ok I feel completely insane asking this but like weren't we NOT blowing up rockets, like, 50 years ago. weren't we successfully sending rockets up that did not rattle apart. also weren't we like "ah yeah that was a fail" when the rocket fell apart instead of calling it a "partial success"

GitHub MCP suffers from the lethal trifecta for prompt injection: access to private data, exposure to malicious instructions + the ability to exfiltrate information Be really careful with this stuff: attackers can trick your "agent" into stealing your private data simonwillison.net/2025/May/26/...

"Could a machine decide to lay off an entire department based on a vague intuition it forms about the market while it half-listens to an Economist podcast during its morning Peloton ride? I don’t think so."

Tim Cook gave Trump a million dollars to stop this from happening and I for one am shocked that such a moronic fucking decision somehow backfired

Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

Gotta love it when bond yields rise because people realize other people don't like bonds as much as was thought. Bad bond auctions are Keynes's beauty parade in action

This openAI deal is such a bunch of bullshit lol. “AI is such a big leap forward in terms of what people can do that it needs a new kind of computing form factor to get the maximum potential out of it” - Altman Sure bro, sure!

Unironically they should buy up the domains for about 60 defunct local newspapers in swing states. Hire two reporters to write almost exclusively about highschool sports and new restaurants opening with every 10th article about how the local GOP is screwing over people.

"Yeah, rich people get the biggest tax cuts, but everyone gets at least a little tax cut" is not the right way to think about a bill that also cuts health care and nutrition assistance from the folks who get the smallest tax cuts: low-income Americans.

The nation’s air-safety system suffers from the same malady as much of the federal government: years of underfunding by politicians who somehow expect to get something for nothing, David A. Graham writes in The Atlantic Daily.

Forbes: The Qataris have been trying to get rid of that ostentatious luxury jet for five years, but no one would buy it. It costs too much to fly, costs more to maintain, and needs too big a landing strip. They had another one they unloaded on Turkey. Delicious. www.forbes.com/sites/jeremy...

In talks and in our online course thebullshitmachines.com, I worry about how the extremely high cost of training LLMs concentrates power in the hands of the very few to shape our information environment. Grok going off the rails with talk of White Genocide is a striking example.

Pretty incredible that Jeff Bezos' Amazon announced a "$5 billion-plus" partnership w/ a Saudi AI co launched by Mohammed Bin Salman and sent CEO Andy Jassy to meet with him less than 7 years after MBS murdered Jamal Khashoggi, a columnist for Bezos' Washington Post. techcrunch.com/2025/05/13/a...

Found a new low in desperation of companies pushing AI - clicking on a search result in bing - takes you to an msn website created on the fly by their “copilot” bs. I double-checked the URL before clicking and had to click on the marker for external link to actually find the source. #asshole #ux
