Log4Shell was comparatively easy to patch, you could literally do it with a simple shell script+rebooting the application server.

As the Old Jaffa joke says:

A serpent guard, a Horus guard, and a Setesh guard meet on a neutral planet. It is a tense moment. The serpent guard's eyes glow. The Horus guard's beak glistens. The Setesh guard's... nose drips.

A bunch of tech guys not understanding that you can't fight fascism with technological workarounds.

After you install it you cana "safe contact" or do the reporting on a website which will blocklist the phone's IMEI on all phone companies, block any banking app sessions and remotely wipe the phone.

It also functions as a public searchable database of stolen phones, allowing a prospective buyer of a second hand device to check it.

Are you earning more money or working fewer hours? Are you eating healthier meals, with better sleeping quality? Because all I read is that you are generating more money for the shareholders.

The target of this process is not the residential use, but industry processing.

Instead of heating water to extract coffee and then latter cooling it to freeze dry and make instant coffee you keep the whole process at low temperatures, saving lots of power.

fluxbox have been doing that for over 20 years

Portugal has a growing Xenophobic attitude towards immigrants, specially Brazilians and this is reflected in linguistic prejudice.

They have concerns of portuguese children learning to "speak brazillian" because there is a lot more of video content being produced in Brasil than in Portugal and stuff like movies, videogames and software in general are avaliable in brazilian localization/adaptation first.

I would suggest slackware as a long lived software project too

Yep, out of precaution i've never used their sync infrastructure, which I guess was reasonably cheap to run, but the moment you add LLMs to the mix it is obvious that they are in for the free VC money and are soon going to need a lot of investment to keep the lights on.

About the "ai", the announcement is very vague. Is this incorporating a local model on device, something running on your infrastructure or a third party model like Claude? Because to me nowadays adding AI on anything usually means higher running costs equals sooner or latter enshittification.

They are probably going for a new thinkphone generation for the prosumer/enterprise and not for the consumer market.

The usual canned beans (at least here in Brazil) are not ultra-processed, just processed, as they normally contain beans, water and salt.

It is happening already, recently Brazilian woman living in Italy was scammed thinking she was having an online relationship with Brazilian tiktoker, the scammers created a fake profile and were sending her audio messages with the voice of said tiktoker cloned via AI. She sent the scammers a lot of money for the wedding but when she arrived in Brazil discovered the con.

yep, i had one led stripe with a controller with a flickering that was kinda invisible to the eye, but very noticeable on camera.

Not doom, but (sorta) a website https://hackaday.com/2025/09/15/hosting-a-website-on-a-dispo...

I know that hn is heavily populated by people from the USA, that the author is dutch but a non-english language would be... every other language beside English.

Commenting on the actual text, his solution for the cedilla is awkward and is one of the first things I disable on any computer, because it is a extremely common letter in portuguese.

WPA2-entreprise and WPA3 both have certificate chains checking exactly to avoid such attacks

People keep reinventing LaTeX, but poorly. Most of the issues described have already been solved by it at least 20 years ago, especially the semantics part. The tooling is mature, well understood and supported on all operating systems.

Most of the AI products are not for the end user, they are just signaling shareholders and possible investors that the company is on the hype.

Anthropic is more secretive about their costs, Ed Zitron is right now investigating their costs, specifically on GCP

And self sustained nuclear fusion is 20 years away, perpetually. On which evidence can he affirm a timeline for AGI when we can barely define intelligence?

Imagine such a amazing productivity tool, so amazing that you have to force your users into using it. As a person that was just born yesterday, I'm quite sure that the other technologies that are constantly compared to LLMs, like the internet and smartphones certainly must have endured the same adoption barriers, right?

In Brazil we already have a free, instantaneous payment system with a well documented API

In Brasilia, Brazil only main avenues are named and all addresses are also by block, just like in Japan.

It is common misconception, but evolution does not happen at the individual level, but on populations, so a single individual not reproducing is irrelevant, as long as the local population carrying the same genes do successfully reproduce.

It is supremely annoying when i ask in a group if someone has experience with a tool or system and some idiot copies my question into some LLM and paste the answer. I can use the LLM just like anyone, if i'm asking for EXPERIENCE it is because I want the opinion of a human who actually had to deal with stuff like corner cases.

I had a friend, already over 40 have a similar episode, mixing a conspiracy belief triggered by searching for patterns in data, incorrectly treated bipolar disorder and a HUGE amount of cocaine. It was not schizophrenia, but a long episode of mania with delusions of grandeur, where he was the main character on a erotic-thriller-like story.

"Next Administration" LOL
