Apple Exec : Why the FUCK are all these bugs being released on the internet for our OS.
The first sentence says that many AI bugs are "low-quality and sometimes entirely fabricated vulnerabilities generated by AI". It is unlikely that fabricated vulnerabilities will affect an OS.

Someone should explain supply and demand to Governor Abbott.
Potential power generation does not mean solar and wind farms magically appear overnight. Infrastructure like transmission lines also do not appear out of nowhere. You're also talking about deep red Texas which cares little about regulation. The problem is not Abbott is against any data centers forever. The problem is even in Texas, the infrastructure is struggling to cope right now.

Do they want them to spin up the supercomputers and brute force the passwords?
Apple uses 256 bit AES from what I remember. Theoretically using a single computer, it would take 10^59 years to crack a single key. Using all world’s computers including supercomputers, it will be less but not meaningfully less.
I assume this is really about them putting in a backdoor of some sort. Yeah, fuck that.
Yes, UK government wants Apple to modify their entire encryption scheme so that Apple can grant the UK government access to user data anytime that government asks. Existing data is protected unless Apple is forced to replace existing keys.

Well, what manner of person who thinks ahead decides to live hours away from teh workplace?
What part of "Before Covid Dell had generous remote work policies" is unclear to you?
I know - people who don't plan ahead.
The people I know worked remotely for Dell a decade before Covid, and Dell had no issues with them living hours away from an office
If you don't want to go back because you live several states away, that is definitely a you problem.
Wow you really don't understand the point. Team members live several states or countries from each other. When you have a large global company like Dell, that will happen.
. Y'all have so many excuses. Do a risk/reward analysis. Then if you want to live in Alaska, or wherever you want to live, and find employment there.
WTF are you talking about "risk/reward" analysis. I'll say it again: Before Covid Dell had generous remote work policies. No one said Dell people lived in a cabin in Alaska. They just lived far away from a Dell office. People, based on those policies, lived a few hours from an office rather than 30 minutes from an office. And Dell encouraged it.
And let's say we get that universal no one in the workplace Utopia. The cheap housing that is so tempting will just go up in price.
Affordable housing is just one reason why people would prefer not to live whenever you want them to live. Clean air, better schools. etc.
But I didn't move to say Alaska because I like it there, when the company is in New Jersey. Then again, guess I'm not very smart.
No you're not very smart if you think not living close to a Dell office == living in Alaska. Your entire assumption is based on very flawed logic.
