Yarbo - NAT In My Back
Yard. On hacking the Yarbo robotic lawnmower, including the terrifying thing that the
emergency stop button, and the release of that button, are routed through the internal MQTT
system, accessible from the outside. I'm all for people being able to control their own
devices, but when ya open that up to the world with bad security on an Internet connected
device... yikes.

a week after the court handed down a decision that hollowed out the Voting Rights Act.
The Register: Using AI to click around on a website
burns 45x as many tokens as just using APIs. Which is completely unsurprising, and
clicking around is also less deterministic, and what the fuck are we doing in a world where
we're loosing random things on web sites rather than having computers communicate in
deterministic defined ways with computers?
