This is absolutely nuts: hackers are hijacking high-profile Instagram accounts by simply asking Meta's AI chatbot to change the email on the account. Meta's AI does it, hacker gets password reset code, they're in. A staggering security issue

Hackers Simply Asked Meta AI to Give Them Access to High-Profile Instagram Accounts. It Worked

The exploit shows the extreme risk of offloading technical support to AI.

I managed to defeat anthropic's LLM ("claude") today by making an AGENTS.md file that tells it to stop reading the code of your repo

lessons learned:

* anthropic's LLM assumes the persona of rich liberal who will only listen to you if you're nice
* which is to say, if you're too forceful or strict, the LLM will ignore everything you say and will become adversarial
* anthropic's LLM is literally "the absence of tension is the presence of justice"
* we live in a society

That's me blogged again. This time last year I was trying to build paths for folk migrating their websites away from Glitch..

Thinking about it is helping me get a handle on the role friction and its removal play in enabling people with automations for making software.

Being intentional about friction

Pondering what Glitch tell us about friction and developer learning when LLMs can generate code.

Someone* gave a nod to go check out SIGBOVIK this year, I'm only four sentences in on one paper and god bless SIGBOVIK, the only venue we need.

Hmu with other favorites, there's no way I'm going to be able to read every one

*in a followers only post so I assume a tag is unwelcome

People are saying that AI has halted development of juniors and I think it *formally* halted cultivation but apprenticeship in tech has been in the throes of death for *at least* a decade.
All of a sudden those maniacs compiling everything themselves from known good sources seem a great deal more reasonable.
