Until someone develops hidden cameras with AI that will be auto turned on couple of hours later after detecting presence at that time a scan was already performed and nothing was found.....

Great job

To be clear:

The Live button (js/app.js:486-493) ticks every second (setInterval(liveTick 1000))

During the eclipse window (16:00–20:00 UT on 12 Aug 2026) it computes the current UTC time sets the slider and calls updateLive() which interpolates the umbra position between the precomputed path crossings (positionAt app.js:382) and moves the umbra + penumbra circles on the map (app.js:419-421) now added a rec button too allows to save gif files with the duration max of 2m every.

So the circles time readout and countdown all update live every second.

Before 16:00 UT it shows a countdown after 20:00 UT it shows "Eclipse over"

Luckily you don't need to access the webpage to use opencode

New comment by carlostkd in "Claude's code comments – too much or just enough?"

carlostkd — Tue, 28 Jul 2026 03:15:48 +0000

Well, a good programmer doesn't leave code comments in production code.

This is basic from school.

Why not?

Two reasons: First, you are telling an attacker, "Look, my code works like that, and this function does that, etc., etc." Without comments, let the attacker read and try to understand everything alone, if he can.

Secondly, it's easy to copy totally or partially, you spent hours coding and anyone can say "Oh look a nice function; it's what I was looking for."

The normal behavior should be keep comments for yourself in a development code copy delete all comments for production.

After this the number of the same occurrences will increase.... There are simple android apps that brings you literally near to the offender device this is not hard to do. But the question is, was this not spotted at airport? Or the name was set like that just in middle flight?

That is new? I thought it was old school. Our body itself makes creatine; unfortunately, the older we are, the less quantity our body produces. Taking a suplent its the correct and normal step to do.

You should read this before you install any #npm package. Because the author mentioned the taking advantage of the #AI #hallucinations but forgot that attackers can also "instruct" AIs to make reference to a malicious package
