 modalities. Tesla Cybercab production cost is below $30k. They are on DIFFERENT segment. Comparing them is like comparing Toyota Corolla vs. Feferrari for their engine output, absurd!

So, this article feels like another emotional biased hit piece of Lambert jabbing at Musk which is daily occurrence now at Electrek.

A lot has shared the same experience you described. Myself included.

Is this how every auditor does though or just you/Deloitte? SOC 2 is a set of guidelines, not mandates, there is one size fits all and every org may design their own security controls based on their unique systems. Is that the same philosophy on the auditing side as well?

your share the conversation doesn't have the blocks you listed above.

According to aljazeera's article, "the core investor would be a New York venture capital investment firm created by Joshua Kushner, the brother of US President Donald Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner."

Thanks for the tip! Yeah, I think Mitchell Hashimoto (ssh CLI command came from his new company's official site) can be trusted here. If they were doing Github pub key harvesting for analytics though, it would be a interesting tracking pixel equivalent!

I got Opus 5 lots of HTTP 529 errors. By switching to Fable 5, it seems to be working still.

I actually heard of that.

Yes, prefilter for sure.

Wow, that "We're hiring/Career Page" link is geeksmaxxing.

First time seeing `ssh superlogical.jobs` would be a way to show job descriptions in terminal!

Doubleword AI is conducting a classic textbook marketing trick called newsjacking.

Writing a detailed technical post behind the news of Kimi K3 and KDA algorithm with an audacious title like "You Could Have Invent Breakthrough It too" they are pre-filtering out the ones who couldn't comprehend with quick read (myself included) and attracting the ones who agreed with the blog post. At the end with a strong CTA to promoting their 10x cheapter open weight model AI inference and hiring too.

Good job Doubleword, I see what you are doing there.

So you think JetZero's blended-wing body (BWB) aircraft design will be killed by regulators? Why?

Btw, it will take hydrogen propulsion for their planes to be zero CO2 emission.

Docs full of emojis, this is another AI slop?!

Tangential note: there is already a community effort[1] to rewrite GNU commandline tools into Rust and Canonical shipped the rust version of the /bin/utils in Ubuntu 26.04 Resolute Raccoon by default[2] in their "oxidizing" initiative.[3]

PS: Linus Torvalds has confirmed that the existing Linux kernel will never be fully rewritten in Rust.[4] Let's see how well that statement age.

Apparently, NOT! Apple's controversial Liquid Glass UI disrupted their long-standing Human Interface Guidelines by prioritizing cinematic aesthetics (transparency, refractions, and blur) over core tenets like readability, contrast, and content deference. Critics highlight that transparent, light-bending panes frequently clash with underlying wallpapers or videos, causing text and buttons to become illegible. This is a HOT topic in recent WWDCs and amongst UI designers.[1]

Gary Bernhardt's Wat lightning talk [1] was my favorite of all time.

It's only 2 years predates this talk in the title.

AI and their armies of agents has been making the job search much much worse for both employers and employees - the reason is simply, spamming becomes extremely cheap and easy - sometimes it's literally one prompt away.

Find offline channels to connect with potential employers in person is your best bet, IMO. Good luck job search!

I can't believe promoting the QR code-based challenge as the agentic way of fraud defense. Having non-human readable data input is dangerous if somehow the QR code is comprised with a zero-day URL, it's game-over.

Note: I know QR code is ubiquitous these days, but still blinding scanning a QR code to go to accessing an URL is like running a binary downloaded from the internet.

Note2: yes, the `curl $URL | bash` installation approach is essentially just that, yet somehow became popular.

We need one for Anthropic's Claude: https://status.claude.com/

IMO, Claude is not fairing any better than Github.

I am an early GitHub user with low 6 digit user ID (joined around 2011 with a two letter handle). I approve Mitchell's message.

It's been painful to use GitHub these days, user experience practically went down the toilet with ridiculous pains like CVEs [1][2], slow and ineffective and expensive GitHub Actions that doesn't allow local execution instead a "push & pray" workflow leading to repetitive "commit-push-wait" cycles to debug CI errors or bugs and then the absolutely horrendous Arkose Lab's Octocaptcha[3][4]. Note that only new users are encountering the Octocaptcha at account creation time, the amount of the time I wasted on solving these ridiculous visual or audio captchas are insane. I happened to need to create 3 separate accounts for the orgs that I am consulting for recently, each time it was at least 20-30 minutes to go through the account creation process. Sure it blocks some AI bots, but can't GitHub team create something that doesn't hinder the user experience?! Oh, if you have uBlock Origin or Privacy Guard on (which I did), it will take longer because each failed answer will set you back for another 5-10 mins of puzzle time!

Plus the reliability issues that Mitchell mentioned. Mona the Octocat jumped the shark in 2026. RIP.

This reminds me the 2008-2009 era where Mac OS X Leopard was running Hackintosh on Dell Mini 9 and some other netbooks.

At $349, it was almost a fully functional laptop that runs on Mac OS X (comparing to over $1000+ MacBooks or $1599 MacBook Pros)

Two friends of mine literally working remotely in an Africa trip with Dell Mini 9 and mobile hotspots and were doing video conferencing with Skype (on Wi-Fi).

> Bad code works fine until it doesn't.

Who is to judge the "good" or "bad" anyway?

The high cost of high end DRAM (4GB+) cost skyrocketing has caused some interesting shifts:

1. Shifting Hobbyist Focus: Because hobbyists typically prefer parts under the $100 mark (so they don't "fret over breaking them"), the community is shifting away from modern, high-powered SBCs. Instead, people are moving toward:

2. Older SBC models (like the Pi 3 or 4 with lower RAM).

3. Microcontrollers (like the RP2040) which remain cheap. So Used hardware and "repurposing" old tech is retro trending again.

IMO, perhaps there will be push to make software/firmware more RAM efficient with AI assisted coding?

Your point of "I think we’d find that many websites we use are doing this" doesn't make LinkedIn's behavior ok!

By your logic, if our privacy rights are invaded which is illegal in most jurisdiction, and then it become ok because many companies do illegal things??

LinkedIn has been a weirdest social network for a long time.

Yep. False report.
