I use the same scanner. I think it worked out of the box on Fedora 43.

I will take a position I usually never take. After a certain point in capability, practically anything has defense and national security implications. Whether it is warranted or not, I'm glad that something with ability of causing massive social impact is being treated as a national security threat. As for the point of misuse is concerned, governments by their sovereign nature always have had the propensity to control and access to secret capabilities - this is no different.

Their use of "already" at the end of the sentence + renting servers in Singapore region points more towards Singaporean and/or Chinese education.

I had this exact situation with Citrix workspace refusing to install after my upgrading to the latest Fedora. I had to force install and things did work but I would have preferred to not having to do that. I don't know enough about Homebrew to know if it would have helped (Citrix distributes .deb and .rpm files).

FTFY

I am more curious about how much token budget they have. Here I have to beg my boss for more as if he is paying from his pocket or I am using it for my hobby projects (I am not). I guess time to go back to copy/pasting to chat and doing things by hand like a caveman.

In order to get enterprise agreement you need to pay per token for Claude.

Ah; I didn't realize there was a 150 person cap to Team and I suppose paying out the ear is worth it for compliance audit. Makes sense in that regard.

> I realize that we will all eventually be forced to pay more for this and I have raised it as a real possibility to the org for budgeting scenario planning; however, for now, why would you pay by token when it's subsidized?!

Anthropic (and maybe OpenAI?) have gated all the important enterprise features behind API plus pricing in the last quarter or two.

For the code I generate and the limited way I am using it, Claude Sonnet is reliable and good.

I hope that I can someday run something very much like it locally.

The moment that happens, the AI industry is essentially useless to me. I don't need some ultra expensive "Totally better" model that does the exact same thing.

because they’re not; anthropic is pushing enterprises to switch to API/token pricing

The first wave was just getting half decent answers. The second wave was being able to choose between actually getting reasonably ok coding results OR getting not so great results very fast. The third wave would be getting good results fast.

We need to really worry when we get amazing results very fast.

My colleague vibe coded a website that looks exactly like this one. Everyone on the meeting loved it - they thought it was cool. These were IT people.

The IT people know no one's really buying just off the flashy website alone - because they don't! - and that it'll get management to okay it.

Sometimes when I see muscular guy with a head full of hair, I wonder what is counteracting that increased testosterone.

Sometimes people just have good hair and spend a lot of time in the gym.

Even early 90s famous era mass monsters were not all bald.

Baldness is known to be related to a bunch of things: testosterone levels, something to do with blood delivery to the scalp, deeper genetic factors.

Surprsingly, for some of the cases scalp massage is known to help.

Arnold still has a full head of hair for example.

increased testosterone from working out is probably around 10-30% long time, which is a far lower variance than natural level variance in healthy adults. i think i heard from several (claimed natural) strength and bodybuilding athletes that their total testosterone is at the lower end of the scale.

that said, natural free test levels are at a fraction of what enhanced pro bodybuilders tend to supplement, and there are mass monsters with hair. cutler, yates, ferrigno and golden era bodybuilders like schwarzenegger, zane, columbu all had full heads of hair.

Yeah, wanted to point this out. I have mid-range natural test levels, more than my dad, and don't have any signs of balding. My dad lost half of his hair by the time i was born.

Steroid consumers have al least ten times my leves, and while this is a factor indeed, in is not necessarily decisive.

The comments here are unfortunately reddit-level of (in)correctness, but if you really want to know: testosterone doesn't affect your hair in any way, what does affect it is DHT which is synthesized from testosterone by your body with 5α-Reductase and the way to significantly dial down that process is to take 5α-Reductase inhibitors (widely available and affordable medications).

That means maybe the people with great muscles and good hair have a genetic mutation that reduces the efficiency of DHT synthesis? I am assuming DHT doesn't affect muscle growth.

Firstly, "working out increases your T bro" is reddit-tier simplified. For example, if you are shredded, your testosterone (especially free testosterone due to higher SHBG) can be lower than normal. Just because someone is muscular doesn't mean they have a naturally high T.

Secondly, yes, someone might have just won a genetic lottery but 5α-Reductase inhibitors are quite popular these days.

Not what you want to hear, but genes, probably ...

Probably. Money seems to help too, though. A few Hollywood actors have miraculously reversed their male pattern baldness.

Hair transplants are probably affordable enough for 90% of people on HN.

Along with at least one tech billionaire.

Yeah I think that is the biggest factor. I got family members that are built like brick shithouse from a life since childhood of physical labor that still have their hair into their 70s, there is no way they weren't maintaining high levels of testosterone their entire life but it didn't seem to matter.

I would have thought so too. Also, I have heard oily scalp and stress to be factors detrimental to good hair but but not sure if they actually are.

Probably some combination of Minoxidil, Finastride, PRP injections, and hair transplants.

Scalp massages. No seriously

What kind of massages? I'm curious of this really works.

Not sure about the "kind", but minoxidil works by increasing blood flow to hair follicles. So if massages can have a similar effect, I don't see why it couldn't help.

I've also read that maybe massaging the muscles around the scalp to loosen it might help. E.g., a scalp that's too tight can have detrimental effects on the hair follicles.

That being said, I don't know what kind of evidence there is to support either of those things. Seems like a safe enough thing to try though.

I am the same. Most my projects were infra leaning and I had a very general idea of what I wanted, not clear steps. I learned a ton in the process of cleaning up my home networking, understood network topology and restrictions, how to work around ISP imposed bullshit and setup a home network accessible remotely and securely. I also learned about stacks like Portainer/Adguard etc. Setting up Raspberry pi as a general purpose server including media serving via Jellyfin. Until you do it, even with the LLM doing the heavy lifting, you won't learn how to work around the issues.

I setup exactly one personal finance service/dashboard and one Android app for a specific purpose. Then I stopped because my needs were met. I'm sure I will get into it when I need to again.

You can either use it as a PoC testing enabler in which case it will be bunch of unfinished things. Or you can be deliberate and focused about your goals and the results will match that. Of course being a software developer helps.
