> to DDOS sites the owner doesn't agree with

to DDOS one website, which is doxxing the owner. Not that it makes it good idea, but it's a little more understandable.

> If you live in Europe, this restriction may be considered "gatekeeping" and exempted by the Digital Markets Act.

That's not how the DMA works at all, there is no concept of gatekeeping practices. Instead, the EU Commission designates companies that act as gatekeeper for some services (current list here: https://digital-markets-act.ec.europa.eu/gatekeepers-portal_...) which then puts constraints on what they do.

Paris' subway and local train lines each have a Twitter account, and they are the only reliable source of information regarding outages. Phone apps (at least three official ones with different data sources!) and websites can be outdated. Displays in station too (though less often), have outages of their own, and (rarely) even incorrect updates.

Axios already used this style long before LLMs were a thing.

https://web.archive.org/web/20170609214514/https://www.axios... has two instances on the front page, more if you click on any of the articles.

This seems hard to believe, but the author already tooted about it (https://mamot.fr/@ploum/117016623130281141) so he may be serious

And being one of the few who use them will be considered aggravating factor in unrelated lawsuits. This already happened once even though it's not illegal: https://www.laquadrature.net/en/2023/06/05/criminalization-o...

The driver could run in a VM and only display applications from that VM or a subset of VMs.

> There's no asymmetry at all: you're just adding a fixed cost to each reward, for both users and abusers.

There is: users solve the PoW once, scrappers solve it every time they rotate IP addresses. Some of them change their IP address on every request, so they keep solving the PoW over and over.

No, it's not just about cycle counting.

Worst-case O(n-k) complexity in general implies worst-case O(1) complexity for the set of cases where k=n-<constant>. There are still multiple cases, just a subset of those that don't include worst of the general case.

If you enjoyed the industry part, you may find https://prosperousuniverse.com/ even better than Eve.

ICANN can't suspend second-level domains, this is up to the owner of .org (the Public Interest Registry) or the registrar of the particular domain (Gandi).

It's a client-side paywall so most people with ad blockers don't even noticed there is one.

From the article:

> The AFL’s refusal to allow Boyle a choice is not unlawful. Employers in Australia can install software on the equipment they own, are exempt from privacy law when handling employee records

It worked for me (from two French IP addresses in different ASs) for two or three weeks since people started talking about. Now it's gone too.

Anecdata: a coworker found a single bit flip corruption in a file he wrote in his computer. He ran memtest86 on his memory, and which found one of the two sticks was defective. The computer otherwise ran perfectly fine for years; and we would have never noticed if the file format didn't have built-in checksums.

It will be legal to share in some decades. Not that Amazon will bother, though.

Isn't it because they have customers who will use as many tokens as they can? With a flat rate, they will run Gas Town continuously while paying as much as the occasional user.

Interesting to see that peak hours are work hours in China, night in the US and Europe, and also morning in Europe. So Deepseek's customers are mostly domestic.

Yes, as long as their development environment is isolated and they can't push to prod without a review.

It's okay-ish for Rust because you only need the curl|bash for Rustup, which is meant as a development environment. On production you can, for example, use APT to download it from Debian.

The Reddit post you linked to was hallucinated by Claude, see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47659552

Their website (now offline) also added this page since I posted that comment: https://web.archive.org/web/20260411112604/https://tboteproj... where they claim their website is under "surveillance" because it got a few thousand requests from Google Cloud et al, most of them to a single page. This shows how low their standards are.

And they're using a temporary redirect (HTTP 302) so browsers won't automatically redirect users when this happens.

abuse@ contacts never send responses (though some send acknowledgements) because they don't want to give any details about their abuse process.

Dumping the database won't stop the scrappers because humans running the scrappers are not even aware Gentoo exists. They're just scrapping every website their bots find.

It's indeed written by Claude, like most of the website: https://github.com/jdevalk/specification.website/commit/99b1...

From the README:

> The name is borrowed from the Wallfacers of Liu Cixin's The Dark Forest — people entrusted with plans too sprawling for anyone else to follow.

Which misunderstands the book. The point of Wallfacers is that they cannot share their plan with anyone because the enemy is spying on them at all times.

> All advisories in this repo seem AI generated when testing them with Gptzero

I pasted this blog post from "Analysis Matrix" to the end in Gptzero, and it also says the blog post was AI-generated (71% chance of AI, 29% chance of AI-Human mix).

And Github doesn't let us see stargazers anymore, so we can't tell which repos bought stars.

There's no time to write a readme after writing 48k lines in less than two days (not including "Initial commit from create-turbo", "first commit", and "initial commit")

> I recall some time in 2016 when they were regex replacing variable names in peoples repositories and pestering them if they didn’t accept the request.

Do you have more details about that?
