"Ask HN: How do you prevent ad-injection in AR glasses?"

Things that I haven't thought but, after seeing it, makes total sense. Scary.

2040 HN:

"Ask HN: How do you prevent ad-injection in my brain implant?"

Black Mirror episode: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_People_(Black_Mirror)

The National Lampoon did it in the early 70's.

Good to see that there's new episodes and they've still got their mojo - putting it on my list.

IIRC Asimov included this in Foundation; the poor couldn’t afford good adblockers for the implants they’d bought (in the hope of getting a better job)

I think that "Show HN: A text editor that doesn't use AI" could easily be a post here today

And it’s just a copy of notepad from windows xp.

Dave Plummer (ex Microsoft) did this on his YouTuve channel recently: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmBd39OwvWg

Would also recommend his back catalogue, if you haven't.

Given it's HN, it'd likely be emacs, vi(m), or something like acme.

"raw code" is going into my permanent lexicon.

Hot take: regular old source code is just compiler prompting.

"Playing GTA VI on a RISC-V cluster" sent me

I would be the author of the first one

Peak HN - captures it perfectly.
