PII isn’t limited to SSNs. By your logic, First name can’t be PII, and last name with no accompanying info wouldn’t be PII. Different types of data have different risk profiles. When multiple records about an individual are collected the risk grows exponentially. Location is absolutely PII when combined with other risky data, like license plate.


What % of the time do you think the die-hard gamers live a healthy lifestyle? I’m thinking it’s higher than my knee jerk reaction, like 40-50%, but an important consideration. Of course people define “healthy” differently too, but obesity and mental health crises have objectively grown and correlate with rising technology use.


This is a hard one for me to ballpark because all my gaming friends are gym rats, so my view is probably skewed. Some of them game hours every day and make time for gym and nutrition. Unsure of there other health needs though.

I think it's much harder to be healthy when 6+hrs of your day is gaming. Especially if you also have work. It takes time to eat healthy, excercise, get out into the sun and be social. At some point you must be making compromises to game 6hrs a day.


Can confirm — itsa me


Can't scroll, Cookies disclaimer doesn't work in firefox with ublock origin :(


That's why I always incognito. Sure, I accept your cookies. They're gone in a few hours anyway


reader mode?


So far the only thing I’ve noticed is that it made me confirm that it should do a 10 minute task “manually” because it “would take 2 or 3 hours”

It was a context merging task for my unorganized collection of agents… it sort of made sense, but was the exact reason I was asking it to do it… like you’re the bot, lol


Excited to try Claude agents sdk though


I almost always copy this by double clicking after the `/` in the URL


Gitlab has killed this with their slide in issues. If you have an issue open, and you copy the address, it's just a huge unique ID context thing. So you have to scroll to the top and use the little copy link button at the top of the page.


Enter, stage left, ServiceNow hell urls


+1, I have a c4ai docker container + brave search MCP (2000 queries/mo free!) running on my laptop so I can ask claude code to do research similar to GPT deep research, but I config to ignore robots.txt since it's a one-off instance collecting data on my personal behalf, not a service (At least that's how I justify it)


What is c4ai? Crawl4ai?


Yes~


Thank you for the feedback!

> The “question” - is a statement at the top in smaller italic type

That's context to the question

> Why one option has a heart on it?

That's the question, the answers are below it. There are different categories of questions, the emoji changes based on the category

I can probably just add labels overlapping/replacing the box outline and have it look pretty nice

> Is “simulation” questions and answers?

Yup, that's the gimmick!

> Unfortunately, in the world of software there are bad actors that bundle malware with their apps. Even so, Homebrew Cask has long decided it will not be an active gatekeeper (macOS already has one) and users are expected to know about the software they are installing. This means we will not always remove casks that link to these apps, in part because there is no clear line between useful app, potentially unwanted program, and the different shades of malware—what is useful to one user may be seen as malicious by another.

So there might be pull requests, but Brew's official stance is that they do not actively moderate casks for malware. I guess there's something built into the MacOS packaging step that help mitigate the risk, but I don't know much about it outside playing w/ app development in XCode.
