I wonder how many bugs will be introduced with these fixes...

#14Sounds like a lot but compare it to Edge also being patched for 428 Chromium CVEs this month. If 20 years ago you told me a single piece of software had 428 vulnerabilities I wouldn't have believed it. If Chromium has that many security bugs, perhaps the move fast and break things approach of spraying diarrhea masquerading as code into a keyboard — in a rush to add new features no one asked for — needs to be reexamin…
20 years ago software wasn't as much battle tested as today, had way less feature set, was less connected to the internet, and etc. 428 CVEs looks small, assuming not all have CVSS 9.8 or something.

Isn't that... Windows Update? At least last time I looked it would update .net runtimes, Office, what else? OK, Visual Studio has its own update mechanism. Edge is part of the OS, isn't it?

#18It seems like bug hunting might be the one area where AI is actually making the world a better place.
