It’s truly strange that people keep citing the quality of Claude code’s leaked source as if it’s proof vibe coding doesn’t work. If anything, it’s the exact opposite. It shows that…

Everything's more costly in Hawaii, including maintaining infrastructure

Sorry you got scammed, FIFA awarded me their 100m sprint gold medal so I'm the real fastest 100m runner in the world

It seems unlikely, athletes are consuming liters of oxygen per minute. Plus, the impact is at least partially offset by needing to carry the extra weight with you. Different story …

Don't hold your breath for that, Azure still has spotty IPv6 support

A proper training plan makes you more injury resistant and makes it easier to bounce back from injuries if you do happen to get hurt. For example, just look at the data for sarcope…

It requires mercury-198 as an input. The only quote I could find for mercury-198 is about $15K per milligram. So now we just need to figure out how to make mercury-198 cheaply.

You can also have the most flexible system ever designed, but if the rest of your team doesn't understand it then good luck implementing that required use cases

And treating politics like team sports is the root of the problem

Adding on to what others have said, LastPass stored vault "metadata" unencrypted. Metadata included things the url. This allowed the attackers to prioritize cracking vaults of high…

Every ORM I've ever used has some raw SQL escape hatch you can use when you hit that edgecase. For the 90% of DB access that really is simple, ORMs are a pleasure. For that other 1…

I work at a company that does a lot of code generation, and it gets uglier the longer you do it. It's much harder to write the code that generates the code you want than to just wr…

10 per day is a ridiculously low limit. Also, NAT and shared networks (think college campus) mean that hundreds of people often share the same IP, making that limit even more ridic…
