I personally wonder if the writing (and coding) smells are being leveraged for watermarking/steganography. Like, if it's quirky but intentional; they're biding the time, leaving br…

When I run the Waveguide Simulator demo on my Alienware M15 Ryzen Ed. R5 (has a RTX 3070; Windows 11 Pro, Chrome v129), I hear a distinct high pitched flutter noise emanating from …

No question, just want to say Bun is awesome and thank you. (minor nit: release article says "Uint8Array.prototype.fromBase64()" when it's actually "Uint8Array.fromBase64()" per th…

Or they could keep an archive of the annotations and provide a process for the video owners to choose to have Google 'bake' them into the video permanently after they've been shut …

> The name just automatically angers a significant portion of the population, no matter who the president happens to be. I think that pretty much speaks to how shamefully bad polit…

Previous discussion about this in 2016: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11911116 Last I checked you can always give Chrome a stronger hint not to autocomplete using something …

Yup. Obfusticating using a tool like http://www.jsfuck.com would get around the lack of quotations. If the result was too verbose, you can always handroll your own JS: {{constructo…

Makes sense because htmlspecialchars() doesn't protect against malicious Vue template expressions, it only converts characters that are used to represent html tags, entities or att…

I made something very similar for fun a few years ago[0] and added it to a repository called You-Dont-Need-JavaScript[1]. CSS-only for this sort if thing is totally contrived, but …

Reminds me of a time I once wrote a script in Node to send an endless stream of bytes at a slow & steady pace to bots that were scanning for vulnerable endpoints. It would cause th…

I once made a CSS-only Todo List[1] that demonstrated chaining sibling selectors, using the :checked psuedo selector, CSS counters and some other things to "enhance" a Todo without…

It's tough to say that Chrome made the right call, as I enjoy being able to (in theory) rely on browsers aiming to be standard compliant. The standard is there for a reason, no? I …

It classified this Labrador-"I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I AM DOING"-meme: http://i.imgur.com/ZQaM2D7.jpg as vip: 45%, moustache: 45%, person: 26% http://i.imgur.com/FYkxCNS.png

I think that if they are remotely serious (being almost April 1st) I think I'd like to see them offer to bundle NFC stickers with each product purchase, so that I can place them ne…

What makes a controller right handed?

This might also work: Truthfully, base64 is probably better at deterring email harvesters.

Least bytes? var a=process.argv,i=a.length,x=0;while(i>2)x-=-a[--i];console.log(x)

A stab in the dark would be chips made from Graphene or IBM's Silicene, if I am to understand what you quoted.

I deal(t) with the same thing. I made it so my web server would try to stream a page that never ends, and some bots would stay connected for hours and hours. But over time they see…

I used to use http://help.dottoro.com/ when I was learning to program. I would recommend it if someone was looking for a good go-to doc. But for quick reminders (which is rare) I u…

What if a different robots.txt is being served up for the real Googlebots? EDIT: Based on the comments in their robots.txt it appears that they are whitelisting certain robots. You…

Shocking. I saw this a mile away. Anyone who didn't call this should work on improving their judge of character. Snowden is a patriot.
