To find a security flaw, you only need to be right once.
So if you have a machine that has a shitload of false positives, and have a way to filter em quickly, you end up with a bunch of true positives.
Now to code, you ideally want to always be right, which is not quite ideal for a machine that does a lot of false positives.
It's a pretty fun scenario, specially if you're not the only one running the security flaw finding machine.
More like 1984, the UK government looked at that book and said "yep! we want that, but with a bunch of stabbing people from the middle east"
They don't want you to find the analog AI super computer they built in the 60's that made em write the warning "A COMPUTER CAN NEVER BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE, THEREFORE A COMPUTER MUST NEVER MAKE A MANAGEMENT DECISION", in all caps like that.
You probably can replace the Light emitting diode by a regular ass, non-light emitting diode
They just see computer number 1 and computer number 2 at the store.
And computer number 2 is getting comparatively much, MUCH better than computer number 1, even if can't run as many games.
It is a pretty terrible combination of skills.
Good at making faulty insecure code and good at finding exploits.
The perfect combination to make any sort of "i gonna fire everyone and replace it with vibe code" plans be even worse.
One of the many, many, many poor decisions of the militar dictatorship.
If you want to see a party that is nor left, nor right, but purely dumb, look no further.
Same kind of "scenario", land rich in resources being taken over by europeans, people being imported to it by force and eventually being transformed into it's own country, with it's own system and such.
But in the US, the founders of the country came up with a novel constitution and system because they were weird outcasts with different ideas, while Brazil just had "more of the same of the time".
The US was never a monarchy for example, never had a king. that was very weird for 1500ish, it was a country of lunatics.
Study what makes em so good, then "optimize" it so they last as intended and bigger profits can be made.
The US is basically Brazil but with a good constitution written by wacky crazy people that were crazy just on the right way, which is why it didn't ended up like the actual Brazil.
And 18 is next
