Right now there are a lot of new eyes on Signal, and not all of them are familiar with secure messaging and its nuances. Which means there’s misinfo flying around that might drive people away from Signal and private communications. 1/

I'm tired of reading about "sophisticated actors" who just asked for and were given the admin password. Has anyone produced a classification scheme to rate threat actors *and* the tactics they used? "Sure it was a Class 1 threat actor, but they just used a Class 4 attack vector". Links welcome!

Gather round kids. In my day we used to have to wait until the Super Bowl aired to see the Super Bowl commercials. That's why there were called Super Bowl commercials. Then we'd talk about them the next day, at work, in person.

This is what AI should be doing. Playing Dr. Dolittle and translating animals. I would likely tune into a reality show that has all the hot gossip and conflict from the colony. Real House Wives of the Cave!

"The only clue that users seemingly had of Siri's alleged spying was eerily accurate targeted ads that appeared after they had just been talking about specific items like Air Jordans or brands like Olive Garden"

Is it code-switching when my brain need a decipher which RAG acronym is in use. With AI projects on the rise, project managers are now using both "Retrieval-Aumented Generation" and "Red, Amber, Green" terms. It takes my human brain an extra 0.137 seconds to determine what's being discussed.

FCC voluntarily stopped regulating ISP rates under Pai, effectively saying it was a “states rights” deal. NY then passed a bill requiring ISPs to offer an even cheaper plan, and SCOTUS told them to pound sand when they whined about it. LMAO. Don’t make their abuse of regulations profitable.

Sure GenAI is mildly innovative, but did you know that Chicken of the Sea released a canned tuna that isn’t packed in liquid. It doesn’t require draining. Someone deserves a Nobel prize for this.
