> I just can't eat one. I'm not sure what the magnitude of the power of ten is but I know it's north of "a normal person's portion"

After about 300g, my tongue swells a bit and I start to wonder if I'm actually allergic to them [0] after all. Smaller quantities seem fine though.

[0] I know it's not really the nut that people are allergic too, but some fungus that grows on pistachios and cashews.

wait, what fungus? I am allergic "to" exactly those two nuts but can't find mention of this online.

Honestly, the person who decided to give an LLM Agent full and unrestricted access to their production database is the person who deserves all the blame. What an absolutely silly decision. I don't even give myself unrestricted access to production databases.
jasinjames · a month ago
I agree. An AI agent doesn't replace an engineer, it works on behalf of an engineer. The engineer who let this thing loose is, transitively, the software engineer that deleted the prod db.

From “test_everything.c”:

// ============== TEST 6: ¿Claude AI militar?==============

int test_military_ai() { printf("\n[TEST] Claude AI Militar\n");

    // Check if military AI exists
    if (access("kernel/claude_military_grade.c", F_OK) == 0) {
        printf(" Archivo existe\n");
        
        // Check if it's real crypto or fake
        FILE* f = popen("grep -c 'XOR' kernel/claude_military_grade.c", "r");
        char buffer[128];
        fgets(buffer, sizeof(buffer), f);
        pclose(f);
        
        if (atoi(buffer) > 0) {
            printf(" Crypto FALSO (solo XOR)\n");
            return 0;
        } else {
            printf("? Crypto no verificable\n");
            return 0;
        }
    } else {
        printf(" NO EXISTE\n");
        return 0;
    }
}

New whole-program analysis just dropped (it's grep).

For those of you who don't want to click into linked in, https://hackerone.com/reports/3125832 is the latest example of a invalid curl report

Can someone explain the ip address in the hackerone profile[0]? I can't tell if 139.224.130.174 is a reference to something real or just hallucinated by the LLM to look "cool". Wikipedia says that this /8 is controlled by "MIX"[1] but my google-fu is failing me atm.

We bought a projector. Would definitely recommend this if you have a wall that works for it. No unsettling frame smoothing, a minute or two warm up that adds just enough friction and no smart functions or ads.

I second this. Great for movie parties and sporting events. I got a reasonable quality one as surplus from a high-school IT department on fb marketplace.

If you have a "smart" TV you'd like to avoid connecting to the internet for reasons like this, you can try disconnecting the wireless module entirely. I had a Sony Bravia TV I didn't trust, and after popping off the back I disconnected the wireless module's ribbon cable. The android-TV OS handled it gracefully, and now I don't have to worry about it attempting to smuggle data through any other WLANs in my apartment building.

Which language is this? I'm sure some people can clue this together from the hints, but I'm not one of them.

Probably Java/Clojure

fwiw in the US, typically even extremely messed up teeth don't require removal to fix with orthodontics. Some ortho places will advocate it because it's easier. But if you get a few quotes in a big city usually someone can do it without pulling.

Wisdom teeth often do require pulling cus they literally don't fit (idk if this is an evolution thing - were people losing teeth normally enough that a new one coming in wasn't overcrowding?)

jasinjames · 6 months ago
I think this is an evolution thing but not in that way. I believe when our diets changed due to agriculture the foods we ate got softer and our mouths subsequently changed [1]
