The shift here is that up until now output (code, in this case) required a degree of competence. As such, we socialized that being able to put out the code showed a degree of compe…

It's not just the status quo, it's a nightmare to enable. Somehow between Google Play Advanced Protection and Google Account Advanced Protection I have to resort to several reboots…

I feel like we work at the same place. IT Husbandry/Debt Paying/KTLO whatever you call it is being ground into dust. Especially repetitive stuff that I originally would've needed a…

No, Claude Code reads the CLAUDE.md in the root of your project. It's case sensitive so it has to be exactly that, too. Github Copilot reads from .github/copilot-instructions.md an…

I got an email update for a very adult kink event recently that was entirely written by Claude with emoji bulleted lists and everything. All that was missing was the EXECUTIVE SUMM…

As someone who started out a GenAI skeptic, I’ve found the truth is in the middle. I write a TON of one off scripts now at work. For instance, if I fight with a Splunk query for mo…

I meant b from the first set which maps onto c from the second set. Lol. I should've been clearer.

The article pretty clearly lays out it's at least functionally B. The problem is Dell doesn't publish the drivers necessary for the Windows installer on it's website. You can only …

They seem to have the api base url hardcoded in their firmware[1]. The repo seems to have pretty clear instructions for compiling and flashing modified firmware. From there, it's j…

Having RTFA: I think it's an interesting take to centralize zoning at the state level. Houston (which has no zoning ordinances) is a terrible place to live, but it's definitely an …

Just say BofA.

Billpay Checks are actually Cashier's Checks and are drawn from account numbers that aren't your account, btw. It's one of the reasons it's far more secure to pay any bill requirin…

I use a USB foot-pedal mapped to `.

Aha! That makes sense! Yes that can be a problem. We exclusively use a single (our own) IdP so it's less important for us. But good to know as some future feature work will actuall…

That's something that isn't OAuth2 or your end point is accepting something insane. Are you talking about the PKCE variant of authorization code flow which is what replaces implici…

Yes because embedded XMLDsig is great! I've never seen a SAML implementation that worked reliably across IDPs outside of Java, honestly.

It isn't. OAuth2 really did away with AuthZ and focused on AuthN, regardless of what anyone says. You have scopes but even those outside of the OIDC scopes are wishy washy and mean…

...what? The server generates the auth code and redirects the user agent to your callback. You exchange that code with the IDP (over HTTPS which yeah that's its own nest of wormy t…

Most of these package systems being attacked run arbitrary code on your system when you install the package in order to allow native extensions to compile. Maven/Java simply downlo…

You're referring to the launch of FedNow, right? It's interesting because most of the analysis I've seen keeps assuming it'll be more B2B and that people will just continue to use …

Most vimdevs (myself included) have a plethora of plugins cobbling together a custom and comfy IDE. Almost no one is using a plain text editor now. And emacs users never had a plai…

I can see how it’d be read like that. Please allow me to be clear, they did not do that. I do not think they did that. There is absolutely ZERO proof they did that. However if they…

Back when the news first came out there were several blog posts posted to HN by people who host user uploaded photos at scale who had NCMEC come knocking at their door to strong ar…

I am against CSAM as much as anyone but NCMEC and their database is a total farce. They produce mountains of unactionable reports, false positives, and their (or was it Microsoft’s…
