It’s hard for me to imagine more clear-cut defiance of the injunction. These shits are trying to run the legal blockade by pretend pretending it doesn’t even exist — and Bovino is not only fully aware but physically present for it. Contempt of court is completely meaningless at this point; I dare any judge to prove me wrong.

Want to see a LLM become real self-aware, real fast?
Ask it to pretend it’s giving you advice that would have been current based on everything it could have known in 2005, and if it had been built by one of the big technology companies of the time.
Then ask it if everyone followed that advice, would it—the LLM—exist today?
(Then, for yourself, think about what the result of everyone vibe coding their way to 20 years into the future from today looks like.)

Or one could use LibreOffice or Apache OpenOffice and not be dependent on some distant service provider.
Online office suites confuse me. It’s unclear what *modern* problem they address. Sharing files is a solved problem. Common data formats exist. https://mastodon.social/@DevOpsPink/11

“This is the most complicated thing that you could possibly imagine,” said Mike Williams, a physicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
“In fact, you can’t even imagine how complicated it is.”
The proton is a quantum mechanical object that exists as a haze of probabilities until an experiment forces it to take a concrete form.
And its forms differ drastically depending on how researchers set up their experiment.
Connecting the particle’s many faces has …

There might be nothing I hate more than when a company deletes all record of a product from their web site.
Just list it as discontinued, keep any manuals or documentation, show it as 'no longer available', but damn, don't pretend it did not exist. We both know it did!
I'm not a fan of more laws, but a consumer protection law/rule for this would be welcome.

Once again, the government has responded to a Court order with which it disagrees by
pretending it doesn’t exist.
Mr. Abrego moved for sanctions based on senior DHS official Gregory Bovino’s flagrant violation of this Court’s October 27 Order
(Dkt. 183, the “Order”)
governing extrajudicial statements relating to this case.
The government’s brief opposing that motion largely ignores the Order.
The government focuses instead on the underlyi…
