There is probably a lot of overlapping factors, for example I would think that the general dislike of genAI in the art/creative scene (which skews left) would play a role.

> I'm more curious why the top post in this thread is solely attacking the guy's character and not refuting any of his claims.

I read the blogpost and was left waning on the post actually making strong claims. "The biggest starred PoCs on Github are not viable exploits" does little satisfyingly justify "This vulnerability is not a big deal". The kind of malicious actors who would exploit this vulnerability at scale have no incentive to make their own versions public and without the author showing some serious expertise I see little reason to trust them at their word.

>I'd hate to upset all the 'this guy is Keyser Söze' internet detectives, but you've described 90% of posters here (including yourself).

Exactly, it however does not really apply to the actors warning of the exploit, from what I can tell there is at least some track record there.

Maybe it is, but in the current age of AI-Vulnerability research I am not going to trust that there are no obscure exploits that breaks that sandbox.

But thats my point, I trust PHP in the same way that I trust the apple cert process. For the most part implicitly and by reputation.

Maybe I missed the news on this but I have not heard of truly malicious apps on the app store (talking bricking your phone, exfiltrating your data or something of that severity).

Because its not realistic to do actual proper due diligence for this. Take the PHP fix from yesterday, I did not read the source of what they actually fixed, nor do i have the ability to understand it. I still installed it in my org because I have trust in the system that created it.

Its similar with apple, I have the reasonable assumption that whatever I install from the app store is not going to brick my phone, steal my data or be a giant resource hog that just runs in the background.

I think this is referring to the fact that the chrome IOS app is just a chrome wrapper for web kit and not "actual" chrome.

This would be Romania, specifically shortly before and during the fall of communism, there were all kinds of weird incentives in place to encourage the birth rate, for example military engineers (like my FIL) where able to get out of deployment to rural infrastructure projects if they had a (pregnant) wife or a newborn. So a good chunk of his unit had children in a span of give or take 4 months, which coincidentally was about a year after an upcoming deployment to build a dam in a godforsaken area of the country was announced.

In my mind age and this shift in focus are at least somewhat linked. 23 year old me would be pissed at 30 year old me for not moving to a FAANG company and instead focus on marriage, those 7 years did teach me a lot of important things about myself and the world.

My Wife comes from a country where getting married and having kids before the age of 20 was very much the norm at the time, which led to a lot of people having children at a time where they were not ready for that responsibility.

At least for me it did, 10 years ago I was in the first year of my career so all I wanted was to climb, with no regard of what bridges need burning to make that happen. I'm now at a stage where I have is less to prove so those toxic traits have faded.

My Wifes parents on the other hand might not have grown up but on the other hand they would have divorced way sooner without a child forcing them to stay together

33 year old with a kid due in a few months time:

I would not want 23 year old me raising a child, I was way too status and money obsessed then and could not provide my son with the model of what I personally deem a good man.

My wife had (too) young parents and it left lasting damage, they dragged her into interpersonal spats and their worries about money before she had the tools to properly process it.

I've rarely been this disappointed by an article. This stuff (process integration into ERPs for specialized ECommerce operations) is 90% of my career, yet I dont really know if I can extract anything from this article.

Surely the (human) author has plenty of in-depth experience with exactly this topic, but without knowing how much of what is in there was cobbled together by the platitudes about the topic from the AI training data its impossible for me to challenge my own biases.

For example my instinct has always been that letting a customer get to a checkout without a sanity check for stock values creates more long-term issues than post-checkout checks solve. This article uses post-checkout checks as a given. It also seems to imply writing orders directly into ERP from the Plattform instead of having an on-platform storage of the order that then gets synced into the ERP. How much of this is the authors real experience in the business versus an AIs assumption of how this process works.

The human equivalent is poaching/hunting without a permit, which humans are not allowed. It's not like we can issue permits to cats and make them follow it.

Cats also routinely go into other peoples houses and either get themselves stuck or hunt rats/mice there, also something that humans generally are not allowed to do.

An extreme example would be Maos Great Leap Forward, where there was a human-led drive to exterminate sparrows as part of pest control, which in turn led to famines because sparrows also served as pest control for insects.

Humans are very good at introducing invasive species (domestic cat, kudzu) and pretty bad at forseeing the impact they have

Mhh, intriguing.

I would also say they would at least need to be neutered in that case so they dont reproduce with the feral population, but from a predatory perspective that would probably be fine then.

I would still not let our cats go out, my wife is pregnant so toxoplasmosis is very scary and bell or not we would be terrified of them getting lost or getting run over by a car or worse.
