Would that large trial have shown the cancerous effect of smoking? If not, do you then agree that some possible adverse effects were not checked for and could have slipped through?

Of course, all the generated code has to reviewed and vetted for by a senior developer. Of course, this has to be re-done every now and then when new classes of vulnerabilities appear that the previous generation didn’t have in mind.

Or do you just trust the AI that was trained on a lot of bogus code?

Hand in your paper when you’re on vacation or even better on a conference in Europe. GDPR will apply. Of course it will take so long that you won’t benefit from a decision for your studies. And one possible outcome is that your college won’t allow submitting from EU and won’t admit EU citizens (similar to US citizens having difficulties opening accounts in EU banks).

While there was some intent to cause harm their attempts were amateurish. The actual damage was done by the agent setting up aws infrastructure not on the demands of the owner.

> The cleanest mitigation is to return results in a canonical order, such as lexicographic sorting.

And hope that the sorting time cannot be used as a side channel.

I agree it’s awkward. But I don’t find it creepy per se. It was a tradeoff to which all parties consented.

In one case there was just that one room available stranded in the middle of nowhere.

In other cases it was due to lack of financial resources.

Example Finland. Could you end up in a nude Sauna with your superior? Yes, especially if it is same sex.

Example Germany. Which law would be broken? Internal compliance rules, yes, that would be often the case.

HN guidelines say: Assume good faith. We should apply it to Sheryl here as well.

In Europe several of my acquaintances shared a bed with their professors/superior for various non-sexual reasons. It’s also a cultural thing.

Somehow this code lacks the magic I‘m used from rails:

    class BooksController < ApplicationController
    def show
        @book = Book.find(params[:id])
        add_breadcrumb("Home", path: root_path)
        add_breadcrumb("Books", path: books_path)
        add_breadcrumb(@book.title)
      end
    end

Only the title is specific to the show method. Home should be set by the application controller and Books by the books controller code.

The requested feature is more like list-unsubscribe headers for mailing lists[1]. Instead of categorizing the mail as spam (blocking) you send a clean unsubscribe back to the sender.

Yes, you could use union. But then you have to pad the columns of the other tables with NULLs to arrive at the same output and carefully count. And we all hate counting.

If your pipeline is meant to count files then the bigger problem is that it counts directories too.

If you have filenames with newlines you may have other - less nasty - stuff too.

So you either get a reasonable answer in 1s (or 2s if you have short look at the output before counting). Or you spend 1h+ discussing requirements and carefully writing a program that gives a precise answer.

Things to consider:

- how to treat symlinks

- how to treat hardlinks

- what if files are added/removed to/from the directory tree while you scan

- how to react to missing read permissions

- is your regex on the whole path or just on the basename

- ...

Of course you are misunderstanding the parent.

But to go with your interpretation: If you ask the victims of the Arab spring[1], fb is no better than 8chan. Also YouTube did a bad job in containing Islamic state propaganda early on [2].
