I got bitten too many times by Matrix to still have any will to use it again.

Lost messages, impossibility to backup or recover, search not working and weird unexplainable bugs...

To try to fix a cache issue I once tried to look at the source code, it was an undecipherable hot mess like if it was encrypted and the key was loss also ... :p

He was probably considered as a "victim" of having his crimes exposed...

The architect knows what it is doing. And the workers are professionals with supervisors to check that the work is done properly.

Asshole involved, not surprised...

Galen has achieved an amazing amount over the years, both in MS research and at MS. Do you have a real reason to believe he won't achieve this or just want to character assassinate him with no evidence

(We went to the same university, ive never worked with him and actually worked at a competitor for about twenty years, but know plenty of folks who have worked with him and am fairly familiar with his work and research)

TBF this does reek of professional corporate egoism circumventing "if it ain't broke don't fix it" practicalities. Personally I'm quite fearful of how many more things it'll break.

Last time I checked, he miserably failed the Azure Sphere after years developing with a massive team.

What amaze me is all these websites like Expedia or Airbnb that would open MCP api when they carefully prevented for years scraping and equivalent things.

Nowadays, a lot of things that people are impressed by agents doesn't even really need AI but just a way for us to get data and api access back to (web)app. Something we more commonly used to have like 15 years ago.

For example, when looking at possible destination for a trip, I would just need to be able to do the given request without spending one hour on the website.

This popup just tells you to switch to another OS, more respective of you as an user...

This guy looks like to have a good mindset, I hope that fellow HNers living there will vite for him to give us a little bit of hope in the current very sad world!

Anyone can send a bill but you can just throw it in the trash without even responding if there is not contract...

"Along similar lines, Seminole County Public Schools (SCPS) communications officer, Katherine Crnkovich, emphasized in an email to Ars to “please make sure it is noted that this student wasn’t simply carrying a clarinet. This individual was holding it as if it were a weapon.”

I don't know if this communication officer realize the ridicule of her statement.

> This individual was holding it as if it were a weapon

When asked to clarify the communications officer provided the following evidence:

"As you can see in this image the student is squinting a little bit, exactly what you would do if you were aiming."

"Also, you can see by his stance that he is trying to create stability with one foot a little forward."

"I wouldn't be surprised at all if this was actually a trial run and he is testing the AI for weaknesses."

so much of this seems to have nothing to do with what is being held, it looks like gait and posture analysis, and guess what you do with instruments? you assemble them hold them to your eye to look at the alignment of the sections, and you sight through the holecover to look for gaps in the pads.

i believe it might be possible to trigger an alert with empty hands, based on analysis, as well as telescopes, maybe guitars, science class projects such as sextants, trigonometry exercises for those rare birds that do practical math lessons.

really the student manual should specify which gestures, and postures are prohibited AI triggers, akin to pulling a fire alam.

is drama or theatre still a thing in high school? that seems like a major issue there.

at the risk of repeating myself, if school is that dangerous, why are we sending children there?

Like blaming a girl that she dressed in a wrong way and thus she was assaulted.

I mean these students now have the absolute funniest and most effective way to protest this bullshit. They could do more musical instruments, but I think bringing in comically fake depictions of outlandish weaponry would be legendary. A cereal box that just has the letters C4 written on it, an old timey cartoon bomb, a papier-mâché nuclear warhead.

Sadly this form of protest would quickly end with trigger happy cops shooting innocent kids…

Or just a Doritos bag apparently.

Sir, please drop that bag of Flamin Hot Cool Ranch chips and place your hands where I can see them

So I guess the Cardboard Tube Samurai was a prophesy?
