Not how companies operate. It's not their business what you do in your personal life. It's a pretty dangerous precedent to allow corporations to impose 'morality'.

When your personal life directly impacts businesses, that's another story.

Tell people it's CGI, they won't be enthusiastic about it. But tell them it's "practical effects" and they will absolutely love it. Even when the movie has even more CGI than average... they will still praise it, and will even praise the CGI scenes they failed to identify as computer generated.

This scaling approach is unsustainable, it is generating diminishing returns and ballooning costs. It is already blowing up.

And it's not just about installing, it's also about fixing issues. I had an intermittent DNS issue that I was not able to track down, and I didn't have enough time to dedicate myself to instrumenting my devices to chase it. I dropped a single line to an agent. It quickly wrote a test script, kept monitoring, when the problem manifested it tracked it down to a wrong IPV6 DNS config, crafted the pull request to fix it on my router (I have the homelab configured via gitops, local gitea).

I was also playing a windows game on linux and I had a weird mouse issue. Reading forums and bug trackers didn't do the trick and I threw the towel. I asked the agent. It grabbed the system (and game) logs, and figured out a fix. In a couple of minutes.

I would eventually find those issues, given enough time. But I don't have to anymore.

I don't think OP literally meant the agent is running as root though. "| bash" shouldn't do anything more than the user the agent is running at can do. The bigger threat is an instruction to "install in the box". Then the agent could reach out to the container and do just that.

I used to 'unintentionally nap' all the time since I was a teen.

Then I discovered I had sleep apnea. No more napping. And dementia has been linked to sleep apnea.

I wonder if this study is missing some quite big issues here.

I don't agree. All -important- dialogue yes. Background NPC chatter? Even when studios spend a lot of effort crafting multiple lines, pretty soon you have seen them all. They also don't change based on player actions.

When you just need a few parts to be made, it is sometimes very tempting to drop a chest, fill it up with parts, then go do something else, one of the 1000 tasks you have been neglecting.

Microsoft had an egregious cross-tenant vulnerability (really, how many cross-tenant vulnerabilities did other clouds have?).

Vulnerability was reported.

They fixed it - incorrectly. Reported again.

They fixed it this time... and broke the previous fix. So it's vulnerable again.

What a clown show.

That explains a lot.

The main issue was his PTSD.

It's pretty much impossible to have that. You'll always have the author's worldview shaping the fictional world.

But when you only have half a dozen-ish episodes per season, you can't afford filler.

But yes, those instances were a bit rare.
