Been happily using both for a long time. GIMP for 20 yr and LibreOffice for 8 yr. Granted my use cases are not professional.

That's two things over a long history. I wonder how many other initiatives he spear headed that never went anywhere.

Plenty. But also I'm sure there were a lot of decisions he made earlier in the company's history that led to them being in the position to start the CUDA project. I'm less familiar with those. They were consequential at the time but now they only matter inasmuch as they allowed the company to survive until AI took off.

Presumably those people report to the CEO.

I think /u/jazzyjackson was referring to the US Government, who, there are grounds for thinking, did know something about all of this and immediately swung into action .... or not, as the case may be.

Really I figured nvidia has a legal team that evaluates how exposed they are to risk of running afoul of the US government. I ask because, ok the CEO was complicit, but should the company wash their hands of it and pretend they had no way of knowing? That it was only the CEO that was responsible?

But I ask out of ignorance, I’ve never been inside a Big Corp.

Or they could just be lying. I honestly expect it at this point.

Have to make it regulation and law, with penalties for lying. Regime change has made this more likely, call your Congressional representative. Loop in Louis Rossmann and fulu.org if necessary.

It is fundamentally a citizen data security and data privacy issue, which only regulation and the law can solve for (i argue, based on all available evidence and information). But asking nicely or trusting corporations and management? lol, rofl even.

Not just penalties, penalties with teeth, and an actual enforcement plan or clear liability tied to their ability to operate in a given market.

It is illegal for a publicly traded company to lie about things that their shareholders might care about.

That's because our laws are written to protect shareholders but not you

Regime change has arrived, and it is time to write better laws.

Meet the new regime, same as the old regime. Watch, they won't change anything.

Nihilism is free, you are welcome to it. They haven't even been seated yet (takes place on January 3rd, 2027), we should give it a chance, I think. The nihilism remains available if we are disappointed by giving new folks a chance. Hope is not a strategy, but we must keep some, as a treat, imho.

Right now there are essentially zero penalties for lying about this stuff. So if lying makes them money, they are going to lie.

At least we know what their (most anyway) answers are and security researcher can start verifying where they are lying. You also have to look very hard at the language used to answer many of these questions as words can often be misleading...

That's one way to read it.

My take is that the addition of CoPilot to MS Paint is probably how this CVE got introduced.

The CVE was introduced over a year before that.

this is just one case.

But it is the case you were leaving the comment on, which is why anyone reading it will assume you meant to apply it to this case.

You say that as if there aren't more just over there.

I was saying this is just one case where we can say the reason about copilot, there are dozens of reported vulnerabilities, bugs in kernel, rust. and many more elite products which were authored by so called elite developers.

You willingly let "perfect" be the enemy of "good" in this case. It's absolutely possible to build software runtimes that obviate this type of nonsense. It's not grandstanding by elite developers, most of these choices are common-sense mitigations.

--Another vulnerability in ssh accounts that should never take a password at all (root, your key-only deploy user, ldap users, the default user on alpine's aws and azure images) take any password longer than 256 characters. I guess these also belongs to your common sense mitigation category but this has been there since 2016. -- struct's lifetime requirements can be bypassed via covariant field assignment, 11 year old rust compiler bug. how about this?

Reread both of our comments. You are complaining about an LDAP bug and a Rustc issue, the sky is not falling Mr. Chicken Little.

Exactly. So the original quote should be updated to read:

> LLMs are now unfolding technical debt, poorly written code, and security vulnerabilities accumulated in software that they have created themselves.

i dont think kernel bugs , ssh bug, 12 year old rust compiler bug all was written by LLMs.

MicroSD? Headphone jack? With that price tag you better be pulling out all the stops.

I'd rather a setting to go back to the old right-click menu by default. It's possible to do with a registry edit, but not from a user-friendly setting.

UK typically uses air-to-water heat pumps with convection radiators. The passive radiators are useless for cooling, and condensation on pipes in walls can be a problem.

Look, I know that actuuuualy and technically it's the same type of technology working on the same principle. The thing I have ( Daalderop 5G WPU) mainly works as floor heating (and great at that), but it's the size of a fridge and has it's own utility closet and a pipe underground for whatever thermal medium it uses and it's own separate meter (for reasons of regulatory kind). And it's a district wide deployment where I don't even own the thing.

Most importantly it's not the same in the way of me not feeling the chill. It's stupid, as I know the house is cooler than the outsides, but the actual split system delivers the cold air right to where I feel it and this thing just makes the ambient temperature down to 25c without me even noticing.

I don't want to know what it costs to install (I got it with the house), but split system costed lol nothing in eastern european dollars and took some guys less than half a day and zero permits to install too. For better or worse the heat pump doesn't live in the same locale I had that.

A water/water heat pump is absolutely not the same thing the other commenters are talking about. They're mostly talking about an air/air heat pump, where it's literally all the same parts but has a reversing valve so it can either be hot/cold or cold/hot among the coils with fans blowing through them.

This is more like what they're talking about, but they do come in a lot of shapes and sizes and can be more or less integrated into central systems.

It's almost like there is more than one thing called heatpump

I agree. It does make me think these tools need an irrevocable signature on the files, if that’s even possible. You can ask someone you’re commissioning if they use AI, and they can just lie.

Now should have Jagex reviewed it? Of course. However, there’s just this mistrust in art now. I’ve commissioned two things from artists. I asked both, as for my work I want to fund actual artists. However as these tools get better, I’m concerned that trust won’t be good enough.

Fake edit: “Well if it’s so good you can’t tell the difference then why’s it matter” completely misses the point so let’s not bother with that.
