Have you seen this article on slashdot indicating how MI6 plans to use a honeypot to find spies?
It seems like they are giving away their secrets - which is unusual for a national security agency.

Making windows even more insecure than it already is.
I think when they add stuff like this to desktop operating systems they are running out of ideas.

I’m not sure I believe something can cost more per kilogram then ink jet ink.

they don't have any problem.

Ill bet the forests where they do this have lower biodiversity than those where they dont. You see the forest floor is also an ecosystem - wrecking it damages it.
Just another example of an ill thought out "climate band-aid"

If we carry on the path we are currently on its laughable we are even talking about 2050 being hospitable at all, i mean by 2030 clean water will be too scarce for everyone on the planet and all the domesticated animals we eat. Food Shortages and Crop Failures are commonplace today.
It is incredible to me like were acting as if we have time to procrastinate.

Why are we wasting time, money and research into something we know already?
Once again time wasted , money spent and no action taken.

Once again , there is no reason to refute the fact that we are on course for extinction
with only a 5% chance of changing trajectory.

Once the bottom of the food chain goes its gone forever.

Wait, you lost your 6 digit account number how?

It is well known to developers that writing a new feature is the easy part, debugging it is the hard part. Letting the AI do the “easy part” and having the human do the “hard part” doesn’t really help. Debugging tends to be the largest part of an accurate schedule, and it is the most uncertain part. People frequently make pretty accurate estimates of how long it takes to hit feature complete, but poor estimates of how long it takes to debug those features.

Developers should have an intuitive understanding of this, while product managers, and upper management should have an observational understanding (as in they should have seen it before many many many times and been able to learn it is true even if they have no idea why it is true).

So why is it any surprise to people that having AI write applications and humans debug them doesn’t really save much time?

Maybe, but that isn’t what seems to be going on with AI.

We don’t get the same “news” publication with AI and zero workers. We get a crappy news publication with one worker and AIs cranking out the same volume of articles as 14 workers, but the articles themselves are crap. They manage to get some level of readership and sell roughly the same ad volume per readership level as a “real” news publication. In theory that should show up on GDP because it is a bunch of revenue from ads that didn’t exist before, or maybe that one person would have been 14th of the personal of another publication, so it should look like that one person is 14x more productive.

We get AI in our watch telling us we should see our doctors because we “might” have hypertension. If we do actually see our doctors when we wouldn't have otherwise done so, GDP gets a little boost, one more doctor’s vist! Or it doesn’t get a boost if we move it up 3 months sooner. If we do actually have hypertension and would not otherwise have spotted it before a heart attack and death maybe that has another GDP boost, all the productivity of a person who otherwise would have died.

We also get AI generated hog butchering schemes and mass customized SPAM that slips past traditional SPAM filters. AI seems to be a big friend to scammers, or a big tool of scammers. I don’t know if it is boosting scammers productivity, but assuming it does, how does that get measured in GDP? More fraud moves money from people’s life savings into fraudsters accounts where presumably they spend it in part laundering it into ligitimate seeming income and then buy some luxury goods, or maybe sustenance goods. The people who got defrauded now need to work extra hard to build up a new retirement savings? Do they? Maybe this is an untapped statistic! A major source of GDP growth! We should defraud some people for science! For the dismal science in particular!

I don’t find liquid glass better (although the iPadOS 26 windowing system is much better), but it isn’t exactly like Apple does this every year, or two, or even three or five. They ran with skodomorphic for 7 iOS versions, then with the flat look for 9 versions. I think we are stuck with liquid glass for around a decade now.

Can you call a person a security expert who fails to secure their devices from theives?

Its quite clear that this civilisation does not possess the intelligence or clout needed to steer this ship away from climate collapse.
Unfortunately there is no planet B - only a naive schoolboy would think that sending rockets to, and colonising a desolate lifeless mars is possible without accellerating the demise of our home.

Nearly all so called "clean" water across the planet is polluted with microplastics, given that water is vital ingredient in the beer making process this is not in the slightest bit unexpected. Once again a study from the department of the fucking obvious.

Anarchists believe in abolishing authority, hierarchy, and coercion, primarily by ending the state and capitalism, and replacing them with stateless societies organized through voluntary free associations. They advocate for self-governance, collective decision-making, and mutual aid, emphasizing freedom and equality in the absence of coercive institutions.

I dont disagree with your sentiment.
