- currently I do robotics, and I have a lot of thoughts about how I'd never let one of these things inside my house I like startups. I like remote. I'd love to work with atproto.

- Reposted by cyber professionalCrazy story: A bank analyst published a report showing Kalshi users lose money even faster than sports gamblers, so Kalshi first tried to pressure the data provider to change their data and then accused them and the analyst of conspiring to extort them when that doesn’t work.

- the number of organizations this could apply to.....
- just my *house* has as many distinct signal groups as there are people living here. Not because of drama, but because they are for distinct purposes! Join and leave freely, use mute notifs aggressively, deleting messages as appropriate to what you discuss and who's there, etc
- people installing this at work is an inevitable consequence of checkbox based security and compliance over values and mindset
- 1Password not mincing words here: "If you are experimenting with OpenClaw, do not do it on a company device. Full stop." "If you have already run OpenClaw on a work device, treat it as a potential incident and engage your security team immediately." 1password.com/blog/from-ma...

- Reposted by cyber professionalA fundamental problem with this country is that you have less responsibility, transparency, and duty as you gain more power when it should be the opposite. The Supreme Court gets to be very secretive for no good reason. Cops get a monopoly on violence and have near total immunity when they use it.
