@drahardja @SteveBellovin What is this *not* good for?

Doing my weekly update of TeXLive, I spotted this as a new feature. Just what I want—SQL injection in document source…

@muneef This PNG could've been a HTML table...

Writing things down isn't just good science; it's the ultimate kink. 😝

@asicc I have no clue how this should/could be resolved unfortunately.

People getting more familiar with the infrastructure around them would probably help, but technology goes in a direction that hides these details, hence its popularity.

@asicc My point is exactly that the contents of an URL doesn't seem to matter _at all_ because many people have no idea what trustworthy domains are (or how they would like like as part of an URL).

In other words you don't have to register n<very weird e-like character>tflix[.]com for your scam because people will just trust PayForYourTV[.]so.

@tara @bitzero TIL about elinks, it looks awesome!

The current chaos in WordPress caused by Matt seems like a good time to remind folks that the Mastodon “community” websites and trademarks are 100% owned by one man, despite pleas from current and former project members to make Mastodon a foundation with a board.

sometimes the answer is not "have you tried turning it off and on again" but "have you tried using the physical power switch while sacrificing a goat"

Now that I look at it, Empire of Ghidra has strong Mordor vibes...

I’m glad we wrote that paper. However LLMs “still lack basic reasoning skills” makes me cringe.

Information theory tells me that because an LLM is a finite set that is not able to grow itself, once it is trained has a finite capability. And that capability is driven by statistics and numbers.

intuitively (to me at least) if you present an LLM with a prompt that’s weird enough it will “hallucinate” answers because it has no critical thinking, it’s just a big probability machine that tries to find the most likely answer to your question. As a result, present an LLM with a chess problem brain teaser unique setup, chances is the LLM will make up rules because what it trained against isn’t chess rules but “in general chess problems end with a checkmate” and it will interpolate the movements from where you are to a checkmate.

@fortyseven @realhackhistory Exactly, this is how Art looks like.
