facts.

We're already 20 miles off shore and in the typhoon.

There's very little, if any, incentive to do anything more securely than absolutely necessary. It is only a problem, when it is a problem and is treated that way in nearly every org I've worked in.
goonersallofyou··on Waymo to start Tokyo robotaxi service next year in Asia push
Ah yes, Robo taxis in the one city in the world that has absolutely no need for them!

Tokyo's public transportation system is amazingly good, and the one or two times that I've needed to take a taxi (usually late night arrival from an airport or something) it was literally white glove service.

goonersallofyou··on XCancel service is suspended until further notice
Oh, interesting that might explain it!
goonersallofyou··on XCancel service is suspended until further notice
Last week I was getting hit with the login requirement constantly, not at first but after scrolling a little bit or clicking on a link. This week, haven't seen that once.
goonersallofyou··on XCancel service is suspended until further notice
Reddit seems to have reversed course with making users sign in as well (or my adblock has updated and removed the forced login modal or something.) but my thought was simply: "Well, I guess I just won't view Reddit content anymore, big whoop."

So much this.

I don't understand how some people seem to have no self awareness or shame in saying "I build X" where "X" was entirely prompted by an LLM.

It's like ordering a meal from door dash and calling yourself a chef.

goonersallofyou··on Programming is Art
It sounds like you have a very narrow understanding of what Art can be.
goonersallofyou··on Elevated Errors for Multiple Models
Both claude and codex down at the same time! Might actually get some quality code merged in today for a change!
goonersallofyou··on ChatGPT outage – Resolved
good.
goonersallofyou··on Is it just me, or has Claude Opus gotten worse recently?
LLMs are nondeterministic, good luck trying to measure performance at all, much less over time.

Lets say it has gotten worse? What are you going to do about it? Jump to Codex? Then what happen if you perceive that to be getting worse? Jump back to Claude? One of the many problems with these tools.

goonersallofyou··on Debian developer resigns after corporate LLM use without disclosure wins vote
It doesn't matter. People are choosing to use it or not use it for their own personal reasons and a Debian developer is not going to change their minds either way.
goonersallofyou··on Tell HN: PayPal blocks GrapheneOS
One thing that I'm actually excited about regarding AI is that the pointless policy checkboxes that have never been effective in adding any actual security are even less so effective now that everyone can wield their very own security researcher.
goonersallofyou··on Tell HN: PayPal Blocks GrapheneOS
I remember when I had to boot up an old windows machine because TurboTax refused to run on a Linux (might have been something related to flash as well... been too long to recall), then I just ran Windows in a VM, then extensions allowed me to do User-Agent spoofing (honestly should have thought of this sooner), and now they don't seem to care at all. I did my taxes on OpenBSD last year.
goonersallofyou··on Ask HN: Interesting Tech Adjacent Jobs?
I sell uniquely shaped heirloom cucumbers from my back yard, like specifically the ones that accidentally grow in weird shapes. I make six figures.

Seriously though, I can't find anything remotely non-tech without taking making at most 1/3 of what I make in tech. Seppuku might be on the table if I didn't have children.

The spectrum is strong with this crowd...

Surely, a coincidence.

There's vomit on my sweater already, Claude's spaghetti.
