the problem is Gmail accepting emails from domains that have no MX records!

Even lazy spammers, who didn't even bother to create MX records for their fake, auto-generated domain, are getting into Gmail (Spam folder mostly, yet, why not reject it entirely?)


the phrase 'Humans will never again...' is just enough to signal one not to continue reading anything in this article.

If a web application is vulnerable to sql injection, there are 4,732 ways you can ruin/still a database. Yet it is all one single vulnerability.

Now, either those are 1k+ unique distinct techniques, or closer to my Sql injection example.

There is no real data attached to the post. And in general, open ai marketing already gained mileage of reputation amongst us.

Most likely kernel is not that vulnerable as they made it sounds.


Most of these bugs are far worse than that, actually. SQL injection lets people mess up your database but most of these let you get root on the box, which means not only can they mess up your database but they can also make your SQL installation mine crypto and grab your SSH keys while they’re at it. This is why kernel bugs are generally considered to be quite bad.

If that was true, why are the Linux maintainers hard at work discussing and patching the issues?

> When the autonomous scan and manual analysis finished after 10 days, 61 LPEs had already been patched upstream, 43 had staging patches, and 299 were being reported and discussed publicly.

If only the kernel maintainers considered the thought which first came to your uninformed mind, they would have saved some effort...


> being reported and discussed publicly

And yet the article does not reference any of them. So of the 1000 they found, 400 were already public. And the other 600 we have to believe.


Nginx is written in c.


Are you comparing their one-person project to nginx? Linux is written in C and out-of-bounds bugs are still found.


I commented on the statement “There is a reason why C is not used for web servers today”.


Assuming that for an llm all languages are ≈ equal, the developer factor matters most, and thus the language you know best is the best one, given your ability to correct, direct and orchestra the llm symphony. That been said, obviously this should be examined per task, as some aren’t capable of performing tasks other can.


> the language you know best is the best one

I almost never read the code now so how well I know the language is pretty irrelevant.

What's most important is how well the language can give feedback to LLM while developing.

Second most important factor is how good technically is the final artifact.

Rust seems to be quite good for both.

Speed of iteration would be cool but LLM thinking takes the bulk of time anyways.

Live debug through something other than computer use would be cool as well but I don't know how well LLMs can use auch things for any given language. I just usually tell it to heavily instrument code and put in debug bridges in the app its building to inspect and ivoke stuff while the app is running.


Indeed!

For the simple prompt to Claude Fable:

    let's write a small tcl/tk app for fun.
    a small tiny UI to manage a to do list.

I am reading a comment (1) by a person (2) who read an article on a newspaper website (3) discussing a book (4) written by someone about the life (5) of Stephen Hawking.

What I read !== Stephen Hawking.


By that logic don't read anything at all.


? It's not hard to find material based on primary evidence and direct observations of it. That is fundamental to all scholarship and also, to a significant degree, journalism, law, etc.


They specifically said

> What I read !== Stephen Hawking.

And by that logic one cannot know anything or anyone by merely reading about them, which I find to be absurd, hence my comment.


Words will never be a human, for what it's worth. May as well delete that code path, as it'll never be reached.
