- Comment on The inarguable case for banning social media for teens 6 days ago:
Sounds like it’s the platforms that are the issue, not the kids. Would you believe that maybe the corporations havent been acting with ours or our children’s best interests at heart and should, shock horror, be forced into doing that? It’s almost like designing social media to be an ad casino shouldn’t have been allowed.
- Comment on AI models can generate exploit code at lightning speed 1 week ago:
I’m referencing this:
Keely told GPT-4 to generate a Python script that compared – diff’ed, basically – the vulnerable and patched portions of code in the vulnerable Erlang/OPT SSH server.
“Without the diff of the patch, GPT would not have come close to being able to write a working proof-of-concept for it,” Keely told The Register.
It wrote a fuzzer before it was told to compare the diff and extrapolate the answer, implying it didn’t know how to get to a solution either.
“So if you give it the neighbourhood of the building with the open door and a photo of the doorway that’s open, then drive it to the neighbourhood when it tries to go to the mall (it’s seen a lot of open doors there), it can trip and fall right before walking through the door.”

The vulnerability is the scary part, not the exploit code. It’s like someone saying they can walk through an open door if they’re told where it is.

I feel the same way, I would lose self respect purchasing a ticket… idk it feels like someone took an important part of my childhood and decided to ruin it.

- Comment on Dolphins is whales. 8 months ago:
So reading up on the evolution of whales for arguments sake has me realising all dolphins and whales are (as mentioned) from the same family.
Your traditional whale fits into “Baleen Whales (Mysticeti)” which have “soft, hair like structures on the upper mouth” and there are 16 species and 3 families.
Meanwhile there are also “Toothed Whales (Odontceti)” with 76 species and 10 families. They are smaller, actively hunt and almost always live in pods.
The most surprising thing I’ve learned is that the Baleen Whales typically have two blow holes…??? Also they do not echolocate but they do sing/chat.
So almost all your traditional large whales fit into the Baleen category and the traditional dolphin fits into the Toothed category. So there are key differences between them, but the overall family is whale.
This is a dumb argument huh

Dolphins are whales with teeth, a distinction that makes them just slightly not whales

My favourite use is to suggest a near miss: the other car missed the cyclist by a bees dick.

Huh, not heard that one
- Comment on Which is which? 11 months ago:
Same thought different reasoning: the expression “a bees dick” exists. There’s no equivalent for birds.
