Too little too late. Violated security trust == canceled.

Yup, he said it was so common and accepted within the intel community it got nicknamed "LoveInt".

That was my first thought too, this is already illegal under the CFAA and should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Jev, or 'Jevlikes', will go a long way towards trustable systems. There are demos of running every prompt through the first pass filter of Jev "Is this unsafe? y/N"

Seems to be that Jev is a "reflex" system for AI, where current LLMs are higher level thinking. Computers can now flinch!

Install Cold Turkey site blocker; block all social media channels with a slop "feed". (Facebook, instagram, reddit, etc.)

Youtube subs only to Science, History, Cozy content. Aggressively unfollow click bait.

Discord only with close personal friends who are chill.

Play single player games, or multiplayer games only with close personal friends.

The internet doesn't have to connect you with hordes of terminally online droolers.

For Meta, on their knees?

Valve has annual profits in the billions, they invest in the future of VR too.

Asking for proof of improvement is a very rational reaction to the last three to five years of constant AI hype cycling.

It's a simple question that seems to make AI cheerleaders really mad.

"How are you measuring improvement."

I use AI for coding every day and see it fail all the time, I'm a seasoned developer and early tech adopter just like everyone else on HN. I'm still very skeptical because of how often these systems just miss. It's gambler's ruin on a very large scale, we remember the hits and forget the misses.

"You're holding it wrong."

Presumably the guard is supposed to keep the "bad people" out, so that kids can be safe.

Instead, the Mom is placed on probation for seven years and will have monthly visits from CPS.

At a minimum a judge signed warrant should be required for any data access.

Second, a third-party annual security and data audit, with power to revoke licenses if findings aren't mitigated within a reasonable time frame.

Finally, a civilian oversight committee with real power to sanction bad actors.

This article appears to be a coordinated attack on Perplexity.

It seems reasonable that Axon, the #1 police body camera vendor, would benefit from a national social media wave of hate towards it's competitor Flock.

People who get angry enough to tear down the Flock cameras in their area get rounded up and classified by the Feds as "leftist terrorists".

Axon gets a major boost to it's revenue by landing fat .gov contracts for it's own version of 24/7 surveillance.

Government employees who approve the contracts get rich on insider trading.

Personally the line for me is a human police officer with reasonable judgement and accountability.

If an officer was standing next to every Flock camera in America, the public would be hyper aware of the situation we are now in.

Mass, warrantless, and perpetual surveillance is incompatible with liberty and unacceptable to the vast majority of Americans.

It has to be stopped, or we are doomed.

I asked my local sheriff about the Flock cameras that are located on my street.

He swore that they were only "ALPR" (Automatic License Plate Readers) and "definitely not Flock cameras".

I went and looked again, and they definitely are Flock cameras, so that's nice.

He is likely quite wealthy now, from his long career on YT.

I'm sure that many of the things you see as "work" are hired out. Video editing, thumbnails, etc. Even hiring multiple Linux developers to help him get through a tricky spot in the build would be reasonable for someone "retired" but with a lot of money.

I think they fully understood, which is why they all got jail sentences.

"Stand back and stand by."

At a minimum the data center should be responsible for paying for noise mitigation on all houses within a half mile of the site.

That work could be done within a few months, upgrade all the window treatments, replace all doors with solid core, add sound mitigation fencing, etc.

Yes.

The day reddit asks me to upload an ID to shitpost about the NBA is the day I stop using reddit.

A union absolutely can and should protect workers from frivolous layoffs.

If the company tries to layoff 10% "due to AI" the remaining 90% can strike.

History is full of union solidarity vs idiotic management.

US software engineers need a union.

If I hadn't already landed a job somewhere else, I would only return with a 20% pay bump and an iron-clad contract.

It's routine and trivial for the US Gov to enforce export controls on non-US based companies.

This "across the border" strategy will not work.

Seagate Singapore was hit with civil penalties and settlements for shipments to Huawei under the Foreign Direct Product Rule.

ZTE, a Chinese company, was criminally prosecuted and settled with U.S. DOJ/BIS in 2017 for violating U.S. export controls and sanctions.

Ah thanks for reminding me to cancel my subscription.

Good reminder for me to cancel my Cursor subscription. I don't support Elmo.

As a pedestrian, can you sell your neighbor's dangerous car?

If a driver would get a ticket, shouldn't Tesla also get a ticket?

In the US, drivers kill pedestrians all the time and are barely punished.

Is this the same standard that should be adopted everywhere?

There's nothing truly secure from a group of highly motivated nerds.

I don't understand why "break the door down" wouldn't be the most immediate course of action by a senior engineer in that situation. I'll get my tools.
