The public probably thinks that these companies are getting hacked by "sophisticated hackers" but I'd bet money that they've been hacked via social engineering.

I thought this was generally known that people are bad at reporting most things about themselves. It's a good argument in favor of wearables or other smart monitors, if anyone expects to do actual rigorous research it needs to be objec

I was going nuts trying to figure out why things that used to work would no longer work. Then, I realized ping would work fine in MacOS Terminal app but not in VS Code. It turns out that you need to let VS Code talk to devices on your LAN

Let's take the best thing that's happened to humanity and ruin it with corporatism...truly unbelievable if this ruling doesn't get overturned.

I have a different strategy: hire managers that are technically inclined.

In my experience, hiring managers worry way too much about finding research engineers with deep math skills when at the end of the day they need software folks to operationalize simple maybe slightly fine-tuned foundation models.

Money moves in stealthy ways already, and there are ways to identify that. The problem is the legislature is supposed to be supervising the government entities that pursue financial corruption. Instead of reducing all problems to economic p

This is so accurate. There's been lots of talk of enshittification and it really is just everything now. Monetizing the well in modern capitalism means poisoning it. It all can be traced back to lobbying in politics. They need to ban m

Don’t really care about advice from the guy who invented an incredibly non pragmatic programming language. I also honestly had to look up who he was. So his sage advice hasn’t brought him much fame.
