So confusing how holding people in confinement, starving them, and selling their labor to others without compensation gets people tossing the word "slavery" around. Obviously it's …

It's not that nobody likes it, in fact the problem is that people like each instance of it well enough in isolation. Millions of people think it's "good enough," so it gets amplifi…

The proposed bill would still allow you to choose to be on-call. Your boss just has to compensate you for your time explicitly when it falls outside of agreed hours, instead of get…

Presumably Suzie also serves the people in her community who want tanned skin but don't like the sun. A data center offers nothing of value to the community it's embedded in - neit…

No one is "making things insecure" here - it was already hopelessly insecure by design. The author is just revealing the uncomfortable truth.

> ensure this doesn't happen again with more deliberate and effective prompt injection How can this possibly be accomplished? Even if every actor in the open source world with good…

The project README has explicitly asked users not to use LLMs for years before adding this "malware" to the output. Since LLM users seem incapable of understanding consent, apparen…

As mentioned in another comment, it's even more clear cut in this case. They actually put the original git sources in their project repo and instructed the agent to use it as the "…

You consider it a malfunction for your system to not accept and execute untrusted inputs? And now it's the responsibility of _every program that produces text output_ to tailor the…

Unfortunately, it seems that few of the people willing to pay money for software development actually care whether you understand the code or not. Unless it breaks in a publicly em…

Parallels is quite good - I can watch 4K YouTube videos at 60fps with no noticeable frame drops on an M1 Pro, and general desktop animations, etc. are fine. That said, I do occasio…

GitHub is having an incident at the moment: https://www.githubstatus.com shows Update - We are investigating reports of issues with many services impacting segments of customers. W…

The color change doesn't bother me nearly as much as the change in proportions. Insetting the face on the right and removing its curvature makes the smile look super weird and less…

Those examples are all either zero cost or "buy once, use forever." How is that an argument against outsourcing your core competency to third party in perpetuity?

Good thing my MP3 files only store a psycho-acoustic model of that Metallica album! I mean sure, if you go to painstaking lengths, you can trick your computer into making some nois…

I think it makes sense if you think of Tauri as a "view layer" for rust apps. If you're building a rust GUI app using something like Dioxus, I could easily see wanting to bundle a …

How do you get from “ Right now, nobody knows from whence personhood rises” to (paraphrasing) “once we can recreate the connectome, we can back people up?” If we don’t know what it…

Why not bring a forklift into the gym?

“But the plans were on display…” “On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them.” “That’s the display department.” “With a flashlight.” “Ah, well, the lights h…

I'm rewatching the originals now, and it occurred to me that they were made during that magic period when computer graphics were advanced enough to be believable, but still expensi…

So because a few tech enthusiasts never got over solipsism, we all have to pretend that every simulacra of human behavior has a rich inner life?

Have you ever been in _any_ situation in which you've had complete data?

You don't actually need to rebuild the world, just the part that changed. It's rare to have other nix derivations depend on the dotfiles directly, so changes don't "cascade" to the…
