If your hypothetical client as security measure ONLY permits VSCode on a dedicated box you’re obligated to work on and have no control over - then I pray for you. And for your hypothetical client. Especially as judging by your description t

You always have a choice to use/learn/make a different tool. It’s a prison of your own making. I’ve personally adopted a process where I structure my projects to ALWAYS keep credentials and sensitive information in a separate dire

If you want to be security conscious don’t give it access to your system directly. Ask it to guide you through the information gathering part of the problem solving process and use your brain and judgment if it actually needs the informatio

Reminder to everyone, treat these as trojans. Run them isolated from the rest of your system. Give it a full desktop in a VM if you want to, just not direct access to your system.

GDP is a scam and a shit metric. Natural disasters increase GDP and so does pollution because of the money spent cleaning it up. Poland also has 4x the population of Switzerland. Normalise the GDP and then let’s start having a conversation.

Hi, former student with social phobia and terrified of public speaking. Today: adult with no problems doing public speaking in front of hundreds. What fixed me: more public speaking and not having the option of avoiding the task.

Internet commentators are dumbasses. Nothing new here. Point and laugh at them, and move on. They don’t matter, they’re idiots. Source: I’m a dumbass.

If anyone is curious where this leads to, I will happily point to China, Kazakhstan and Russia as prime examples. Can’t wait to have our very own Roskomnadzor MITMing everything and national security laws mandating Kazakhstan style TLS inte

Pardon my French. Eat a bag of dicks. Of course you didn’t advocate for the bans of open weight models. I will concede that. It’s only the at you did literally everything else that you can to eliminate competition because otherwise there is

1 drone: 10-20k 1h of flight time for an F-16: 25k, not counting the missiles used and ammo. Doesn’t scale. Ergo, useless.

“Narrowly scoped to Hormuz” yeah because anything more than that apparently is too great of a scope for the US military. Check the latest reports on stocks in Washington Post. What air superiority? In the Middle East? With what, let me gues

F-16s are reusable until they get shot down and you need to be within 30km of the target to drop a JDAM. Any SAM from 60s onwards can deny entry to F-16/F-35. As soon as F-35 opens hatches to drop a bomb it’s on the radar. Small jet en

> Strategic outcomes are irrelevant to the question of unit economics in airpower. lol > look at how much cheaper expensive bombs are than expensive ballistic missiles are Right, to drop a JDAM you need to be within 30km of a target.

Once you consider the full picture it doesn’t make sense. There’s a reason why Russia and Ukraine are lobbing ballistic missiles and cheap drones at each other. There’s a reason why Iran conflict looks the way it does.

What’s the point of this useless exercise? Once you optimise for G forces, speed, cost, lethality - you end up with a missile. We have those already. And we know this already. Give it more fuel and maybe loitering capability. Something with
