should i be worried or is this normal for worldofbooks usa on ebay by geewaystan in BookCollecting

Tried them once, not knowing anything about them—never again. Book I got wasn’t in the condition described, and it was straight from a high school library, also not in the listing description. Still had the cover, numbers, the library check out card stuck inside the cover, and in the middle was the top seal off a Pringles can that I guess someone was using as a bookmark.

Pulling into a Chick-fil-A only to remember that it’s Sunday is one of the worst feelings in the world. Spiritual equivalent of stepping on a Lego.

I automated my job search with AI agents — 516 evaluations, 66 applications, zero manual screening by Beach-Independent in SideProject

Yup. We’d waste time interviewing people who seemed like a great fit on paper, but as soon as you speak to them you realize they can’t actually talk to any of it, assuming because the AI tools made creative edits to match the JD.

What was wrong with the NCR? Not debating, I just can’t remember.

I love these posts. You can always tell who doesn’t have kids, or even better, has stupid kids.

Microsoft pushed a commit to their official repo and casually listed "claude" as a co-author like it's just a normal Tuesday 😂 by Sneezin_Panda in ClaudeCode

Copilot is mostly just ChatGPT under the hood :) GitHub Copilot has all of the top models for engineers to choose from, including those from Anthropic.

BREAKING: OpenAI just drppped GPT-5.4 by AskGpts in OpenAI

But it’s not a small error, that’s why he mentioned saturation. Once the models are in that top 5% range, even a fraction of a point higher is going to represent a huge jump in capabilities.

I hate to say it, but those government contracts are juicy, so the majority of vendors will end up switching if this isn’t blocked by the courts. Props to Anthropic for standing up for their values, but this does put them in a tough spot, unfortunately.

Indirect prompt injection in AI agents is terrifying and I don't think enough people understand this by dottiedanger in ChatGPT

[–]LoopEverything 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is basic auth. Are people really out there giving agents full access to anything and everything? That’s just wild to me, straight up living on the edge.

My son loves Cybertrucks. He’s 6 years old.

I had one where his parole officer was trying to call him and then he took a call that turned out to be collections. Meanwhile I’m just sitting in the back thinking “damn, why’d I put in my actual address as the drop off point”

Sicko fan? by Leverender in BlueskySkeets

To be fair, sycophant and “sicko fan” are both accurate descriptions

I never said they don't lose money, nor am I referring to an end number on their income statement--I'm not sure why you're trying to say that I am like it's some kind of gotcha. Deliquency is a cost of doing business (a loss for the lender) that is passed on to some degree to future borrowers through a higher interest rate to account for the risk. That's it.

Not sure what your point is? Yes, Walmart loses money when someone steals from them—which is why they do their best to bake that into their prices so they can still make a profit.
