“The researchers suspect that Glassworm—the name they assigned to the attack group—is using LLMs to generate these convincingly legitimate-appearing packages. “At the scale we’re now seeing, manual crafting of 151+ bespoke code changes across different codebases simply isn’t feasible,” they explained.

@aral I basically never heard the word "bespoke" up until some months ago in some rant by DHH. Since then I notice the word "bespoke" all the time. Well, mainly by Omarchy fanboys.

Is this word some fascist dogwhistle or is my sudden noticing of it everywhere just the psychological effect whose name I have forgotten?
