> Anthropic says Claude wrote the exploit "after initial prompting," that it runs "arbitrary commands as root, without any credentials or user interaction" on servers with a multipath TCP listener, and that in its proof of concept "it takes 48 minutes to leak a kernel pointer and another five minutes to reach the shell command execution."

This is wild. I'm a firmware nerd, not a backend nerd, what percentage of TCP/IP servers are 'multipath'?

Also, since IPv6 isn't affected, wouldn't it be funny if this is what it took to get everyone to switch.

should also mandate that the license plate data that constitutes a 'hit' must be sent and stored at rest encrypted so that someone can't break into a camera and see who's beeing searched for.

A good friend of mine (we'll call him G) worked at an auto body shop. An older client came in and was bitching about how his brand new Mazda (IIRC) kept freaking out when he changed lanes, and asked G if he could disable the lane departure warnings. G showed him how and said, BTW, these are supposed to be a backup for if you fall asleep - they don't go off if you use your blinker.

Dude bro politely asked G to turn the lane departure warning back on.

I guess I must be an AI because I could not read that to save my life.

I wonder if this is like the “rotate an apple” problem.

Yes, I don't think that arresting people for the crime of not having money is a good idea.

We also cannot seem to fund any actual drug programs, because US citizens hate the idea of anyone getting something for free.

I’m interested in comparing the ratio of (accidents / miles driven) between the two.

Tesla seems like it has an engineering culture built around shipping whatever version of product they have at the date Elon announces, regardless of the quality (based on the engineers I have met who have worked there).

Without the context of “Antigravity” being a product name this headline is science fiction gold.

The site would be better if it linked to the actual regulation that prohibits each type of business instead of just making the claim “0 new factories of this type have been built”.

Oh hey, it’s the history of Indigenous people in North America (especially Canada and the USA) repeating itself in Greenland.

Make a biased test, call it impartial, then use it to ruin the lives of people who don’t meet some perceived standard.

Tell me how does reciting the alphabet backwards in a foreign language tongue mean one is a good parent?

Dang. This is one of those annoying cases of finding out something that I would clearly love exists only as it leaves.

I would have subscribed if I knew that the Farmer's Almanac still existed :(

We are in so much trouble as a society.

The real danger here is that ABC did it before the White House ordered or told them too.

Fascists rise in power the more scared we are to speak.
