If you bought a parrot it'd probably outlive you and that's been giving me waves of existential crisis for the last few weeks.

It's really annoying how every tool, product, or vulnerability publication now has a huge ai slop webpage that doesn't tell me anything about what the thing is. The amount of writing that's just absolutely unreadable fluff is crazyyy

It's crazy how effective incompetent people are at being evil. Like imagine if the flock people were also competent... I don't even want to think about how much more damage they could do.

I'm choosing to buy a fork from the yeehaw family wedding registry instead of the guns, knowing that financial aid frees up other capital that can be used to purchase weapons, but permits me to avoid providing explicit support. I need to read less news tbh

My personal conspiracy theory is people asking for recommendations on restaurants or music on dating apps are just data mining for listicles

We're hiring a new product security lead for Wikipedia! It's a new lead PM role that would steer our security engineering team and how we go about this work here at the Wikimedia Foundation. AND: it's fully remote, and open in a good number of countries. job-boards.greenhouse.io/wikimedia/jo...

We are hiring a Lead Product Manager to bring their experience dealing with modern threats to bear on Wikipedia’s security strategy in the AI era, and to drive a strong security culture throughout the Wikimedia Foundation and movement.

Though this is a senior role, prior experience in a product manager role is not required. This position is intended to bring strong technical and security experience, including some familiarity with AI in a security context, into a role focused on product and platform strategy.

This position could be a good fit for a candidate with both strong technical skills and strong communication skills, who is interested in transitioning from engineering work to a strategic role.

This role is an opportunity to be at the center of a pivotal time for Wikipedia, as AI is not only changing security, but also how people access knowledge online. Responding to these changes requires us to plan ambitiously and act decisively, while working closely with the communities whom the project serves.

I wonder what JFK would think if he knew the entire concept of knolls is so closely associated with him, it's almost never mentioned in any other context.

It's kinda insane how portable toilets are such a pivotal part of most large gatherings. From festivals to marathons to political rallies, they're like the bedrock of the events industry. Gross.

When my dog gets scared she'll come into whatever room I'm in and start shaking/panting, but she'll sit right between me and the door, standing guard. She's so scared but so brave. Those fireworks don't stand a chance.

It's really weird how chat bots overuse specific slang terms. IDK why they chose the ones they did. Off the top of my head I'm completely sick of hearing - vibe - smoking gun - xyz-coded there are definitely others I'm forgetting.

The AMBER alert program is incredibly important but every time my phone makes the EAS noise I believe I am in immediate danger/missiles incoming/tsunami approaching and have a panic attack for a sec. I really wish I could change the sound. I know it's important and I want to keep seeing them but omg

I have docs sitting in my notepad history with just random garbage in them. I'm too scared to delete them because I've forgotten why I put them there. So I guess they'll be around until I either remember or my session gets corrupted 🤷‍♂️

Prompt injection is actually just two things. Either: 1. Make the llm forget it's not allowed to do something Or 2. Make the llm think it's doing something it's allowed to. There's no injection and it's not really a security flaw. It's how these algorithms are designed to work...

Watching AI slop bros go up against maintainers who are sticklers about style is watching an unstoppable force against an immovable object. Wild and slightly terrifying.

This is such an interesting read. Makes me think: A lot of our search for alien intelligence relies on looking for structure, but there are SO many assumptions. Like what if most of the universe communicates with pheromones or dancing? Would it be possible to communicate without structure?

Is church just giant book club? Is book club just tiny church? Everyone reads the same book then gets together to drink wine and occasionally chat/argue about the book but it's mostly about the wine and community

Okay but like wouldn't ANY static analysis tool find this bug? Like you should be able to do this without paying for Claude, it's textbook command injection. If OSS security tools wouldn't immediately identify this vulnerability I would argue that's a huge failure for SAST and not a huge win for AI.
