How's that AI coding going for you? Ah... I see.
Wired: McDonald’s AI Hiring Bot Exposed Millions of Applicants' Data to Hackers Using the Password ‘123456’
"... Carroll and Curry, hackers with a long track record of independent security testing, discovered that simple web-based vulnerabilities—including guessing one laughably weak password—allowed them to access a Paradox.ai account and query the company's databases that held every McHire user's chats with Olivia. The data appears to include as many as 64 million records, including applicants' names, email addresses, and phone numbers...."

Mastodon 4.4 is out now,
and it brings changes for profiles and lists and also lays the groundwork for quote posts.
With #profiles, you can feature specific hashtags so that people can see all the posts you’ve tagged with those hashtags.
Mastodon is also making a change to how #pinned posts work: you can still pin up to five posts onto your profile, but they’ll now show up as a single carousel -- so you don’t have to scroll down as far to see new posts.
When you’re looking at a profile, Mastodon can now tell you how many people you follow also follow that person.
For lists, Mastodon says that Creating and managing #lists has been significantly streamlined -- it’s easier than ever to add and remove accounts from your lists both directly from profiles and from your own follows and followers listings.
And with #quote posts, which Mastodon already said were in the works,
the platform is doing what it calls “part one” of implementation.
“Since Mastodon runs on over 8,000 independent servers that together form the platform you know,
releasing features like this requires a two-pronged approach:
first we release code that supports processing and displaying this new format,
and then release code that allows our users to actively use the feature,” Mastodon says.
With 4.4, “you will be able to see quotes from compatible Fediverse platforms (including future Mastodon releases),”
but you won’t actually be able to quote posts until Mastodon’s 4.5 release.

The image depicts a futuristic landscape with a large, glowing yellow sun partially visible on the horizon, casting a warm light across the scene. The sky is a gradient of dark green to blue, dotted with stars, suggesting a night sky. The foreground features a vast, flat expanse with a grid-like pattern, possibly a cityscape or industrial area, with bright blue lines running parallel, resembling train tracks or pathways. On either side of this expanse, there are rocky formations with jagged edges, and structures that appear to be part of a futuristic city or industrial complex. The overall color palette includes dark greens, blues, and yellows, creating a contrast between the natural and artificial elements. The scene is devoid of any visible life forms or vehicles, emphasizing the vastness and isolation of the environment.

Aggiornamento Ben Askren: è vigile. “Sono morto quattro volte, ma ce l’ho fatta”
Ben Askren ha condiviso un aggiornamento toccante sulle sue condizioni di salute dopo mesi di silenzio, raccontando la drammatica esperienza vissuta tra maggio e luglio. In un video pubblicato sui suoi canali social (al momento della pubblicazione FB è ancora fermo al post di marzo e IG è non raggiungibile – instagram.com/benaskren/ ) , l’ex lottatore UFC ha spiegato di aver subito un doppio trapianto di polmoni e il coma durato un mese.
“Non vi aggiorno da un po’ e penso che ve lo meritiate,” ha detto Askren nel video. “Ho appena letto il diario di mia moglie perché non ricordo nulla dal 28 maggio al 2 luglio. Nessun ricordo. Nessuna idea di cosa sia successo. È come un film, una cosa assurda.”
Askren ha poi rivelato un dettaglio scioccante: “Sono morto quattro volte, il mio cuore si è fermato per circa 20 secondi. Non è l’ideale, lo sapete bene. Ma ho ricevuto un doppio trapianto di polmoni e sono riuscito a superarlo. Sto recuperando forza, sto imparando di nuovo a usare tutto. Ieri mi sono pesato: 147 libbre (66,6 kg). Non ero così leggero da quando avevo 15 anni. Ho perso 50 libbre (oltre 22 kg) in 45 giorni. È stata una battaglia. Ovviamente non ricordo quasi nulla.”
Dal video si vede che è messo ancora molto male
Ricordo che L’assicurazione non ha coperto l’operazione e che i soldi e che ha avuto i due milioni necessari grazie alle donazioni. Jake Paul (che con Askren ci ha combattuto sul ring) non più tardi di una settimana fa ha detto che era disgustoso che Dana White non avessa dato una mano e ha promesso di farlo lui…
Durante l’aggiornamento, Askren si è commosso parlando del supporto ricevuto: “La cosa che mi ha colpito di più è stato tutto l’amore che ho sentito. È stato come se avessi potuto assistere al mio stesso funerale. Ricordo ancora, 30 anni fa, quando Dave Schultz morì: tutti raccontavano quanto lo avevano amato. Ma lui non ha mai potuto ascoltarlo. Io sì.”
“L’affetto della comunità della lotta è stato incredibile. È stato meraviglioso. Ora sono più motivato che mai a restituire qualcosa, a fare la mia parte. Vi voglio bene, vi ringrazio. È stato difficile, non solo per me, ma per tutta la mia famiglia e la mia comunità. Spero che apprezziate questo aggiornamento. Magari, un giorno, io e Amy potremo raccontare tutto nei dettagli.”
Ben Askren, ex campione Bellator e ONE Championship, ha chiuso la sua carriera da professionista con un record di 19 vittorie, 2 sconfitte e un No Contest. Il suo ultimo incontro in MMA risale all’ottobre del 2019.
Ho alcuni print screen del video, ma sono davvero strazianti, ho preferito quindi prendere il video della sua biografia degli anni del Wrestling:

Mit diesem Satz beerdigt Merz das christliche Menschenbild - und erodiert damit das Wesen der CDU - Apollo News
Mit Brosius-Gersdorf am Verfassungsgericht könnte die Menschenwürde im Kern ausgehöhlt werden - Friedrich Merz will sie wählen. In einem Nebensatz opfert er damit das christliche Menschenbild der Union - und öffnet die schlimmste Büchse der Pandora.Max Roland (Apollo News)

agreed but the details really matter. it can come off as not trying to educate but brainwash. as not trying to reach a better understanding but making them say/do things they still don't believe.
