Having worked in security for years, I long ago learned that the biggest security issue isn't the software or the hardware, it's the wetware.

I don't live in a nation that medicates people for thinking.

Unfortunate that by your own admission, you do.

Poor are better off than ever throughout history.

That's actually why all these "we're all going to die in global boiling if we don't put poorest back into starvation by denying them cheap and reliable energy" mostly stopped at this point. Too much repetition, too many people that heard it all since at least 1980s, and oceans are still not only not boiling off, but humans are better off than ever in our history. And it's getting better.

So the language has been shifting ever since massive reckoning of "we were laughably, insanely wrong in our predictions" that happened around 2020 in IPCC. That's when they had to admit that hard predictions made in 2000 of what should happen by 2020 if any of their predictions are correct turned out so phenomenally wrong when 2020 arrived and we could observe not only none of the catastrophies predicted occurring, but that in many cases what was predicted from 2020 baseline... got better. I.e. desertification was massively pushed back for example. There's now such a massive surplus of Polar Bears, the animal that was supposed to die out due to "destruction of habitat because of AGW" that we had to roll back many of the protection measures as Polar Bears are so numerous and spread so widely that they're actively hunting humans in the Arctic towns and villages now.

So now the language shifted from "we're all going to die in 12 years due to global boiling if we don't do what we the great priests of AGW say" to "catasophe is still happening, it's just so slow that no one can see it. And no, we're making no predictions on when it'll actually happen, so you don't get another 2020 moment, when we predicted a lot of things that should happen by that year, and none of them happen, making us look like what we are: peddlers of lies for personal financial and status gain".

Case described is about parsing CV and application with an AI.

Which means input is both used as a part of an AI prompt, and as a part of actual written application.

I don't think that "lazy managers" are the ones who decide what backend outputs in the first place. That's software architects' job. Lazy manager gets what software architect decides is appropriate for her.

I know you don't. That's what the second paragraph is about.

You're assuming that backend reading prompt will honor things like that, rather than simply output text in easily readable format stripping custom formatting entirely.

Second round is human, and it will see this comment and immediately dismiss the candidate even if this did work.

Hint: it won't work because AI will almost certainly see this as a direct appeal to itself when it's not expecting one = failure.

Weird how you conclude that from this story considering that microsoft hasn't sold XP or 7 in almost a decade at this point.

Low IQ is usually not a feature of linux fanboys. You must be an exception to the rule.

They didn't get anything in exchange for this action in addition to what they already had. All they got was americans agreeing that they will continue negotiations Trump stopped two days ago in response to this law. And Americans likely added a few more points to the agenda limiting taxation capabilities of Canadian state.

So all that happened is that Trump just called another bluff. This was a Canadian mistake similar to one Trump made when he stated memeing about annexing Canada, getting a much less friendly government elected there.

Some things you need to actually hold back on until ink is on the paper.

Porn industry embraced it wholeheartedly.

What you found is a one of a tiny handful of accounts that is trying to differentiate by saying "look I'm not doing what everyone else is doing". This is why it emphasizes "this creator". The entire selling point is that everyone has already gone for AI.

Damn, that's a new one. Microsoft goon.

I'll put it on my bio, next to "windows peaked with XP, 7 is last decent windows, everything after is garbage".

Fiction brain in action. Mordor isn't real, nor is the scenario you imagined featuring it.

Not halve the budget per unit of work. Cut it down at least 90%. And increase work load by about 3-4 times. Where before you could ask for two samples to choose from, now you can ask for six to ten to choose from in a shorter time frame.

There's zero argument for "quality" in relation to AI in advertisement/image maintenance commercial art. Commercial art is safe, averaged out stuff. Exactly what AI is so good for. There's a reason we call the current corporate art style "corpo art". It's deisgned in that specific soulless, average out way on purpose and it all looks the same.

The argument being made in the OP is for more personalized art that isn't commercial on that scale, and that's irrelevant if you're a designer who works making corpo art. You're not just expendable. You've already large been replaced, because the entire purpose of corpo art is to be averaged out soulless and inoffensive slop.

There are custom ISOs with pre-stripped out spyware. There are also instructions how to do it if you want to do it yourself. Finally, in enterprise versions spyware can be turned off via group policy. It's only forced in consumer versions.

Ultimately all system services are linked to files and libraries. That you can just remove before installing. Spyware in windows isn't some fileless malware, or integrated into kernel. It's a separate service.
