He does say LLMs made things worse, even if he's not opposed to it.

Although I love the new era of LLM assisted reverse engineering, it really breaks my heart how much it negatively affect veterans in their area of passion.

They relaxed rules a lot over time.

Start of the year: I asked Claude to explain me the leaked Pokemon Emerald codebase,he refused no matter what I tried.

Weird design choice by Nintendo. Imo, the whole timeline thing is a very clear afterthought for legend of zelda, most games have little to no relation to each other.

I don't think the article is reassuring it is not astroturfed? He studied only a small case, for a brand on the smaller side, and found significant amount of bots.

If you see a single sheep on an island, it is safe to assume there is more than one sheep living on the island.

Good outcome, but forced arbitration should still be illegal.

I agree, but I don't have to take it at face value either. It is just one data point after all. Usually I am interviewing in many places.

Even an emotional feedback could be potentially useful for self-improvement. Asking doesn't hurt.

The title undersells it.

The TV has multiple mics that can't be disabled, they constantly record everything and upload transcripts in plain text.

It gathers data and metadata of all devices on the network, including IP addresses. And even analyzes network data to understand which applications are being run.
