    More often than not, what matters is transforming a concept into working code that is good enough. The easier part is maintaining and tweaking that code, but do not underestimate t…

    When using the browser, what Anthropic calls Claude.ai, the memory is stored on your account on their servers. Claude code stores memory locally on the device, similar to how a dev…

    In general not really, but I do understand why it's a bit underwhelming to buy the clock upfront. With that said, the project is really cool and showcases the different watch faces…

    Well, of course politicians will try and hide what the law is about, so I find it necessary to clearly communicate what this legislation is about. CSAM hides behind an acronym and …

    Indeed, reusing "Chat Control" and giving it a new meaning is a surefire way to cause confusion. And the underhanded way of trying to get something as controversial as this to pass…

    Claude Opus 4.8 suggests "ReGRAM", which is less bad than GRAM.

    In that sense AI is a tool much like a dictionary, it enhances and I'd say improve the end result.

    Given the current state of the Chrome family of browsers and the anti adblocker stance from Google, i'd think that alone would guarantee Firefox a steady user base. Not sure how us…

    Also missing (I think) are anecdotes about previous experiences involving famous people or just memorable moments in history. Also comments where the poster shares details from the…

    Really spooky, all comments are LLM based and something certainly feels off, but can't quite put my finger on what it is. I think it has to do with comments that doesnt really comm…

    Well said, ideally action comes first and then these actions can be communicated. But in the real world, you have words ie. commitment before actions and a conclusion. Best of luck…

    Not sure why there are no specifics, but for anyone interested this seems to the merger that was denied, along with the reasons why it was denied. https://ec.europa.eu/commission/p…

    Brave indeed does block WebBluetooth by default, but it can be turned on by the user using flags. It's by no means a new feature, but the privacy concerns outlined in this post are…

    It should be put into law, that when you buy something, you have the right to do with it what you want for personal use. In the present case, Amazon clearly states that the custome…

    Take your pick, could be either one of: Coca Cola, PepsiCo, Red Bull, Ferrero, Kellogg, Kraft Heinz just to name a few. That aside, I think the law is a great step in the right dir…

    I understand the metaphor, but there is a huge difference between a D&D player and an entity such as a government. For starters the government is not in the habit of releasing thes…

    The incentive for a corporation leans heavily into making deals worth billions of dollars, which is also happening here. A change of status quo in this case, will require massive l…

    Also, there is quite a bit of money on the line, you can't really blame ABC for acting as a corporation: https://latenighter.com/news/jimmy-kimmels-removal-comes-ami...

    Looking forward to playing with 'dotnet run app.cs' instead of PowerShell. It'll probably not be really useful until multiple files support arrives in .NET 11: https://github.com/d…

    I agree with the barn door analogy and that the US badly needs a plan for building manufacturing. It also needs a plan for mining rare earth minerals as well as a plan for processi…
