I used to work at Google and they let a small group of us try to help save the world. Not sure how we managed that.

Last Notes npub1j35puez0qtglat0e4zgkuaycca3ju5ddx73t7725e0jy9qcne4vqu70ueu Anthony B, It's just accountability laundering. See also the recent thing where an AI coding framework would sometimes delete all your files, and they tried to say "it made an honest mistake". No it didn't. It had a severe bug. Try saying "Excel made an honest mistake and corrupted all of the files in your SharePoint". Does that make it better? npub1j35puez0qtglat0e4zgkuaycca3ju5ddx73t7725e0jy9qcne4vqu70ueu Anthony B, I am baffled why people are going "oh no what is to be done" about openai breaking into a competitors computers, when it is incredibly obvious: Charge them under the CFAA. "Oh but their research". Sandbox it from the Internet. "Oh it's too hard to do that". Skill issue, get good. npub1j35puez0qtglat0e4zgkuaycca3ju5ddx73t7725e0jy9qcne4vqu70ueu Anthony B, Outstanding. Principles matter. https://www.theregister.com/2025/10/27/python_foundation_abandons_15m_nsf npub1j35puez0qtglat0e4zgkuaycca3ju5ddx73t7725e0jy9qcne4vqu70ueu Anthony B, It's 2024, and the Australian Prime Minister thinks online organising isn't a thing. npub1j35puez0qtglat0e4zgkuaycca3ju5ddx73t7725e0jy9qcne4vqu70ueu Anthony B, @npub1lrv…tth9 the main thing I would quibble with was it wasn't a new version of the kernel driver. It was that the kernel driver would pull down files from the internet npub1j35puez0qtglat0e4zgkuaycca3ju5ddx73t7725e0jy9qcne4vqu70ueu Anthony B, Some things about the latest shit: npub1j35puez0qtglat0e4zgkuaycca3ju5ddx73t7725e0jy9qcne4vqu70ueu Anthony B, In case you missed it from the weekend. One of the extremely good humans, Junyer (Paul Wankadia) passed away. Posted an obituary for Junyer in a way that would have made him laugh. As a bug report against re2. npub1j35puez0qtglat0e4zgkuaycca3ju5ddx73t7725e0jy9qcne4vqu70ueu Anthony B, Look, making fun of Rishi Sunak is easy, but when it's done well, it's very funny. npub1j35puez0qtglat0e4zgkuaycca3ju5ddx73t7725e0jy9qcne4vqu70ueu Anthony B, Good god Microsoft Recall is so so much worse than the initial reporting suggested npub1j35puez0qtglat0e4zgkuaycca3ju5ddx73t7725e0jy9qcne4vqu70ueu Anthony B, Speaking as someone who was the father of a new born having to do the every 4 hour trip to the kitchen to boil the kettle and prepare formula, drop the previous bottle into boiling water, repeat. I had a system worked out. If the kettle had tried to offer my sleep addled brain witty bromides, well that kettle would be an ex fucking kettle and I'd be staring at the microwave going "you wanna start something, or will you just heat water and shut up?" npub1j35puez0qtglat0e4zgkuaycca3ju5ddx73t7725e0jy9qcne4vqu70ueu Anthony B, https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/111/680/031/312/080/343/original/6340a979a11cd706.png
