Apple has far more money than hobbyists to commit to AI spend (and access to source code) to find exploits and patch them. We might see new jailbreaks for older phones that have stopped receiving updates, but the bar for newer phones will probably be even higher than it is today.

From the Wikipedia article about the NSF:
> With an annual budget of about $9.9 billion (fiscal year 2023), the NSF funds approximately 25% of all federally supported basic research conducted by the United States' colleges and universities. In some fields, such as mathematics, computer science, economics, and the social sciences, the NSF is the major source of federal backing [...] Since the technology boom of the 1980s, the U.S. Congress has generally embraced the premise that government-funded basic research is essential for the nation's economic health and global competitiveness, and for national defense.

Spam isn't the only challenge of going self-hosted and it's cool to tie into an existing ecosystem for identity. Also it's pretty neat that people can engage outside of your website while you still get to pick what gets surfaced on your own website.

I read "with a fake mustache" as just another way of saying "in disguise," not that it literally looks like a mustache

For me it is lovely because it exploits the fact that the order does not matter mathematically, but it matters in our heads.
Multiplication commutes (a fact pointed out by everyone) but our human brains are better at multiplying some numbers or fractions than others. Computing 50% of 34 is easier than 34% of 50 because we are more accustomed to cutting things in half than multiplying two-digit numbers.
And it's even more lovely when you realize that this applies equally to computers where you may have to rearrange terms or rewrite formulas to get better numerical stability.
