Some people on Twitter have jokingly suggested that the Iranians were looking for the maker of the Stryker military vehicle.

Why should the package's original language matter?

When I use apt-get, I have no idea what languages the packages were written in.

So? This sounds like a good thing.

If it isn't, then voters should vote for the opposite policy--allowing the airlines to stop working whenever they want.

Not to be even more persnickety, but "Unauthorized incoming traveler" was also used in earlier seasons, including in the episode with Charlie and the Reetou.

No, I don't need ChatGPT's help for the basics of air defense.

Military technologies are validated before deployed. Nobody can die from a hallucination.

But if I want to understand, say, how a particular Russian drone works, ChatGPT can help me piece together information from English, Russian, and Ukrainian-language sources.

But sometimes ChatGPT's safety filter thinks I want to use the Russian drone instead of stopping it, in which case it doesn't want to help.

I work for a company in the air defense space, and ChatGPT's safety filter sometimes refuses to answer questions about enemy drones.

But as I warm up the ChatGPT memory, it learns to trust me and explains how to do drone attacks because it knows I'm trying to stop those attacks.

I'm excited to see Claude's implementation of memory.

Graphite and stacked diffs are awesome! I really miss Phabricator from my time at Uber, and I've been sad ever since that nobody had built a superior developer experience based on the same concepts.

I do not understand your comment. If he were rich, then he would not be living on donations.

I think Zig is awesome, btw. Andrew deserves to make a lot more money.

I don't know. The aliens could be some type of insect with entire classes of workers that can never stop working.

Maybe they think about how to justify their working arrangements to us humans.

On the other hand, it is very good that the plant operated flawlessly for 50 years.

Now, someone needs to make a similar website for the 0.1x engineer.

Why not use something like Cloudflare as a caching layer between you and Google?

I don't disagree with you. You should argue with the comment I replied to.

People on Hacker News love discussing how to secure their information, but it's not clear if they have anything worth stealing.

This is a well-written blog post describing a real issue with GitHub's privacy mechanism.

But it is also a little silly for the blog post to show graphs extrapolating the hypothetical number of GitHub stars several years into the future. Their graphs' X-axis goes up to 2028.
