Apropos of this second-latest comment on this fascinating thread, if your argument boils down to stuff that was removed from a draft spec three years ago, then your argument might be moot:

Imagine:
You are these parent of an adorable 4-year-old kid. They have made a toy airplane out of spare cardboard. Sadly, during play the wing has fallen off. You, a wise parent, produce a piece of duct tape and tape it back on. Your kid asks: "but what if the tape breaks, or the other wing falls off?" Dutifully, and with a completely serious manner, you duct tape the other wing, and then with a sharpie you write "Please DO NOT fall off!" on each wing. "There," you say, now the wings will not fall off. "
Your child happily returns to their play.
Imagine:
You are boarding a Boeing airplane for an intercontinental flight. Just the other day you were reading news about the emergency exit door falling off a Boeing airplane during flight. Thankfully nobody was injured in that incident, but a passenger could have been sucked out the gap and killed. As you walk down the aisle towards your seat at the back, you notice that around the emergency exit door of this plane, there are some scratch marks. It looks like it might not be 100% seated in place. You see several rolls worth of duct tape slapped onto the gaps between the door and the frame. In sharpie, someone has written "Please DO NOT fall off!" on the duct tape.
This is a post about #Agentic #AI.
To clarify: there are a host of reasons why using Claude Code is unethical in the first place, besides the fact that its a danger to its users. These make it unethical to use it even for a child's-toy-like application. But the source code we've just witnessed in the recent leak is *exactly* this level of "engineering." If you see an app that claims to be "programmed with AI" and it has any possibility of failing in a way that could harm you (for example, if it connects to the internet, meaning that poor programming could allow hackers to take over the device you run it on), my advice is: "Do not use it and warn your friends and family."
P.S. yes, this advice does apply to Microsoft Widows at this point, although that can be a tougher bullet to bite.

Zionists come in all shapes and sizes but they all share one thing in common: they’re all complicit in genocide.

#ForAllMankind S05E10: is there nobody in the #SONY production team old enough to remember a correct #DOS prompt? 🤔
A bit embarrassing considering the overall situation of this scene. 🤷

Screenshot of an amber colored screen that starts with A:/ and some cyrillic letters.

In reality, the path would have been A:\ with a back-slash instead of a forward-slash.

However, even that is questionable since A: was the first floppy drive letter and C: would have been the hard disk which is most likely the boot media for a scifi spaceship. So it should have been C:\

A tranquil and inviting forest scene unfolds in this image, capturing the quiet beauty of a woodland trail in late autumn or early spring. The perspective is from behind a hiker, who is looking ahead at a winding trail that disappears into the distance. The hiker is wearing a pink headband and a green backpack, suggesting readiness for an outdoor adventure.

The trail is flanked by trees, their branches mostly bare but adorned with a few lingering brown leaves, adding a touch of seasonal transi…

I couldn't care less about a bunch of rich people in Brooklyn, I just read the article for the delicious drama. However, about halfway through the article, I started to see so many #FreeSoftware parallels.
1) Volunteers spend countless unpaid hours creating/maintaining something to better their community.
2) For-profit business packages it up as part of their offering.

"I've lived in the neighborhood since November 2020, we bought a house," Ria Harracksingh, an Elite Minds parent and the school's director of operations, told Hell Gate. "So, when the garden started to really just be stonewalling us, it became not about the kids. For me, it became about, 'Hey, I pay a ton of property taxes. We pay a ton of income tax there. These dollars are going to this garden that won't even let me access it as an individual!' So it became pretty personal on that front, too."
"I think from their perspective, making noise and contacting everybody they can about this is going to speed things up," Jonathan Stead, the garden's community partnership coordinator, said. "If anything, it slowed things down because our limited time has gone to responding to them, responding to GreenThumb about accusations that they're making about us, and discussing the Post story. This is all time that we could have devoted to try and get this done."

"At the beginning, we didn't even see…
"It wasn't an option for us to continue the status quo, which was, I guess, [Elite Minds teachers] had a key and would come and go as they pleased," he said. "For organizations, it's a separate process, and it's not something community gardens have to do, but we chose to do it. It's been an enormous amount of work to try to get the process put together." Stead told Hell Gate that Urban Meadow and GreenThumb have been trading a draft of the new policy back and forth, but that due to time constra…
"Misconceptions about what community gardens even are, fundamentally, are pretty rampant," Roopa Kalyanaraman Marcello, another Urban Meadow coordinator, mused. "People just don't know that community gardens are not parks. They are very different from a New York City park. When I'm in Urban Meadow, the playground is right next door, and I see the lovely Parks Department folks in there cleaning up, taking the trash out. And I'm just like, 'I wish you would come in here and do that!' But no one h…
