> Security gets its own automated review too. ... You either fix it or close the thread with a short reason, which is how you clear a false positive.

I hope this is only for low-risk false positives. Dismissing a critical finding as a false positive should still involve AppSec.

You could improve revert rates while simultaneously introducing more security vulnerabilities.

And the linked "claude-code-security-review" explicitly states in the README

> This action is not hardened against prompt injection attacks

That's a significant limitation for an AI security review control, no?

I recently tried to recover text from 8 frames of an office-shot YouTube video, where only a small, blurry portion of a computer screen was visible. After spending half a day with Astra on it, the conclusion was that it’s not possible to read.

Later that evening, I just paused the YouTube video on my phone, circled the part of the display with Google Lens, and it read the whole thing with pretty good accuracy. It was mindblowing :)

It looks to me like subtle marketing for the doughnut-shaped hardware from Jony Ive that comes next. All these 3D-printed avatars we see at 00:12 are shaped to have the doughnut Dots inside them.

Interesting. Instagram still publishes a 768-bit RSA DKIM key, so I guess factoring it is now just a weekend GPU project?

The parent company is Gen Digital now, and its product line is: Norton / Avast / AVG / Avira / CCleaner

I have no idea why anyone would install and use their browser.

This one is both awesome and scary. We are living in a black mirror episode, where one well-crafted LLM prompt can get you $500k or the ability to hack into 500M websites :)

Re:PgAdmin 4 9.13 with AI Assistant Panel on Tuesday March 10, 2026 @11:09AM (#47324324)
Quick fix based on https://github.com/pgadmin-org/pgadmin4/issues/9696#issuecom...

Click on the "Reset layout" button in the query tool (located in the top right corner), and it will move the "AI Assistant" tab to the right. Now, when you query a table, it will default to the Query tab as always.

You leaked `./frontend/.env.local` & `./backend/.env` inside `ShadowBroker_v0.1.zip` in the first commit.
