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.

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
zsh: “Z shell”
ssh: S-S-H
sudo: I always think of it as “pseudo”
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.
Back in 2000, Time-Warner decided to purchase AOL. AOL had spent the last 5 years bleeding (dial-up) customers to their main competitors… anything that wasn’t dial-up.
Time-Warner hailed the “merger” as the Deal of the Century.
Later, Time-Warner admitted, “We didn’t realize that all those customers we thought we had purchased could simply leave.”
I’ve read that McDonald’s is pushing kiosks so hard because on average people order more when they use them vs cashier or drive-thru.
Had McDonald’s chicken nuggets in Canada a while back. They were made of real chicken. I’m jealous that Canada gets real food.
When looking for a new web browser, which feature would you prefer most and which would you prefer least?
I don’t want any of those. Can’t we just have a browser that filters all of the popups, junk and advertising?
Nope. You can’t progress through the survey without picking one thing you really don’t want and at least one of two things you couldn’t give a shit less about.
A: “We really need this super-important and highly-technical job done.”
B: “We could just hire a bunch of highly-technical people to do it.”
A: “No, we would have to hire people and that would cost us millions.”
B: “We could spend billions on untested technology and hope for the best.”
A: “Excellent work B! Charge the government $100M for our excellent idea.”
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.

What Trump needs is a Good Guy With A Gun.
Has he tried hiring a security guard? Did he try Duck & Cover? An armed school teacher maybe?
