Oh dear. Did a git pull, and now the pnpm build process is asking for my github password.

I have a very bad feeling about this...

there comes a point during a whipits binge at which you start sifting through a mixed pile of chargers looking for the ones that still have a seal and this is how we envision the types of guys that are trapped in pseudoproductive loops where they use their chatbot to use their chatbot to use their chatbot to use their chatbot to use their chatbot (d.c. al coda) and never actually do anything besides produce a bunch of foam

watch your llms.txt... Dan Lyke / comment 0

Bwahahaha! Claude, Codex, and Hermes installed unowned code inside corporate networks

Researchers at a stealth startup in Israel scanned 6,214 live domains belonging to defense contractors, Fortune 500, and Big Tech companies. Of the 8,265 llms.txt and llms-full.txt files they found (many sites hosted both an llms.txt and an llms-full.txt file), 120 of them, each on a different site, pointed to one or more code packages or domain names that weren’t registered. To test what happens when an AI agent processes such files, the researchers registered a handful of the unclaimed names and hosted packages that caused any machine executing them to reach out to their server. Within an hour, the researchers received a phone-home response from a Fortune 500 company.
