Fun Fact: This same sort of thing also happened on the Classic Macintosh Quadra 840AV, when running in 8-bit (256 color) mode. Playback of realtime video capture reserved color index #243 (a very dark green in the system palette), and ANYWHERE that color was used, it would be replaced with the live video. I created some cool effects using this back in the 90s.


Yes, other Mac AV models did the same thing. I remember doing this on the 6100/60AV that we had.


Are you the one who created the techno-anthem "pump up the jam"? Sweet!


Pump Up the Jam always reminds me of Philomena Cunk.

If you have Netflix, look up "Cunk on Earth". Trust me, you won't regret it.


Oh my lord, your timing is perfect. I need this so badly right now. Congrats on the launch, and wow, thank you for making your MCP containers available separately!


Haha, good thing we launched today. Thank you so much for the encouraging words!


Sorry, I am unfamiliar with ripgrep. Is this simply scanning for the string `_0x112fa8`? Could we do the same thing with normal grep -r?


yes. ripgrep just does it faster, is all.


But also respects .gitignore by default so I’m not sure you want to use ripgrep to scan your node_modules


For others who didn't know, the -u flag in the OP's command makes it so ripgrep _will_ search files even if they're gitignored


-u searches through ignored files

-uu searches through ignored and hidden files (eg dotfiles)

-uuu searches through ignored, hidden, and binary files (ie everything)


Isn't the intended behaviour of original comment checking the node_modules folder for the "infected" string.


Make it work, make it right, make it fast.

For security checks, the first 2 out of 3 is just fine.


Sure, but if you can get the last for free, why not?

I feel like you were trying to help here, but anyone can do this for themselves. Providing information in this way sort of indicates that you don't believe that the person you're replying to can do it on their own, and for that reason it's considered rude.


I was, I was also seeing if the hackernews braintrust would freak out at AI much like reddit does, so it was sort of tongue-in-cheek experiment. And freak out they did.


I see what you mean, but I actually think there is a place for copy/pasting AI responses. I think of it as a kind of cache, surely a HN comment being served to n users means less resources used and faster access than if all n did their own AI query. But then of course you don’t get exactly your preference e.g. you might prefer a terser response than what is pasted here. Interesting to see how the etiquette around this plays out over time.


If you ever wanted to share an AI response, you probably should share your prompt, not the response. But likely you should not share anything, for the reasons already explained. Your argument about saving energy makes zero sense if you have any understanding of orders of magnitude but I won't share what AI says about it.


Ironically you are being incredibly rude trying to support an argument that posting AI responses is rude. I guess we can conclude you know nothing about anything.


I never mention rudeness, I dont give a shit about random people online being "rude". It's just something I don't like, so I shared my opinion.


Still ironic. Just so you know I might have considered what you said and changed my mind, but being rude made me dismiss you immediately. Just sharing my opinion


Also, HN hates machine generated replies, especially the lengthy and overly verbose slop variety -- I think that probably eclipsed any perceived rudeness.


Title should really be "Cloud Hosting Horrors", not serverless per se.


The source is ajar.


You sure about that? I see some clear diagonal lines at 431 cols: https://imgur.com/a/rNKjTtr


Ooh, how about this as a live desktop wallpaper!


Same!

Talk to your doctor, and ask to be screened for all common cancers. A colonoscopy is in your future (I just had one). Also ask for a Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) Test. Also look into the HPV vaccine.


Don't do this. Nearly all cancer tests are overly sensitive, and not great at detecting the cancers you care about (the ones that will progress).

If you run out and get a bunch of random cancer tests, you are basically ensuring that you will get unnecessary and painful treatment for a finding that probably wouldn't have harmed you in the first place.

It's not a satisfying answer, but it's true. The reason most cancers are found late is because there's no effective alternative.


Yes. You are correct. Patent is providing bad advice about PSA

Colo , when appropriate , is good but not as a general interest test:

HPV vaccine has to be the biggest bang for buck. To anyone reading this, you should get it at any age because you likely haven't been exposed to all the strains that e.g. Gardasil-9 protects you from. You should also get it if you're male despite it being initially known as the cervical cancer vaccine because HPV causes oral cancers and you also don't want to potentially be a carrier.


Err, ASDF? What did the "F" key do? I think it used WASD, and was probably one of the very first games that did. Screenshot: https://www.mobygames.com/game/110/dark-castle/screenshots/a...
