If I want to run a piece of software on my phone, I shouldn't need to go ask google whether they're cool with it

Most handset manufacturers are like this, don't think it's specific to samsung

It only gives a pretty rough estimation, not a street address. I don't think many self-hosters have run into issue w/ this.

This comment generated a lot of activity. It's very interesting watching the vote count of it move with the daylight (it went down during night in US/day in EU, and went back up when the US woke back up)

US can probably use their soft power to influence them not to do that. Also would imagine the US gov could also set up some more censorship resistant access methods.

Yeah there's way too many cool-sounding HN posts that are just blogs saying "and then Claude did X, then Claude did Y" and contain no original thought

iirc Graphene is in talks with an unnamed HW vendor to make a grapheneos specific phone. They refer to the vendor as someone who makes phones and you've likely heard of, but haven't given any more info otherwise.

I think it benefits the overall ecosystem for them to experiment so other languages can take what works

GitHub/Microsoft would likely prefer that you allow AI contributors and wouldn't want to provide a signal to help filter them out

You don't know how involved it was. I would imagine it helped debug some tools that they used to create it. Getting it to actually end to end produce a more capable model without any human help absolutely is that complicated.

OK, so Anthropic's AI built a C compiler. That don't impress me much(theregister.com)

> GPT‑5.3‑Codex helps debug its own training Doesn't this support the author's point? It still required humans.

I used to think the android keyboard(s) were terrible when I switched over to iOS, but now after switching back to a android, it feels leagues ahead of iOS 26's kb

It would also be quite cool if it could read your emails and notify you when you get and email about an OA or an interview or something. Have had a couple of those emails slip through the cracks previously. Would also make the part of manua

These all sound like really useful features. Since it tracks which resume you sent, does it give you some insight into which variations are the best performers?

This does seem like an interesting idea. I'd wonder what the evaluation looks like? Does it just look at code quality? Or does it also incorporate some amount of apparent skill shown w/ prompting/managing an agent?

I've found that the effort required to get a good outcome is roughly equal to the effort of doing it myself. If I do it myself, I get the added bonus of actually understanding what the code is doing, which makes debugging any issues do

It's really not as integral as you make it sound. If I make one PR on a widely used open source tool with a small fix, is most software development augmented by me?

I believe the EUV Light Source you're referring to is made by ASML in San Diego. So ASML has the IP/knowledge to stand this production up elsewhere.

Also, it'd light a bunch of soft power the US has through these tech companies on fire.
