Re:Railway (PaaS) Global Outage

Second complete outage on railway in 2 months for us (there was also a total outage on December 16th), and many issues with stuck builds and other minor issues in the months before that.
Looking to move. It's a bit of hassle to setup coolify and Hetzner but I have lost all trust.

Thanks - I also turned it off. I guess it's a marketing thing for them, but it feels like it goes against the ethos of the company. Particularly given the fact they are clearly aware of this as they put it in the 'Privacy' section.

Re:Bose is open-sourcing its old smart speakers instead of bricking them
on Thursday January 08, 2026 @10:24AM (#46542096)
Good for them. Makes me more likely to consider buying a Bose in future, not just because I know it won't be bricked, but also for the environmental impact of this. Kudos.

Interesting you have this opinion yet you're using Cursor instead of Claude Code. By the same logic, you should get even better results directly using Anthropic's wrapper for their own model.

Re:Disrupting the first reported AI-orchestrated cyber espionage campaign
on Friday November 14, 2025 @08:26AM (#45926502)
> Overall, the threat actor was able to use AI to perform 80-90% of the campaign, with human intervention required only sporadically (perhaps 4-6 critical decision points per hacking campaign). The sheer amount of work performed by the AI would have taken vast amounts of time for a human team. At the peak of its attack, the AI made thousands of requests, often multiple per second—an attack speed that would have been, for human hackers, simply impossible to match.

I use Claude Code, haven't used Codex yet (should I?) - but in Claude code you can spin up sub-agents to handle these big refactors, with the master context window just keeping track of the overall progress, bugs, etc and providing instructions to the subagents to do the rote work.
