I've never heard of "Google it". I've only ever said "Input it to a web search engine".

? Doesn’t the code exec happen upon merely launching Cursor against a repository, without giving an agent any tasks? That’s clearly an issue at the Cursor application level, not some inevitable risk caused by the non-deterministic nature of

I would file a CVE for any program that places untrusted content into PATH and invokes non-fully qualified executable names - not for the shell.

Yeah, but you can easily mitigate it by searching for the real git in known system locations and using whatever you find there (or allowing the user to configure the path). I believe that's how VSCode does it

Since there are no approval dialogs, it sounds like that doesn't even come into play here. That is the "gate" (to use the AI parlance) that Microsoft places on code execution in workspaces, though, and I would expect Cursor t

The user's code folder? You mean the code I frequently pull from untrusted sources, unlike my .bashrc? Opening a GitHub project for review should not mean arbitrary code execution. Of course, that ship has long sailed, for all major ID

And what'll the prompt say? "Do you want to run git.exe?"? I'll probably assume Cursor needs to run git but permissions got messed up somewhere and click right through that. I haven't used Windows in a while so pard

Temporary in the sense that it's a stop or two away from getting laid off.

This comment betrays a misunderstanding of history and of what fascism is and doesn't even engage with the article's points. A totalitarian fascist state does not come into being all at once; it emerges in steps that tend towards

Call me a relic of a bygone era of seriousness and decency, but I don't think the White House should be in the business of mocking individuals online, either. But I know we're well past that point.

Why not? If it's high-performance, it's fine.

It shows no such thing. The officer got out of the way and was fine afterwards in both videos. This is a man who was angry and possibly traumatized by a prior incident involving a car. He should not have been allowed to carry a weapon

JD Vance, man. What a mendacious piece of shit.

Actually, the case law seems pretty clear in the other direction. Deadly force is not justified once an officer has evaded a vehicle that might hit them. "Cases where police moved out of the way of moving vehicle and exercised deadly f

I share the author's perspective that LLMs are not fun for programming. I don't use them to generate code, save for small snippets to demonstrate some concept or do something rote that I wouldn't enjoy writing myself. However

I'm a naturally socially awkward person, due partly to personality and partly to social anxiety disorder. I don't think I have the social intelligence/agility to pull off half of these maneuvers. Just reading about the author

You sound a little like me. I wasn't aware people thought like that until my partner told me her thoughts took the form of a constant stream of well-formed English. My default mode of thinking isn't natural language (though I can

This is part of it, but everyone to some degree has discomfort with being disliked and will do things to avoid it. At least in my experience, social anxiety is much more about the cognitive distortions that convince you others dislike you,

You probably shouldn't accuse others of being ungrounded in reality if you don't keep up with reality. Regardless of what it is called, it is unconstitutional and illegal; however, that does not seem to matter to this administrati

It's not a lie. "I don’t think stupid social media activity should ruin a kid’s life" does two things: characterizes endorsements of racism and eugenics policies as "stupid social media activity", and asserts that e

For reference: JD Vance said that another DOGE staffer, who resigned after it was reported that he'd publicly come out in favor of racism, eugenics, and normalizing hate against Indian people on Twitter, should be rehired because it wa
