My money is that this is manufactured by some PR team.
Possibly the Ad's text was purposely inflammatory (something like "overthrow the patriarchy" or something) so that they can say it was banned.

Basically every week I take the top songs for every country and filter out artists from out of the country.
I've found some songs I really like. Thought it'll be nice to share. There's also spotify playlists there.
I think this is the most obviously AI designed website I have ever seen.
From the nonsensical logo, the bland generic design language, overlapping support chats to mix and match of different landing page patterns. Misaligned avatar circles.
Additional load reveals limits and breaklines that were never known before - your temporary integer IDs are suddenly too small, you reach the maximum file descriptors in a Linux distro, your hash function suddenly has repeating conflicts, your DB index is suddenly oversaturated.
Having massive exponential growth of your traffic would probably require constant refactoring to meet the ever changing system limits.
Don't skimp on maintenance, make sure you have planes that can do divert in time.
If there was engine troubles in the middle of the ocean would it still be okay?
And if production is down even if there is just one user, it is all hands on deck.
You should have a method to deploy hotfixes to code that bypasses your development pipeline though, in case the development pipeline breaks while you need to fix production- because you must be able to fix PRODUCTION even if your dev pipeline is broken ( because again your dev pipeline, while important, is not production)
And you can host for a static site for free in a million places. CDNs free tiers are enough for individuals.
I don't get the preoccupation with hosting your own server, what matters is that you own your own identifier (in this case a domain name) whatever it points is vastly less important.
But the example with calculator is a bit misleading I think, you'll have to have a malicious exe already in the system and downloaded, and if cursor tried to run my understanding is that ACL should immediately kick in and you'll be asked for permission to run a new, unsigned app for the first time.
You'll have to have ACL disabled completely for this to be exploitable.
But further down it says that the cost was double and factories couldn't get buyers.
These are very different failure modes, and speak to very different solutions.
That is exactly what I would want from a junior developer - make sure the bug exists, find a way to fix it, verify the bug is fixed.
The problem, as was correctly identified in the blog post - is that instead of stopping and asking for elevated permission it relentlessly tries to find a hack on it's own. (An equivalent situation for a human developer would be needing some access to a third-party sandbox, and instead of asking a senior for credentials, tries to setup his own sandbox from scratch)
Since everyone should already know by now that you can't strap on an AI on an existing system without a lot of guardrails this feels like a very high level of incompetence.
No one should be putting AI on top of any production system without having a default deny policy on actions and slowly adding new capabilities with proper guardrails.
Even if you use AWS and the like, if you aren't building your app with redundancy across multiple AZs, then you'll have some downtime occasionally.
And even if you do build redundancy with multiple AZ, some services might fail anyway as AWS is not entirely isolated. So you might have downtimes.
So just accept downtimes and use the best tool for you (unless they are really bad, like GitHub level bad). If you cannot accept any downtime, you'll have to spend millions of dollars and months of work to have the confidence to expect no downtime. Something like Netflix's chaos monkey and infrastructure would be enough.
So what, we take every function and every vulnerability type and just run the agents millions of times?
I would expect Mythos to be able to find vulnerabilities without pointing it out for him, otherwise it's no better from other agents. It's just has a better harness.
The title is pretty enticing, even if the content is slop trash.
We mostly played games on it. It's really not fun playing games in the living room while everyone is around you doing other stuff.
It's like being the only one watching TV on the sofa while others are reading or working.
As long as they revert the charge when notified of scenarios like this , and they have historically done so for many cases, it's fine. It's an acceptable workaround for a hard problem and the cost of doing business ( just like Credit Cards accept a certain amount of loss to fraud as part of business)
Which from what I gather isn't very true - being smart can often lead to over confidence and making mistakes, and also a lot of crime is not premeditated.
The user discovery happens because the act he performs provides the exact intent you need to give him the shortcut.
Also for clarity this is only relevant for content based sites and not apps. It is vanishingly rare for users to scroll up when reading content unless they want to reach the top
First time I'm seeing a "no AI" used to differentiate a work for hire.
Can't say this wasn't obviously coming. Boutique hand-coded consultancies/software-houses are probably going to spring up a lot.
It is the first thing I suggest to anyone when I see someone didn't implement it.
I've never heard a complaint about it until now.
This would be the first time taxes are paid in a different currency in Israel history.
Pretty wild that it's such a large acquisition it can affect a nation's monetary policy.
I've never heard of something like that. Usually the requirement for being director level manager of engineers is to at least have managed people as an EM for several years before.
Product manager titles can have completely disjoint scopes of work between organizations - in one org they might be what was once systems designer role - getting requirements and writing specs, in another they might basically be doing UI or UX (even creating pages in figma), in others they are basically project managers.
It is not very useful in giving you confidence your changes would not cause unexpected side effects, which is usually the main problem working with legacy code.
If you want confidence when working with legacy code, your best bet is to do a strangler fig pattern - find a boundaries for the module you want to work on, rewrite the module (or clone and make your changes), run both at the same time in shadow mode, monitor and verify your new module is working the same as the old one, then switch and eventually delete the old module.
