Anthropic's Claude Mythos isn't a sentient super-hacker, it's a sales pitch — claims of 'thousands' of severe zero-days rely on just 198 manual reviews Many of the "thousands" of bugs and vulnerabilities it found are in older software, or are impossible to exploit.

Have you seen the new /pulls view on GitHub, yet?

If you opt in to the new experience, your pull requests get WAY more organized, with everything from custom views to collapsible sections to filtering by org and repo.

I mean, they won't grow until you plug them back into the ground, so I think it counts?

That sounds potentially very fun. We did something similar at work for an onsite, and it worked pretty well for that.

Especially since I remember teachers discouraging kids from using Wikipedia because it _could_ be wrong.

We've been discussing this at work too. We all have AI tools we can talk to, if I want to talk to a human it's because I want a human conversation.

A full disc image of Earth, as seen from the Orion Crew Module. The planet is a pale blue, swirling with white clouds and glowing slightly lighter blue in place from reflected light. At lower left, a large brown landmass is Africa, with Spain and Portugal with twinkling lights where the planet curves. At top right, auroras glow in a thin green glow, just barely separated from the planet's surface. Earth is set against the black of space (pic: NASA/R.Wiseman)

More context on this #Artemis II image:

* This is the night side, lit by moonlight. You can see city lights in Spain & Portugal, & a sliver of day at lower right

* The Sun is entirely behind Earth, which makes it a kind of solar eclipse, but w/ Earth doing the eclipsing instead of the Moon:

Pulling out and connecting weird lil details until they provide an interesting picture is more interesting than a top-level summary that's the average of what everyone has ever said

When I role played as the computer at my starship bridge simulator job (we did Star Trek simulations for 5th and 6th graders), I would never use pronouns.

“That is not a function of this computer.”

“This vessel is under attack.”

Etc. It helps keep the players as the main characters.

I enjoy pulling out my Nexus 5 and playing around with Ubuntu on it, I really like the interface. It's too bad it didn't take off more.

Grieving my Profession, Embracing my Medium

As humans cede more of our creativity to machines, it's more important than ever that we make art of any kind — painting, music, sculpture, dance, sport, and yes, code. How else are we going to process our grief at what we've lost?

Such a great phrasing of the problem. This is also why I've stopped working on tech-based side projects as much and focusing on things like writing, drawing, and music.

The virtuous circle The virtuous circle is the most powerful pattern in developer tooling. And it's the myth of the 10x developer that makes it hard to see.

npmx: converging communities The story of the many people and communities that converged to build npmx together

Congrats on the alpha launch @npmx.dev! Y'all are amazing ❤️

Let me tell you an open source story. A very personal one. A story of growth, downward spirals, and recoveries. Of a multitude of converging communities building tools for themselves. A story of collaboration and trust. And hope.

An Hour Before Showtime I am grateful that time is passed. I regret that I walked into it at all.

Going a bit more vulnerable today.

In 2022, an hour before going on stage at Vue Global Summit, my spouse at the time told me she wanted to start seeing other people. I'm long since free from her, but I regret that I walked into it at all.

I am deeply aware I lucked out in career and spouse and spend a lot of time paying forward the luck, because why are we here if not to try to make the lives of others better.

Gotcha, okay. So would something like Scots and English be considered a diglossia, or more standard bilingualism? Or something like American English and AAVE?

Just listened to it and loved it! I started thinking about different languages I know of trying to decide if they are diglossias now. Thank you for making this!

Did I understand correctly that part of being a diglossia is not realizing that you're in the middle of one while using a language?

Alysa Liu telling 60 Minutes “I love struggling, it makes me feel alive” is a legit revolutionary statement from a Bay Area native in a time when copious amounts of time and resources are being put toward convincing us to opt out of experiencing struggle, friction and self-actualization
