You could use Firefox and then set the accelerator key to Super, changing all application bindings to use Super instead of Control. This is my setup and it’s great.

Reminds me of “Flashed face distortion effect”:

> People keep forgetting to sanitize inputs, for example. Does that render input sanitization a broken idea?

Possibly. You could prevent careless use of unsanitized inputs with a type system. Fail-safe designs should be more common.

This is what Stephen Wolfram concludes in a recent article about ChatGPT:

> The specific engineering of ChatGPT has made it quite compelling. But ultimately (at least until it can use outside tools) ChatGPT is “merely” pulling out some “coherent thread of text” from the “statistics of conventional wisdom” that it’s accumulated. But it’s amazing how human-like the results are. And as I’ve discussed, this suggests something that’s at least scientifically very important: that human language (and the patterns of thinking behind it) are somehow simpler and more “law like” in their structure than we thought.

This attack also doesn't work if you `exec su lowpriv_user` since there is no parent shell.

Essay writing unconsciously reinforces one’s opinion on a topic. This is an excellent tool for intellectual development when the student is free to argue any sensible position. Unfortunately, teachers often require students to choose orthodox positions, and thus essays become a primary tool for indoctrination.

Cheating has no place in an academic institution, but machine generated essays are an interesting way for students to avoid enforced compliance.

> Layoffs like this can have a more pronounced impact on marginalized communities, so we were particularly focused on ensuring our layoffs – while a business necessity today – were carried out through an Anti-Racist/Anti-Oppression lens.

You are mistaken. The letter is quite clear.
