  • Warning: Your AI-Generated Password Is a Major Security Risk. Here’s What to Use Instead

  • Python is really good for golfing. The flexible types are ripe for abuse.

    print(["fizzbuzz"[n%3and 4:8-(n%5and 4)]or n for n in range(1,101)])

  • What do you mean. Why would it be a problem that my password is the most statistically likely sequence of characters in the world? And that the password is stored in plaintext in a chat log? And used for training LLMs on password conversations?

  • It's buried deep in the article, but they seem to recommend:

    the LEAP method. Developed by Xavier Amador, it stands for Listen Empathize Agree Partner, and is meant to help better communicate with people who don’t realize they’re mentally ill or are refusing treatment.

    They link to https://namiga.org/resources/about-mental-illness/leap-assist-someone-accept-help/ which unhelpfully tells me my IP is blocked by CloudFlare because accessing that link is considered an "attack"

  • No no, someone really really should have been watching that piece of shit more closely.

  • Rhetorichal questions are annoying.

    Having to listen to me answering it seriously is fitting punishment.

  • My employer likes vibe-coding. What do I do?

    Jump

  • A small company this level of cooked and immature leadership may not have the resources to recover long term from the damage. Even if the bubble pops on them in a year.

    I'd start looking for alternatives now, before it becomes urgent.

  • Sent this in a family group chat, referring to my dad. My kids found it funny because they claim it is me.

  • Claude Code deletes developers' production setup, including its database and snapshots — 2.5 years of records were nuked in an instant

    Jump

  • According to mousetrap manufacturers, putting your tongue on a mousetrap causes you to become 33% sexier, taller and win the lottery twice a week.

    While some experts have argued caution that it may cause painful swelling, bleeding, injury, and distress, and that the benefits are yet to be unproven, affiliated marketers all over the world paint a different, sexier picture.

    However, it is not working out for everyone. Gregory here put his tongue in the mousetrap the wrong way and suffered painful swelling, bleeding, injury and distress while not getting taller or sexier.

    Gregory considers this a learning experience, and hopes this will serve as a cautionary tale for other people putting their tongue on mousetraps: From now on he will use the newest extra-strength mousetrap and take precautions like Hope Really Hard that it works when putting his tongue in the mousetrap.

  • We don't need cautionary tales about how drinking bleach caused intestinal damage.

    The people needing the caution got it in spades and went off anyway.

    Or maybe the cautionary tale is to take caution dealing with the developers in question, as they are dangerously inept.

  • Reddit users hate NordVPN. Are their criticisms legit?

    Jump

  • I mean... Deloitte is mercenary, and hired by the company wanting a passed audit.

    They get paid to check pre-agreed spots A, B, and C and keep their eyes closed outside those areas.

    A RAM-only server can still send metrics, metadata, "anonymized" metadata...

  • 10% of Firefox crashes are caused by bitflips

    Jump

  • As a long time Firefox user, I believe Firefox sees orders of magnitude more RAM issues than other apps because it is using orders of magnitude more RAM than other apps.

  • AI Bubble will Pop

    Jump

  • Software dev here. I am good at it, and people pay me unreasonably high rates to come in and do things faster and better than they can.

    It AI coding tools were useful, I'd use them.

    AI slows me down twice:

    • 60% productivity loss whenever I try to use it for anything else than a code search engine.
    • When I have to follow up the -1x engineers who are using AI to become -10x engineers.

    I have yet to see an AI adopter who actually gets shit done in a way that is meaningful to anyone exept their own psychotic selves.

    "With Claude I managed to do this in one hour!" Bro, what you did was generate 120 lines of Javascript that badly reimplements what could be a single line of CSS. You could have used that hour to learn some CSS.

    "Without AI coding tools, our team would have taken at least a month to make this barely-working standalone image upload page." My brother in Christ you are proudly yelling at me that you are fucking incompetent! A webdev worth their salary can shit out something better than that in their lunchtime bathroom break!

  • I'm struggling to think of any online services for which I'd be willing to verify my identity or age

    Jump

  • Zero-knowledge proofs are a good concept. They've been possible for a long, long time, and allow age check without surveillance.

    So why are they not being used? Because age check is just a cover. These people want to do surveillance, not protect kids.

    So it's a good counter. Want age check? Do it like this. Oh, you don't want it that way? Why not, pray?

    Whether it works (it has, previously) or not (as with the current bullshit from the US), it does bring to the public debate that this is unnecessary surveillance.

  • Windows 12 release date in 2026 possible, with AI features that may force CPU upgrades

  • Proton works great. I now play all my windows-"only" games on Linux.

    Not out of principle. I'm just lazy. My coding laptop is always within reach and Proton works. The Windows laptop is, like, way over on the other side of the living room and I don't feel like spending the evening disabling more ad shit or ai shit or whatever they did to Windows since I used it last.
