Yeah, Claude Code. I have the $100/month Max plan. I run 3-5 instances “in the background” (just another terminal) while I work. It really helps work through the backlog of “easy-ish things that I eventually need to do, but are relatively low priority.”

Why not? I regularly have a couple Claude instances running in the background chewing through simple yet time consuming tasks. It’s saved me many hours of work and given me more time to focus on the important parts.

No, it is not. This is precisely why we have the term E2EE. An escrow agent having your keys but pinky promising not to touch them is indistinguishable from the escrow agent simply having your plaintext.

Unless you’re fine with the escrow agent and anybody they’re willing to share the keys with being a member of your group chat, in which case my original point still stands.

E2EE means only your intended recipients can access the plaintext. Unless you intend to give the government access to your plaintext, what you described isn’t E2EE.

That’s insane. 13 hours of work + commute. After 7 hours of sleep you only have 4 hours left in your day for literally everything else.

The United States has many allies. Obviously the US and UK have a “special relationship.” Then there is AUKUS. Then NATO. DoD calls a number of SEA countries “allies,” including Japan and Korea.

Stating that the US has no allies other than Israel is unequivocally false.

On the contrary, it’s a very strong claim.

The guards could decide they’re not getting paid enough and steal the data. Or the government could arrest them. Or the government could MITM the data center. Or any hundreds of different scenarios.

At the end of the day, the only thing preventing somebody from accessing the data is that they just… don’t.

This is very weak security and it is why cryptographers and security professionals call it “effectively plaintext.”

If the chat is not end-to-end encrypted, which Telegram “cloud” chats are not, then by definition Telegram (the company) has access to the chats. Full stop.

> IMO it is a questionable decision to spend CPU resources on randomization …

It takes about 3 ns to choose a random starting bucket, which is basically free relative to the iteration itself.

It was not supposed to /universally/ replace C++.

It was supposed to replace C++ in projects where the developers would’ve otherwise reached for C++ simply because it was the default language choice.

What are employees supposed to do? They’re not the police, they can’t arrest anybody for stealing. And they’re most certainly not a deterrent for these kinds of these bulk thefts.

Plus, it’s incredibly unfair to the employees to make it their problem. A cashier or stocker or whatever shouldn’t be responsible for doing anything other than calling 911.

> Why shouldn't I want them to be running drones over our houses?

Because it’s creepy.
