𝗔𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴: 𝙜𝙘𝙘-𝙖𝙧𝙨𝙘𝙝𝙡𝙤𝙘𝙝 – 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱’𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗣𝗲𝗱𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗖 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗶𝗹𝗲𝗿

Tired of your C code just working? Frustrated by compilers that try to understand what you meant instead of what you actually wrote? We at ChaosCompilers™ are proud to announce 𝙜𝙘𝙘-𝙖𝙧𝙨𝙘𝙝𝙡𝙤𝙘𝙝. 🎉

𝙜𝙘𝙘-𝙖𝙧𝙨𝙘𝙝𝙡𝙤𝙘𝙝 takes the C99 standard very seriously — in the most unexpected and impractical ways possible through malicious interpretation of undefined behavior.

Stay tuned for the horrifying details! 🧑‍💻

Who did it better?
Here's how the "Ship of Theseus" page looked in July 2003 when it was first created! Since then, the article has been edited 1792 times. 0% of its original phrases remain.
real AI safety is, like, "oh no, we're using this model for important things and we're uncritically accepting the results but it's saying we shouldn't provide medical treatment to black people." fake AI safety is, "what if the AI is so superintelligent that it somehow takes control over everything and murders everybody, not because we gave it control over nuclear weapons or something, but because it's just really smart and somehow found a way to get control of them? i am very smart."

Fascinating both for what it says about dev & what it says about statistics:

A gamedev realized Linux users were just 5.8% of their sales, but represented 38% of bug reports.

Then they looked at those numbers closer, and realized. Linux users were not experiencing more bugs. Almost none of the Linux-user bugs were Linux-related. Linux users were simply *more likely to file bugs*.

Their conclusion: A linux port pays for itself bc it nerdsnipes ppl into giving u free QA

Working Countrysides That Work For Everyone | Sarah Taber for Agriculture Commissioner

Dr. Taber’s roots in agriculture run deep. Born to a military family, she helped operate her family’s small holdings and took field, garment shop, and factory jobs to pay for school. At a young age, Sarah learned that romanticizing farms doesn’t put food on the table. Agriculture has to be a viable livelihood or it’s just not worth doing.

This new data poisoning tool lets artists fight back against generative AI

The tool, called Nightshade, messes up training data in ways that could cause serious damage to image-generating AI models.

Describe the symptom, not the conclusion:
"The firewall is blocking my app"
No, your application has triggered a pop up box with a pre-written string saying it is unable to communicate with a specified server. We do not know anything else about why that happened or what is potentially wrong in the chain of dependencies for that error to appear. The error could be a completely incorrect catch-all. You do not know anything until you start investigating.
