<p>Correlation != Causation<p>I invite you to scientifically work on this important topic. Catch up on previous work by others and then use a proper statistical methodology to do proper research and validate your hypothesis.<p>Other possible factors that could explain it apart from your theory on SSRIs: more exhaustive news reporting, less wealthy parents and thereby more kids brought up in poverty conditions, more parents with lead poisoning, more kids exposed to plastics, more weapons per household, more exposure to violence and/or mobbing, violence in video games, less third places that kids have for socializing, more social media, more mobbing at school, more unrealistic beauty standards and many others. Some of them might've been researched already and some might not.<p>Even though you're not trying to do a degree you can always do proper science and maybe also prove a novel explanation.</p>

<p>It's just sad that these kind of bugs still slip through. So many people lack the ability to come up with the most straightforward edge cases for their validation code.<p>To me it feels like people who build LEGO their whole lives but never once stray away from the step-by-step manual and never have built something "outside the box".</p>

<p>Is this a story from the Epstein universe? Because the town of York during that time had some interesting characters like Donald and Kashoggi. Also "Lago Mar" in Florida sounds familiar.<p>Edit: At the end the main protagonist even mentions having Iran Contra evidence and speaks to the commission, but two senators present evidence that devalues his testimony. Interesting.</p>

<p>Looks good, nice features. But somehow the spark does not ignite on my side because it feels too artificial. I don't know if the metrics are faked, if the convenience functions actually work, if there is any proper hardening.<p>I can accept if stuff is vibe coded and has autogenerated README. But even the announcement blogpost is AI-generated, and I personally have zero data points to see if your understanding of software quality is the same as mine.<p>It's a weird world, if this would've been announced without any AI disclaimers some years earlier I would've eaten it up without a doubt. But right now if I see a fancy README with several good-looking command line parameters I immediately wonder if the README is hallucinated and the command line parameters actually exist.</p>

<p>Even before that everybody was getting drowned in shitty reports from automated tools.<p>The goal of AI-generated code should not be that one needs a AI-based security review tool on top of it, but that the AI-generated code in itself is reasonably secure.</p>

<p>It's weird because why can't they train the AI to simply output secure code?<p>The basic security flaws with regards to input validation and overflows should never ever be output by an AI. For "security flaws due to bad design" I'll cut them slack until AGI is achieved.</p>

<p>Love your confidence. Must be just a coincidence then, huh?<p>Do you believe someone working for US intelligence who arranges a vanity social security number for Ghislaine and whose grandparent was head of social security administration has no means to create multiple identities?<p><pre><code>    Prior to joining Oracle, Jeff served as Chief Financial Officer of several public and private companies, including DoubleClick (sold to Google), King World Productions (sold to CBS) and Nielsen’s Media Measurement and Information Group. Earlier in his career, he was an investment banker at The First Boston Corporation.
</code></pre>
Your "Jeff Epstein" should fix his CV, because King family was previous owners of Zorro ranch. And Nielsen family was previous owners of the Epstein island. Is your Jeff maybe the real Jeff who made a killing in finance and the publicly known "bad" Jeff was just using his name, just as he did with Marius Fortelni?<p>And once the "bad" Jeff goes to Florida jail in 2009 the "clean" Jeff leaves Florida with Oracle?</p>
