Re:An Agentic IDE That Builds Itself on Thursday August 06, 2026 @11:09PM (#49205514)
Been using bb for the last few days. Definitely onto something here. Really cool being able to build out an ECAD plugin for a hardware project and have it be fully customisable. I wonder if this same premise could be applied to lightweight custom plugins for other fields like GTM.

Issues with VSCode Marketplace as well.

This probably has something to do with the ISO 18013-5 standard.

This is precisely what the South Australian Digital ID does.

This. Also covers deleted files being overwritten when new files are created.

Depends on where you get the Psilocybin from. Search "Magic Truffles"

I think we'll see the market shift to delivery in BC. Storefronts are getting heavily targeted now.

"Stories" is a good descriptor for unsubstantiated claims made by the Ecuadorian government, which were denied by the former president.
Testing the waters maybe..

Re:The “.ro” Gold Rush (2018) on Monday January 28, 2019 @12:49PM (#19019427)
This has been happening in the .au for years. One example: https://www.drop.com.au/

Registrars that run drop catch auction sites increase their odds by acquiring more connections to the Registry.

I remember looking into this years ago, and the prices were in the $100-$200 range for low volumes. Was this your experience?
Re:Estonia sues Gemalto for €152M over ID card flaws on Sunday September 30, 2018 @07:30AM (#18105715)
I suppose the Estonians are partially at fault for trusting Gemalto with anything, post Snowden.
Re:Atlassian's new terms forbid benchmarking on Sunday September 30, 2018 @06:40AM (#18105594)
We replaced Jira+Confluence with Notion. It might not work for everyone, but it definitely fits our use case. (small dev team)
Re:Atlassian's new terms forbid benchmarking on Saturday September 29, 2018 @07:28PM (#18103597)
After 4 years of dicking around with Jira/Confluence, we finally got rid of them last month. Haven't looked back since.
Re:OpenSC2K – An Open Source Remake of SimCity 2000 on Monday February 05, 2018 @02:49AM (#16307282)
Hmm - cool project. Don't want to be a buzzkill, but copyright?

Should probably remove the assets to avoid a takedown.

Re:Reading privileged memory with a side-channel on Wednesday January 03, 2018 @09:37PM (#16067544)
Yuval Yarom's contribution (Flush+Reload) seems quite understated, considering how important it is to the attack.
Re:Reading privileged memory with a side-channel on Wednesday January 03, 2018 @09:34PM (#16067525)
Interesting that they left it this late.
Re:SEC Emergency Action Halts PlexCoin ICO on Tuesday December 05, 2017 @12:35AM (#15849972)
From their FAQ:

"Is it safe? The cryptocurrency is currently the safest currency. Unlike cash, you cannot lose it or have it robbed. No bank will be able to validate your transactions or to take fees on your transactions. It's your money and no one will be able to scrutinize your operations."

People bought this?

The EU is going in the right direction with this, re: the right to data portability in the GDPR. Only way Facebook is going to implement this functionality is when they are forced to.
Re:Great, now there's 'responsible encryption' on Saturday October 28, 2017 @09:04PM (#15577534)
I've been seeing the 'responsible encryption' meme popping up quite a bit recently. Like this bloke, who thinks people that want working encryption are extremists. http://www.circleid.com/posts/20171024_legal_controls_on_ext...

yep, I just fixed it then. Trending on hackernews is not always a good thing.

What is going on with the .hm?

I know its a dud registry, but it has been breaking some of DNS and WHOIS tools.. Not even responding to a WHOIS.It also seems to be throwing some weird GET requests when I try to access the nameservers [ns1.registry.hm], [ns2.registry.hm][14:05:38.617] GET http://www.searchnut.com/?domain=ns1.registry.hm&registrar=2120BDFE9D&affiliate=ns1.registry.hm [HTTP/1.0 302 Moved Temporarily...
