She probably thought that having Jeffrey Epstein involved in her porn site would be a benefit to humanity. The people involved in Epstein's plots probably also thought they were benefiting humanity (just maybe not the humans alive right now)

And for clarity, this isn't just Dario's wife, she's part of the executive staff.

This reminds me of one of the funniest products I've ever seen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdbkvJznmwU

This is the "kosher switch" - observant Jews customarily do not use light switches on Saturday (their weekly holy day). This light switch represents a workaround where when you flip the switch, it randomly generates an on or off signal and emits this through an optical coupler. When the random number sufficiently causes the state of the light to change, it latches in that direction.

This is a way of turning the lights on and off without violating the tradition.

"I didn't switch the light, the random number did!"

"I didn't exploitVulnerability(), random number did!"

What sorts of places do you hang out in, or how old are you?

People who did programming for the love of programming was extremely common in the sortof hacker subculture that existed from 1990-2010is or so.

I'm interested to see what cases for this will look like.

Literally putting tokens into a machine and hoping profit comes out. Amazing.

It is actually astonishing to me that this is not something which can be turned off at the OS level, or as a permission setting in the app permissions.

The app knowing I took a screenshot feels adjacent to me to a keylogger. Imagine how many apps are capturing that information silently. To my mind, a screenshot is something that is happening outside of the app context, the app knowing about it is a security flaw imo.

The tick you're talking about here (hard to crush) is a wood tick, the types that carry lyme are deer ticks.

They're much, much smaller. The size of a poppy seed.

If you don't do any 3D printing, it's hard to understand the difference between bambu labs and nearly everything else.

The Bambu printers work. Imagine the difference between windows XP and OSX. Do you guys remember the insane breath of fresh air it was to get a computer which just worked?

That's Bambu. Yeah they aren't open source there's all sorts of telemetry, etc. Nobody cares because they really just want to print things.

This is amid an ongoing bombing campaign by Israel which is primarily targeting civilians.

The world that hackers grew up in just doesn't exist anymore.

The EFF is leaving a platform voluntarily? Because they disagree with the politics of the platform? What?

I don't know man that seems pretty lame. Stick around and argue with people if you think twitter is so bad now.

No, that's just the reality of the market right now. Software engineers are an extremely hot field, likely because everybody is trying to add AI to their products.

Just as a reminder, 15 years ago was 2011.

That was...like 4 macbooks ago. I still have keyboards from that era. I still have speakers and monitors from that era kicking around.

We are definitely, definitely not the last generation to use keyboards.

The fact that you believe this is the exact reasoning behind trying to prevent things like what Jimmy Kimmel did here.

It could not be more cut and dry than this. In fact it is so cut and dry that a conspiracy theory on both the left and the right is that the text messages demonstrating his political motivations aren’t genuine.

The model should appear as a drop down at the top of the page.

I actually think that pasting questions into chatGPT etc. and then getting general answers to put into your code is the way.

“One shotting” apps, or even cursor and so forth seem like a waste of time. It feels like if you prompt it just right it might help but then it never really does.

The people assessing his talent are falling for the same delusion as the people conducting the interview.

Remember: we’re all in this together!

Is there a single person that takes what Sam is saying here seriously?

Extremely vulnerable to rubber hose attacks.

I would be very happy to do this.

Fine, make it optional. I actually would love a version of cold storage that is: never release this money unless I personally travel to an office if NYC and authorize it.

Is there anything crypto does that paper currency doesn’t?

Ah, cool. My name, home address, phone number, social security number, and images of my drivers license and passport as well as what bank I use.

Correct. Coinbase is a bank that holds cryptocurrency.

One step would be not to locate all of the call centers in countries where “stealing money from elderly Americans” is a noticeable part of their GDP.

The problem is that it seems like the data that leaked is also the data that would be used to do account recovery.

And what that means is that

1) If you lose access to your account (through either your own fault, or coinbases fault) that the process of recovering it may not be so straightforward anymore.

2) Hackers can try to “recover” accounts now using this leaked info.

This is a huge problem. What coinbase needs are IRL offices where you can go and do things like account recovery, and where people trying to steal money can be caught and prosecuted (and makes a huge barrier for the overseas thieves who are usually doing this)

The only solution here is: hardware 2 factor like yubikeys.

No. I absolutely love my car. I have put 60,000 miles on mine in 3 years, largely from long cross country road trips. It's far and away my favorite driving experience of any car I've ever driven.

Are you trying to make the point that people don’t care or aren’t aware of the fact that their clothes are made in sweatshops by linking to a western blog extensively detailing the brands that use sweatshops with the implied point that you should avoid them because they are bad?

Sweatshops are bad. Westerns know this. They don’t want sweatshops.

Seeing YC back a sweatshop management application that uses AI to help managers harass their workers is sad. It would be similar to them investing in faster slave ships in the 1850s.

>As someone who grew up in a 3rd world country and whose mother owned a clothing factory, this product seems...fine?

People in western countries find things like sweatshops to be objectionable.

>The response is an indication of how little people know about how their t-shirts and shoes are made.

People in western countries are well aware of how their shirts are made, and don't like it, and try to avoid it when possible specifically because they find sweatshop conditions objectionable.

The website makes it sounds like this is just...AI sweatshop monitoring software? What the heck?

So raise the cost until it's profitable and see who buys it.
