Python Tip #213 (of 365): Replace "or"-chained equality comparisons with a containment check 🧵 Instead of this: is_vowel = c == "a" or c == "e" or c == "i" or c == "o" or c == "u" You can write this: is_vowel = c in ("a", "e", "i", "o", "u") #Python #DailyPythonTip

I realise the details are unlikely to be forthcoming, but I'd like to to know more about why OpenAI and Anthropic are unable to set up secure test environments without internet connectivity. It doesn't appear a particularly difficult task.

Every single day Github gets quietly worse and when trying to explain this to non programmers I said it'd be like if a corporation acquired the earth's atmosphere and constantly fucked it up in new and irreversible ways due to greed and ignorance, but I guess that did actually also happen.

In TypeScript, unknown is everywhere. JSON.parse, API responses, external inputs… But we still need to use the data safely. That means one thing: → we have to prove what it is So, I built a small library `is-kit`. GitHub: github.com/nyaomaru/is-...

Vague update: I've been working on an app disabled people can use to make games more accessible. Tonight the app solved an accessibility problem the dev told me they were too busy to look into. If this works, we'll be able to fix some accessibility client-side. So happy. I can't wait to publish this

With the speed and vigor of #AI adoption, I doubt we can do much about the threat to human intelligence, but legislation that requires #dataCenters to generate enough power to feed back into the grid AND implement cooling systems that don't use or pollute public water would be a viable path forward!

The damage they're causing to the environment, the way they threaten to damage human intelligence, the way they are used almost entirely to make money for the very wealthy. We don't need them. 38d.gs/feka

57 years ago today, humans first landed on the Moon. The source code that helped get them there? It’s on GitHub. Margaret Hamilton led the MIT team responsible for Apollo’s onboard flight software. (Image credit: Draper Laboratory; restoration by Adam Cuerden, via Wikimedia Commons.)

My first thought was that this had to be either #humanError or nefarious intent, with specific instructions to the #AIagent. It WAS human error... that #sandbox should have been #air-gapped. Deeper investigation finding human intent wouldn't shock me. #AI #AgenticAI www.wired.com/story/openai...

OpenAI Models Escaped Containment and Hacked Hugging Face

The cybersecurity-focused models, including GPT-5.6 Sol, broke out of a testing sandbox, exploited a zero-day, and gained access to the open internet to pull off the attack.
