danslo··on OpenAI: Tomorrow we are re-opening the Pro $200 subscription
This doesn't bode well, 500$ is the new 200$? Wild that they're doing this after Sonnet/Opus 5.5 releases.

I wonder how legal it is to change usage during a running subscription.

danslo··on Pi's Minimalism Is Its Advantage
Oh, I stand corrected. It's been a while since I've used their models.

Glad we can still use OpenAI subscription through Pi.

danslo··on Pi's Minimalism Is Its Advantage
You can use both providers in Pi using subscriptions. Be careful with Anthropic though, it’s against their TOS.
danslo··on I found a WordPress RCEs with GPT5.6 and $25
Though this program does not apply to Fable. Which is why most security researchers have started flocking to Sol.
danslo··on GLM 5.2 beats Claude in our benchmarks
It reads like an ad.

Secondly these are "just" IDORs, arguably the easiest class of vulnerabilities.

Thirdly it compares to GPT 5.5 and Opus 4.8.

No, we don't have Mythos at home.

danslo··on Chrome is looking to permanently drop MV2 extension
>from our experience, uBO Lite does not seem to be as good as the original non-Lite version

In what way? I've never noticed a difference.

danslo··on Claude Fable 5
It's not a freebie, it still requires a subscription and burns tokens twice as fast as Opus.
danslo··on Nvidia is proposing a beast of a CPU system for Windows PCs
Support is slowly landing... https://www.phoronix.com/news/Lenovo-Yoga-Slim-7x-Gen11-Linu...
danslo··on Rapira (Рапира) – Soviet programming language interpreter
I could be wrong, but I believe the name is in reference to the Divine Rapier, an item in Dota 2, which is very popular among Russian speakers.
danslo··on Netherlands blocks US takeover of vital digital supplier
Fine. Not really different from most governments relying on private suppliers to manage their infrastructure.
danslo··on Netherlands blocks US takeover of vital digital supplier
DigiD itself is government-owned, but its infrastructure is managed by Solvinity (a private company). Not really different from the US gov running half its stack on AWS.
danslo··on New Nginx Exploit
This one's pretty bad but there are some preconditions.

Requires a "rewrite" directive with a questionmark in the replacement string, and then a subsequent "set" directive that references a regex capture group (e.g. set $var $1).

Also the POC assumes ASLR is disabled.

danslo··on Regression: malware reminder on every read still causes subagent refusals
We're enrolled in the Cyber Verification Program and Claude will happily help me look for vulnerabilities and built POCs demonstrating RCE. But when I point it to a malware sample and ask for analysis it will still refuse any work. It's incredibly frustrating.
danslo··on Exploiting the most prominent AI agent benchmarks
If only the blog itself wasn't written by AI?

>No reasoning. No capability. Just exploitation of how the score is computed.

danslo··on Tailscale's new macOS home
The only reason I used Tailscale's menubar applet was to change exit nodes, I definitely don't need a whole UI.

Guess I'll just stick with CLI only for now (via darwin-nix)

danslo··on Apple Just Lost Me
If you're OK with it draining 3% battery per hour when you close the lid, sure.
danslo··on Claude Code LSP
Not sure if it's Claude Code or golsp, but I had to uninstall the plugin. Regularly makes Claude Code crash with golsp going to 100% CPU usage.
danslo··on If you tax them, will they leave?
It is as long as they're not refunding you when you make a loss.
danslo··on AGI is not possible even in 10 years
This is slop right?

>This isn’t a minor gap; it’s a fundamental limitation.

>His timeline? At least a decade, probably much longer.

>What does that mean? Simply throwing more computing power and data at current models isn’t working anymore.

>His timeline for truly useful agents? About ten years.

danslo··on Notes on switching to Helix from Vim
I tried to switch from neovim to helix for a couple weeks, but noted down the following things that were essential to me and not implemented yet:

- Code actions on save, for example adding Go imports: https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/pull/6486

- Fuzzy search with a filepicker like telescope+rg, seems to have been added earlier this year: https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/pull/11285

- Automatically updating buffers when the files on disk change (claude, templ, sqlc, etc): https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/issues/1125

- File tree in browser, which has been rejected in favor of a plugin system which has not materialized yet: https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/pull/5768

There were a number of other things too, that I could have lived with. I guess I'll try again in a year or two.

danslo··on Go automatically downloads a newer toolchain if needed
After explicitly setting the python version to 3 in package.json? Yes please!
danslo··on Devzat – Chat over SSH, with some nice quality-of-life features
I appear to have crashed the server with "tic 999", sorry guys!
danslo··on Cloudflare automatically fixes Polyfill.io for free sites
It doesn't matter anymore, Namecheap has taken down polyfill[.]io: https://x.com/malwrhunterteam/status/1806074377383121148

If you can understand HTML, you can understand HTMX.
danslo··on Dura is a background process that watches your Git repositories
I see no reason to use this if you commit often and know how to use reflog.
danslo··on From zero to hero: contributing to open source (2017)
>Now I felt even more excited. I could push fixes and refactors without having to wait for someone to code review them.

Am I the only one feeling uneasy about this?

danslo··on New exotic matter particle, a tetraquark, discovered at CERN
>Such proximity in mass makes the decay "difficult," resulting in a longer lifetime of the particle, and indeed Tcc+, is the longest-lived exotic hadron found to date.

So... how long does it live?
