<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@kev" class="u-url mention">@<span>kev</span></a></span> I recently took a look at a current Huawei phone to disable bloat, seemingly every second app had something to do with AI and I couldn&#39;t even disable a single one of them from the phone! I love to play with AIs (especially local ones) but shit like that is just frustrating and annoying at this point!</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://hackers.town/@GeoffWozniak" class="u-url mention">@<span>GeoffWozniak</span></a></span> We may be comfortable with conventional wisdom statements like &quot;if it quacks like a duck and walks like a duck, then it is a duck&quot;, but how often do we stop and think what a duck actually is?<br />Is what we _think_ is &quot;walks like a duck&quot; an accurate picture of reality of just our preconception of what we think a duck is supposed to walk like?</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@kev" class="u-url mention">@<span>kev</span></a></span> the way things go, websites will only serve to AI training. And search engines will only exploit these AI bots.</p><p>It&#39;s time to build a new search engine concept</p>

<p>oh and them somebody comes along and wants to integrate this stuff with all of the stateful, centralized managers like ansible awx or terraform cloud and then you suddenly have those integration to care for too and then your company says &quot;we&#39;re migrating to X&quot; and of course that never happens - who in their right mind ever changes from jenkins to github, from puppet to ansible, from cdk to terraform, from terraform to pulumi, from on prem to aws, from mysql to postgres, from... never happens.</p>

@rin@post.ebin.club they always give me this “lasagna” at the hot pot restaurant but I don’t like it that much

<p>I&#39;ve seen so many developers (platform engineers) basically going from &quot;hello world&quot; (or index.html or equivalent thereof) straight to the periphery: &quot;let&#39;s build 5 different packages&quot; &quot;but we can make libaries out of it&quot; &quot;we should make it more generic and use a meta-template-transpiler something&quot; and next thing the quarter is over, your product dodifferent ways into 7 platformes absolute nothing but hello world but hey! you can deploy it 5 s with 4 concepts and it also now has nix flakes.</p>

<p>Oh, great. Computer security researchers have developed a proof-of-concept for a type of ransomware that would act when you try to *upload* a file. It would be able to encrypt any files in the folder you uploaded from, and any subfolders of it.</p><p>This is a proof-of-concept; the researchers have not seen any such attacks in the wild. But stay careful out there, okay?</p><p>Affects Chrome and Edge, but *not* Firefox or Safari!</p><p><a href="https://theconversation.com/cybersecurity-researchers-spotlight-a-new-ransomware-threat-be-careful-where-you-upload-files-219560" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">theconversation.com/cybersecur</span><span class="invisible">ity-researchers-spotlight-a-new-ransomware-threat-be-careful-where-you-upload-files-219560</span></a></p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/security" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>security</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/cybersecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>cybersecurity</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/malware" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>malware</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/ransomware" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ransomware</span></a></p>

<p>and guess what takes the longest time.. putting this damn periphy together and make it work smoothly. I&#39;m like 1cm away from throwing this all out (we have everything in makefiles) and slap the &quot;make deploy&quot; into github action and call it a day. You can do that!!111 Well ok, then I&#39;ll do it with just and do it like in this example: <a href="https://github.com/casey/just?tab=readme-ov-file#github-actions" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">github.com/casey/just?tab=read</span><span class="invisible">me-ov-file#github-actions</span></a> - I think there&#39;s even an article/rant about it somewhere on the internet.. the next issue is &quot;distraction&quot; --&gt;</p>
