I've always wondered if this could be used to create 3d holograms.

How does this deal with rain?

Interesting theory. The Claude Code instance says it's using this user agent based on the guidelines in the EDGAR Fair Access Policy: https://www.sec.gov/search-filings/edgar-search-assistance/a...

...which indeed requests that bots supply `User-Agent: Sample Company Name AdminContact@<sample company domain>.com`.

So in this case, the site just asked nicely and Claude Code complied. Note that this wouldn't have worked for Claude Chat, which the author was testing, because the `web_fetch` tool cannot set the User-Agent or other headers.

I could see it right there in the tool call:

  Bash(curl -A "<my name> <my email>" "sec.gov...")

Claude code decided to just put my name and email in the User-Agent when scraping docs from the SEC. No clever prompting required.

It’s not a terrible idea really, but I wish it would’ve asked me first.

> ultrasound is not CT

They're using "CT" in its literal sense: tomography*, using computers. In this case, ultrasound is the penetrating wave rather than x-ray. It is of course a very different thing than what the medical world knows as "CT" today.

The money still comes from somewhere. In this case, those index funds will be forced to trim holdings of other companies. So it's cannibalizing other parts of the stock market.

There are several errors here. When the eye ages, the lens stiffens, effectively decreasing the focal range. For nearsightdness, Lasik alters the cornea and moves the relaxed focal distance outward. It's possible that a nearsighted person wouldn't need reading glasses even as their focal range decreases, but would after Lasik.

I don't disagree about TP-Link's security reputation. But I think they're an independent Chinese company, not a Cisco brand.

I'll upgrade my M1 MBA when they do. I remember my Intel MBP running noticeably hotter when plugged in on one side vs the other, so maybe it's trickier than it seems.

Mostly I'm worried about bit rot, i.e. breaking changes in subsequent iOS updates. But your point is valid, I'll try Nintype again. It's extremely quirky and opinionated in an entertaining way.

iOS supports third party keyboards. Surely anybody this bothered by it should investigate those and pick a better option?

There was an absolutely mind-blowing keyboard which supported multi-finger swiping called Nintype, but development on it has stopped.

Who is Avira and how'd they get OpenAI to ship their browser with 3 of their extensions preinstalled with full permissions?

Contactless Bitcoin lightning payments. Best of both worlds.

The article discusses only the peaceful uses. But tritium must also be constantly replenished in the h-bomb arsenal due to its half life of ~12 years.

Hmm, why don't they make iodized flaky salt?

If you're as dumb as me and try to actually play this, note that the "Snake speed" value is inverted.

Yes. Or visit TikTok.com in the browser, even if their region is set to US.

Drive a Toyota Mirai while you can–this might be the only time in history to experience the hilarious quirks of a hydrogen car. Including the "dump h2o" button, which causes the car to, um, eject its h2o waste on command. Oh and if you're in San Francisco, take a ride on the free hydrogen powered ferry "Sea Change" (its waste comes out of the drinking fountain).

Calling these links 'magic' is an insult to magicians who spent years mastering actual sorcery. We're just passing around URL-encoded tokens.

I wonder if there's any useful heavy equipment aboard the ISS that could be transferred to the Axiom prior to separation and thus salvaged. It'd have to be stuff the ISS could do without for the remaining couple years of its life.

One thing I'd like to see tested: I have a theory that reusable plastic containers leach out most of their chemicals early in their life, so the amount imparted to any food diminishes with each use. Under this theory, I save and reuse old plastic containers for a long time, and avoid new ones (especially single use). Could this be true, or misguided?
