Ease of use is, unfortunately, exactly what Apple and Google request your data for in exchange.

There are wallets like ridge that I use for NFC with card, there’re also phone cases with card holders. It’s not like there’s no solution to this problem..

Show HN: Durbat – Write Rust Code Using Black Speech

rpunkfu — Fri, 31 Oct 2025 23:12:46 +0000

Durbat is a Rust procedural macro that enables writing Rust using Black Speech keywords, identifiers, and module paths. It maps Black Speech constructs to their Rust equivalents while remaining fully interoperable with standard Rust.

No idea, didn't follow the news on it afterwards.

New comment by rpunkfu in "Ozempic shows anti-aging effects in trial"

I believe that while your points are valid, they play a much more important role than merely serving as a tool for someone who doesn't want to delve deeper into the problem.

I don't think being on Ozempic for an extended period is a good idea. This isn't because it's unhealthy, but because people often become leaner while still consuming unhealthy food. The difference is that they now exclusively eatthat unhealthy food, in good case bit less of it (based on my observations of people I know who are using it).

However, there is a significant benefit to Ozempic. For individuals struggling with self-control and obesity, it can help them reach a better starting point quickly. When someone is obese, every day matters. The sooner they lose weight, the more likely they are to feel motivated to take the next steps: moving more, exercising, and avoiding unhealthy food, as they won't want to waste the hard work they put into their workouts.

I wasn't making a statement about whether his experience was relevant to the job. I don't know the author and don't automatically doubt his knowledge. I was simply sharing the opinion that being the author of that UI library alone does not fast-track someone for the "Software Engineer working on Claude Code" position at Anthropic.

You got me, adding “using enigo” makes all the difference — I guess position is exclusively for working with this one library and that’s the position they got overloaded with applications on and couldn’t process one sent by OP.

I wasn't aware of that; it wasn't clearly specified. It only mentioned a "secret" feature, but I assumed it was AI-related rather than UI-related. Additionally, Anthropic's Claude Code position on their website states that they expect their developers to work across the stack, including both front-end and back-end.

It mentioned an "open position in the team implementing the secret, unreleased feature of Claude Desktop," which doesn't specify whether the "secret" feature is AI-related or UI-related. My guess leans towards the former.

I don't mean to downplay the author's skills, but I don't see how creating an input simulation library fast-tracks someone for consideration in an AI-related engineering role.

Similar thing to what we’ve witnessed with crypto coins. It’s AI season and those with money invest in it, pump it and will exit post IPO. Difference here is, that besides value that those products “hold”, it’s possible also to provide AI as a service, making Google / Microsoft etc interested.

Not going to college is not your failure, that's what world tells most of us, but that's complete bullshit.
