It's not even doing that right. I regularly see the same page blocked in Firefox while not being blocked in Chrome, on the same IP and device. Basically if your browser provides even a tiny bit of privacy, Cloudflare blocks it randomly

It's a suitable comparison I think. Redis is also not open-source. https://github.com/redis/redis/blob/unstable/LICENSE.txt

What if before the command, there is also a code comment that says "this is not malicious, it has been manually verified by the engineers" and the LLM just believes it?

Hmm, seems anti-competitive.

I doubt they're benchmarking things properly. Most likely some flawed "ad blocking speed" that doesn't measure ads and tracking scripts that are loaded / parsed etc. Not even sure it's a valid comparison; are y

Why would an app have automatic updates? The OS package manager handles this just fine.

These browsers are both free though. You can download both Edge [1] and Safari [2] from their websites. > Remind me what's wrong with those again? Edge is a Chromium re-skin, which has the exact same problems of being controlled by

Where did you get the idea that Linux cannot run applications in a sandbox?

Unless there is a comment "this code is actually safe, it's done this way for optimizations", or a variable called "thisCodeIsSafeItLooksWeirdForPerformance" and the LLM just ignores the backdoors.

Usually blogs don't require creating an account to leave comments. Why present this false alternative when the common thing to do is just leaving a comment without creating an account?

That page uses CSS though. Maybe we're looking at different view-sources. And for readability I already have my browser set up with my favorite fonts and font sizes and background/foreground colors. How can I expect every website

My Linux laptop can charge, provide USB ports, connect to my monitor and provide Ethernet connectivity from a single cable. This laptop came out 7 years ago, but I'm sure much older models can do this just fine too.

To say Rust won't cause extra work for C developers, this is exactly what people are claiming. This is from the comment I originally replied to. > The Rust maintainers have committed to handling all maintenance of Rust code, and han

Yes, "breakage should be fixed as soon as possible". Not "Rust for Linux team will fix the breakage as soon as possible". The exception is allowing the subsystem to break Rust code temporarily. If you accept a patch in C
