"socially conservative, fiscally liberal" lol, what the hell. How many drugs must one consume to come up with this shit. Also, I feel like someone did the whole nationalist socialism thingy before and it didn't go super well.

The cool thing about Generative AI is that it generates stuff. Now, is the stuff it generates the stuff I asked for? No. But that's the beauty of the technology. It doesn't give me what I want, nor does it give me what I need. It just gives me things.

My employer requested that I share our research blogs on Reddit. I initially pushed back because my past experience with Reddit has not been great to say the least. After 1 post, I'm adding a line to my contract that makes it a violation to ask me to use Reddit. Literally every single reply is this:

It's wild that they're trying to spin this as an immigration issue. The US dangled the promise of residency in front of Afghan nationals to get them to provide intelligence to the CIA. Then when the US botched the withdrawal, they created special frameworks to evacuate sources without proper vetting

This 30 year old woman posted a TikTok video about some fascinating new information she learned (that the reason glasses require a prescription isn't because they contain medicine which magically absorbs your eyes). She won't stop digging and the comment section is the funniest shit I've ever read.

Was playing PUBG and this guy on my team wouldn't stop yelling the N-word at the enemies via proximity chat, so after like the 6th time I just shoot him in the head. Which is extremely funny because it's a battle royal game, so you don't respawn when you die. You have to sit out the entire game. 1/3

Reform UK is super embarrassing. At least with MAGA, some of it can be explained by rural red counties. When your entire education system is run by people who believe everything can be explained by 2000 year old urban legends about a magic baby, it kind of cooks your brain. The UK doesn't have that.

One of the main driving factors behind my decision to stay in the US is that while both the US and UK have become increasingly far-right and hostile to immigrants, the US has much further to fall. The UK is basically only a sneeze away from bankrupting what's left of its economy.
The number of British citizens emigrating hasn’t increased, btw. Outward migration is up, but the increase is mostly non-EU migrants leaving the UK.

The methodology counting emigration of British citizens changed in 2021, which increased the number, and it’s been pretty much flat ever since…

It's funny to see people saying the economy is fine, when you have tech dudes asking for a trillion dollars to invest in a product where their answer to "what's your business model" is "we'll ask our product how to make money".

For software developers: there's currently a highly sophisticated hacking group targeting developers with backdoored coding skills tests. They typically take the form of large source codes specific to your skillset. Please email any suspicious code to me on: [email protected]

I just stumbled across Kaos on Netflix because I guess they did zero promotion. Hands down one of the best and most unique shows I’ve watched in a long time. And of course they’d already cancelled it the second it was released. I guess it’s back to watching season 31 of some Marvel slop.

Founders on LinkedIn still seem to be struggling with the difference between telling people about their humble beginnings and admitting to straight up committing fraud.

It's a very cybersecurity day in cybersecurity when I'm eating breakfast and taking a shower at 3pm 😆

GPT would have been such a great technology if LLMs were just used to augment search engines. Their natural language processing ability means they can find relevant content no matter how you phrase your query. No more keyword matching, just ask a question, or describe what you’re looking for. 1/2

Twitter Conservatives finding out all the hot MAGA mom accounts they've been gooning to are actually run by men in developing nations

So far AI has caused negative job loss for me. It only took me a a few hours of vibe coding to realize my time is way too valuable for this shit, then hire a team of programmers. My company's AI related job loss currently stands at -300%.

One of my career goals is to make another company where I'm not really a serious threat to any of my competitors, but they just buy me out anyway because I'm kind of annoying

Not sure who made this, but probably the most accurate representation of the current state of tech to date

IMO the only cybersecurity measure the US has ever had is its military. No major power would risk an actually destructive cyberattack on the US out of fear of a kinetic response. If it wasn't for that, it wouldn't be super difficult for someone to unravel the entire US economy at this point.
Breaking: The FCC has voted 2-1 along party lines to eliminate cybersecurity requirements for telecom companies that the commission adopted at the end of the Biden administration.

Telecoms had lobbied for the change. Democrats said it would invite another Salt Typhoon.

Story coming shortly.

this administration is still gonna complain about deterring cyber espionage even after making all targets into soft targets.

It always makes me chuckle how occasionally you'll run into beginners who say stuff like "real hackers use Linux". Real hackers aren't constrained by operating system choice. In fact, half the fun is running into that weird edge case where you end up having to code your own OS for some niche task.

I don’t want to seem out of touch but I don’t actually understand the economy anymore.
