either the registry is compromised or someone at anthropic got compromised (or did it on purpose to steal crypto). the line in the cursor disclosure about the extension not being developed by anthropic is more confusing than clarifying. amateur hour for these massive corps

They really need to show some evidence for this! Just this suggestion means I won't ever use it again

Ok so it's "AI free". But why? It doesn't justify the decision but just assumes you will understand the reasoning. I have to say: I don't. For example they are pinning binutils, gcc, and gdb to the last version they know does not have LLM generated code. I assume this means they will not be able to accept any upstream patches, but instead have to take over maintenance of those packages themselves for the forseeable future, effectively meaning development on those will stop for the purposes of AlpineBSD. Seems stupid, to me.

the rumors were about a supposed Macbook Ultra that would have a screen like the ipad pros. Still to come (or not)

right: either it’s so hard to exploit that $1,000 isn’t enough to risk “giving away” your exploit chain or actual exploitation of this bug is impractical, either way the CVEpocalypse is overblown

The author of the piece claims playing to the click is not gridification, and I agree. Even with a click track to keep you on beat, there will still be a natural push and pull of the rhythm.

this is written so terribly i could barely read it. stop using ai to write, AI CAN'T WRITE. it can write code, it can't write a blog post

secret encryption is always a bit of a conundrum for a running cloud system. the secret needs to be plaintext when you use it, so you have to decrypt at least on every deploy. but that means the keys have to be ready at hand, no passphrase, somewhere an automated system can get them. that makes it very hard to actually protect them from someone with full access

like the competent programmers that built php or?

github has basically become a joke at this point. everyone engineering org that i know of is at least asking themselves if there's a migration path off there if they're not in the process of building one. Every slack has a custom emoji of github on fire. Github is so joever

FDA approval of the first GLP-1 agonist was in 2005 and many diabetics have been taking these drugs for close to 20 years, so we have a pretty good picture of what long term side effects are: mostly GI symptoms, and you can have problems with muscle loss and bone weakening if you lose a ton of wieght. otherwise they are well tolerated.

i burn through a $200 claude and $200 codex plan every week. opus 5.5 is not "step change" it's just a bit better, and the benchmarks show this. Honestly with my workflow I cannot really tell the difference between the top models, they're all pretty much the same in capability, just a bit different. You can build software with all of them, and with all of them you have to validate the change thoroughly to not ship stupid bugs
