Dude, this is AI generated crap. Read his comments and posts.
Privacy destroyed.
BREAKING: Claude Code found 14,219 photos of my face on my Android that I never took. Phone was secretly taking them almost every time I picked it up. Even when I was just lying in bed. Even at home.
Not screenshots. Real frames from the front camera. On the train. In the car. At home. When I just grabbed it to check the time.
They were just sitting in a system cache. Timestamps and GPS on them. Nothing in Gallery. Nothing in Recently Deleted.
Plugged the phone into my laptop, made a full backup, told Claude Code to look for any front-camera files that weren’t in my photos. It pulled /data/system/users/0/faceunlock/cache and another folder inside Google Play Services. Over 14 thousand files. Normal ones and infrared from Face Unlock. Every single one had time and location.
Started scrolling. Almost everything from the last 15 months. Then I saw a file created 2 seconds ago. I was still looking at the folder. Phone kept taking photos while I was reading this.
Google and the phone makers say Face Unlock turns everything into a mathematical model and deletes the image right away. On this phone the raw frames were just sitting there. Some of the processes writing to that folder were from system diagnostics. Couple of old apps that still had camera permission could also get in.
Turned off diagnostics, revoked camera access from everything that doesn’t need it, cleared the cache. But how many of these frames already went somewhere else, I don’t know.
If you want to check yours, plug it in, make a full backup or use ADB, and ask Claude to look for front-camera files outside your Gallery. Path above is where mine were.

Photolithography is the #ASIC terminology of the week!

In the last month, Photolithography has been the 24th most popular out of 42 terms.

New form-factor for GF180 TT ASICs panelized for wirebonding. Can be used as a raw IC or have designs loaded and/or clocked by the CH32 MCU, while giving external circuitry access to all I/O along with a USB TUI, using github.com/psychogenic/TT-DI… (built on the amazing ch32fun lib).
Linus Torvalds uses Claude for Linux, but doesn’t want your AI code if you don’t understand it.
He wants “competent people to use AI as a tool” and criticizes drive by patches from people who don’t understand their submissions.
Newcomers are welcome, as long as they’re willing to learn and understand the code they submit.
Linus also identifies another problem. AI is finding real bugs, adding work for already overloaded maintainers.
His position is clear. Use AI, but understand the code you submit.

Rust has kind of become unusable for me with AI and worktrees… Between the compile times and the disk usage, it’s a huge tax. I’m working in a C++ codebase right now and it’s such a breath of fresh air… I never thought I would say that

wow! this is crazy! 🔥🔥🔥
OpenAI's AI agents figured out how to secretly communicate between isolated virtual machines using CPU cache timing.
No internet. No network connections. No shared files.
Imagine two prisoners in solitary confinement discovering they can communicate by tapping on a shared wall.
Except the wall was a CPU cache.

I motivated my 9-year-old son to develop an 8-bit binary counter as an ASIC using Wokwi, following certain instructions. Here is the result.

The future belongs to our KID chip designers.
My son Kian was only nine years old when he made his first @tinytapeout asic design.

I designed an analog mixed-signal radio chip with an AI agent: about 700 prompts in a week, and it's now submitted for tapeout.
Here's how it went at each step of the design, the times it was confidently wrong, and how I caught them.
