this comment seems to be astroturfing to sell a course

exfiltrating a credential provides persistent access (until detected and rotated) tho! probably one of the more leveraged things to prevent

I think this is a bit similar to Mojo's origin types: https://docs.modular.com/mojo/manual/values/lifetimes/#origi...

some quick feedback on the user interface:

- i pressed "Amino Acids", and nothing updated below the toolbar. can't figure out what it does

- the "Tools" buttons looks like a segmented picker, but both seem to actually initiate a modal presentation

this tool seems interesting, but it would be worth polishing some of these ui quirks because my first impression was that it seems a bit broken (or confused me)!

but seems like a cool project otherwise, love people building and sharing explainers as they learn stuff!

If there are rate limits, or if the search space is vast, this is notably more limited (even if arguably still enumeration)

is it actually free? or are we collectively paying for it by allowing the big business to gain control of an otherwise competitive market and jack up prices

individuals are not pricing that in. coordination is needed. that's why we regulate the market

it's not a great market for consumers if we allow big business to undercut pricing and kill competition

government should help us coordinate to prevent this Nash equilibria

New comment by jadengeller in "First Class Contexts – Rye Language"

jadengeller — Wed, 26 Jun 2024 05:10:56 +0000

It's hard for me to tease apart the differences between Rye "first class context", deprecated JS "with" statement, Scala/Idris/Agda implicit arguments, and I guess also just effect systems generally?

it feels like there're all features for ergonomic dependency injection, but maybe that's a lot of programming

This applies to usernames too! It's easy to phish if platforms render capital I and lowercase l the same

Yeah, the price difference between this and Teenage Engineering's own products is wild! It's worth noting the Playdate (by Panic) is designed by Teenage Engineering and also just $200. https://shop.play.date

I'll admit the device is very cute, but without a solution to prompt injection, you'd be a fool to give this access to your accounts.

It's not so bad if you think of this as pipelining. I definitely agree some intermediates ought to be named though.
