So I guess everyone uses IDE to code now. I consider anybody not using vim to be a complete moron. Auto complete and syntax highlighting are for the weak minded. /s
You joke but when I first picked up C, I did find it quite helpful to write it in a plain text editor and write my own Makefiles to understand what project setup the IDEs would abstract away - our uni also had pen-and-paper exams where relying on autocomplete would have been difficult :)
(Likewise I can see "you should have read through your generated code and understood the key points yourself" becoming the rule of thumb for keeping maintainers accountable in a project, keeping the pace of changes manageable, and keeping the codebase from becoming a rat's nest _only_ agents can work with)
Even if we're in the same boat, I'm now actually cheering for AI replace my job, purely so people like you will be out on the streets with me and my "I told you so".
The real killer is the oath crate. Basically every rust project using OAuth is vulnerable. That's 398 projects on crates.io plus who knows how many binaries (a lot of non-library projects don't bother publishing to crates.io).
Another scary one is "a practical HTTP client that is fun" https://lib.rs/crates/isahc used in 317 crates including sequoia. In case you wanted somebody to steal your private keys.
Apparently it doesn't contain a binding to the C library, but it does contain some compatibility and shares design decisions with it. In other words, it's not a clean-room implementation from the spec, but rather it's a port. Since this RCE is triggered by a OOB access, it's unlikely to have made it into the crate, but it's good to keep these things in mind.
The pipeline will both increase the price Canada gets for its oil by reducing the share the railways get from the price, and (very slightly) decrease the world price because of increased supply.
Splitting the earnings differently between Canada and Canadian railway companies is a zero–sum game. It just changes which company makes what percentage of the profit. The real win for Canada will be additional production. The Prime Minister of Canada stated that the new pipeline would allow them to “export an additional 1 million barrels a day to growing markets in Asia.” That’s a net benefit for everyone. It’s additional profits for Canadian society and increased supply on the world market.
Carney has quite a unique opportunity for massive public spending that would have never been popular in any other case. The US always kept Canada well enough that the economy was "good enough" with declining infrastructure and underinvestment (capital fleeing to better return in the states).
Now that he can claim to have no choice and people are really mad, then he can even force retirement funds to invest massively here through those "nationnaly important projects". If successful that would seriously boost our stagnant productivity and economy.
Yes it's a reflection of the WWE, a great excuse to trample indiginous lands yet again. The political class should be required to wear leotards only, this way you can know their true nature.
Agreed we should ban the term rogue for agents. This implies a moral compass that is not there. They were directed to find data without guardrails or limits, it is not rogue it is intended.
This was discussed a lot on the news here. Couple of authors feed their pre AI books to pangram and also got false positive. Maybe it is AI, maybe not. But using AI to accuse someone else of using AI is ironic.
Can you post some links? I know some authors said that, but had used a different tool than Pangram, and I don't expect non-technical people to understand the difference. Pangram is reputedly the best of them and personally I couldn't get a single false positive on my own work (both French and English).
