News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Can we stop normalising that interesting stuff nowadays is always slop?
How very inspiring and full of character in the age of worthless slop

I'd say that this has already been at least partially addressed with asahi linux

"Illegally extracted" might be a strong phrase. All you need to do is open the website in a browser

Was it ever open source? Thr github repo doesn't contain any sources...

I'm positively surprised that their tool is not yet another LLM wrapper.

The quality of research (and by extent HN submissions) has really plummeted since LLMs have become marginally useful

Of course it's AI because why wouldn't it

You should be glad that the popup isn't using any dask patterns to coerce you into choosing an option you wouldn't otherwise agree with
Am I missing something or does that article only contain the back story and nothing actually noteworthy?
This is HN, not Reddit.

Only who could've imagined that security LLMs are vulnerable to prompt injection...
You can't shame the execution, you can shame the order
Re:What was your "Oh Shit" moment with GenAI? on Saturday June 06, 2026 @09:53AM (#48425171)
My oh shit moment was when I thought it was going to be the future but it ended up leaving me disappointed, frustrated and annoyed. It's closed down tech, stealing work, ruining our climate and it doesn't work remotely as well as advertised.
It's also unclear what conversing agents are useful for other than wasting money, energy and water.
Re:It's hard to justify buying a Framework 12 on Saturday May 30, 2026 @02:27AM (#48333237)
You really don't choose a Framework based on raw performance. You coose it because your values align with their philosophy.

Same goes for a Fairphone

Very nicely factual and non-clickbait article for once.

Oh no

We're just going to call more and more things faschist until the word has lost all its meaning
I hope fees increase massively to incentivise change

I'd prefer if post titles returned that immediately showed if it was an AI tool. These AI projects seem to be picking more and more random names
Firstly, you had to pay so much money for that screen that you had to consider buying a new device.

Secondly, Apple Products seem specifically engineered to easily break catastrophically (see SSD power supply below speaker grill, zapping the NAND modules if liquid enters the conveniently placed holes. Or a loose metal plate slicing a crucial ribbon cable when the phone was dropped. And many more such cases

This mix of overly fragile design and ridiculously expensive first-party repairs combined with parts pairing and the resulting inability of third-party, non-apple-certified repair shops to level the playing field is what I call a scam.

What problem does this solve?
The apple care experience is a scam
"We ran an unsupervised AI agent and gave it access to our entire business"
Annoyingly misleading title unfortunately.
Glup is indeed not the name of the project.
"Made in america" is dead.

Change your DNS server
Prwtty neat. Unfortunately wasn't able to solve the UI desync one :/
Re:Zig – Type Resolution Redesign and Language Changes on Wednesday March 11, 2026 @11:28AM (#47336890)
What makes zig special as a language? I have the impression that it has quite a large fan base here on HN but don't really hear any talks about it anywhere else.
