IntginknInnquite fine with LLM powered vulnerability discovery.
I am not comfortable with LLM driven development, especially if done by beginner developers.
Or even non-developer.
Still there are successful projects using LLM by non devs.
Example: corridor key

interesting.. Looks very mathematical. But LLMs are known to struggle with that. So it's more in agent mode and the actual tasks are done by programs?

why an LLM brute force loop instead of a 1 to maxint loop. What improvements does the LLM bring?

2026-05-08 05:55:26 UTC

- reply

is that now going to be a regular occurrence (weekly) that we all have to do night shifts for patching vulns.
Is this caused by AI powered vuln discovery?

Good example "copyfail"
Which is also a good example on how NOT to do responsible disclosure.

I have to read up on that mathematical proof that AGI cannot be obtained with self referencing LLMs.

2026-04-29 18:21:32 UTC

- reply

mathemaitians recently proved that LLM cannot learn new things by itself.
So this seems like a nice idea but it is now proven to not work.
At least we are safe from appearence of an almighty skynet.

they should schedule a naming caroussel so countries get renamed all the time. Then you don't know where to go when calling for an invasion

that's the whole goal of the current administration!
Provoke a rebellion. Then call the army and the cancel all elections because of insurrection.
That's how simply you turn the democratic US into a fascist dictatorship.

did you run 3 CPU setups which had some decision making in case one of the CPUs had a different result?
The space shuttle had such a 3 computer system.

I am intersted in glue integrated in the cpu. Is that a new thing or did I miss some crucial part of computer design? Would love some links to learn about that.

mich wundert wenn der Kassenbon nicht raus kommt, dass man dann nochmal bezahlen kann. Der Kassenvorgang ist abgeschlossen. Also dürfte die Kasse das nicht erlauben. Ausser override vom Kassierer.
Der kannte wohl nicht den Unterschied von Kassenbon und Kartenbon nicht (welche solches SB Kassen normalerweise gar nicht ausgeben).

I run a bug bounty with the students so they report their hacks to me. I managed to improve security a lot since the last 6 months. And the school is 10 years old. Many obvious errors found and fixed.

Something based off torrent or similar technology.
Or a federated/distributed backup in case the main site goes down.

I am sure some crazy hackers will be delighted to make the thing do stuff not supported by the hardware design. Like people did 30 years ago.

bash is inherently safer than any other scripting language because it will never call system() and execute user supplied variables. If it does that's a level 10 security vulnerability. (remember shellshock?)
I wrote many web tools open tonthe Internet in bash. Typically small ones like a password reset form.
No, you don't need eval.

maybe @npub14zw…pf4e can build one for you. Forgot the name. Basicaly a hardware based automatic KVM.
Originally a device which seamlessly switches computers when the mouse gets to the border, thus extending to 2 screens but on 2 different computers.
As it's raspberry based it can be reprogrammed to do whatever you want.

I once walked away from an important meeting after 1 hour of discussions leading nowhere. I was the important technical person but discussions were all about politics, contracts and costs.
They found a solution 10 minutes after I left.

no. You cannot read out the fingeprint to make copies of. But you can read out recall data. So it cannot be the same container, else you would not be able to read the recall data.

yes, that's why there is now teams_for_linux community project. An electron wrapper for the web version.

oh? I especially installed teams_for_linux because screenshare and video did not work in firefox and teams was very slow in chrome. I will try firefox again...

2024-04-09 16:52:34 UTC

oh, I ran web-teams in Chrome browser. It was sluggish as hell. Worked fine in Firefox, but there you have no video/screen sharing.
Electron: sharing works and it's not hanging randomly.

2024-04-08 16:06:18 UTC

- reply

I am still happy that I can run teams on linux as an electron app instead of the browser version, which is a giant hassle.
The other solution is no teams. Well then I need to change jobs or install windows.
Two things I won't do.
