Sure, Microsoft is happy to let their AIs scan everyone else’s code., but is anyone aware of any software houses letting AIs scan their in-house code?

Any lawyer worth their salt won’t let AIs anywhere near their company’s proprietary code intil they are positive that AI isn’t going to be blabbing the code out to every one of their competitors.

But of course, IANAL.

No, this can’t be. They took all of our personal information so they could use AI to tailor ads to exactly what we wanted at any given moment.

Someone create a GoFundMe so we can buy him tickets.

1 I had assumed votes were private 2 If I don’t hear soon that votes are private, I’ll simply stop participating and return to lurking. I’ll eventually just wander off to the next thing that doesn’t expose my votes to potential bots and/or abusive actors.

What’s Putin worried about? He’s sure the Ukrainian invasion will be over in only 3 days. /s

He should take the opportunity to blame the truck design on a cyberattack as well.

Trump chose Vance because he knows no one could possibly “like” Vance more than Trump.
Trump’s narcissism prevents him from choosing someone even remotely likable or capable because Trump’s ego would fear them as competition.

Not too unusual. There have been a lot of new vulnerabilities announced lately. A few months ago they announced one that exposed all (?) mainstream CPUs, even Apple’s new chips.
Some of the vulns are serious, but many require very specific circumstances to actually work.

Musk is really upping his asshole game. He’s alienated 50% of the US, a good bit of Norway and now Britain.

Republicans worry Trump is having a ‘public nervous breakdown’

No, Trump is just preparing his insanity defense for when he loses.

Ok, so cautionary tale time.

Regarding the “mac and cheese for life” bit…

Once a guy I knew received a “lifetime supply” of a brand of soap. Well-known brand. Not the cheap stuff. Showed up one day as a full pallet of boxes of soap. After about a week, he figured he needed to start figuring out ways to get rid of the stuff. He offered me a box (crate?) of the soap the next time I visited him. He offered another the next time I visited. And another. I soon learned to stop visiting. Soon all his friends and every person he knew were walking away with boxes of soap. Not individual boxes of soap. Boxes of 50 bars. His garage and soon his entire house smelled of soap. I’m sure delivery people stopped entering his neighborhood just to avoid having soap snuck into their trucks when they weren’t looking.

Long story short, I was in school at the time and free anything was a godsend. But after trying to use up 50 bars of the stuff, it was just too much. To this day I can’t even look at that soap when I’m at the store. The smell of it turns my stomach.

There’s definitely such thing as too much of a good (ok?) thing.

Why is it always Austin, the most liberal, left-wing city in Texas? If they’re trying to get away from “woke”, they should be moving to REAL Texas. Some town nobody’s even heard of.

They’re posers. They want to look like Texans, but they move to liberal-ville.

Wall St destroys yet another company through sheer greed. Film at 11.

Boeing doesn’t listen to their engineers, but we’re supposed to listen to their marketing department.

If we eliminated all CO₂ emissions tomorrow, we would still be stuck with all the CO₂ we’ve already released. A lot of the CO₂ we’ve released has been taken up by the oceans. We have to find a way to sequester that C0₂ “back in the ground” in order to back to levels we had years ago in order to head off/reverse global climate change.

I will always say, “Fuck Carly Fiorina” for ruining the finest company in the engineering world.

Yup. A better simile is Boeing. Quality don’t matter if cutting it makes number go up. Oops.

McDonald’s recently announced they were giving up on their AI drive-thrus because of the order chaos they created. But I’m confident Taco Bell is going to succeed where McDonald’s and their billions could not. Great choice, Taco Bell CEO. Next step, AI CEO.

Yes, Teslas can charge at 250 kW, but they do not sustain that charging rate for long. As the battery charges, its charging rate drops. If newer battery technologies can sustain the higher charge rates longer, they could theoretically store more charge in less time.

Ransomware you have to pay $10,000 every few years. Crowdstrike you have to pay $1,000 per month. Same number of outages for both. /s
