literallyroyon Backdoor in Claude Code for VS Code extension on the Cursor Marketplace

No the version was skipped. 2.1.314 was published instead. Issue is with Cursor marketplace nothing else.

literallyroyon GitLab Security Incident: Attempted Exploitation of CVE-2026-97229

I feel like this title downplays the scenario. I read “attempted” as unsuccessful, not as maybe entirely successful.

literallyroyon Cross-request KV cache exposure in the GLM-5.3 Workers AI model (155 responses)

Not sure if the title was edited but as is it is very clear to me this is a bug on their side and I have no idea how a technically literate person (someone using the model via cloudflare?) who would misinterpret given the reference to the cache.

literallyroyon Should Police Wipe a Criminal's Cellphone Before Returning It?–U.S. vs. Stathas

What’s the right/better way to express the my-words-but-not-me-saying-them quotes?

literallyroyon Making My Blog Readable by AI Agents

I once had oh-my-pi read a website’s llms.txt while doing research many months ago.

literallyroyon Meta ordered to pay $25B penalty in New Mexico Cambridge Analytica case

Thank you for the links! The snarky gotcha-style questions is surprisingly humanizing for the person being deposed.

literallyroyon Show HN: I told people I'm a convicted felon after 20 years of hiding it

Unfortunately there is no chapter 2 for me to pay for…

literallyroyon StreetComplete v64.0

iOS release is exciting. It looks like they’re waiting on the Apple review process.

literallyroyon Linux 7.3

I think in Linux world commits usually mean something which isn’t always the case at random company X. A commit being a meaningful change where number of lines doesn’t matter.

literallyroyon RimWorld 1.7 moves from Unity to Ludeon's in-house Waylith engine

Yes if they used notepad over a frontier IDE their refactors may have missed a reference. I demand to know which version of notepad they are using.

literallyroyon We're going to need default hard budget caps on pretty much everything

You’re right, I’m not sure what I was thinking when I commented. What I said is true of most subscription type services in the US but has absolutely nothing to do with usage based models here.

literallyroyon We're going to need default hard budget caps on pretty much everything

It’s generally a solution in the US since invoicing for non-enterprise software is almost non-existent. The only time I’ve seen it was from a HN post complaining about being charged for after a free trial that didn’t require a CC.

literallyroyon OpenCode launches higher tier for Go Plan

Still not usable in vscode and Deepseek because the lead dev decided to require an arbitrary opencode specific header?

literallyroyon Plan mode is dead

I’m curious if anyone has used automations for any kind of regular refactoring and cleanup tasks? Most agent guis support it.

literallyroyon Disney+ and Hulu raise prices by up to 13 percent after doubling profits

You can’t just watch it through Apple TV though can you? Aren’t lots of shows only through certain services and it just links you there?

literallyroyon LG Says We're Fake News [video]

Why not reset it

literallyroyon Shattered Pixel Dungeon v4.0.0

I like games but don’t usually see them posted nor upvoted on HN, why this one?

literallyroyon Reddit saves your keystrokes in text boxes

Is it a RUM analytics/debugging tool like those from Datadog and Sentry (potentially behind a proxy)?

literallyroyon We built our house for LAN parties (2024)

Sounds like preference. I think it looks beautiful personally.

literallyroyon We built our house for LAN parties (2024)

It’s very jarring to see such a different reaction than my own to this post. Each time it comes up (was posted in a friend discord as well recently) I’m in awe and love the explanations.

Some folks don’t want others to be happy. I had someone in my life recently complain that someone they met was too happy and thus toxic and ignorant of the world’s atrocities.

Keep smiling at have a good day :)

literallyroyon Tether: iMessage, SMS, etc. on Linux

I saw someone smile at the park the other day, do you think you could talk to them for me?

literallyroyon RAG Is Simpler Than You Think

Why pretend? You mean your draft was the meat of the article and you had an LLM make it an article (sentences rather than bullet points?)

This is absolutely not a small draft review or edit.

literallyroyon AI didn't erase the junior engineer's value, it increased it it

Making changes to someone else’s PR (other than extremely trivial ones) feels like they don’t have much ownership. People often have a reason for doing things the way they did and skipping over them seems like a mistake.

literallyroyon DeepSeek V4 Flash at 278 tok/s, full precision, no quantization

I don’t see RunInfra as a provider on OpenRouter. Why not?

literallyroyon DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813

> i don't get the opencode hate, i like it

When the company I work for was evaluating it, there were multiple rough points. Their terms and conditions allowed training on prompts, the default behavior was to route prompts to their servers for conversation summary/labeling. One of their lead maintainers is also super toxic on many issues.

Sorry this is all baseless with no links, I’m on my phone and locating those issues again isn’t something I have time for.

It’s a good tool I just don’t like the privacy policies nor maintainers attitudes.

literallyroyon DeepSeek V4 Flash 0731

Ah thanks. That looks like 10x cost on cache reads vs Deepseek as the provider: https://openrouter.ai/deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-0731#provid...

literallyroyon DeepSeek V4 Flash 0731

Is this pricing from Deepseek with training on usage?

literallyroyon 'Crush this lady': how eBay harassment campaign led to $56M payout

Only unintentionally. I know for some unnamed companies any calls containing executives, the Zoom AI transcripts cannot be enabled.
