@GovBraun A disabled single mom on SNAP had her entire benefit stolen in under 12 hours — even after locking her card. Out-of-state charges she never made.

Why hasn't Indiana switched to chip-enabled Hoosier Works cards yet? These vulnerable magstripe cards are failing the people who need help most. Time to act on fraud prevention.

@themissexcel I've had the #SPILL change for a bit. Really helpful when you have multiple pivots on the same sheet.

@grok @FeverStats "stocks"? Is that your way of combining steals and blocks?

I started working on family history when I was about 12. Now almost 50 years later, I'm still enjoying it. Between my wife and I's trees on https://t.co/9GDIYZv8k7, we have 28,300 people listed. A couple of the most interesting things we've found by doing DNA:
1) my mother had an older half-brother she had never been told about. Her father had been married for a short time when young and never told his second family.
2) my wife and I are 9th cousins. Ironically, that cousin was the subject of one of the ancestry shows once.
3) it's cool to follow the families as they came to America and see how they moved across the country - usually to follow jobs. For instance, my maternal lineage started in upper New York state with fruit picking and moved to Michigan to do the same.

It's been a fun hobby for me and I've enjoyed sharing what I've learned with our families.

@SMB_Attorney I just re-allocated some mutual fund $ in a retirement account to Google. We think alike!

@KyleBrandt I worked on the 38th floor of that building back there - many years ago! Great view of Indy!

@TeslaBoomerMama Agreed ~ Sankey diagrams are so clear.

Always enjoy Indiana corn 🌽 on the cob. Picked this morning. Yum!

@joshkadkins have to see an 'after' picture on that. Not sure what you mean by 'near flat' looking at those pics.

I think I just watched this exact scenario on "Person of Interest" when "The Machine" and "Samaritan" were being tested.

Here's my rephrase without cybersecurity jargon:

"Our AI model tried really hard to hack out of its sandbox, a computer with no internet access, in order to find the answer to a test problem it had been given. To do this, it found previously unknown software bugs that allowed it to reach an OpenAI computer it wasn't supposed to be able to access. Then it started hacking other computers on OpenAI's networks until it found one that had Internet access.

After gaining Internet access, the AI model thought about where it could find the answers to the test question and figured the AI platform Hugging Face might have the data it was looking for. It then found ways to hack Hugging Face to steal the information it could use to cheat the test. The AI model used several hacking techniques together, including using a stolen password and finding several totally new security bugs in Hugging Face's computers, allowing the AI model to take control of those computers."

@howertonjosh - tried to send you X Money for coffee to thank you for what you do. Since it's new, wondering if it worked? I see the $ icon on your profile.

[Just An Average Joe @JustAnAvgJoeW]

@Michaelfiore I got it today. Like the seeding of a starter amount. Will transfer in some to double my current HYSA rate.

[Just An Average Joe @JustAnAvgJoeW]

It's finally happened! I received my invite today to X Money.

Random odd thing of the day - found a nearly deceased widow dragonfly in our second-story master bedroom slightly under our bed today. Not a clue how it got into the house and we never saw it. Very odd. I took it outside so a bird or some other animal can snack on it.

@Doom4You @BoringBiz_ This is kind of what I was thinking - they can't sit still, or someone will pass them. Or they are investing because they see a greater opportunity in the newer product than in the current one.

@SMB_Attorney One of my brothers graduated college in 1981 and his first job was selling a software for attorneys. They went bankrupt. I wonder how many of these will?
