I stopped reading HN a long time ago but I was thinking recently that for all the hype about coding with AI, I'm not aware of a single worthwhile project that has come out of AI assisted coding. If AI was really that good at coding assistance you would think we would be flooded with new tools and solutions and hearing about them all the time.

Does anyone know about even a single decent project that claims to be AI coded?

Their current market cap is 443B with a P/E of 50, so already massively overpriced.

For comparison, Google P/E is 20, Amazon P/E is 32, Meta P/E is 21, Microsoft P/E is 30.

They would need to more than double their profits to get to 1Tn market cap with the same joke of a price to earnings ratio. At this point I doubt that will be by doubling their customer base. It's going to be by cutting corners: paying less for shows which means lower quality shows, cutting bandwidth costs which means lower quality streams, and charging customers more for the pleasure. Classic enshittification incoming.

clearly people like it

It's the network effect that people like, just like every other social platform before it.

What a misleading headline. "You'll probably be protected," makes it sound like the method is mostly working, so don't worry about it. But that's not what the article is about at all.

It should be titled, "You'll be protected probabilistically, and most data-collectors are not telling you what the probability parameter is that they are using." The study shows that users can only make good and informed choices about their data when presented with this parameter, and an explanation of its meaning.

So if you happen to look like someone who was once suspected of shoplifting then you'll no longer be able to buy food anywhere. What could possibly go wrong.

We should have all done this about 9 years ago when it became apparent that it was being used to destabilise our democracies.

You are part of the problem.

 

A reported Free Download Manager supply chain attack redirected Linux users to a malicious Debian package repository that installed information-stealing malware.

The malware used in this campaign establishes a reverse shell to a C2 server and installs a Bash stealer that collects user data and account credentials.

Kaspersky discovered the potential supply chain compromise case while investigating suspicious domains, finding that the campaign has been underway for over three years.
