Do you have a source for any of these conjectures or is it just vibes?

Agreed, I have been doing this for years without consequences so far

You're not a real programmer if you don't have a "I vibe code AI slop in NextJS" sticker on your MacBook

I'm also very disappointed with the Airpods Pro 3

I use them mainly for running, and after I accidentally put my Pro 2s through a washer/dryer cycle, I ordered the Pro 3s, but I've noticed they feel heavier in the ears and make this annoying loud thumping sound every time my foot hits the ground, making them almost unusable for my primary purpose

Also sometimes I fall asleep in bed with them while listening to a podcast, and have experienced the same painfully loud screeching as described by the article when the microphones brush against the pillow

> where restaurants ask first if you have allergies

Pretty common expectation in many countries. I was surprised to see this is not normally a thing in the US, given how we're led to believe how much you guys love to sue each other.

I like to actually checkout the branch I'm reviewing and run the code myself to observe if it does what is claimed, that usually takes up at least 10 minutes in itself, sometimes more.

From my experience most of the issues I find are actually from this type of observation rather than actually reading the code and imagining what it does in my head.

If he truly believes that, he should have no problem disclosing all of his private and personal messages and emails to us, for everyone to see on the internet.

The truth is that this is just another corrupt politician.

Probably better for you guys that UK is out now, our government would have been salivating at the thought of spying on every citizen without repercussions

In some countries you're not allowed to call them milk, for example, in the UK a judge ruled that they must be called something like "oat drink" instead.

It has shitty LPDDR4X memory

I'm a big fan of Toxiproxy for these kinds of things:

I feel you, at our workplace someone added some AI Code review thing and it slops the whole PR with useless sequence diagrams and poems (why would I want to read an AI slop poem?) and pages and pages of instructions on how to interact with it.

Our Slack channel is also completely slopped to the point it's mostly bot conversations constantly spamming about review reminders, pull request statuses, and other useless info you can just look up yourself if you need it.

The signal to noise ratio is to the point where I just ignore everything.

What you're describing is a time-lock puzzle (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-lock_puzzle) and there are ways to do it but none of them are perfect

Does it though? It's blatantly obvious sarcasm

The most placebo button I've ever seen is that "Don't show Shorts" where it says something like "We'll show you less Shorts" and then they reappear 30 minutes later

I guess every content platform is moving to forcefully shoving slop into your face now

I assume a large portion of high quality training material is in English

Because it.. kind of looks like the death star?

That's if the price of electricity doesn't change in the next 87 years

The panels are also a hedge against that uncertainty and provide self reliance

It takes a text prompt along with the image input, dancing is presumably what they've used for the examples

Gemini 2.5 Pro does this annoying thing where it decides to refactor every part of your code even if you didn't ask, and also it outputs way too many damn comments on almost every line in the style of:

// Increment variable by 1

I find Claude 3.7 better at following instructions, even though the solutions it comes up with may not be the best at times

I wish there was a more internationally friendly version of NYT Games, they're so fun and I play them daily but a lot US cultural knowledge is required at times

I'm in Europe and still use my Amex for everything I can.

It has no membership fee, I get 0.5% cashback which is free money, and one time a merchant failed to deliver an order and they gave me back my money within like 10 minutes of me raising a dispute

If I had used my debit card with my normal bank it would probably take a week to resolve, and I'd be the one out of pocket in the meantime

That's just like.. your opinion man. The whole point is it should be configurable so users can set their preference.

Personally I am blinded by light mode and it hurts and strains my eyes, everyone is different.

Is it actually that bad?

I've been really enjoying the AI notification summaries, they're a nice combination of time saving and comedy

I don't think I'm doing anything crazy, the odd game from steam, some ML models from huggingface, running a Plex server for myself and friends/family. I checked my usage and regularly exceed 1TB every month, so that's why I was put off.

I've been lucky that a new ISP came to my area and I can avoid Openreach infrastructure completely, they've put a FTTH line directly into my house and offer up to 8Gbps symmetrical

I see that A&A have finally started offering uncapped data plans since August, good on them, since that originally put me off and I never signed up with them despite all the praise they get on HN

I live alone so no :)

If it was bothering other people around me I'd listen with my airpods.

Interestingly, my parents who are in their 60s, have no problems getting to sleep early, and they both fall asleep together to TV all the time, mostly watching reruns of old shows like Columbo

Same, I'm nocturnal and a naturally anxious person. If I lie in bed doing nothing, I will just think about things that make me more anxious.

A nice podcast or documentary will focus my thoughts on whatever I'm listening to and help me fall asleep easier.

Let's be real, they are not going to stop doing that, so now we're stuck with a shitty law and a shitty internet experience.

I use an extension called "I still don't care about cookies", and without it, the web is rage inducingly unbrowsable in Europe.
