That's quite naive. We're looking at 50 years of legacy software running Unix/Linux environments. If the attacker with an LLM finds one in minutes it might take you hours to even comprehend the finding. Guess what the attacke

This assumes all the open models are just a result of distilling Anthropic models. Which remains to be proven. And if they are, the point remains that Anthropic has a brittle product advantage that users and investors should be cautious abo

If you want to claim the fame of being the first with an exploit, responsible disclosure only gets in the way. Same as the CF2 author.

DirtyFrag and CooyFail2 are two exploits of the same bug. This one is a level less severe.

That, and they flag pretty much any random patch with a CVE these days, making it harder for distro maintainers to keep up. For this specific "bug" they took care to not mention any security angle in the commit message, making it

Over here in Germany, professors' job is "research and teaching". According to the internet, the author's university is a publicly funded university as well. I can see how AI can make you faster on the research side, but

> Here is something that gets lost in all the excitement about AI productivity: most software engineers became engineers because they love writing code. This resonates somewhat, but for a different reason. My mental model is that there a

Sounds a bit like what Claude Plan Mode or Amazon's Kiro were built for. I agree it's a useful flow, but you can also overdo it.

But you're a main project contributor. What about everyone else?

So essentially like AWS' European setup?

The EU sovereign partition is run by a German entity and only EU residents have access.

Same as AWS with their German subsidiary.

AWS is subject to CLOUD the same way European providers like OVH, Hetzner, or Stack it are. All of these companies operate in the US.

Sticking with your analogy -- your townsfolk getting energy for free. As rational people they must include the possibility of free service being over at any time in their planning and act accordingly. Otherwise they're just freeloadi

Am I getting this right - someone has been providing things for free for a long time and now people are complaining that they are relying on getting things for free and the "someone" cannot just change this?
