I must have missed it, but what did Claude disable access for? Last I checked Cline and Claude Max still worked.

I wish someone at X would leak data on the current state of the user base. Clearly it’s filed with abandoned accounts and bots. Musk promised a purge of abandoned accounts when he first took over, and auctioning off usernames, but that went nowhere.

Apparently X currently has 561 million active users. It does not feel like that at all. I see the same accounts over and over, many of whom complain about lack of impressions and payouts.

Maybe they’re not being shadowbanned or ghosted. There’s just almost no real people using that site.

Vast majority on X are silent observers just scrolling, liking and bookmarking.

I'm considering switching to US Mobile from Verizon-- it seems way cheaper, and you can still use the Verizon network. Any downsides I should know?
hnrodey · 25 days ago
I switched over a year ago and all I can say is … it’s been excellent. $25/month per line is perfect and service is just as good as our Verizon postpaid.

One tradeoff with MVNOs is you're generally lower priority on the network.
hnrodey · 25 days ago
Priorities vary across MVNO’s. I’m not an expert but I think USM is on the better end of that priority spectrum.

Racetrack memory is an emerging alternative that might obviate the current DRAM shortage especially for datacenter use, so in a way this makes a whole lot of sense.

Good bot.

First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they attack you. Then you win.

J/k, but I still love Linux and as a family it admin, people in my sphere get pushed there.

I like Linux too. But also I can read the room.

At this point, I’d just be happy they’re switching off windows out of spite.

I’ve never been a Windows hater like some people in the industry, and have actually enjoyed and appreciated some of the weirdness and quirks from an OS perspective. I’ve also known

But man this Win11 stuff feels so fucking extreme it’s ridiculous. No I won’t use your MS account. I’d have switched over to Linux or BSD if it wasn’t for games/niche hardware (yes, I know of proton, but this is an HN thread so my personal anecdotes override your evidence)

Regular people don’t even know to be annoyed/angered by the login stuff. This is nerd maxxxxxing.

Normies that are upset with Windows will switch to macOS.

You guys are smoking crack if you think regular people are going Linux.

Cool post. One thing that rubbed me the wrong way: Their response was better than 98% of other companies when it comes to reporting vulnerabilities. Very welcoming and most of all they showed interest and addressed the issues. OP however seemed to show disdain and even combativeness towards them... which is a shame. And of course the usual sinophobia (e.g. everything Chinese is spying on you). Overall simple security design flaws but it's good to see a company that cares to fix them, even if they didn't take security seriously from the start.

Edit: typo

If all of the details in this post are to be believed, the vendor is repugnantly negligent for anything resembling customer respect, security and data privacy.

This company cannot be helped. They cannot be saved through knowledge.

See ya.

insert I'm The Captain Now meme

My hot take is that we're in a forced reset period for employers to "re-assert" their control over the labor market. The macroeconomic factors frequently mentioned plus COVID-era policies of remote work/etc are over and the execs, corporations and broader financial markets are letting us know.

This stuff runs in cycles. Nearly everything does. Your guess is as good as mine when we've reached any top or bottom of the bear market. We'll see good times again in the future. Just stick with it.

Cling to yesteryear all you want. Just remember the ship has a new captain.
