zen browser is pretty much vibe coded

Do you have any proof/more about this? I've never heard this claim and I'd like to know more

1. Zen Browser had remote debugging enabled by default and disabled the security prompt for it. Extreme incompetence or malice? https://github.com/zen-browser/desktop/pull/927

2. Social trackers are selectively allowed, unsigned extensions are enabled by default, and Enhanced Tracking Protection isn't fully implemented.

There's just a theme of incompetence, trying to cover it up and just in general being clueless about security.

Github still refuses to switch on support for ipv6 traffic for some reason, so you can't interact with github then

There has to be a tech reason (beyond the normal) for that, right? What could it be?

Because they get no telemetry or usage data if you use a third party tool.

Just pay per token if you want to use third party tools. Stop feeling entitled to other people's stuff.

The CIA is also taxpayer funded. Do you have similar expectations of transparency into their missions?

Claude Opus 4.5 is a paradigm shift

You're comparing a language with a framework. Better comparison would be Rust (with your choices of libraries) vs Ruby (with your choices of libraries).

If you want to compare with Rails, you need to compare with battery included Rust frameworks with equivalent batteries and convention.

I literally rewrote the whole app, so I think I have a pretty great basis for comparison

Was your app converted to use some Rust framework, or just Rust?

I use Axum+SQLx and for html templates I use Maud. The plan is to move to Dioxus as a step 2

Manufacture goods from US companies? Do you mean "for"?

Honest q, 3rd party crashing in: does it make a difference? My assumption is not for parsing for understanding and grammatically, its fine, if significantly less common than the “for” construct.

I'm just trying to understand what point they are trying to make

But then you have to check that these mechanisms work regularly and manually

One thing I learned working in the industry, you have to check them when you're using AWS too.

Really? You're saying RDS backups can't be trusted?

Trusted in what sense, that they'll always work perfectly 100% of the time? No, therefore one must still check them from time to time, and it's really no different when self hosting, again, if you do it correctly.

What are some common ways that RDS backups fail to be restored?

Why are you asking me this? Are you trying to test whether I've actually used RDS before? I'm sure a quick search will find you the answer to your question.

No backup strategy can be blindly trusted. You must verify it, and also test that restores actually work.

The brand bias is heavily against Google, not in Googles favor

In context of AI I'm mostly seeing anti-OpenAI pro-Google bias.

Facts. These HN threads are half astroturfing and paid shills. Near impossible to decifer authentic takes that are not actual colleagues or people IRL

At this point he's just an anxious wreck on ketamine fully trusting a broken gut feel in each and every situation
