This is awful, but why is this on hacker news

> Now an international team, led by Flinders University, have found that in a small number of people, the immune system can accidentally confuse a normal adenovirus protein with a human blood protein termed platelet factor 4 (or PF4).

Seems to have been a legitimate, very rare, side effect

Some wild things happening with those, and infrasound. Colossus is shown 4 mins in

Hopefully not a security incident

Tbh I find self-documenting CLIs (e.g. with a `--help` flag, and printing correct usage examples when LLMs make things up) plus a skill that's auto invoked to be pretty reliable. CLIs can do OAuth dances too just fine.

MCP's remaining moats I think are:

- No-install product integrations (just paste in mcp config into app)

- Non-developer end users / no shell needed (no terminal)

- Multi-tenant auth (many users, dynamic OAuth)

- Security sandboxing (restrict what agents can do), credential sandboxing (agents never see secrets)

- Compliance/audit (structured logs, schema enforcement)?

If you're a developer building for developers though, CLI seems to be a clear winner right

Mostly, yes: https://github.com/microsoft/playwright-cli

I personally found playwright-cli, and agent-browser which wraps playwright, both more token-efficient than using the raw mcp.

Odd that this article from Dec 2025 has been posted to the top of HN though

Disney 100% has access to colorists and best in class colour grading software. It must have been a business (cost cutting) decision?

Could your processing work in a webview? i.e. webgl or webasm or similar and you communicate with it via postMessage. Something like Polygen might help with the scaffolding, but I have not tried it personally

You'd think spotify as a mature company would have had obligations to report this stuff!

I've had good experience contacting canva support in the past who've checked things with engineering teams, you should be able to contact them about their new affinity sign-in

Is enshittification truly inevitable? Perhaps, but as an occasional affinity user this is good news and I don't see a reason to spell doom just yet

I imagine enough folks will pay for the Canva account subscription to upsell - and then it's also a funnel into Canva

Plus it directly attacks Adobe's moat if a solid desktop app competitor is free
