Please elaborate....

You are missing out on a lot. And I don't mean the social media apps, or any of that nonsense. Allow me to try and explain:

Maps: Knowing what's around me physically, up-to-date information, public transport routes, etc. I found some remote paths on CoMaps in the UK which I walked recently, without the aid of the app I would have not known about these.

AntennaPod: the wealth of information and interesting topics I've been exposed to via podcasts is hard to overstate.

Home Assistant: being able to control my home, optimise the energy usage, improve security.

AI: I can talk to an AI anywhere. Instantly upload a photo, for example I use this to identity plants.

None of these things try and draw my attention all the time - so they don't affect your focus. They are there when I need them, and then are in my pocket when I don't.

I wonder it bitorrent will provide a solution here?

Either very, it this tax story is true, it is completely rediculous and signifies complete desparation by France.

The same reason we name storms and hurricanes... It's easier to raise awareness, and refer to these things after the fact. More memorable then CVE-whatever.

I find it helpful at least...

It'll never happen unfortunately.

The next president will get elected, and then we'll go back to being best buddies with the US, including using their tech.

> Not only this, a significant number of developers have stopped looking at code

This is what I find frustrating about the whole AI/slop debate. Developers stopped looking at code a long time ago... Well before LLMs. Take for example a typical nodejs project with its 100s of dependencies. Is a developer going to look through the layers upon layers of code running their app? Of course not, there's to much of it. We've seen supply chain attacks even this week.

Actually what I think will happen is that all those abstractions, dependencies will become irrelevant now that an LLM can just write custom code to solve the business problem. This will massively reduce the supply chain problem.

Then have LLMs dedicated to scanning codebases for security issues.

> because AI-generated code is kind of notoriously terrible at security.

This is simply not true, perhaps it was in the past but recent models are very capable... To the point that I trust them more than humans to write secure code. It's all about the prompting. Have a step in your development pipeline whereby an LLM scans, checks, audits your code. Make it a different model/session from the LLM that wrote the code in the first place. Acts like an independent auditor.

> But if you're on the side of the industry where your job is to prevent things from being broken, then it really sucks

Is it? In using it at an opportunity to improve our devops pipelines, software supply chains, etc. Perhaps I'm weird and enjoy strange things? Not to mention that all these security incidents will require plenty of people to fix things = more paid work for us humans going forward.

Absolutely.

Replaced with trams, which i used extensively when visiting amsterdam. It was such a joy to just hop on/off.

No I think they used the stolen API keys to perform distillation.

I've been telling people this for a couple of months now, I'm actually struggling to use up all my tokens.

I have to ask what's everyone's issue with the requests to China. We've had 25 years of American big tech basically capture all our data, and use that to make insane profits.
