News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Be careful. Some data from resellers has been hacked or leaked and scammers will contact you saying your device is compromised to run software or other methods to get your keys. This is a known scam from previous ledger software exploits. They will give you cves and won't have any typically scammers accent.
Re:Capture why AI wrote each commit, stored in Git-notes on Tuesday August 25, 2026 @12:02AM (#49428932)
Sounds like more of a rant than a question and for that you get a ranty reply. Ask the AI how to improve your results.
I wish people had this same enthusiasm for ios and andriod.
Which raises the question. If the government really cared about kids why couldn't they fund the ISPs to have an opt in service to ban social media or implement these controls?
LLM is just a hypervised search engine. You still need to know what to ask, what you can get away with and what you can't.

Let's stop joking. Fly.io is a bunch of kids who got VP funding by some idiot who brought the infamous, 'if we had 1% of the market' line. Lesson will be learned. Sorry gents.

Re:Microsoft's new Outlook client moves your email to the cloud on Friday September 27, 2024 @05:04AM (#41667905)
I don't mind the new outlook. The meeting notifications are far less intrusive. You can update a meeting without spamming new emails. The simplified views do 95%of what I use it for. The calendar view is easier to read.

Everyone will hate this but whatever, internal company email is dead. It causes more issues than solutions. Phishing, spam, malware, etc. It's legacy tech.

The new outlook client is linking it with more modern medium specific communication such as loop, teams, sharepoint online, one drive etc.

Re:Kanban vs. Scrum: What's the Difference? on Friday July 05, 2024 @11:25PM (#40887972)
Scrum is iterative and incremental. While you plan a sprint, you loosely plan an increment and using the estimates and velocity, project where you will land.

It can be useful to know you're not going to make the 6 month project 3 months in. So you can readjust expectations or abandon the project entirely.

People will listen if you have evidence and the team on your side. Arguably this all depends on your project, culture and product.

Re:Apple introduces M4 chip on Wednesday May 08, 2024 @01:45AM (#40294735)
Fine just doesn't cut it for a premium machine you expect to last a few years at least. It's honestly just marketed so you want to spend extra and upgrade. Let's be real.
Re:Apple introduces M4 chip on Wednesday May 08, 2024 @01:43AM (#40294729)
Why can't they just make it 12gb? It will sell far easier. It's all soldered on anyway.

The worst thing reporting an IP can do is increase your ranking on scamalitics.

Cgnat is becoming common on home internet. You can share an IP with up to 128 other people.

Re:Unicomp's "New" Model M Keyboard on Monday February 12, 2024 @08:22PM (#39353124)
Used a unicomp Model M 8+ years ago. Spilled coffee on it and it was dead dead.

It's a very loud keyboard. You couldn't use one today if you had to type during a zoom or teams meeting.

How about the ultimate programming challenge. Make a project that makes real money.
That's funny. I asked ChatGPT if crypto produced anything of value and it seems to disagree with you.

Re:Twitter has officially changed its logo to ‘X’ on Monday July 24, 2023 @06:52PM (#36855359)
What if there were massive economic changes coming in the next 10 years? including gold backed BRICs currency competing with USD. Rise in a cdbc including carbon credit to limit spending and continued inflation globally.

Could this be a way to secure a global payment system away from a potential tyrannical alternative? Probably not. But if you were more in the know and were an insane billionaire, you might want to try..

Re:Twitter has officially changed its logo to ‘X’ on Monday July 24, 2023 @06:45PM (#36855299)
Why would you do that when you can just hire PR to run a campaign about how great you are?
He clearly implys they didn't have the print layout as a default. So the original comparison is unfair.

Sadly the marketing just works too well and now you're a conspiracy theorist for questioning the narrative.

You could blockchain link to something like civc with id verification.
