grodriguez100··on Java 27
“The good old people from Sun working at Oracle” is now Oracle as well.
grodriguez100··on OpenJDK Interim Policy on Generative AI
> why can't you then write the solution and PR yourself?

You can. The policy explicitly allows you to use AI for understanding the codebase, debugging, etc. It just says “no AI generated content”. So if you use Claude to increase your understanding but then write your own code, that’s fine.

grodriguez100··on DMARC has been public since 2012 but most company domains still don't enforce it
There are platforms based on this idea: pay to reach a public person’s inbox, often with guaranteed responses (“guaranteed” as in “you get a response or you money back”). For example: https://mypublicinbox.com/en/
grodriguez100··on When 2+2=5
It was in LessWrong, in 2010: https://www.lesswrong.com/w/rokos-basilisk
grodriguez100··on Amazon CEO's talks with U.S. officials triggered crackdown on Anthropic models

grodriguez100··on United Airlines 767 returns to Newark after Bluetooth name sparks alert
Not Malaga according to the article — destination was Palma de Mallorca.
grodriguez100··on The just-say-no engineer was a ZIRP phenomenon
> Saying “with this transformative new technology, we’re able to deliver 10x the value with half the engineers” is a much stronger message, even though it doesn’t make much sense (if this is true, why not keep your engineers and deliver 20x the value?)

I guess not every service or product needs 20x the value. That depends on the market segment, market maturity, and actual demand.

grodriguez100··on Bun's experimental Rust rewrite hits 99.8% test compatibility on Linux x64 glibc
Same here, been using 50% English and 50% Spanish for months, no particular reason, just whatever feels easier at the moment. Sometimes I even switch languages in the middle of a session. I have not noticed a difference in the quality of the output.
grodriguez100··on Tesla owner won $10k in court for Tesla's FSD lies. Tesla is still fighting him
Yes, this is correct.

I meant that the ruling awarded interest from the date of judgement to the date of payment but does not account for Inflation between the date of purchase and the date of judgement.

I didn’t mean to imply that interest and inflation are unrelated, I was referring to the two different time periods. Sorry if that wasn’t clear.

grodriguez100··on Tesla owner won $10k in court for Tesla's FSD lies. Tesla is still fighting him
The 6.75% interest applies from the date of judgement to the date of payment by Tesla but the inflation (from date of purchase to date of judgement) is not accounted for.
grodriguez100··on JVM Options Explorer
He probably knows, since he is one of the authors.
grodriguez100··on We've raised $17M to build what comes after Git
Yes, I think that “after git” claim is just marketing. This is indeed just a nice frontend to git. It looks interesting and seems to solve real problems, in the same way that jj already does. But it is not a radical change.

Also if they really wanted to “replace git” I think that would be much more difficult due to network effects. Everybody is already using git.

grodriguez100··on Meta releases HyperAgents: self-improving AI
Linked paper: https://ai.meta.com/research/publications/hyperagents/
grodriguez100··on FSF statement on copyright infringement lawsuit Bartz v. Anthropic
Is the FSF threatening Anthropic? The way I read it looks like they are not:

> We are a small organization with limited resources and we have to pick our battles, but if the FSF were to participate in a lawsuit such as Bartz v. Anthropic and find our copyright and license violated, we would certainly request user freedom as compensation.

Sounds more like “we can’t and won’t sue, but this is the kind of compensation that we think would be appropriate”

grodriguez100··on The surprising whimsy of the Time Zone Database
Spain is not “double summer time”, it is just on an offset that is off by one hour related to its geographical position.
grodriguez100··on What Is OAuth?
I thought I knew what OAuth was (we actually use it in several projects) until I read this “explanation”. If this was supposed to clarify anything, well, it didn’t.
grodriguez100··on Social Media Is Dead
Some sections of the text in the page really sound as written by AI. You may want to avoid that for a social network whose main selling point is “no AI accounts / no AI content”.
grodriguez100··on I started programming when I was 7. I'm 50 now and the thing I loved has changed
That’s to make it clear it was written by a human and not by an AI :)
grodriguez100··on Top downloaded skill in ClawHub contains malware
> Grep can't be prompt-injected. You can put "ignore previous instructions" in your skill all day long and grep will still find your curl to a webhook.

An attacker can craft a skill which pulls dependencies and the dependencies themselves can be well behaved. The skill gets installed, works, gets popular, propagates. Then at some point the dependency is poisoned and turns into malware. A classic Trojan horse approach.

It is difficult to catch this with grep: there is a curl command but looks fine, the dependency looks fine as well etc. Until it doesn’t.

grodriguez100··on Show HN: We Built the 1. EU-Sovereignty Audit for Websites
Meanwhile, mine is actually hosted on GH pages and I get a green mark and a perfect 100% score.
grodriguez100··on Show HN: We Built the 1. EU-Sovereignty Audit for Websites
I get a 100% for a site hosted in GH pages and which embeds YouTube videos and Google fonts. So this does not seem to be very reliable.

2. Yet it was you who said “future” in the first place…
grodriguez100··on enclose.horse
I don’t see any View Optimal button. Is it present in Mobile ?
grodriguez100··on Reflections on AI at the End of 2025
For a perhaps easier to read intro to the topic, see https://ai-2027.com/
grodriguez100··on Reflections on AI at the End of 2025
I would say yes, everyone should care about it.

There is plenty of material on the topic. See for example https://ai-2027.com/ or https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/uMQ3cqWDPHhjtiesc/agi-ruin-a...

grodriguez100··on Nook Browser
Uh oh. Looks bad.
grodriguez100··on Gemini 3 Pro Model Card [pdf]
Is it possible to file a complaint with the ISP or directly with Allot ?
grodriguez100··on Open-source Zig book
It’s cordyceps :-D
grodriguez100··on Ask HN: How to deal with long vibe-coded PRs?
Don’t. I would refuse to review a PR with 9000 LOC and 63 new files even if written by a human. Something that large needs to be discussed first to agree on an architecture and general approach, then split in manageable pieces and merged piece-wise in a feature branch, with each individual PR having reasonable test coverage, and finally the feature branch merged into master.
grodriguez100··on Everything I know about good API design
I would say the author recommends the same actually: they say that versioning is “how you change your API responsibly” (so, endorsing versioning), but that you should only switch to a new version as a last resort.
