Well ok my mistake, it’s just that literally all the command line text editors I’ve tried, the mouse does nothing by default and people act like you’re not supposed to use it, it’s just not a core part of how the software is designed to be used

Does that actually work when they’re publicly saying the opposite, won’t judges and juries call bullshit?


I just reread the plot synopsis, still don’t get it, how is V the bad guy?


Haven’t other countries tried DNS level site blocking, and it’s very easy to get around? Does it even make any difference? The strategy of ISP copyright letters has already trained Americans to use VPNs for this, it seems like the only difference will be that I will have to turn my VPN on before searching for torrents instead of just before actually opening my torrent client
maybe more advanced scripts are needed


I think it would be pretty cool if this was used on leaked proprietary source codes
Makes sense, I overall agree, I’m mostly just unsure about the idea of a “snap”, “break” or gaining self awareness, as opposed to something more passive. It’s been a while since I saw the movie though and I didn’t read the book so I can’t make much of an argument about it.


Yeah I have no idea where if anywhere people share pirated mods, definitely would like to know, haven’t seen them on torrent sites. Beat Saber has something like this also with a different system (where somehow third party mod managers have ended up implementing this sort of check), and steam workshop as you mention. Anyway I do own Factorio (though not the expansion), it’s mostly just something that seems like a relevant factor.
Maybe I didn’t understand the scene, when I watched it I assumed he had planned to kill the guy all along and that was just stuff Bateman was saying to make him think everything was normal


Even where they aren’t, I bet this is something that could end up happening when using them as open-ended agents that might try making their own accounts. The article also mentions this:
Furthermore, with the recent surge in popularity of coding agents and vibe-coding tools, people are increasingly developing software without looking at the code. We’ve seen that these coding agents are prone to using LLM-generated passwords without the developer’s knowledge or choice. When users don’t review the agent actions or the resulting source code, this “vibe-password-generation” is easy to miss.
The worst part is it’s not even money, it’s control over the resources and infrastructure the rest of us actually need.


Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought it was inherent to the terminal that you can’t position the cursor and select text using the mouse, and also inherent that there are not right-click menus.
If you don’t want to use a mouse in your code editor that’s a valid preference, but these are very different styles of programs and exist in separate categories. Personally I was using Atom before I was using VSCodium, and I really like most design choices of the latter, it’s basically everything I always wanted an IDE to be like. Don’t want to stop using the mouse.


Doesn’t seem like much of a VSCode replacement though since it is terminal based


We’re already seeing open source improvements made from people sorting through and learning from the leaked code
I’d be interested to know about examples of this, was there something Claude Code had that competitors didn’t already?


One area where Factorio is tough to pirate is, they actually locked their mods behind a sort of DRM scheme where you have to confirm having it on Steam to download them. It’s a great game as just vanilla but I’m not sure how to get around that if you want to use mods.


nitrile and latex gloves traditionally worn by laboratory scientists of all stripes, can shed particles called “stearates” that mimic microplastics. These hydrocarbons, added by the glove manufacturers to prevent the gloves from sticking to the molds, can fool spectroscopy machines and are nearly impossible to distinguish from polyethylene under electron microscopes.

I think Reddit is using AI modbots that really don’t like external links that have superficial similarities to links used by scammers, I was also banned for something kind of similar.


Tried this briefly, can get the game itself to run but run into a .net runtime error trying to launch the editor on linux. It’s a neat concept and I hope it succeeds
Ok, but it’s not like everyone is documenting exactly which parts are generated, curated, or human written.
Say someone incorporates GPL code without attribution, and gets sued for doing so. They try to make the argument in court that the source material they used is not copyrighted, because of AI. Won’t they have to prove that the parts they used were actually AI output for this defense to work? It isn’t like people are going around ignoring the copyright on things in general if they look like they were probably generated with AI, that isn’t enough to be safe from prosecution, because you usually can’t know the exact breakdown. It seems like preventing this loophole from being used would be as simple as keeping it ambiguous and not allowing submissions that positively affirm being entirely AI generated.
