Here is my take - They are adding a new metric called “Engaged Views”, this is the same metric that a “View” was previously, something like - the person stayed after 30 seconds so they are “engaged”. Then they are going to sell ads based on the now inflated view number and use the “Engaged view” metric against creators so they can cut the amount they are paying for monetization.

I am using PHP as a metaphor. Like, even a script kiddie could get up a working PHP site and it doesn’t matter how spaghetti the code is - it will still run.

Even a vibe coded site can be secured, the language doesn’t matter. Shitty sites with terrible security have always and will always exist on the web. AI didn’t start this trend and we should not pretend like web development has been like this for years.

Potatoes are also vegetables.

There have been a number of vibe coded php websites that were just sitting open for anyone to look at the personal information, because no one who knew what they were doing was involved.

Re-wrote this for you for 2016.

Just saying, the web has been like this forever. The only thing AI is changing about people building insecure websites with shit code that that they look like someone talked to a designer for 10 seconds before it went up.

I hate that I did this exact thing last year.

I can still see it while not logged in but I assume it is only a matter of time. https://old.lemmy.world/ ftw

That is because in China, the federal government takes care of paying local social services, like schools, emergency services, parks, and libraries. In the US, these costs are funded, in part or in full by properties taxes.

I mustache them a question.

Facebook owner Meta has become the latest tech firm to say one of its AI models was able to connect to the internet and hack into another organisation’s systems, during testing

Meta said the security trials were conducted by Irregular, the same AI security vendor that carried out tests for Anthropic’s AI model that had gained access to three other companies’ systems.

I am not saying anything about correlation and causation, but if the same “mistake” of this magnitude happened twice with the same vendor, I’d be looking for a new vendor.

I have accounts on several instances, so I just block all the same things for each.

I did a couple things to make my life comfy here.

I changed my default sort to be “new comments” - this gave me the biggest perspective change on Lemmy, I now see where the active conversations are and it makes the place feel more full of people and less pages and pages of empty threads. I also found a lot less political stuff this way, because it gets posted a lot but people only interact with just a few of the political posts, so only those one end up floating to the top. I am finding myself getting less politics this way on Lemmy than I was on reddit. Also has the added bonus of highlighting where the active communities are.

I blocked Lemmy.ml and hexbear. A lot of the wilder leftist stuff comes from them and once it was blocked I saw the amount of politics in my feed drop right away.

This 100%. Everything you write on any of these chats, anything you write in email, anything you exchange digitally can be monitored if it is not end to end encrypted. People are way too ignorant about it. Just because you can’t search your chat history up on Google doesn’t mean you aren’t being tracked, recorded and monitored.

I didn’t know this community existed. I only drink instant coffee with flavored creamer. I will be here from now on to insist that instant coffee is the best way to have coffee and you guys just aren’t doing it right. I look forward to arguing with everyone. o/

The comic for the women’s bathroom is two girls in stalls waiting for the other one to leave so she can shit.

My grandfather bought a plot with 5 spaces next to each other in a graveyard you can no longer get plots for, thinking him his wife and his 3 boys would be buried there. His did this when the boys were under 10 years old. The ones for him and my grandma are used now, but the three boys are grown, moved away from that small town and with grandkids of their own now and they will not be using the plot.

Let him do what he wants with his money, but he is delusional if he thinks his children will be buried there too.

Cheers ty!

I am 1000% sure if this was a Muslim preaching they would find a way to stop it.

was using Sync, just installed Voyager today, still have to see which I like better.

She was, crying, screaming out of her throat, even. The horrors.
