@gak_pdx So I've wondered, how much do modern CNC machines rely on self-mapping for accuracy, or is that only done at the factory, or is that just the crazy fancy shit?

@PaulSkallas Get in loser we're going shopping

Genuine nightmare mode. I can defend against users wanting a free burrito coupon. I don't know how you stop someone interviewing for a fake $150,000 job on a corporate asset and doing whatever the carrot says.

Imagine spending all your money to defend against “agentic swarms” only to have a developer laptop get compromised because they got malware while interviewing for a better job.

In case it helps, I recorded a short video showing common causes of this issue - all are related to your tenant config

This is called an interrupt - it happens because you don't have a suitable auth method, you need to register for SSPR, or a policy requires fresh authentication

I donated and was enthusiastic about Great Slate and I was wanting you to know that I still think it was a fantastic initiative that was well-intentioned and genuine with a lot of work, and even if it did not have the outcome desired, it's something I value a lot in the experience.
