It's a wrapper around git, compatible with git repos but supposedly easier to use

There's also another scenario - annoy most users into using passkeys, then say "well everyone is using passkeys already, we don't need passwords anymore", and _then_ slowly start requiring attestation. Really I'm not one to look for conspiracy theories, but with the recent pushes around e.g. chat control, it's not that far fetched to assume someone pushes for more control over users' accounts

I tried to read the "Does it need Screen Recording or Accessibility?" part, but it's slopped to the point I have no clue what it's trying to say. But if it can draw on top of permission prompts, what's stopping it from drawing box that hides the "decline" button and changing the "approve" button copy?

I've got my current, amazing, job from a recruiter cold messaging on LinkedIn. Honestly for job seeking, from what I could gather among my laid off colleagues, it's very decent. None of us had any real LinkedIn activity either, except filling in the profile and job history

Haven't looked into how accurate the page is, but the list of regressions on the bottom looks terrifying, at first glance?

100%, I wish for a legislation which would require the providers to give you at least a unique hash identifying the model (and infra running it, if it affects output) - such that the same hash must give the same output given the same seed. Right now it's all just vibes

Okay 5tb cloud storage is their most expensive plan. But what do you actually use video or image gen for? Or music gen? Antigravity is garbage, I guess you can do some stuff with Gemini models over API. I was paying for Google ai and then realized that between obscure limits and gimmick features I don't really need it. Canceled my subscription and didn't even notice a difference

If you read the article it states clearly that the sandbox wasn't offline though? There were API calls to certain endpoint(s) allowed, and the model simply used that endpoint's feature to query data from the internet

Fuzzer, then. It implies random behavior, which isn't unintended like you suggest. The agent's/bots/fuzzers have certain capabilities, so it's on their operator to make sure they don't do things they shouldn't

Multiplatform and Compose come to mind as Kotlin differentiators. I agree rest of the language actually slowly falls behind

Except ~nobody uses declarative gradle in production yet, and groovy is mostly declining in favour of also turing complete Kotlin. It's yet to be discovered how declarative gradle fares and how much of imperative glue real-life projects will need

Is it? You're still putting a lot of thought and guidance into the agent's harness, the final code is just a tiny bit of that. It's like giving a junior developer final code vs explaining the whys and nuance. Which I'm not sure I want to give Meta

And send the content + PGP envelope over how many text messages? And for every single message?

I also didn't know how to do that, and I'm certain that I've looked it up at some point. It's just so unintuitive that I'd need to do it daily to remember

I'll take any scripting language over Lua any day. Every time I had to extend a tool that used Lua as a scripting language, I abandoned that tool because Lua was such a pain. I genuinely don't understand the praise it gets

About the same way you'd know Anthropic is getting you the model you picked. Which to me is not really obvious, given clear differences in quality throughout the day and month

It's hard to tell the difference because they nerfed Pro to oblivion, it used to be much, much better model (even for non-coding/chat)

EU doesn't impose a minimum manufacturer warranty period. What it imposes is a _seller_ guarantee, for which the manufacturer's limited warranty conditions don't really apply directly anyway. Many companies will offer a 2-year warranty because they know that's how long they need to support the buyer anyway, but I've often seen conditions like "2 year warranty for EU, 1yr in US". Anyway, iiuc pebble is not doing anything illegal as long as they don't refuse seller warranty for these 2 years

I'd be surprised if Reddit wasn't selling tools specifically aimed at seting up and managing operations like that

I think the idea is that _regular_ people will use CC client but via a 3rd party reseller, and the reseller intercepts the data for distilling (or anything). Requiring the users to use modified clients, or really do anything more than simply change the service URL, would add much more friction for people just looking to use CC for cheaper

It doesn't, I get that it's _a_ benchmark. It's just not a good or insightful one, and having it posted so often on HN feels like low quality spam at this point

Upvotes are cheap, the fact that something is upvoted doesn't mean it's valuable (see: Reddit). Another thing is how insightful is the discussion under a typical pelican comment are (and how much of it is related to the pelican and how often it's just where the general discussion happens).

Genuine question, what's the goal of posting this on almost every single new model thread here on HN? I may be old and grumpy but to me it got old a while ago, and is closer to a low effort Reddit comment

Care to share an example of this backrestless chair? Is it like a regular chair just without the backrest, or has some other differences? Does it have armrests for example, and if not - does it bother you?

From my experience, these trucks make much more sense on a road in the US. European roads are fairly small so these trucks look _even bigger_, whereas in the US everything is massive so the cars fit. Still, having to look _up_ to see the windshield is crazy and I hope it won't be normalized in the EU

> to fit two motorcycles in the back of the Ranger, you need to adjust the angle of the handlebars awkwardly to fit both on the bed.

can't you position one bike facing forward and one facing back, so the handlebars don't collide? Either way, going with an absurdly big and dangerous car to avoid _awkwardly positioning_ some cargo is pretty American thing to do

Thank you, that makes sense. But in that case it doesn't do much for the op's argument, which seems to be that Europe _prefers massive cars_. US still has much more of obscenely big cars, and Ford F having less % pickup market share shows that there's much bigger market for these cars, if anything

> The Ford Ranger actually sells better in Europe than it does in the US. And the larger F series trucks sell more than an order of magnitude more.

Do you have any sources for this? I looked online and found a couple of charts, none of them support this claim. The Ford Ranger sales in Europe vs US are similar (who buys more varies by year) but the F series seems to be mostly bought in US

On Android most apps started bundling androidx/jetpack compat libraries that help deal with various API versions, and generally make the development much, _much_ easier. These days apps will also bundle the entire new Android UI framework (Compose) while in the past all the UI code was using framework classes.

Other than that, some popular and useful libraries will bundle native libs (for example for sql), and some ad/analytics/corporate SDKs will use native libs to share code between platforms and for obfuscation. These corporate SDKs (like Zendesk) will also notoriously break Android minification tools, because why bother
