Unfortunately, this is the truth.

I want surveillance cameras everywhere except my home (We have American surveillance at home :D ).

I don't mind surveillance + Dystopian Sci-fi movie like automatic action.

6000 childrens were raped in just first 3 months of 2026 in Bangladesh. This is just one example how bad the situation is.

AI traffic cameras proved, how civilized we can be, with proper treatment.

Bangladesh is one of the best example of it.

People usually don't want to follow traffic laws on road. Now that we have AI camera recording and AI fine system, people try their best to follow traffic laws. We are becoming Japan following traffic laws in certain areas.

Police usually were scared to fine million dollars cars (because the car owner might be part of something higher power and they could lose their job). Now they gossip on roadside and let AI do it's job.

To HN people surveillance is scarry. But to us, surveillance is blessings.

I wish there were CLI preview command when making changes in Cloudflare.

I have few domains on Cloudflare and when making some changes, I wish there were a way to apply the same changes to multiple domains for consistency.

CLI preview for UI action will make it possible.

It's just lazy engineering. They get assigned a task, they must implement it or fix it to keep their job. Proper implantation takes more knowledge, more research and more brain pressure.

AI could play a big rule here. Husky (git hook) but AI. It will score lazy engineering. You lazy implement enough times, you loose your job.

Not AI but perfect example is Cloudflare. They have implemented public suffix list (to check if a domain is valid) 10 different times in 10 different ways. In one place, they have even embedded the list in frontend (pages custom domain). You report issues, they fix that one service, their own stuff isn't even aware that it exists in other places.
