    I'm not sure how much sandboxing can help here. Presumably you're giving the tool access to a repo directory, and that's where a juicy .env file can live. It will also have access …

    Google renamed Bard to Gemini last year. Side note: Google's "Gemini" product name is way overloaded. They have like 6 different things that you can buy/use that are named that.

    Besides hating immigrants and Palantir contributing to the surveillance state? Just like drug dealers, I guess someone else would do it if he weren't.

    That may be true, but that's not the news I'm exposed to. I only see him pop up every few years or so when he's announcing The Next Big Thing or trying to look/act more like a huma…

    Musk tried that once at a Dave Chappelle show. It didn't go so well for him.

    The UI/UX of Twitter has always been a dumpster fire. The non-sequential view that you get when accessing a page when not logged in is horrible.

    Ah, I was hoping (at least rough) coordinates were something that this would do. I have HA and have been looking at mmwave devices for that use case. For things like "turn on a lig…

    It seems like I'm probably preaching to the choir, but what really is the attack surface with coreutils? I can't imagine there have been a lot of pwns as a result of the `date` com…
