I enjoyed this game a lot. I believe I got to near the end, but unfortunately got stuck, and now returning to the game would require relearning all the mechanics.

I guess the low pricing was so DeepSeek could gather training material. The provider on OpenRouter indicates that data can be retained.

You might like IncusOS. I found some rough edges but it has some very nice properties like the OS being immutable, and having no shell.

Is this not an apples-and-pears comparison? DeepMind is a research lab, not an LLM-pilled money furnace.

>You can see what others are doing even if you don't have accounts on their sites Not practically. That works up to a number like three. Are you really going to manually poll every account you care about?

Yes, I think many people use GitHub just for code storage, and that's fine. I casually browse GitHub sometimes in the same way I do HN. I follow friends and colleagues and through the feed see what they're building and starring. I

Ramen in London is atrocious, not only is it priced as a luxury food (ramen is supposed to be fast and cheap), it's tasteless and often lukewarm. I went on holiday to Spain and found they have a lot of pretty decent Japanese restaurant

Running a git forge is easy, I find the social coding/network effect the stickiest part of GitHub. I want my code to be discoverable, and I want to discover others' code. I wanted to leave GitHub but I'm still stuck there. Wh

I never understood why being able to “play the game” is considered a positive signal. Getting a degree is the safe path, it doesn’t require any risk taking, and not much initiative. It’s about having the money (or going into debt for most p

Me neither. Might take the expiry and “use within” on the bottle a bit more seriously now.

Forcing research people to work on products seems like a reliable way to make them leave.

Is that so? I feel like I’m seeing more Python and TypeScript than ever, especially when it comes to AI tooling, which is disappointing. I can’t fathom why anybody would want to continue working with dynamically typed languages when they ca

Reading some of what Liang Wenfeng said on the investor call a few days ago gave me hope for humanity. I really want to believe AI is going to be a tool for good, not going to just enrich a few billionaires again.

Most scrapers are unsophisticated, this is why Anubis "works." For this same reason, basic fingerprinting already employed by Cloudflare et al would have the same efficacy.

The hashing has nothing to do with it. It's just an arbitrary hoop for clients to jump through that filters out the bots that haven't implemented that hoop. So why not just use the client's fingerprint and call it a day? Use

The cost is nothing. The browser implementation is too slow, mobile devices are too slow, and hash algorithms with hardware acceleration are too fast. You can’t balance these three constraints in a way that only keeps out the bad guys. The

I think you missed the point. How do you reliably identify and prove vibe coding? You accuse them of vibe coding, they say no I wrote it by hand. Or they say no, I only used a little bit of AI. At what point is it vibe coding? Is there goin

I'm tired of SlopHub but at the same time how do you realistically ban vibe coding? This will cause a bunch of infighting with people accusing each other.

Surveillance? Somewhat. HR culture? Absolutely.

My eyes were about to roll back in my head expecting to read about another vibe-rewrite, but I was pleasantly surprised. So glad real engineering still exists, this sounds really exciting.

Not to minimise the author’s struggle but it sounds like they have relatively minor qualms about the tone of AI text. There are many people, myself included, questioning if this career is still for them. Giving up on writing code as a hobby

Bit late for all of that, we already handed corporations the largest set of training data they could possibly ask for, in the form of open source, for free. They already smashed the window and took everything on display.
