I fully agree, this seems like a legal liability issue waiting to happen.

If anybody has suggestions for how to do this with LLMs (short of maintaining CLAUDE_wall_of_shame.md), please share.

Edit: for the record, yes I do run a linter, and generally try not to impose bikeshedding or soapboxes on my peers. It's just that there are certain patterns that I personally am not going to commit under my own username as the engineer of record.

Edit 2: I saw another comment recommending "Always confirm with me before doing $x" (and then always denying). Seems like it might work.

I wonder if AI / shadow IT will change that.

I'm curious, what exactly do you mean by "self-insured"?

(Is the idea to combine literal insurance underwriting for retirement planning with a monetary incentive system for ongoing work performance)?

That seems bad.

(P.S. you can also add a new thread)

Also: If pain becomes a contest, we're all losers.

Also: Thank you for complaining. There is much to complain about. There's so much to complain about that we can sit in a circle and take turns complaining and everybody will probably learn something.

And the salient difference is that CCTV is simply defense-in-depth, not a primary means for authentication.

(A) opening chatgpt.com in qubes (but staying logged out, i.e. never creating a chatgpt account)

-or-

(B) creating a freemium chatgpt account

?

(Obviously, the "best" answer would be something like running a local LLM from an airgapped machine in a concrete bunker :) But that's not what I'm after).

I've always found it a bit odd that we DO define "i" to help us express complex numbers, with the convenient assumption that "i = sqrt(-1)"... but we DON'T have any such symbols to map between more than 2 dimensions.

I felt a bit better when I found out about - (nth) roots of unity (to explore other "i"-like definitions, including things like roots of unity modulo n, and hidden abelian subgroup problems which feel a bit to me like dealing with orthogonal dimensions) - tensors (e.g. in physics, when we need a better way to discuss more than 2 dimensions, and often establish syntactic sugar for (x,y,z,t))

IDK if that helps at all (or worse, simply betrays some misunderstanding of mine. If so, please complain- I'd appreciate the correction!)

The Mayo Clinic does a lot of groundbreaking research, new techniques, ultra-rare diseases... stuff that is super awesome, but nonetheless relatively unlikely to have established billing norms.

I will also remind you that in most U.S. states, the largest employer in the state is either a university or Walmart. In Minnesota, it's Mayo.

There are nearly-century-old journalistic guidelines and ethical codes about what you do and do not put into widespread news media.

Posting explicit details about methods used in a celebrity suicide encourages copycats.

Posting explicit details about a shooter's extremist philosophical beliefs brings those beliefs closer to the mainstream AND encourages copycats.

There was a certain recent college debate that I was very surprised to see proliferate across social media, because of the fact that We Do Not Publish Snuff Films.

I actually assumed it was a deepfake, doubted AP News Wire and Reuters, and finally bought it when I saw a tiktok from the TMZ cutting room floor. The fellow in charge didn't believe it either... until he did, and then it was an all-hands-on-deck moment steadied by someone clearly experiencing a huge surge of adrenaline but keeping their cool while operating in their element.
