Pro by Déesse Pro Review: Mostly a Gimmick

wired.com Boutayna Chokrane 2025-11-10 17:30:00

Wearing the Pro by Déesse Pro is like cosplaying the Phantom of the Opera—if the Phantom had better LED coverage and $1,700 to spare. With 770 lights, six treatment modes, and four wavelengths, it looks like the most advanced LED mask on the market. But after six weeks of consistent use, I wouldn't recommend it. It's uncomfortable, inconvenient, and delivers results that are far less impressive than its theatrics. Missing the Basics Courtesy of Déesse Pro The Pro is a hard-shell LED mask wit

Y Combinator files brief supporting Epic Games, says store fees stifle startups

news.ycombinator.com Juli Clover 2025-11-06 20:05:37

Startup accelerator and venture capital firm Y Combinator (YC) today filed an amicus brief supporting Epic Games in Epic's continued legal fight with Apple. Y Combinator says that Apple's "anti-steering restraints" have long inhibited the growth and development of technology companies that monetize goods and services through apps. The company calls on the court to deny Apple's appeal and uphold the order that required Apple to change its App Store linking rules in the United States. Back in

Ghrc.io appears to be malicious

news.ycombinator.com Brandon Mitchell 2025-11-10 09:27:52

A simple typo of ghcr.io to ghrc.io would normally be a small goof. You’d typically get a 404 or similar error, finally work out the issue, fix it, and move along. But in this case, that typo appears to be doing something very malicious, stealing GitHub credentials. First, a quick bit of background. ghcr.io is an OCI conformant registry for container images and OCI artifacts used by a lot of projects. It’s part of GitHub and is a very popular image and artifact repository used by open source pr

Materialized views are obviously useful

August 22, 2025 As programmers we spend a lot of time shuttling data back and forth between different systems and transforming it from one format to another. Sometimes it gets pretty miserable! Let’s say you’re making a fancy task tracking app. Tasks belong to projects, and on the projects page, you want to show how many tasks are in each project.

2.5B Gmail users endangered after Google database hack

How the phishing attacks work Initial reports of attempted attacks have already been seen on Reddit, which are likely related to the data leak. Users describe how alleged Google employees have contacted them by phone to inform them of a security breach in their accounts. In these scam attempts, attackers are trying to take over Gmail accounts by triggering alleged “account resets” and then intercepting passwords to subsequently lock out the account holders.

The two versions of Parquet

news.ycombinator.com Jerónimo López 2025-11-06 08:34:32

A few days ago, the creators of DuckDB wrote the article: Query Engines: Gatekeepers of the Parquet File Format, which explained how the engines that process Parquet files as SQL tables are blocking the evolution of the format. This is because those engines are not fully supporting the latest specification, and without this support, the rest of the ecosystem has no incentive to adopt it. In my experience, this issue is not limited to Query Engines but extends to the tools within the ecosystem.

Former Meta exec Nick Clegg offers careful criticism of ‘cloyingly conformist’ Silicon Valley

techcrunch.com Anthony Ha 2025-11-10 11:32:56

In Brief Meta’s former policy chief Nick Clegg seems to be walking a tightrope as he promotes his upcoming book, “How to Save the Internet.” Unlike certain other Meta employee memoirs, “How to Save the Internet” doesn’t sound like a tell-all or a scathing critique. And in an interview with the Guardian, Clegg (who previously led the U.K.’s Liberal Democrats) seems to distance himself from Silicon Valley without quite disavowing his former employer. “I really do believe that, despite its imper

Local Restaurant Exhausted as Google AI Keeps Telling Customers About Daily Specials That Don't Exist

If you're trying to find out what a restaurant has to offer, you might look up its menu, or go to its Facebook page. Hell, you could call and ask. But that's all démodé. Why not query an AI chatbot, a piece of software notorious for inventing facts out of the tokenized ether of the internet, and treat its answer like the word of God?

Turning Claude Code into my best design partner

If the agent made mistakes, I would tell it how to fix them. For small tasks, this can be good enough, but as the task grows in complexity, this approach reveals several significant drawbacks.

Comforting a crying baby can be difficult, especially if you aren't getting enough sleep. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, playing calming sounds via a white noise machine can help soothe your baby and get them to settle down -- and give you a moment of respite. But instead of buying a white noise machine, you could save money and use your iPhone instead.

The Nintendo 64 was a fantastic console, home to generation-defining games such as Super Mario 64 and GoldenEye 007.
