Goofy edge cases aside, I think f-strings are great.

Pangram isn't useful for single documents. Too many false positives. It only gives something approaching actionable results if you use it on an entire corpus.

Couldn't GitHub detect a Shai-Hulud exfil repo being created and just... block it? Given that it's a worm, the attacker wouldn't be able to adapt all that quickly.

That employee listing is still wide open: https://worldcup.tldv.io/api/entities/Player I wonder if someone has already dumped the full set of meetings by now. One correction, thoug…

I liked that. I don't have a lot of good things to say about GitHub these days -- Microsoft has not been a kind owner -- so I found that moment of silliness encouraging.

This is a bizarre take.

You can't make a "clean hashed copy" of hardware.

This is probably fine for evading local cops. I'll also note that anyone plugging this into a forensics machine is going to have a bit of a dilemma: Perform write tests, or not? Be…

Yeah, I've had multiple GoPros die in multiple ways, and way too quickly. They're just really poor quality and aren't suited for vibration, heat, cold, etc. -- exactly the things a…

Cities in the US can pass laws. They're called local ordinances: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_ordinance#United_States

Where it helps is in finding out if it's even the image you wanted. You get a sense of it from the fast first pass, and then can hit back if it's not the thing you thought it was.

They'll never admit it.

Do what people did before there were LLMs: Just post the data and some quick notes. It's fine, people appreciate the brevity. Disclosing is great, but not as good as just using you…

I did not say that all prisoners are slaves. I said that it would be legal to enslave them.

I did not say that prisoners are slaves. I said that it is legal to enslave them.

Correction: The US still has not abolished slavery. It is still legal in the case of prisoners: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thirteenth_Amendment_to_the_Un...

Any jurisdiction can pass a law unless there's a law against doing so. For example, you couldn't do this in Massachusetts. A city would first have to petition the state for a new l…

I ended up having to dispute credit card charges from Patreon because I couldn't solve captchas needed to log in or to talk to support. I won, but it was an annoying process, and n…

By antifragile, do you mean fragile?

That's a bad use of a very expensive phone. Get an actual dumb phone that's vastly cheaper. > what if he gets lost? Then he can look at street signs, ask someone nearby for directi…

Sounds more like what he had to survive was the sheer boredom.

Man, what's going on with this site that makes every phrase "North Korea" into a link about playing golf there? Some kind of self-link-auto-enhancement plugin gone nuts?

Yeah, I can imagine that there might be some esoteric situation where this becomes problematic but it's really not clear what it would be. I like your vastly simpler reproduction o…

Sure, what you're describing should be relatively safe from prompt injection. It's a lot less capable than the original, of course. I'm not saying "it's impossible to get an LLM to…

Sure. But that's not what was being suggested in the comment I responded to. (There are also problems with what you're suggesting, though, such as the summary report still being ri…
