I don't really see AI as an existential risk (nor something that'll single-handedly starve people nor "go rogue" - unless one defines that as something like "having CVEs"). This is less about AI, per se, and mo

That page makes the argument for zlib & sqlite, but Daniel Stenberg makes some good points here[0]. My guess would be zlib is still number 1 though, even accounting for Daniel's considerations. [0] https://daniel.haxx.se

I'm curious about what you think they "tried and failed", and what exactly success looks like for you. You mentioned "code execution bugs" - what is that exactly to you? I presume you don't count HID emulation,

Juice jacking tends to use HID emulation - that's feature abuse, not CVE exploitation. The point is it isn't viable at any scale - nation states advise avoiding public charging because employees of companies they subcontract have

BadUSB-C[0] builds upon the original 2014 BadUSB's HID emulation approach but takes advantage of USB 3.x DisplayPort to process video stream to make decisions & validate the success of the HID emulation steps. It's too esoteri

No, and juice jacking is entirely possible right now. It's just more difficult to do than many other types of hw attack & too costly to deploy in random indiscriminate public ports, making it less than viable for most cases outside

You're technically correct (the best kind of correct), but in the context of this comment thread the comment I was replying to said: > many messaging softwares seem to not understand what feature parity is. That implies either no

by lucideer 3y ago
Understanding feature parity is about: 1. Can the protocol support it (well) 2. Is the tech mature enough / is there enough contributors to ensure the client adds support For a new tech only the first bullet point is relevant - from a

by lucideer 3y ago
When you say "to compete with Hollywood" you either mean one of two things: on quality or on box office. The latter is nothing to do with CGI or production budget: it's about marketing budget, in which AI has less to offer. T
