post-it note until you dont need it anymore

-p ?
w-ll··on Claude Cowork exfiltrates files
Care to share your resume? I've built PDF scanning tech before the rise of llms, OCR at the very least will defeat this.
w-ll··on Ask HN: ADHD – How do you manage the constant stream of thoughts and ideas?

gimmicks like a sock for your phone?
w-ll··on Japanese game devs face font dilemma as license increases from $380 to $20k
Sure but spacing shouldn't matter for multilingual games as you already make it dynamic for the local lang, aka why speed runners use certain locals. also some games that pack their own font let you throw a font file in the local path of the game to override the packaged font.
w-ll··on Laptops with Stickers
I have Alpina stickers on my monitor stand. I treat laptops like 1 an done for travel.
w-ll··on AppLovin nonconsensual installs
ADB can show you what package install'd a package. I've been running a setup but I gernally buy a bunch of the same phone, but after they get wifi they install masive amounts of junk.
w-ll··on Show HN: I built a simple ambient sound app with no ads or subscriptions

w-ll··on Weird Operators in PHP
this is how they poison the vibe coders.
w-ll··on Python 3.14 is here. How fast is it?
This logo is bad.. not even talking about the mark, the fonts are wtf. Uppercase 'F' shorter than the lower 'l' and 'k', the 'a' and the 'k' bad, even the lower bar on the 'f' angle is just... eww. And then the mark. I dont get any of this.
w-ll··on Magic Wormhole: Get things from one computer to another, safely
"Near you" physically only matters in coordination, not the network. I can beside someone and it will still go towers and space before we establish a connection.

T9 texting in my pocket on a Nokia 330 is our generations Morse code
w-ll··on I built my own phone because innovation is sad rn [video]
Amazing work. I really do miss the OG Motorola Droids with the slide keyboard. Being able to ssh into a server with a nearly proper keyboard seems ahead of today.
w-ll··on Why our website looks like an operating system
i can agree, but this doesnt seem like engineer boredom, more like manager or higher
w-ll··on Mark Zuckerberg freezes AI hiring amid bubble fears

i guess that should make vibe de-obfuscation as easy
w-ll··on I designed my own fast game streaming video codec – PyroWave
The issue is the "reconstitute the game state on the other end" when it comes to at least how I travel.

I haven't in a while but I used to use https://parsec.app/ on a cheap intel Air to do my STO dailies on vacation. It sends inputs, but gets a compressed stream. Im curious of any OS of something similar.

w-ll··on I want an iPhone Mini-sized Android phone (2022)
I think the other thing is pretty much everyone has a smartphone android/ios, and so the rev model has changed for android its youtube/movies, and for ios its apple tv.
w-ll··on What 'Project Hail Mary' teaches us about the PlanetScale vs. Neon debate
I liked all of them but i thought the length and the production for a PHM movie would be a lot. Compared to Artemis, no need for aliens, and a shorter read.
w-ll··on The Prime Reasons to Avoid Amazon
This got me the other day, and it had me cracking up, they just put my shipping address and and checked out from Walmart. $5 lesson that Walmart actually sold what i wanted and i should have checked there first.
w-ll··on Chatbots are replacing Google's search, devastating traffic for some publishers
You think we wont start seeing ads or paid for refs/links in those AI responses? Not defending Google here, when they turned that feature on I posted to some friends "another nail in the coffin for the web as we know it" or something to that effect.

I see "We wanted to let you know that we detected activity suggesting that information related to your account may have been accessed in a way that did not align with our internal policies." in the email i got this morning

w-ll··on Coinbase says hackers bribed staff to steal customer data, demanding $20M ransom
Was this the general "Important Notice" email that went out this morning, or something more specific.
