190non A safe MySQL upgrade that wasn't so safe

I don't understand why this issue only appeared after the upgrade, not immediately after the migration to add the column?

190non Anthropic's ‘watermark’ text adulteration in Claude is a perversion of writing

> And if you copy-paste the answers from LLF, I think it's only fair the end result gets flagged. You're not writing it yourself.

I wonder if it would even get flagged in that case, because wouldn't the probability distribution of a token when the LLM is suggesting an edit to your writing be different than the distribution of that token once it is in the context of the text it's editing?

190non Bun.Image

> It's not like image manipulation is a poorly understood problem

You would think, but the initial implementation of this stripped ICC profiles (https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/30197), and while that was fixed in time for the release, it still currently doesn't understand EXIF rotation metadata (https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/30235) or high-bit-depth images (https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/30462)

190non Bun's experimental Rust rewrite hits 99.8% test compatibility on Linux x64 glibc

Almost all of Bun's tests are written in JavaScript run in Bun itself.

190non Darkbloom – Private inference on idle Macs

> PT_DENY_ATTACH

All you have to do is attach to the process before it does that, and then prevent this call from going through.

190non Claude Code's source code has been leaked via a map file in their NPM registry

It could be because of a Bun bug, but I don't think it's because of that one. It's a duplicate of a year-old issue, and it's specific to Bun.serve.

190non Flash-MoE: Running a 397B Parameter Model on a Laptop

> *2-bit quantization produces \name\ instead of "name" in JSON output, making tool calling unreliable.

I was wondering about that statement. Shouldn't it restrict sampling to only tokens that produce valid JSON matching the schema during a tool call? On the other hand, I have heard a lot about how even production LLM providers don't always call tools accurately, so I suppose either it's hard to implement what I described or there's something I haven't thought of that makes it impossible.

190non Our commitment to Windows quality

Later in the post they expand on that point:

> More direct control over updates, including the ability to pause updates for as long as you need

So it does sound like you'll be able to pause updates forever and also therefore not automatically reboot.

190non 10% of Firefox crashes are caused by bitflips

Operating systems use less RAM than Firefox.

190non The fix for a segfault that never shipped

I thought I had read this story before, and it seems like a similar account was published to this company's blog in 2023 but since taken down: https://web.archive.org/web/20250624191934/https://www.recal...

Still a good read though.
