Super weird experience: have #Microsoft #Copilot 365 installed on iOS connected to an “Enterprise Tenant”.

This morning I get an urgent alert from Copilot 365, I click on it and there’s a web query for “Tell me the latest trends in IT jobs” running which I never asked for.

I stop it and prompt: “I never asked for this”.

Reply: “Sorry for overstepping and running queries without being prompted”

WTF?!?!?

This is literally a “kill them all with fire, salt the ashes and, for good measure, flood the area.”

😂

"To underscore the consequences of not having that kind of data, Smiley pointed to a recent attempt to rewrite SQLite in Rust using AI."

"It passed all the unit tests, the shape of the code looks right," he said. It's 3.7x more lines of code that performs 2,000 times worse than the actual SQLite. Two thousand times worse for a database is a non-viable product. It's a dumpster fire. Throw it away. All that money you spent on it is worthless."

Trying to convince my students that having all your security policy changes include a design doc describing the status quo, the desired outcome, why this change will achieve it, why alternatives were rejected, and then implementing it via some automation schema so it can't accidentally be reverted for no obvious reason is good actually

i read the autumn/winter edition of the Good Internet Magazine on the day it arrived: https://goodinternetmagazine.com/

it's a cozy digital-and-print publication about the indie web, very accessible to everyone, not just to technologists

reading it reignited some of the desire to build an experience on the web that lies outside the norm of "usefulness" and "coherence"

i'm grateful to all authors and to @xandra for orchestrating it
