All these claude issues are full of bots, sometimes bots replying to themselves and getting confused. It's impossible to tell what is a real issue and what is hallucination. I'm surprised anthropic even bothers to read them. In th

I think IETF will have to restrict the submission process (somehow), or just hide unreviewed drafts from their domain entirely. The slop submissions using "IETF Draft" as a trick to gain legitimacy are getting more and more freque

I have a coworker who's clearly following this guide. So exhausting.

Vercel runtime must be able to access the values (so customer's apps can use them). But nobody else should ever be able to. This is the typical amateur hour security but on the other hand, who was naive enough to expect any better from

If they had SSO sign in to their admin panel (trusted device checks notwithstanding) the oauth access would be useless. Vercel is understandably trying to shift all the blame on the third party but the fact their admin panel can be accessed

I don't know why you are downvoted. The article is AI blogspam, it doesn't have any more factual information than eg https://www.darkreading.com/application-security/vercel-empl... and is full of empty LLMism

Why use AI generated pictures for the letters? Lot of the site wording is clearly AI too, but the pictures of final product are the most important aspect. I'm genuinely asking, since it just makes the site look untrustworthy. The only

The site claims to be by cloudflare (didn't find a reverse link to confirm), so maybe they use their own little backdoor.

Anyone who relies on IP filtering for security deserves to have it broken. Change my mind.

These people give the slopmachine credentials for their own github account? I know I should not be surprised at this point, yet they keep reaching new lows.

They will never see a single cent from that, AA will continue to rotate domains and nothing was accomplished, except for spotify's legal team which earned easy money arguing against empty chair in court. BTW, you can donate and get fas

That makes sense. They have definitely made the hobby a lot more approachable.

Long time fan of atomic14, thanks for all your videos! It's interesting perspective and I'm happy to hear it works well for you.

Tangential but since it's in the title... pcbway and jlcpcb sponsorships, especially on hobby electronics YT videos, are quite interesting case. On one hand they seem redundant at this point. Both companies are well known to the target

Reasonable. I wish there was a common convention for logical grouping like we have in math when disambiguating operator precedence with parenthesis, but those are already taken for asides in regular prose. Maybe curly braces?

I'm guessing bambu implementation returns the server socket's listen address, and they bind to 0.0.0.0. (Typography pet peeve, how do I disambiguate that dot?) What's surprising is how this got shipped. Do the devs use some o

Great article, I've been saying something similar (much less eloquently) at work for months and will reference this one next time it comes up. Quite often I see inexperienced engineers trying to ship the dumbest stuff. Back before LLM

Hmm I'm not sure how to interpret that page but it looks like you are right, I'll edit my comment. I was told by GCP PMs that is how the GCP/tsystems setup is structured (see sibling comment) and that it mirrored AWS setup, b

I don't know about AWS but I dealt with some (small / tangential) aspects of the GCP setup: https://www.t-systems.com/dk/en/sovereign-cloud/solutions/so... It is completely separate. There isn&

Edit: Looks like the below is not true. However, such setup is technically possible and if they were serious about making it truly isolated from US influence, it can be done. Original comment: No it's not owned by AWS. It's a sepa

No, they-are-not-actually-contamination. Some studies might have inaccurate numbers due to contamination. That's all. Important to correct for, but doesn't invalidate the whole microplastics concern.

I actually think it's ripe for an extra season because the stuff that happened in last few years is comedy goldmine.

It's actually hilariously bad. If you go to the last (2356th!) page, you will see eight posts from 2023 and 2024, mostly few months apart. (But even none of those are good) Then in 2025 @nawazdhandala starts going wild with 22 articles

I think that account should be banned. Going further, the whole oneuptime.com domain should probably be blacklisted.

I'm guessing there is a bit of a feedback loop now since people try this, search for the slopsite and click it, boosting it higher. For me it was top result (in incognito, not personalized). Two things you can do: - Navigate back and o
