Can we please stop giving value on what people / companies / LLMS say?

If there's no documented research or reproducible PoC, you can just ignore it.

> Anthropic says it built a working exploit that gets root on a server. A total takeover.

Can we stop giving value to what is said? It's time to only accept PoC's or at least some documentation as proof.

The recent PHP vulnerability made this even more apparent. LLM's were panicking, but the server were fine...

Any TV, just don't connect it to the internet

Apparently this could only be solved after the challenge added a php file that shows the PID. Which is not public information.

echo 'PID: ' . getmypid();

Not really any news here. Sad WhatsApp took the notes down, there wasn't really a reason to. People assume bad faith though.

Probably why Google implemented their own decoder in Rust

I have zero clue what you are talking about and I use Jetbrains products every day. PHPStorm is still the default IDE for many developers.

Rebuilding cars between sessions is a story as old as racing.

Even in stock car races, where they run those little 1.2 liter cars with 50 on track, they switch engines or rebuild the car, between sessions.

They can completely destroy their car in a heat and have the car ready again by heat 2.

What's Pi? Oh an AI agent. Isn't MCP designed for agents? There's still some anti-MCP movement or something?

MCP is just REST with meta data folks. It's all just HTTP and JSON.

You can say naaa fuck it and open Youtube when your friends are over, as well as putting your kids to bed when they're there. It's fine!

Really don't understand why, when you use AI, don't code natively but use a transpiled TypeScript runtime (GeaStack)

It's not. I can place my iPhone next to my trackpad and the MacBook thinks I closed the lid.

If the solution was to remove an unused dependency, I think this CVE isn't silly at all.

If people say: AI said "X". It usually means you should've asked AI before going to the human.
