Dude, you gotta hear about some of the stuff from Hacker News today. It was a wild mix.

First up, there's this kinda scary thing about LLMs getting poisoned (link). Turns out, you only need a tiny bit of bad data to totally mess up even huge AI models. Someone in the comments called it like a 'white noise jammer' for AI, which is kinda perfect. Makes you wonder how much junk is already in there, right? And another guy was like, 'this isn't about poisoning a chat, but more like web crawlers picking up bad code.' Yikes.

Then, for all you Python heads, Python 3.14 just dropped (link). Everyone's doing speed tests, obviously. Miguel Grinberg, the guy who wrote the article, is apparently a legend – someone even used his tutorial to build their wedding website! But yeah, the comments are all about how Python's speed often hits a wall because of the interpreter itself. Always a trade-off, I guess.

Big news for privacy too: California just passed a law (link) that lets people universally opt out of data sharing. Like, a 'do not track' on steroids. Super cool, right? But then, someone in the comments immediately brought up the dark side: what if companies just make you choose between 'pay us' or 'let us track you'? Classic.

And get this, some mad lad actually built a web framework in C (link)! Yeah, C! That's some serious low-level stuff. The comments were all over the place, mostly about how hard pointers are and how computer science classes should really start with assembly language to make people understand memory better. Kinda makes sense, actually.

Remember those Figure humanoid robots (link)? They just unveiled their third generation. People are already debating what jobs these things will take. Someone said they could be personal trainers, valets, security guards, delivery drivers – basically anything physical. But a good point was made that Moore's Law doesn't apply to physical stuff like gears and motors, so they won't get exponentially cheaper/faster like chips.

Oh, and there was some serious drama with Rubygems.org (link). Apparently, someone had root access to their AWS for a while after they were removed from the team. Super sketchy security breach. The comments are hinting it might be revenge from a former core contributor. Wild stuff, man, like a tech soap opera.

And one more quick one: a guy did a Show HN with a tiny hand-held keyboard (link) that looked pretty neat for one-handed typing. People were sharing other cool chorded keyboard ideas in the comments too. Always love seeing those niche hardware projects.

Anyway, that's the gist! Gotta run, catch ya later!
