Passkeys were invented by security engineers with zero understanding of the consumer brain.

... of the human brain.

he entire premise that Meta is driving this with $2B of lobbying is an AI hallucination.

I guess the $2B is hallucination. But it makes sense for them to do the "think of the children" lobby.

It doesn't matter what they spent excatly but it's in their direct interest to raise legal moats for competitors. Kind of like what Allegedly Open AI tried with the "AI will kill us all" threats.

is basically a surefire way to find results written by genuine humans

Was a surefire way?

all new technologies online were driven by the porn industry

Rule 34: there is already tons of AI porn online :)

What I wonder is what will Anthropic come up with on the PR front next.

What about my desktop? Will it detect what models a desktop can run?

But will Nintendo and the like be able to retain pricing for much longer? Of course they have better contracts but for how long?

Mostly I'd say their downfall was that they encouraged copypasta material and actively discouraged any kind of behaviour that would have built a community.

I actually really like the term content creator, because it removes the artificial boundaries that come with being a writer, photographer, filmmaker, etc. and just lets you make stuff. The medium doesn't matter if you're a content creator, to a large extent.

The alternative is "art"

That's how you read the term. Unfortunately, for most of your potential viewers, "content" is "art" but commissioned by the ton, like beef.

It's say Anthropic, Allegedly OpenAI...

Just because SDL is portable it doesn't mean MS is willing to use that portability :)

Java edition has never been playable on anything other than Windows, Mac, and Linux

That IS cross platform. One, two, three platforms. Count them.

I honestly went and read those release notes just to check if they're using this transition as an excuse to make the game less cross platform.

SDL3 has a whole software renderer

Does this mean SDL3 has a built in 3d renderer or it's the modern meaning where anything is a serverless renderer or something like that?

So does that make Claude Code any better?

Can you select text with shift + arrow keys now in the command line client? :)

Oh. I looked it up. Not my cup of tea but it looks like 15 million people liked it.

Now the question is, will they resist the temptation for cancerous "growth" now that they made some money?

And the sad thing is, I would have never heard about it if not for this HN discussion. I simply do not check online only games because I expect IAP fests.

Because the person who asked the question has accepted the first answer that looked decent enough and moved on.

Usually the most superficial, not that it's always a bad thing.

Oh, also on SO there's this kind of exchange:

Q: "I want to do X because of this and that - or because I simply fucking want to".

A: You should never do X, do Y or Z instead.

making it inclusive to the long-time users on the site, but exclusive to the newbie participants

I used to look for questions to answer on my morning coffee. Then two things happened:

1. Rep chasers that rushed to answer anything with a copy/pasta from manuals (or at best semi related tutorials) showed up so there was no point or time in typing a complex answer.

2. Those long time users started downmodding "teach the man how to fish" answers and favoring "here's stuff ready to copy/paste" answers.

This was long before LLMs.

Gaming as a whole is dead for me

There are millions of indies out there. Some are worth the time. It's a bit of a problem to figure out which though.

Haven't played online multiplayer games since ~2013

I don't think there are any non predatory online multiplayer games since 2013 :)

And there are many online multiplayer games that would have been really good as single player.

It is nice to be able to click

You said click. This happens without clicking anything.

You can pretend to be any vid:pid with usb gadget mode. For example with a raspberry pi zero something.

But you can't pretend to be any vendors id, only the ones with vulnerabilities. And the drivers or spyware will be downloaded by windows from the vendor's site, not from your peripheral.

But yes, usb device identifier is done through software/firmware.

I bought a Citizen dumbwatch with the solar panel dial.

I've never had to charge it. Only thing I do is keep it in the open with the dial facing up when I'm not wearing it.

Looks like they set up a LLM to estimate billing?

Thats innovation. "innovation" is the usual justification of companies for their consumer hostile moves.

and am noticing a speedup in areas I was already familiar with, and a quicker introduction to new ones.

Only problem is that, like a LLM, you don't retain anything.

Hobby projects may become a lot more important now because if you do them without LLMs you may retain a brain cell or two.

Another geek darling on the path to a dangerous monopoly?

Hello Cloudflare btw.

I have a much easier time to fall asleep that way

Unless the book is really good :)

Trademarks are first intended to protect consumers

Huh? I thought they're intended to protect "innovation".

everyone already knows what OpenAI is

If it has Open in the name it's something to do with open source and "AI" right? :)
