And there are surely no workarounds.
Yes, you're right. No point in having laws, people can just break them. Might as well make it legal for corporations and billionaires to buy favour from politicians like in the US.
Yes. In socialist societies, the government owns companies. In capitalist societies, companies own the government.
Not everywhere. In the US this is a choice. In Canada, corporations are not allowed to contribute to political parties or campaigns, and individual contributions are capped at under $2,000 CAD.
All requests are potentially malicious... Best err on the side of liberty
This is not about stupid people doing harm to themselves. It's about criminals using state-of-the-art AI to harm other people.
... it straight up refused to respond stating that its "cybersecurity safety policy" would forbid responding to such request. Obviously, any debugging session could just as well be motivated by "looking for exploits", but this is just ridiculous...
What would you prefer? A model that errs on the side of caution and occasionally refuses a legitimate request, or one that is more lax and occasionally helps a user with criminal intent? We live in an imperfect world. It's not "ridiculous" just because it wouldn't do something you asked, when you yourself recognize your request could have been malicious.
Dell can't match Apple because Win 11 wants 16 GB RAM to boot to desktop and 32 to be useable.
Windows 11 absolutely does not require 16GB to boot to desktop. And on my work machine, even with a large number of windows running, it rarely uses as much as 16GB, let alone 32GB. It's OK if you're not a fan of Microsoft, but don't post blatant exaggerations as though they are facts.
Some $25m (£18.6m) in prize money is up for grabs — with cash prizes for winners.
I heard one of the participants interviewed on the radio. While he's been struggling to break records in the Olympics, he sees other people winning million dollar prizes in enhanced competitions. He pointed out realistically how many years of winning it would take him to possibly earn a million dollars by more conventional competition. I'm not saying I approve of the enhanced events, but I could understand his perspective. Ultimately it's his body, his choice.
The tunnel segments... weigh more than 73,000 metric tons, and have to be placed within a tolerance of 3 mm.
That is mind-blowing.
It's clear that in places like the EU, Russia, Canada, or China, un-bugged non-surveillance-enabled computing is more and more unwelcome.
Canada is the home of OpenBSD, which is not only open source, but was founded largely in response to strong cryptography being classified as a "munition" is the US.

Haven't heard that term before. I like it
cPanel is urging all customers and web hosts to update immediately.
For hosted websites, is this not something the web host should be doing for their customers?
> It does a great job of following the coding patterns and conventions YOU demonstrate in your code base
I didn't need AI for that, why now? And maybe I want it to write code better than I can.
Maybe you want to to write code faster than you can? I used Claude to build an entire an entire web-based application with SQL Server backend from scratch in less than a day. Is it the *best* code that could possibly be written? Probably not. Does it work as intended? Yes.
Some people only open up to tell you that they're closed.
