I think you're going to see it's all going to converge back to screens and data and panels and buttons.

People don't want to ask the same question over and over. They'll ask something, it'll be set up to show something, and that thing will be saved as something they can always look at. Stable pre-defined glances, not blank slates each time. Common questions will become buttons and panels again.

Most people ask the same kinds of questions about what they work on most of the time. Having to start from scratch with the questions every time seems like a step backwards.

Another way to put this: Questions are wonderful for a deeper dive, but not a daily drive.

Not sure you're suggesting questions always, but the comparison screenshots looked that way.

100% agree with this part. The story isn’t “Mythos is special.” The story is “Mythos-level capability won’t stay rare or controlled.”

Open models today are basically frontier from six months ago. If that gap stays constant, you get attacker-run Mythos-level systems on their own hardware within a year - with none of the provider constraints. That’s what worries me most.

@ryancarson For updating on npm: min-release-age=7 in ~/.npmrc + committed lockfile + npm ci in CI. The 7-day age gate significantly reduces your exposure to this attack class. Malicious versions are typically taken down within hours.

Today's the day: Writebook is here! And it's free.

https://t.co/LSqaxN3IGm

Blogging and posting on social is easy. But why is it so hard to publish a whole book on the web? It’s not anymore. Writebook is remarkably simple software that allows you to publish text and pictures in a simple, browsable online book format.

It's perfect for publishing instruction manuals), a collection of short stories, poetry, graphic novels, handbooks, and anything that fits better together than apart.

Writebook isn't a service, it's software you download and install on your own server. We've made it incredibly easy to get going — it just takes a few minutes. Even non-technical folks can get it all set up. We'll email you a single command you paste into a terminal and it takes care of the rest. No maintenance required either, it takes care of itself, auto-updates, etc.

And it also comes with all the Rails code so you can see how it's built, modify it for your own use, and learn how applications like this are made.

So, grab it and dive in! We'd love to see what you publish.

A Java Springcore RCE 0day exploit has been leaked. It was leaked by a Chinese security researcher who, since sharing and/or leaking it, has deleted their Twitter account.

We have not verified the exploit.

tl;dr big if true

Earliest evidence we’ve found so far of #Log4J exploit is 2021-12-01 04:36:50 UTC. That suggests it was in the wild at least 9 days before publicly disclosed. However, don’t see evidence of mass exploitation until after public disclosure.
