Not to worry, the security problems were patched out (with the help of "grumpy-AI", of course): https://gitlab.com/g33kphr33k/musicgrabber/-/commit/a1cb0c0e...

AI video and art is going to be increasingly used in advertising, news/reporting, games, etc. Therefore, you aren't allowed to hate it or even complain about it. Right?

>I do have a suggestion for your app though: Have it compare your basket of goods across different markets in your region to show you the cheapest option.

I'd settle for just being able to sort items by unit price... I'm sure this is a [regulation-]solved problem in Germany though

What do you mean? The official REWE app and website provide just that.

> I'm sure this is a [regulation-]solved problem in Germany though

Not sure what you mean by that.


Sorry, yes, I'm not German and haven't used it. It was an idle complaint about how trying to use grocery store (or other similar) sites is difficult because they prevent you from being able to sort properly, for example by unit price. Sometimes they change the displayed unit per product so you also have to convert them to compare manually (less of a problem for metric, but like, drink brand 1 €2/100ml, drink brand 2 €13/1L etc).

As I was writing it, I realized that this kind of tactic just feels like it would be banned in Germany


Stores are required by law to provide the price per unit/weight/volume alongside the price, so you can directly compare the price of a pint of beer to the 0.33 liter bottle without calculating anything.

Ah thanks, didn't think about that.

I just checked and REWE only lets you sort by absolute price. But honestly, you can compare prices so much better on their website than in a physical supermarket already [0].

[0] https://www.rewe.de/shop/c/frisches-obst/?sorting=PRICE_DESC You have to enter a random zip code eg 20249


there is this "400g (1 kg = 3,48 €)" - would be pretty easy to sort results by that I'd guess, good idea!

I've heard similar things before. Frying a veggie burger in bacon grease to sneakily feed someone meat/meat-byproducts who does not want to eat it, like a vegan or a person following certain religious observances. As in, it's not ok to do this even if you think their beliefs are stupid.

>It's useful context unless you've gone over the generated code and understand it and it is the same quality as if you wrote it yourself

I thought the argument was that AI-users were reviewing and understanding all of the code?


    // [umbrella] Describe skill 1. (Prompt engineering)

Another user posted this article earlier https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/03/introspection-andr... which was interesting

You can do it with forgejo, just have to self-host the runners

I am excited about its potential integration with jujutsu: https://codeberg.org/forgejo/discussions/issues/325

True, but think of how many new successfully closed PRs will be created as a result of this ~~incident~~ opportunity. Exponential KPI growth!

"Security" is often more about corporate CYA than improving my actual security as a user, and sometimes in opposition, and there is often blatant disregard for any UX concession at all. The most secure system is fully encrypted with all copies of the encryption key erased.
