It told me Lake Baikal was 500,000 sq Km.
Oddly I went and searched again to try and screenshot that, but neither google nor bing opted to give me the AI summary.

In recent times, open-source developers have been met with an uptick in receiving debatable or, in some cases, outright bogus CVE reports filed for their projects without confirmation. Are read-only bugs still bugs?
Posted not so much for this particular incident, but how it seems to be an example of a new attack on projects: file a security report on them. Like swatting, but for code.

If they can't hack it, better "take it down" by all necessary means, so that people download another one that got hacked

That's an apt metaphor I think.
It's relatively easy, too, just point a code scanner at it. There isn't a single one that won't false-positive. I'm not sure it'd even be possible to build that. You'd need too much context about use-case which isn't going to be in the code. So yeah, just like swatting or DMCA takedown as side-channel attack.
Ooo... not specifically to bolster AI, but it would be a good idea maybe to have language features which did that.
In C# it might could be done with attributes. The attributes would be different ways to add that context.

A modern 8 bit design, built using 1950s thermionic valves that glow and heat the entire room. Feel the burn of power!
Why bother with baseboard heaters? They can't calculate the Fibonacci sequence

Here's an idea... Say you did do exactly that... you mined a coin in a very novel way.
Since they are uniquely identifiable, you'd in a way be creating a kind of crypto-art.
That is, your coins may actually be worth more kinda like real coin misprints and such can command more than face value.
"Yes, but these coins were mined with an array of valves."
Proof of authenticity is hairy, but still.

Russian hackers who broke into Microsoft's systems and spied on staff inboxes earlier this year also stole emails from its customers, the tech giant said on Thursday, around six months after it first disclosed the intrusion. That's Microsoft's job

They must have used Linux, otherwise MS would have immediately known about them.

Any hacker who reads my emails would probably die of boredom.

The decision to withhold Apple Intelligence from EU countries amounts to a “stunning open declaration” of anticompetitive behavior, according to the bloc’s vice-president and competition regulator Margrethe Vestager. They were looking forward to suing Apple for anti-competitive behavior for shipping Apple Intelligence

"We decided not to compete in this market."
"That is anti-competitive!"
"What?"
|
|
|
|
|
"If you don't compete in this market then who will WE compete against?"
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

The list of withheld new "features" is telling as two of them are aimed specifically at the Apple market as Android has had screenshare and mirroring for a while. This sounds more like Apple is throwing a fit instead.

In other news, the EU parliament passes a law allowing forced sales in the EU of any product elsewhere, under penalty of law.
I forsee that the next step will be Apple leaving the EU market completely.

Probably...
They should try the same with META.
I might probably miss Apple, but I would definitivelly not miss the other

Don't look now, but the era of low-code/no-code development may be passing us by faster than we ever dreamt it would. Have no fear. Someone will re-re-re-re-invent it shortly

MoonBit is an end-to-end programming language that’s optimized for WebAssembly, while also compiling to JavaScript and Assembly code. For those who always wanted to moon their code

Brooks thinks it’s impressive technology, but maybe not quite as capable as many are suggesting. I'm sure his stuff is more important
