    But AAPL has a big weight on the market/indices.

    Apple stock is down more than 4% right now. That is a big dump for such a blue chip stock. IDK if it is due to this EU ban or Apple choice of going with Gemini (instead of making t…

    Is there any proposed timeline for a stable release? Big features like the recent async IO shows the language is very unstable right now.

    It is an inherent limitation. Multithreading is not free after all. One of the big pros of async programming is the concurrency you get within a single thread. When you make the as…

    Python 3.10 is only used for the exploit. You can easily rewrite it for 3.8 as well. The vulnerability itself does not require Python at all.

    Of course, but it does not matter as the entire AF_ALG module is forbidden by SELinux anyway (on Android).

    I tried this exploit on Android and it looks like you need root in the first place to create an AF_ALG socket. I guess it is an SELinux policy to disable AF_ALG entirely.

    To even get the su binary on Android you have to patch the OS. So this exploit can't work on Android. Because there is no su binary to target. Update: Just tried it on Termux and a…

    If you present ELIZA to people some will think it is AGI today. There is a reason so many scams happen with technology. It is too easy to fool people.

    AI hysteria has gone too far. People are literally telling stories of what AI may be capable of in the future and whipping themselves into a frenzy.
