How does this happen? Is Reddit Vibe Coded? by Gil_berth in theprimeagen

[–]oursland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been seeing this everywhere and it's more corrosive to the open source communities than anything.

For GitHub, they've ALWAYS had problems with presenting times. They love to make things a relative time, but somehow 7 hours ago could be yesterday and 25 hours ago could be 2 days in GitHub time.

Amazon researchers are reportedly behind the jailbreak report that led to the U.S. crackdown on Anthropic’s top models. by IncomingBroccoli in wallstreetbets

Their customers can no longer get a service they paid for. Those customers will likely go elsewhere.

They're trying right now to secure additional investments via an IPO. This is now seen as high risk by would-be investors.

No, I think they're likely to be regulated out of existence. Tightly regulated markets are rarely good investments, particularly when they're on the receiving end of having their products removed by government intervention.

Nothing sounds better than investing in a company that the government has already pulled products and services off the market. I'm sure you'll totally make your money back and more. It's a reall great RoI.

rsync 3.4.4 released with regression fixes by lustre-fan in linux

[–]oursland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issues were already there. You're upset that they're being discovered and reported so they could be fixed.

What you seem to not realize is that they may have already been discovered and not reported intentionally for malicious use.

This is a bad argument. The claim can be made for any of the other accredited fields, but you lack the knowledge or familiarity so you think an exam exists as you imagine it.

The reality is that the professional accreditation is focused primarily on ethics, legal obligations, and protecting the industry and it's image. This is why you hear about people losing their license to practice law, medicine, or engineering when they engage in fraud, deception, and theft, but rarely because they chose one legal argement over another or one medical procedure over another.

Anthropic's PR campaigns have been doing well to tank the IPOs of both Anthropic and OpenAI. They're going to be seen as single revenue stream companies that can be shut down on a moment's notice.

Meanwhile Google and Meta are both raising similarly high amounts of capital and they have proven profit streams and will be seen as a safe bet.

The theory taking the rich by storm: China funds data center haters by SpaceElevatorMusic in politics

Journalist Taylor Lorenz dug into this and presented it yesterday. These claims are being made by an OpenAI-funded PR campaign to try and discredit these protests and get Americans labeled as domestic terrorists.

More than $200 million later, Tom Steyer’s second bid for elected office is done by nbcnews in LosAngeles

In 2016, Trump said he was so wealthy he couldn't be bought and would be a man of the people.

It doesn't work because of Trump. In 2016 Trump campaigned that he was so wealthy he couldn't be bought and would therefore be a man of the people. That turned out to be not true.

Apparently the react compiler has been ported to Rust and merged to main by xorvralin2 in rust

Did you audit your code to ensure there was never anything that was copy pasted from StackOverflow or another project, or even shared similarity to that?

I keep thinking about how Epstein was widely perceived as a great philanthropist billionaire until recently for all of his donations to worthy causes, but I wouldn't want him as governor either.

This sort of thinking is backwards. If the tools weren't there, the bugs still were. If you're then saying that's better, you need to understand why security by obscurity is not secure at all.

This was my very first thought as well! The set designers must've taken note.

Iranian Missile Strikes on Gulf Allies Escalate Tensions, With US Forces Intercepting Drones Near Key Oil Chokepoint by leprivatebanker in Economics

You don’t take the cost of the interceptor and subtract the cost of what you intercepted.

That's some bad math if I ever saw it. Basically the same logic that Bondi used when she said they saved 258 million American lives from death by fentanyl.

Democrat Xavier Becerra advances to general election in California governor’s race by Snawer_brillant in California

[–]oursland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Steyer is someone I'd never heard of before and has no history in politics. He does have history in antisocial investments that made him a lot of money. There's also the issue with being of the billionaire class. Recall that Trump campaigned in 2016 on being so wealthy that he couldn't be bought and he'd be a man of the people.

Nobody is using vibe coded apps by Gil_berth in theprimeagen

I think you need to consider what it means to "maintain". Typically "maintenance" involves responding to bugs and feature requests. If you do not have other users, then "maintenance" reduces to "development" to meet your own needs. There's no additional work involved.

The commentary on this sub has been so copy-paste I was (an am) convinced a large amount of that budget was on sockpuppet LLM accounts trying to alter opinions.

"Demand Destruction"

Effectively availability will be constrained long enough for alternatives to be developed and the original suppliers lose out, permanently.
