Personally, I'm waiting for Gemini Krypton, Xenon, and Radon.

What's the process like? I wasn't aware there was a paid API key.
The examples of mouse movement, really reminds me what bot scripts looked like for Runescape back in 00s-10s. Early scripts were color-based and jumped the mouse around, and those were quickly caught. But over time, bot scripts developed into complex orchestrations; taking breaks, doing random actions spontaneously, moving the mouse naturally, logging sessions on different platforms (mobile, PC), even responding in chat.
There's been plenty of effort put into mimicking realistic / "human" behavior in writing video game bots, and every video game still has tons of bots despite the best efforts of the game devs.
You definitely can't win against bots - but you can definitely make the entire "game" (web at large, in this case) worse off for everyone else through this "always-online DRM" parallel.

Show HN: Userscript to Display Age/Karma of HN Users

Small script to display account age/karma next to all usernames, so you have that info available to you without clicking through to someone's profile. Opus 4.6 written, it's a mess but it works :) Using with Tampermonkey on Firefox.

Would this result in the same .class that javac produces? I.e. at runtime is code compiled with this fundamentally different than code compiled with javac?

Ask HN: House/apartment search by ISP speed and quality
Internet is the most important modern utility, but the quality & speed varies greatly city to city and within providers. How do you search for an apartment/houses with this in mind?As odd as it sounds I'd never move into a house without at least a gigabit connection.Having to call ISPs, or "fake sign-up" to see connection plans, is a real drain - am I missing a better way here?
