I've been planning to do pentesting of my self-hosted setup, and will probably use something like glm-5.3.. My stuff was secure from the run of the mill human doorknob-rattlers. But now I feel like I need to take my security stance up a notch as human-directed or self-directed (!) agentic systems seem like a next-level threat.

Its about a third of the amount of water used to irrigate golf courses across the United States.

(The number in the article doesn't specify whether data center water usage is just us-bound or global)

Cursor added 'made with cursor' to its commits recently. I guess its just the dirction things are going that the tools are now self-promoting.

Getting more pedantic, less than 1pct of the population is in California.

Pretty clear parent meant people who cross against the light / mid-block when there is a crossing 50ft away / stepping in front of the one car on the road when they could look up for one second and step out behind that car etc. in other words the people who put off 'main character' vibes.

Uhh, Yes? It is literally probably what this machine was doing in 2001.

What utility does the guy running a bonbon tè stall get from a frontier AI model anyway?

Yes but UI engineer performance is measured by user engagement and user engagement is measured by how much crap is clicked on.

Whats measured is whats managed, and so we have a bunch of unnecessary crap to click on because that pushes the engagement metric up.

I used to code ruby. Now in python land and am using flask. Theres conventions but no scaffolding. Ai code tools make the scaffolding feel redundant anyway.

This is a developer. Task manager is a project manager.

Should be afraid.. If people are more convinced an AI is human than a human is human, that means AI will be more likely to convince you to adopt their 'point of view'.

To put it another way, if an AI and a human post two different views on a subject, people are more likely to be swayed by the AI's point of view.

So for much cheaper now organizations can use AI at scale to sway public opinion in a way thats more effective than ever before.

AI summary:

1. NAD+ Injections for Longevity: NAD (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a molecule essential for cell function and longevity. Injecting NAD+ has become popular for improving metabolism, brain function, and energy levels, with some users reporting benefits like better sleep, improved workout performance, and increased vitality.

2. Celebrity and Athlete Endorsements: NAD+ injections are being used by elite athletes, such as Premier League footballers, and endorsed by celebrities. It's said to enhance endurance and improve performance in sports.

3. Scientific Backing: Research by Prof Shin-ichiro Imai suggests NAD can delay aging and improve quality of life, though there is debate on the efficacy of injections versus oral supplements. Imai supports NMN supplements as a more efficient way to boost NAD within cells.

4. Market Growth: The NAD market is rapidly expanding, with at-home injectable kits now available. These products are costly, ranging from £195 for two weeks to £395 for two months, but demand is increasing.

5. Concerns and Individual Dosing: High doses of NAD+ IV drips are cautioned against by some doctors due to side effects like nausea and headaches. Patients are advised to monitor and adjust doses for optimal results.

6. Lifestyle Factors: NAD levels naturally decrease with age, and lifestyle choices like stress, alcohol consumption, and poor diet can further deplete it. Boosting NAD levels might be a lifelong commitment for maintaining health and mitigating aging.

7. Reported Benefits: Users of NAD+ injections have reported increased energy, improved sleep, weight loss, and potential relief from conditions like Parkinson’s, menopause, and long Covid.

8. Long-term Use and Maintenance: While NAD injections may offer short-term boosts, many users eventually switch to oral supplements for maintenance due to the inconvenience of frequent injections.

9. Caution Against Miraculous Claims: Experts advise against viewing NAD as a miracle cure and recommend blood and genetic testing before use. Results may be more gradual and cellular, such as improving muscle insulin sensitivity, rather than immediate visible changes.

'Unrealized Gains' is one of the methods by which the wealthy avoid paying taxes. When you read the article about 'Billionaire X paid 2% taxes this year' this can be the cause.

It works like this: you pay taxes on income, or realized gains (sold your stock). But you don't pay taxes on unrealized gains.

You have TSLA/AMZN/NVDA stock which has gained $10M, and you have a mansion/yacht payment coming due. You could sell the stock and pay $2M in taxes...

OR

You can get a loan with your stock as collateral. You may pay 7% interest but you still OWN the stock and the S&P grows at a rate of 10%, netting you a 3% annual profit on your collateral stock. AND the interest might be tax deductible offsetting other income taxes you may owe. You pay 0% taxes because you didn't sell anything.

Search for 'buy borrow die' for more resources on this strategy. This new tax proposal is trying to address the problem that the most wealthy individuals in our society pay a much lower percent in taxes compared to the average individual using this type of strategy.
