Did anyone notice that anonymous donators[1] have the picture of Larry David, and the link points to the Curb Your Enthusiasm - Anonymous Donor Pt2[2] episode?

So geeky, so cool !

I've notice there is "merde" method which is available in the example like in https://github.com/bnjbvr/rouille/blob/7e9523fe24026bff1a3a7...

Merde is an alias for "calisse" and "oups" , see https://github.com/bnjbvr/rouille/blob/7e9523fe24026bff1a3a7...

> I'm afraid this will be the future, as these AI-browsers do truly bring value. But they open up the gate for a single Big Tech Winner that truly knows everything about you, and can even control everything on your behalf.

Oooh boy, thanks, but no thanks. I don't want a BitTech to know everything about me and my browsing habit.

Yet I wonder how these browser behave when you are visiting your Friday night porn site?

Also, your comment made me think about the fact that free AI is dead in a near feature because it probably is economically unsustainable. Consequently, pay to browse might around the corner. Or ..., like for the for all those social networks, we all be the product. Is AI powered browsers the dead of our freedom ?

A hackernews clone, using sqlite3, nestjs for the backend and svelte5/sveltekit/flowbyte svelte/tailwindcss for the frontend.

I must say it has been more challenging than what I though it would be, specially if you are looking to put it onto production. I'm doing it for fun though.

Nothing published yet, I'm not sure if it will ever be. What do you think ?

If you look at Mistral investors[0], you will quickly understand that Mistral is far from being European. My understanding is it is mainly owned by US companies with a few other companies from EU and other places in the world.

> Of particular concern, WithSecure Threat Intelligence identified a successful campaign, spanning at least 8 months, where legitimate source code of the popular open-source password manager tool ‘KeePass’ had been modified, and recompiled with trusted certificates.

My understanding is that if you don't pay particularly care to where you get your KeePass from, you can be tricked into downloading and installing a keepass from perfectly valid installer, potentially leaking all your passwords to the attackers.

I don't know if using open source projects with recompiled sources and valid trusted certificate is a common vector of attack but WithSecure reports that it has been installed a number of times across several of their customers.

Then comes the question of what is a correct response...

ps: I fail to detect whether your comment was ironic or not.
