Is that hyperbole or do you know of a specific "AI website" that uses 100% of your CPU?

Thank you for the clarification. Not sure if it was the author's intent but they made it sound like .name will cease to exist.

No they didn't. The only way to interpret it that way is to only read the title (i.e., be a typical HN denizen) and stop there, not even getting to

> On 15 April 2026 Verisign proposed the destruction of the entire 3rd level of the '.name' hierarchy in order to simplify their administration.


Perhaps, but there are certainly now catchphrases and words that can indicate it was written with AI i.e. load-bearing, idempotent, etc. Style and structure are in and of themselves, a fingerprint.


idempotent was frequently used before LLM; it's hard to talk about REST and infrastructure as code without using that word...


But can my daughter, who has a Managed Account, use this?


For that, there's ProTube[1]. On the surface it behaves like YouTube Premium, under the hood it's just the mobile version of YouTube bundled into an iOS app. I have no idea why ads aren't served, I analyzed the network requests with Fiddler Everywhere and saw nothing nefarious.

For android users: NewPipe (others exist too)

It's web scraping, and occasionally falls behind yt changes (2 years ago it was unusable for about a month). It could be described as an arms race, but Google appears to suffer it to live.

I suppose they understand that zero is not the optimal corruption target. (Because, as you asymptotically approach total control, the user cost also rises asymptotically.)


Why not use YouTube in Safari then? Haven't seen ads in years. Plenty of options to block them already.


Does YouTube in Safari play in background/with the screen off?


I like "Vinegar - Tube Cleaner" for this.

It's not a perfect solution - I have occasionally noticed it leading to some buggy behaviour in the YouTube/YouTube Music sites using Safari, but nothing anywhere near as bad as using those websites without it!

The only odd behaviour I can call to mind was one time that it continued playing audio when I answered a phone call. It was easy to stop the music playing, and the other person on the call couldn't hear the music. I was actually disappointed that the other person couldn't hear the music, and I've been disappointed every time I've taken a phone call since and the music hasn't continued playing. I wish that was a feature :)

I think Vinegar was well worth the small one-time price, and I like supporting the developer. I've heard that Brave allows playing with the screen off, but I like my setup enough that I don't want to install Brave just for that.


I’m doing it right now. It does pause when you switch away from safari but you swipe down to get the control center and then resume play.


I use yPlayer for that, plus SponsorBlock


Holy crap I didn't know such a thing could exist, thank you. It's so responsive too.

Please delete this before anyone sees it :)


do we really need breaking news about qwen posted every single day?


If there’s news, then yes. This is a pretty great new release for those still stuck on Qwen3.6 35B A3B if they have enough memory but don’t have super powerful compute.

I wonder if I could get this running through vLLM on 6x Nvidia L4 - the 3.6 worked great on 4 cards but sadly TP6 just isn’t a thing and I don’t have 8 cards available, maybe it’s gonna be okay with like TP2 and MTP. I have no idea at this time, probably need to test out what even might be possible.


This particular release is interesting because it's a preview of qwen4 architecture. And, while benchmarks are iffy, this is a direct comparison, by the same team, with qwen3.8-27b that was pretty well received for a local model.

This "next" release adds a new concept, first public release with n-grams, I think. And it's in a MoE size that is likely to be very fast and cheap to serve (faster than 27b for sure). It's also well suited for inference on alternative compute (i.e. sparks, macs, etc) so it's relevant to local users.


I and presumably quite a few others with AMD AI or Apple Mac platforms are very impacted by this.

:)

It is very relevant and for a certain group of us, far more impactful to our work the next month(s) than any blog post could be.


this is a new architecture (foreshadowing qwen 4)

There are many topics, personalities and politicians we hear about daily who have no merit.

Qwen's advances do (currently) have merit.


This actually is meaningful news, I think. Pretty wide audience appeal in the local LLM space too.


yes there’s no shortage of online real estate


to be honest, having to walk inside to use the bathroom or refill your cup of coffee seems like a nice way to stand up and get the blood flowing again + breathe some fresh air.


What was the question?


Does a set of all sets contain itself?


(effort: high)

"can the pi 4 use the usb-c port as powered host port when the board is powered via gpio?"


Umm shouldn't that be "search the web and read the docs for pi4 to answer: ..."?


Weird then that they don't get it all correct.


All of my childhood friends who bragged about being good at GH/RB only ever bragged about being good at the _games_. Never ran in to someone trying to pass it off as being able to play the guitar.


Anecdata, friend. Two old friends became extraordinarily good at guitar hero and even won competitions. They're also some of the best guitar players I know. One of them is an extremely good drummer and can do improv piano like a beast. They'd both agree that guitar hero helped them play better.

What are your thoughts on games like Keyboard Hero?


Are we comparing nuclear energy to an LLM?
