As if there weren’t enough bad takes from 404. Like the argument is that it’s better to have software with unknown vulnerabilities, than to discover and patch vulnerabilities with the help of AI. And of course had to mention slop, because no AI hater can make any argument without mentioning slop.
wrote about "Black October," the PHP vulnerability, and the AI-fueled dread and panic I'm seeing among almost all of the cybersecurity experts I've ever known. I think people w/ LLMs are brute forcing software the same way they brute forced social media w/ slop www.404media.co/php2shell-bl...

Why do people think it’s part of the mortgage? Because in the standard setup it goes through mortgage escrow rather than paid directly. Most people too financially illiterate to actually look at the detailed breakdown of what they’re paying.
“I’m old. I’ve paid my home off,” said Ray Warner, a 72-year-old Akron resident. “Why would I pay property tax?” Across the country, homeowners are asking the same question and revolting against property taxes at a scale not seen in a half century.
I wonder what were the anti-datacenter people opposing previously... www.cagreens.org/green-party-...

I can understand that people in California due local patriotism drink California wines, which are mid otherwise. Why would anyone elsewhere choose them over French, Argentinian, Italian, or Spanish is beyond me.
Without American wine on Canadian shelves, Canadians are also missing out on tens of millions of dollars in tax revenue they would obtain from selling our wine.

A living proof that taking out Yandex did not in fact stop Putin’s trolls.
After years of warnings that the war in Ukraine could spiral into a full-on Russia-Europe conflagration, the conflict has reached a point where this is a real possibliity. It’s a prospect that threatens not just European lives but the entire globe.

boy Trump fucked the American auto industry. first he yanks their EV subsidies, leading them to slash production and write off tens of billions in investment, then he jacks up the price of oil by 50%, leading to skyrocketing EV demand going almost entirely to China bc GM et al left the market

When you divide apples by oranges, you get bonkers results like this. This mixes crowd-sourced data from individual cities with BLS data for metropolitan areas. So let's say for Oakland it takes Oakland rents, but San Francisco-Oakland-Berkeley MSA salaries.
Sacramento is, by these metrics, the best value and some of the highest quality of life anywhere in the west. California incomes and sunshine with Portland’s prices and Denver’s access to nature is I guess a ranking-friendly combo?

hey ben. the guy in the picture here is an actual person, my friend’s dad, and a spiritual leader of Lakota people, Chief Arvol Looking Horse. not only does he support Indigenous People’s Day, he’s the founder of World Peace and Prayer Day. feels weird to use his image and not his name.

Take a note that this is phrased as “America gives Russia the opportunity”, not “T***p gives Russia the opportunity”. This is the general perception outside of the US. To the outside world the POTUS represents the US. Stop pretending that “everyone knows it’s not real America”, it’s just not true.
ZELENSKYY: At this very moment, when we are talking about peace, America gives Russia the opportunity to export diesel — that's millions, billions. It all goes toward the war against people, against Ukraine, against all of us.
