Mighty fine AI you have there, be a shame if something were to happen to it...

Also, supposedly biggest MMA event Rogan doesn't want to be on.

Something is up

Rogan is a tool.

Interesting statement with various meanings :)

I just can't get his popularity, he isn't smart, he isn't a great speaker, his opinions on actually important stuff is often... just sad to hear, hyping up a 'bro effect and thats about it. Its like listening to that old buddy from primary school who struggled to get through high school, and now as an adult gathered some interesting opinions about the world, politics and humans that you really are not interested in.

Tons of better folks online, if somebody really has nothing better going in their short lives to listen to blahs for 3 hours, repeatedly. I guess there are worse ways to spend time though

He helped Trump win by promoting the guy right before the election, together with Theo Von. For clicks, and undeniably, money. Both are tools. One of them with a kick of a mule, still a tool.

'cause he's sponsored by perplexity

This! I've worked with a few developers I would consider net negative to their team and product, in that their removal would have increased 3-4 other team members productivity by say 20% each. Coincidently these developers were almost exclusively Indian immigrants. In organisation with poor corporate culture and the ZIRP (Zero Interest Rate Policy) days of hiring to signal growth and managers hiring to increase the number of reports (to signal importance) compounded the problem

Absolutely disgusting

I thought copy.fail is a privelage escalation exploit, become root from a regular user? Am I missing something?

How would "node architecture" make people vulnerable to this?

You have to have shell access to a victim first right? Or am I missing something?

Yeah you need native code execution, and if you have AF_ALG access there is clearly no sandboxing in place. At that point it's game over on Linux, there are too many bugs. Even if you fix all the known ones in the current kernel, by the time the version with those fixes is qualified and released (not to mention, the machine must reboot), new LPEs have been discovered.

To convince me Linux is full of kernel LPE bugs, can you share some of the bugs?

Look at kCTF results.

Look at the CVE database. Most of those UAFs are LPE. Many of the OOBs and many of the race conditions too. These are fixed in Linus' master but you are running an old kernel.

Then look at the KASAN reports on the syzkaller dashboard. Many of them are LPE. Many of the WARNs and crashes are revealing and underlying bugs that is also an LPE. Most of these never get fixed.

Then try pointing your LLM at the codebase and saying "find an LPE". It will find as many as you want (you will exhaust your tokens long before it stops finding bugs). 99.99% of them will be bogus so you need a way to evaluate them at scale, currently this is the weakest approach but we'll get better at it.

I can't actually point you to a list of confirmed LPEs coz the only way they get confirmed is when someone exploits them, but there aren't enough exploit authors to do this for all of them. If inference gets really cheap and someone builds a really good agent harness we might start to see it get automated at some point.

In an interview with Zelinsky Trump asks "why haven't you had an election? " Zelensky : "because we are at war" you can see the idea percolating then. People think I'm a nutter for suggesting there just won't be another election but that's where my money is. I'm waiting for his version of the Gestapo, ICE seems to be a proving ground

An important detail here is that Ukraine's constitution says they can't have an election while they're at war. The US constitution does not say that, and the USA has had elections during wars several times.

You're not a nutter. Trump constantly projects what he's going to do and no one takes him seriously because what he says is so beyond the pale. I explicitly remember the exact instance you're talking about because I thought the same thing as you are thinking.

There will be a sham election, like in Russia, but a sizable number of people will be unable to vote. Trump only need to steal the election in a few key districts

People like married women who changed their name, or foreign sounding people, they will be prevented to vote in 2026. ICE will guard polls to physically make people unable to reach the ballots

ICE is trump building a personal army

For machine tools I just use an oil can with a finer than normal tapered tip, this will depress the ball bearing in zerk / grease nipple fittings no problems, this also works with the ball oilers typically found on lathes etc. You can cut a tiny slit in the end too if that helps get oil in https://www.wentztech.com/metalworking/projects/convert-a-ch...

One place I worked at used Red Dwarf characters, Hollister, Cat, Toaster, Rimmer etc

TV show characters can be good

The relicense doesn't bother me. That straight up lie, though.

Pretty much. I think it's the whole virtue signaling and intellectual hand wavy dishonesty that really bugs me about these companies. They want to have the cake and eat it too.

Do companies like Apple say macOS is open source (I mean the entire OS, not just Darwin)? No. Some people are fine with it because we know this.

LSP (Language Server Protocol) a way for editors to talk to language tools to provide auto complete, warnings errors etc. this means the language tools can be written once and then any editor that has LSP support can use it https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_Server_Protocol

Not even particularly elegant code, for example, opacity is clamped between 0 and 1 in in the very next line a bounds check is made anyway.

  opacity = (opacity < 0) ? 0 : opacity;
  opacity = (opacity > 1) ? 1 : opacity;
  if(opacity >= 0 && opacity <= 1) {
      document.getElementsByTagName("BODY")[0].style.opacity = opacity;
  }
