An interesting point for me was that they acknowledged the flaws in their previous benchmarks.

We owe a word on durability. The previous round of benchmark results ran with fsync disabled for every engine - leaving each database's writes in the OS page cache rather than flushed to disk. Every database in the comparison ran with the same setting, so nothing was being "fudged" relative to the other engines, but we didn't make the setting explicit, and the headline numbers ended up describing a workload that most production deployments would not likely run.This round is different. Every database in these benchmarks runs with full disk durability enabled - fsync on, WAL flushed on every commit, no buffered writes hiding behind the page cache. The configuration files for each engine are checked into the  so anyone can audit them. The numbers above are what each engine sustains when every committed transaction is on disk before the client gets an acknowledgement. That's slower than the cache-friendly numbers you'll find in some marketing posts, ours included, but it's the only honest way to compare databases that are going to outlive a power outage.

The flo app apparently shared data with Facebook. Besides that, there already have been multiple cases where police used Flock cameras for abortion investigations, so this really isn't that far fetched.

I'd say go ahead but make sure it produces accurate enough results and make sure to add something like [AI Transcribed] in front so people can take the potential for additional errors into consideration when reading it.

Also, if you're using an online service make sure you're using something that doesn't use it as training data. Many (probably almost all) artists / photographers won't appreciate that.

Almost all OCR tools use machine learning AFAIK, the commonly used Tesseract OCR software also uses a neural network.

It certainly isn't AGI, but AI just means machine learning nowadays.

Plebbit, they don't moderate anything AFAIK (with predictable results)

Okay,

So let me get this straight, when I actively asked you to communicate with me, you refused, humiliated me and made sure to insult me in front of people.

You defame me in public with your CVE-2026-45585 advisory even though you literally deleted the Microsoft account I used to report bugs to you with and I got zero pennies from doing so and I still happily did like an idiot.

Now you take the courtesy to flag my github account and wipe it out of the public, just like that ? You are proving to everyone that you actively escalating this conflict but I'm done begging you.

I might sound like crazy idiot who is whinning around but I have proof for every single word I said, I just can't release it yet. Why ? Microsoft still has chains in my hands, it's been like this for years and I just can't stay silent anymore. I hope I can release the documents soon.

Mark this date July 14th, I will make sure your bones are shattered that day. Nothing will be released this June (or maybe I will release smtg, depending on circumstances).

Also,

CVE-2026-45498 is UnDefend

CVE-2026-41091 is RedSun

It's a sketch imitating the famous "expert reviews movie" videos of Business Insiders. I liked it because the editing and overall style is spot on.

Most older people I know IRL can't spot generated images, my Gen Z coworkers always can.

Perhaps Kopia? It supports compression and deduplication.
