Nano Banana Pro has blown the rest LLMs out of the park. It's wild to think how powerful these models will be in another 5 years.

I read the chat, and a few things stand out that AI should handle better, regardless of context. If a word like suicide is mentioned, it should immediately drop any roleplay or other activities. It's similar to how, in India, mentioning 'bomb' in an airport or plane leads to being questioned by authorities.

Also, it's alarming how easily a 14-year-old can access a gun.

Yes, Namecheap remains my second choice. Cloudflare's interface is so clean, and its transparent pricing ensures you never have to second guess costs or worry about being overcharged, especially useful when managing many domains.

Now consider getting same visual indicators for ALL legit emails not just big companies. Which case would have a bigger recall value?

For a malicious actor spoofing a combo of SPF + DKIM + DMARC + BIMI won’t be a trivial job.

Of course I understood your larger point on barriers to entry for a malicious actor.

If a thing like BIMI is not widespread, would it even help an average non-tech Joe who won’t even understand the reason behind that checkmark on a logo?

Now that certificates are free, of course, all phishing sites use Let's Encrypt. Evaluating a website's legitimacy using SSL should not have been initiated by browser vendors. The messaging was wrong for the non-tech folks. They do not have anything to do with the site is fake/fraud/malicious. It was just the data-in-transit is safe or not.

BIMI needs an LetsEncrypt equivalent of VMC to take-off. It's prohibitively expensive for small businesses.

Bill Gates has been a long-time fan of Sal Khan. In fact, I first learned about Sal Khan over a decade ago when online publications reported that Bill Gates was using Sal's videos to teach his kids.

Great review.

I wonder how will these headsets affect eyesight?

Verisign sued ICANN! Why? What’s the full story?

Would love to see what others have to say on this but I suspect Apple replacement batteries are inferior compared to the one that comes with the new phone. 4 years of usage and battery max capacity was around 76%. I replaced my iPhone X battery last year. The new one I got is at 86% already and it is not even 12 months. (No usage pattern change. I replaced it from an Apple Store.)

My understanding of this XKCD:

It’s a subtle yet poignant reminder that our inclination, as tech-savvy individuals, is often to envision sophisticated technical exploits when considering hacking scenarios. However, the stark reality is that, in the vast majority of cases, both individuals and organizations fall prey to breaches not through intricate code manipulation, but rather via the art of social engineering. (beating the sh*t out of someone can be thought as an extreme form of social eng.) This comic underscores the importance of understanding and mitigating the very human vulnerabilities that persist at the heart of cybersecurity.

Only Apple can make people clap and screech for introducing a freaking charging port - USB C. :)
