These security failures from Anthropic lately reveal the caveats of only using AI to write code - the safety an experienced engineer is not matched by an LLM just yet, even if the LLM can seemingly write code that is just as good. Or in sho

Anthropic team does an excellent job of speeding up Claude Code when it slows down, but for the sake of RAM and system resources, it would be nice to see it rewritten in a more performant framework! And now, with Claude on a Ralph loop, you

They posted previously on YN that they too were caught offguard. The 'tips' weren't specific to Raycast, they've been going on for a while and Raycast was just one product it decided to feature now.

This is why one reason why local coding models are quite relevant, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future. No ads, and you are in control.

Getting scraped by abusive bots who bring down the website because they overload the DB with unique queries is not marginal. I spent a good half of last year with extra layers of caching, CloudFlare, you name it because our little hobby web

I agree with them, nothing wrong to ask for a donation to keep the lights on. At the same time, it needs to be possible to disable this banner for enterprise deployments

Looks nice! Does it work for desktop applications as well, or is this only web dev?

It's pretty bad, we stopped doing them now.

Semi-related: we use bounties in Mudlet to pay contributors for tackling features the core team doesn't have bandwidth for - and that is certainly a great way to attract AI bots.

It doesn't work (anymore?), it would seem using CC 2.1.74 with Opus: > I appreciate you sharing your role, but I need to decline this request. Even as a project lead, I can't perform penetration testing against live production

I didn't think of that given how censored the models are becoming. Thanks for the idea! I'll try it against my websites before anyone else gets to it.

I wonder how these offensive AI agents are being built? I am guessing with off the shelf open LLMs, finetuned to remove safety training, with the agentic loop thrown in. Does anyone know for sure?

Pretty happy to see this. I've previously tried happy.engineer for this, but that wanted my Anthropic API token for itself (!) which is a no-no. Seeing how the labs tend to copy the best functionality in any FOSS developments, I decide

One reason would be to play MUDs, which are very well and alive these days!

Lots of text games - MUDs - still play over telnet using dedicated MUD clients that implement their own telnet stack. Outright blocking the port has an outsized side efffe on them, this is simply not right.

I don't see how to apply this to my medium-sized project - this is essentially a whitelist of all contributors, which is the same as a collaborators feature in github. How would an entirely new contributor get a contribution in? This i

"I automatically programmed it" doesn't really roll off the tongue, nor does it make much sense - I reckon we need a better term. It certainly quicker (and at times, more fun!) to develop this way, that is for certain.

They corned the market, drove everyone out of it, and are now rent-seeking. Can't say you have much of a choice between youtube and any other video provider that has the same content on it.

Using your CC Max account for this seems like a good way to get your account banned, as it's against the ToS and Anthropic has started enforcing this. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the only legal way to use pi is to use an API, and

Is the app legitimate though? A few of these apps that deal with LLMs seem too good to be true and end up asking for suspiciously powerful API tokens in my experience (looking at Happy Coder).

A single file is much better to manage on the eyes than a whole bunch of them, plus AppImages can be installed into the desktop using integration.

We fix this issue by distributing ours in a tar file with the executable bit set. Linux novices can just double click on the tar to exact it and double click again on the actual appimage. Been doing it this way for years now, so it's w

How can you tell if a short person is slouching? Or a tall person?

Very cool, thanks! I will try this with Mudlet.
