ESL here, apparently this phrase has multiple meanings. The first result was "broke", and "stay broke" definitely doesn't sound right. The second one was "having a gun", which I assume is metaphorical for

How do you check the code if you don't know the language?

Yeah, the Chinese government used the same method last year to hack the US government using Claude Code. Making each piece of work small enough to be plausible. Compartmentalization. (Also saying "nah it's cool I have permission&q

Why does this supremely valuable extra information my body is feeding me tell me to stop running, sit down and eat ice cream while watching 400 short videos? Like, that's much worse advice than I get from flipping a coin!
