Slava Ukraini!
No idea if this will become a pandemic or not, but if it doesn't this article will be telling.

It can be seen on Prime video or Apple tv.
I wanted to post this here directly in case the shared version ever gets removed or deleted. Too good.
If you missed the Project Glasswing announcement last month: Anthropic built a security-focused model that autonomously found thousands of high-severity vulnerabilities across every major OS and web browser, then decided it was too dangerous to release publicly. Instead they gave access to ~40 organizations to use it defensively .
Cloudflare just posted their honest breakdown of the experience.
The genuinely impressive part:
the model can take several exploit primitives and reason about how to chain them into a working proof. The reasoning looks like the work of a senior researcher, not an automated scanner
The catch:
its built-in guardrails aren't consistent. The same task framed differently could produce completely different outcomes. Cloudflare's point is that this inconsistency is exactly why any future public release needs hardened safeguards layered on top.
They also acknowledge the same capabilities that helped them find bugs in their own code will, in the wrong hands, accelerate attacks against every application on the internet.
Worth a read if you've been following the Glasswing story.
More protectionism / corporatism from the Republicans. Pathetic.
Socialism feeds on this popular economic illusion. People see all this money coming in, they don't see the expenses draining it out and assume owners are pocketing far more than they actually do.
Worker salary is on average 30%-35% of business expenses, business owner profit after expenses might be a tenth of that if they're lucky.
Many businesses make a loss all year long until Christmas.
Imagine seeing down someone's throat into their lungs 😬
I found this article fascinating — not because it’s science fiction anymore, but because it raises questions we may realistically face within our lifetime.
Researchers continue making major advances in gene editing and embryo research, potentially opening the door to preventing inherited diseases before birth. But once that door opens, where do we draw the line between “treatment” and “enhancement”?
If technology eventually allowed parents to reduce the risk of severe disease in an embryo, would you support it?
What about increasing intelligence, athletic ability, or modifying physical traits?
Would you personally do it for your own future child?
Curious where people think the ethical boundary should be.
Karens plus screaming at people just trying to enjoy themselves, name a more statist combo.
