I don't know what tomorrow will look like. I don't know what will happen.

But I will rise with purpose and dedication to be kind to my community, to stand with them when it is difficult, and to link arms with those who seek to make a better world for ourselves and our kids.

That's where we start.

NEW: The National Weather Service has raised the winter storm threat to its highest level for Sunday for the entire DC region.

This means a high threat of a high impact winter storm that causes significant travel delays, closures and threats to life and property.

ANTHROPIC: β€œartificial superintelligence will certainly cause the end of the human species, which is we must build it before OpenAI does so we can have some chance of inscribing human moral values on the post-human future”

OPENAI: β€œwhat if we put ads in ChatGPT?”

3 Screenshots from the movie "Hackers" (1995): First, a young man in a sleeveless shirt sits in a cluttered room, saying "I've got a record. I was Zero Cool." Second, a group of friends gather around a table, one explaining "Zero Cool crashed 1,507 systems in one day. Biggest crash in history." Third, the same group listens as another person adds, "Front page New York Times, August 10, 1988."

Aug 10th 1988 - Zero Cool was in the New York Times for crashing 1,507 computer systems.

Attendance at the AI Security Forum is way larger than last year.

Complete guesstimate, easily 3x the number of people compared to last year, at least at the keynote.

When I arrive at LAS I feel like the Dad in Heather's when he asks "Why do I smoke these things?"

I imagined the Chatsubo in 1984. 41 years later I opened its door. Neuromancer is in production.

Have you tried

Signal>Settings>App Security
Screen Security=Yes
Incognito Keyboard=Yes

Screen security is supposed to block some forms of screen scraping. Incognito Keyboard blocks some external keyboard features.

You can't just stop there.

Or is that meant as a back-handed compliment?

The key to staying alive in outer space is resisting the urge to investigate a distress beacon.
