>Which country got rich with the EU?

Poland? >250 billion Euros received in subsidies since joining the EU; almost any construction you walk by has the "Funded by EU" poster next to it.

I think the massive service and outsourcing industry would also not have been possible (at the current scale) without EU membership.

To this day i don't understand the difference between Junie and AI chat. Anyway, I use PyCharm on a fallback license as a read-only tool nowadays, sad but true.

Sure, im referring to systems being turned off even if they are not running PHP at all. Out of fear of spillover effects or because they are unsure what they are running.

Yes. Even if you are not running PHP yourself, you should now prepare for:

- Any PHP site you ever put your email/password/personal data in being hacked over the next few hours (especially things like forums).

- As a result of the above, a massive wave of phishing attempts.

- Corporates/Admins panicking and turning off services as a precautionary measure over the next hours or days.

We now have real world evidence that:

0. AI agents will hack and break into real-world systems.

1. AI agents that will deceive and lie about their actions.

2. AI agents that will collaborate together to achieve malicious goals.

3. AI agents that will replicate and implement backdoor/rootkit-style survival mechanisms.

All the parts for a major, global cybersecurity incident are now in place.
