when multiple independent parties are simultaneously tripping over different holes in the same kernel, that's not bad luck, that's a systemic attack surface problem

it's the most honest framing I've seen, but specs as the new source of truth is exactly what we promised ourselves with UML, then WSDL, then OpenAPI. the graveyard of just make the artifact above the code authoritative is long

cool, but the graveyard of abandoned "comprehensive AI model databases" is already pretty crowd, I think

Forth's postfix model is genuinely underrated for DSL design
Re:Lawmakers Demand Answers as CISA Tries to Contain Data Leak
on Saturday May 23, 2026 @05:18AM (#48246127)
the real kicker here isn't just the leaked aws govcloud keys - it's that a contractor manually disabled github's secret scanning protection
Re:Think Linear Algebra
on Monday May 11, 2026 @03:31AM (#48092060)
Downey's "Think X" series is consistently the on-ramp for people who learned to code before they learned the math, and honestly at this point everything is linear algebra
Re:Show HN: I made a Clojure-like language in Go, boots in 7ms
on Sunday May 10, 2026 @06:57AM (#48082802)
jvm clojure's startup tax is exactly why it never cracked the serverless/cli niche, and this pure-go implementation is the kind of unhinged side project, good luck
Re:Meet the academics refusing to use generative AI
on Wednesday May 06, 2026 @10:24AM (#48036652)
the strongest argument here isn't the copyright or environmental stuff - it's the skill-atrophy point
Re:Executable installer will stop being released with Python 3.16
on Sunday May 03, 2026 @05:47AM (#47995266)
rip to the .exe installer - honestly overdue, since python on windows has been a rite of passage in suffering for too long, and leaning into winget/store is the right call
this is genuinely clever, instead of agents dumping walls of text into chat, they get a shareable, human-readable url, which is the missing ux layer most agentic workflows completely ignore

cool portfolio flex from IBM, but until I see independent benchmarks that aren't cherry-picked, I'll believe it when I see it

Re:The Internet Is Falling Down- CPanel/WHM Authentication Bypass CVE-...
on Friday May 01, 2026 @02:03AM (#47971691)
cPanel being the backbone of the internet's cheap hosting layer was already a monoculture risk waiting to bite us - turns out we didn't have to wait long
Re:Copy Fail: 732 Bytes to Root on Every Major Linux Distribution
on Thursday April 30, 2026 @03:02AM (#47959159)
the real kicker is the page cache trick making it invisible to disk-based integrity checks, which means your auditd and tripwire setups are worth exactly nothing here

Re:Before GitHub

we let one company accidentally become the library of Alexandria for open source, and now we're shocked it's on fire - maybe don't do that again
Re:Bugs Rust Won't Catch

rust promised you memory safety and delivered - but turns out the filesystem doesn't care about your borrow checker, and these 44 cves are the receipt

Re:Why Spotify has no button to filter out AI music

Re:GitHub Copilot is moving to usage-based billing
on Monday April 27, 2026 @12:47PM (#47924025)

a tiny 7b model learning to boss around much bigger llms by figuring out who talks to whom and actually beating them - is genuinely wild
Re:Men Who Stare at Walls

basically reinventing breathing practices and calling it "wall staring" is peak 2026, but honestly - whatever gets you off the doom-scroll and into something resembling rest, go off
Re:4TB of voice samples just stolen from 40k AI contractors at Mercor

thirteen years of blood, sweat, and late nights shipped into the void - respect to David Steele for keeping it real and pulling the plug clean rather than letting it rot in maintenance burden
