I suspect it's coal lobby sponsoring "green" iniviatives. Then the "green" initiatives sponsored by coal are anti-nuclear.

Why did you pay Aphyr to find all these holes in ParticleDB? Didn't you know about them before? I wish you the best, but this doesn't sound reassuring.

Yes it is a pain. But the whole thing is like two pages, so I^H my LLM just reads it. I used to read it. It was ok readable (and I'm not very good at CSS).

I don't use Claude but this is the first time I hear someone say it's combative. People usually joke about it being too sycophantic.

That's a problem with everything (apart from firearms perhaps). I think backyard gold is a solid idea, just make sure no one's watching you dig.

The whole idea behind Bitcoin is that you can be your own bank. Binance is just an exchange. You cannot be JP Morgan Chase.

I'm pretty sure I'd hate Tailwind, but please leave OKLCH alone. It is actually ok (as opposed to RGB and HSL which very much aren't ok).

> Does anyone use/like touch on their windows (linux?) laptops?

Sometimes I use it in Linux. Sometimes it makes my system freeze, requiring a hard restart. Perhaps it would be wise to disable it in BIOS.

It is a tragedy that 60+ people died. Laughs can be a coping mechanism.

> Distasteful and totally crass.

That's culture-dependent. In some cultures it's not unusual to joke about tragedies (even when they are one's own).

> I compared to a 10-year old CNN and to my surprise found that this was superior.

I'm surprised he's surprised.

> A small, old, specialised network using an outdated architecture recognises skin lesions far better than two frontier LLMs.

Yes of course. A 30m params Katago network with one playout is superhuman in playing go, while frontier LLMs have over 10,000 times more parameters and aren't any good at playing go. They're good at other things (such as helping you create a network that's good at playing go).

This is why I read https://hckrnews.com/ top 20 - things like this stick there. Also feeds me less noise and requires less F5 than the ever-changing HN homepage :)

> Have a look at your log file

Surely it doesn't take a very sophisticated attacker to clean up after themselves at least a little bit?

Is it so bad? Have you measured the number of attacks?

> So without the HN discussion I wouldn't have found enough people pointing at possible mitigations and I would have lost a server to this

I run a tiny server. I like this server a lot. I only patched an hour after the Debian package was ready and didn't think about it again. Do you mean to imply there's a real chance my little server has been compromised?

[Edit:] My server is quite public too. It hosts four SLDs and many subdomains and receives both human and bot traffic. Only one or two subdomains use PHP, but a reasonable attacker surely tries all of them.
