How I get to "not including AI tools in authored-by metadata is wrong" in three easy steps:
• AI is ethically wrong, and to a degree that completely overshadows practical concerns.
• OSS projects acting in the common best interest therefore have an ethical duty to reject AI-extruded contributions.
• Hiding the use of AI tooling in PR descriptions is lying about the ethical impact of those contributions and makes upholding codes of ethics more difficult.
„By Wednesday morning, Anthropic representatives had used a copyright takedown request to force the removal of more than 8,000 copies and adaptations of the raw Claude Code instructions—known as source code—that developers had shared on programming platform GitHub.“
Because if there’s one thing GenAI companies absolutely don’t take lightly, it’s copyright.

@alorenzi @lysander vabbé, allora era una friggitrice ad aria anche il mio forno ventilato grande, quando ci facevo le focaccette spalmate d'olio nella teglia oliata
ma non sempre nella friggitrice ad aria metti cose spalmate di grassi, ci vengono bene anche cose tipo le patate cotte intere con la buccia (su cui poi i grassi tipicamente si mettono sotto forma di burro crudo) o le mele (su cui i grassi non si mettono proprio, al massimo degli zuccheri extra)
May I say here that I abhor April Fools. I do not like practical jokes at all. I do not think they’re funny. This may stem from growing up around malevolent tricksters who would tell me to “stop being so dramatic” when they gave me a shot glass of jalapeno juice and tell me to drink it. (I was in 2nd grade…so, 6 or 7). They thought it hysterical, I started plotting how to successfully run away.
So please, miss me with April Fools.
In today's episode of "Can It Run Doom": DNS fucking TXT records.
Some absolute madlad (cough Adam Rice cough) compressed the entire shareware DOOM WAD, split it into around 1,964 chunks, shoved them into Cloudflare TXT records, and wrote a PowerShell script that reassembles and runs the whole goddamn game from DNS queries alone. Nothing touches disk. The DLLs are in DNS. THE FUCKING DLLS ARE IN DNS.
RFC 1035 was written in 1987. Those engineers are spinning in their graves fast enough to generate municipal power.
Bonus: this is a fully functional globally-distributed covert data exfil channel that your NGFW will never fucking see if you're not doing deep DNS inspection. Sleep well.

Also lmao @ every blue team that has never once looked at their DNS query volume. How's that DLP policy working out for you.
It was always DNS.
What's anthropic going to do, sue them? Insist in court that LLM recreating copyrighted code is a violation of copyright???
