Of course, we could press the fix this immediately button by requiring acetaminophen to be sold mixed with NAC but that would be too easy.

Semantic ablation: Why AI writing is generic and boring https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47049088
The Singularity will occur on a Tuesday https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46962996
The singularity will occur on a tuesday received thousands of votes. It wasn't bad but I'd have preferred less AI fluff around the fun modelling.
Why's this so prevalent here?
So many AI generated AI bashing articles lately. I wrote a post complaining about running into these, and asking people who've sent me these AI articles multiple of them came from HN. https://lunnova.dev/articles/ai-bashing-ai-slop/
`device_grouped_conv2d_fwd_xdl_ngchw_gkcyx_ngkhw_f16_instance`, what are you doing to our poor friend clang?
Sites choosing to replace password login with initiating the login process and then clicking a "magic link" in your email client is awful for developing good habits here, or for giving good general advice. :c
If you pay attention to who says it, you'll find that people have different personal thresholds for finding llms useful, not that any given person like steveklabnik above keeps flip-flopping on their view.
This is a variant on the goomba fallacy: https://englishinprogress.net/gen-z-slang/goomba-fallacy-exp...

It has certainly negatively polarized people against any form of safety near AI.
Would you require the FSF to accept a sponsorship from anyone and to advertise them in return?
Due to design issues relating to implicit sync with wayland any misbehaving app can cause your entire desktop to drop frames so if you're a multi monitor user expect stutters when the browser you have open in the background was a little too slow. Or worse if an app is badly broken [1]
The good news is that all of this is fixable. Windows has forced compositing for most cases and it performs much more consistently. A browser taking a while to render can't hang unrelated windows' composition. Wayland compositors can get there too eventually by moving to explicit sync APIs [2].
For now if you do care about these issues staying on compositorless X is the least bad option.

* genuine key, user does something fine that trips a heuristic
* genuine key, user's device is compromised
In either of these cases removing the key is making the account less secure. Google also removed all the keys associated with the account instead of just the key that was used.
Having a yubikey physically stolen and also knowing the details to log in with seems like it should be very rare.
If they're going to have a process that removes the keys they need to be so confident that they lock the account and go through some sort of IDV process to turn it back on. Removing the keys and leaving you with just a password that you just set up on the device that just logged in using the key is obviously not the right approach if you think the key's compromised because the password's just as compromised.
:P
Googling "google one phone number" did show me a potential scam result in the infobox at "gooogle-live-personn" on google sites that obviously isn't official. You can't make this stuff up.
I don't use lastpass, but if I did I wouldn't have to because this "Just to be safe" process also reset/removed the recovery keys.
If google had working support flows I would not have written this up or posted here about it.
A few years back I lost access to a different google account as the recovery phone number was a landline and google was trying to send SMS messsages to it. I had the right password but it thought I was suspicious and insisted on SMS verification. I never managed to reach a human to get something done about the issue.
From the audit log in my email no new keys were added before this was tripped.
I am not using a VPN and as far as I know I am not doing anything unusual. I might be committing the crime of having a Linux Firefox user agent but I somewhat doubt that was the problem, that's not that unusual.
