Solid protocol restores digital agency

news.ycombinator.com Bruce Schneier 2025-12-25 16:32:50

How Solid Protocol Restores Digital Agency The current state of digital identity is a mess. Your personal information is scattered across hundreds of locations: social media companies, IoT companies, government agencies, websites you have accounts on, and data brokers you’ve never heard of. These entities collect, store, and trade your data, often without your knowledge or consent. It’s both redundant and inconsistent. You have hundreds, maybe thousands, of fragmented digital profiles that ofte

Obligatory: the views and opinions expressed in this post are my own and do not represent the views and opinions of my employer. In light of all the hype going around about ChatGPT, I wanted to offer my “hot take” on what the next 2-5 years of the web look like. One aspect of the rise of generative models that isn’t getting the right amount of attention is the long-term effects on the information economy.

AI Is Taking Over Your Search Engine. Here's a Look Under the Hood

For decades, the way we find information on the internet changed only in small ways. Doing a traditional Google search today doesn't feel all that different from when, in the 1990s, you would Ask Jeeves. Sure, a lot has changed under the hood, the results are likely far more relevant and the interface has some new features, but you're still typing in keywords and getting a list of websites that might hold the answer.

DJI couldn't confirm or deny it disguised this drone to evade a US ban

But on Amazon, you can now buy a drone that’s a a dead ringer for the DJI Mini 4 Pro — the SkyRover X1 — for a reasonable $758. And that’s probably because DJI made it happen.

The Age-Checked Internet Has Arrived

Beginning today, millions of adults trying to access pornography in the United Kingdom will be required to prove that they are over the age of 18. Under sweeping new online child safety laws coming into force, self-reporting checkboxes that allow anyone to claim adulthood on porn websites will be replaced by age-estimating face scans, ID document uploads, credit card checks, and more. Some of the biggest porn websites—including Pornhub and YouPorn—have said that they will comply with the new rul

How I fixed Gemini’s biggest flaw with one simple sentence

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-01-04 05:30:01

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority It’s a known fact that ChatGPT, Gemini, and most AI chatbots hallucinate answers sometimes. They make up things out of thin air, lie to please you, and contort their answers the moment you challenge them. Although those are becoming more rare instances, they still happen, and they completely ruin trust. If I never know when Gemini is saying the truth and when it’s lying to me, what’s the point of even using it? That’s why I mostly gravitate towards Perplexity

Radical New Theory Rewrites the Story of the Earliest Universe

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2026-01-11 11:05:38

Following the Big Bang, our universe expanded at an exponential rate. According to this theory, known as cosmic inflation, the explosive growth produced tiny quantum fluctuations that later evolved into galaxies. Cosmic inflation neatly explains how our universe got so large and mostly homogenous, and that’s why it’s remained a strong theory in cosmology for decades. But it’s far from perfect. Cosmic inflation depends on certain theoretical assumptions that can get rather arbitrary—not ideal fo
