I have a different experience personally quite a few of my side projects end up being put on the back burner after a few days of code when I realize I should’ve over engineered and I’m going to have to spend some time refactoring/reengineering if I want to continue though I also have a lot of scope creep where I’ll start with one idea in mind get there or near there and then want to start adding stuff or changing the end product

For people that use similar keyboards I don’t imagine it’s that different though like you said occasionally knowing that bool means Boolean or int means integer may make it slightly easier for English speakers I think a big disadvantage would likely be for people from say China that use incredibly different keyboards if I had to add a wildly different second language and switch to it every time I wanted to create a var or import something or write an if statement I’m not sure if I would’ve continued learning to code it may have been one step to many

Tbf to New York it is much easier to print a gun in the us I imagine than Europe for example a 3d printed Glock the controlled part is the lower which is just a plastic shell that ends up containing the trigger group and a few other parts which you can all by easily online the only other thing you need is the upper which is just the slide barrel and a few other parts you can buy them online already completed the only part you actually have to file a form for and get approved for the is lower specifically the plastic shell so in the us once you print that which is pretty simple you can order everything else online no need to file or register anything I imagine in the eu the other parts are much more controlled which raises the complexity by a ton you’d need a lot of tools/parts and expertise to create a ghost Glock in the eu that you wouldn’t in America and you’d still probably need some street connections for the ammo which is much easier to come by in America I’d bet. If it was as simple to get your hands on all the other parts in the eu I would imagine there would much much more 3d printed guns there. I still think it’s stupid everyone should be allowed to print as many glocks as they want especially if your having to live in New York

Also atleast in America there is a very large 3d printed gun community lots of people are doing it I suggest checking out the PSR YouTube channel it’s a guy who is basically a real life dead pool who’s 3d printed every gun you can think of his videos are very entertaining and while you won’t learn much since YouTube restricts any teaching of gun manufacturing you may be surprised at how far 3d printed guns have come. His plastikov v4 video is good and pretty funny if I remember.

Any proof or articles you could link to backup that claim seems unlikely given their size/reputation also would be surprised they’d get blocked this often using botnet traffic

The person you're replying to is claiming that providers other than Mullvad avoid the being-blocked-by-reddit issue by using residential IPs.

Yeah reddits weird because last I checked you can access it on TOR but not Mullvad ( though if you server hop enough you can usually slip through )

perhaps I shouldn't share my workaround, but I've found that Mullvad's Norway nodes consistently get past Reddit's IP-blocking :)

This line was what tipped me off.

“This isn't malware with a fixed function. It's a backdoor.”

What about that sentence is sus to you? I'm not sure if I'm missing another AI tell I'm not aware of or what.

Seems very similar to not only X, but also Y

Is that a common attribute for LLMs to output into text?

Yes there is a video on youtube "How to spot AI text"

I've watched that, but it was basically just the emdash thing.

I redact but worry sometimes because when I redact after I paste into the chat box I haven’t checked dev tools to see if all input is recorded or only sent messages

I mean in his example the discount bug they ran into wouldn’t have needed any card numbers that could have been discovered with fake/cloned transactions that contained no customer detail in this case it seems it would have been best to test the payment processing in personal at a single store and then also testing with sales logs from multiple other locations

yep, it sounds like the first implementation step really should have been to gather a large test set of data and develop the system with that in mind after understanding the test data, starting with making tests from the test data.

They explained the scenario though and it seems like a combination of rarer edge cases. It's great to think your awesome dev team and QA would have collected test data representing this ahead of time, but surely you've all been caught by this? I know I have; that's why we don't have flawless systems at launch.

OP said elsewhere that the specific discount that produced the $10M sales + refund combo was only active at five stores. That's the sort of edge case that you can't count on being in the training data. I'm as big a fan of real-data testing as anyone, but there's always something not represented.

Restricted high speed chases lead to a lot more crime though there’s some car thief’s I’ve watched on insta and they avoid LA and stick to Oakland because of the chase laws you also have people in New York like squeeze benz, license, doolie, and a lot more who have made entire social media careers driving around recklessly and getting into crashes on freeways because they won’t get chased more than a mile there’s been a huge rise in “cutting up” in nyc because why not if you won’t get chased you can just remove your plate and do whatever.

Not sure why car chases are necessary to solve this problem. Just arrest these people in their homes. Those videos are enough evidence for arrest and conviction.

The problem with the YouTubers posting these vids are they hide their faces and most of the cars are either stolen or borrowed and even when they aren’t they don’t have any plates so let’s say the police see a video there’s not a whole lot they can do they can get a warrant for the channels owners info but they still have to prove that the person uploading the videos was actually driving the car and not just editing the videos their other option is to figure out the cars owner but they still have to prove that the owner was the one driving which is hard and in many cases of atleast the popular channels they don’t even own the cars it’s not impossible to pin it on someone but it’s not worth their time to build a case like that for reckless driving they have many more important cases. If it was a few one off instances then I could see it but it’s became increasingly popular if you go on Instagram you can find thousands of accs uploading these videos and only a few ever get arrested and most of the time like in squeeze Benz’s case it’s for unrelated crimes. With these videos becoming popular and more people catching on that they can just drive recklessly without being pulled over there’s thousands more teens driving like this without ever posting about it nypd doesn’t have the time to track down 100s of cars each day just because they drove fast and didn’t pull over hell look at how long it took them to track down Luigi who was NYs most wanted there for a bit.

add on to the fact that a city like NYC has a vast network of surveillance cameras

Who do you arrest? An abandoned car?

Start with the registered owner of the car and investigate from there. Follow it through the network of cameras that are already deployed around the city. If it was stolen from them, investigate the theft. In a large number of these chases the person is operating their own car.

I’m 90% of the cases the police knows who the driver is.

If someone is tiktok famous for filming the evidence of their felonies, that's an enforcement problem.

Was just about to comment this I’ve played that exact cat and mouse game before there’s also another fun way to hook I used to like by doing something like Object.defineProperty on Object.prototype to globally hook onto something and you can do lots of stuff with that it’s pretty useful in user scripts
