Any jurisdiction can pass a law unless there's a law against doing so.

For example, you couldn't do this in Massachusetts. A city would first have to petition the state for a new law allowing the city to pass such a local law.

I ended up having to dispute credit card charges from Patreon because I couldn't solve captchas needed to log in or to talk to support. I won, but it was an annoying process, and now I use disposable/virtual cards.

By antifragile, do you mean fragile?

That's a bad use of a very expensive phone. Get an actual dumb phone that's vastly cheaper.

> what if he gets lost?

Then he can look at street signs, ask someone nearby for directions, or (and this is an option I didn't have as a kid)... call someone. On the phone. That he has.

Sounds more like what he had to survive was the sheer boredom.

Man, what's going on with this site that makes every phrase "North Korea" into a link about playing golf there? Some kind of self-link-auto-enhancement plugin gone nuts?

Yeah, I can imagine that there might be some esoteric situation where this becomes problematic but it's really not clear what it would be.

I like your vastly simpler reproduction of the issue, too. :-)

Sure, what you're describing should be relatively safe from prompt injection. It's a lot less capable than the original, of course.

I'm not saying "it's impossible to get an LLM to do anything safely", just that you have to really scale back on your goal.

Sure. But that's not what was being suggested in the comment I responded to.

(There are also problems with what you're suggesting, though, such as the summary report still being ripe for abuse in similar ways as the blog post describes.)

For those who don't know, djb is both highly regarded as a cryptographer and known to be something of a crank. (The former part is the only reason this is getting any attention.) Frankly, I don't know what's gotten into him.

The linked piece is not representative of the broader cryptography community. ML-KEM is fine.

Eh. No one has been able to prove to my satisfaction that they're conscious, or even simply define what it is that they claim to possess. Pick something else.

Nice, thanks! I forgot that 404 Media is paywalled.

Main content is that Apple has been jerking around this security researcher for about a year, and they finally gave up and talked to 404 Media. They didn't disclose the vuln itself but they did demonstrate it with the reporter's account.

Sorry, no. That might be a thing you've personally experienced, but it's far from universal.

What are you saying that they'll crawl? Bing search results? Seems unlikely.

Yeah, I don't even permit Google to crawl and index my site any more.

Try unionizing rather than just asking nicely.

Clause also said you should do your own research rather than repeating what Claude says.

I wouldn't trust Pangram too much. I've seen it give "100% LLM-written, high confidence" to multiple 100% human written articles (high confidence).

In large sections, every sentence is its own paragraph. I don't know what it would be like without all the extra linebreaks, but as it is, it feels like the author is getting their breath back in between sentences.

(I've also seen this style on an LLM-written site.)
