nothing remotely like the described demo in the video you linked.

the blog post linked from there with remediation instructions, however, does not.

"Privacy's Defender" eh? Rather grandiose title considering that defense has been an abject historical failure.

(Not to suggest the EFF has not waged a valiant effort regardless.)


Dunno what you're quoting but it's not the linked issue.

> The only only pure fuck-up I'd call out is switching from third to first person when referring to OpenAI in the same sentence (No. 4).

"We" in this sentence refers to both parties; "they" refers to OpenAI. Not a grammatical error.


> "We" in this sentence refers to both parties

Fair enough.

> "they" refers to OpenAI. Not a grammatical error

I'd say it is. It's a press release from OpenAI. The rest of the release uses the third-person "they" to refer to Microsoft. The LLM traded accuracy for a bad joke, which is someting I associate with LinkedIn speak.

The fundmaental problem might be the OpenAI press release is vague. (And changing. It's changed at least once since I first commented.)


In isolation sure. But in context with the other points it makes it look like "they" refers to Microsoft in all the dot points.

> iOS has also had the tapping-phones-to-connect feature baked in for years (NameDrop) Well that's just because I have no idea how to find it. The "share contact?" prompt when you text a new number accomplishes the same I guess but it would be nice to skip the number part.

Some of my favorites are puzzle games but I guess I’m not a member of the "community" (is there a message board?) and I’m surprised to hear there's any consensus on anything- my experience has been that most puzzle fans have a very specific subgenre they enjoy rather than enjoying "puzzle games" as a whole. I've had such little luck finding new games I enjoy that I don't pay any attention to puzzle game recommendations u less it reminds me of a specific game I already like. I've played several games in this genre (didn't know it had a name!) and they are very much not my thing.


Same reaction - I love puzzle games (The Witness, Talos principle, Blue Prince, Myst series, Baba is You, Antichamber, Obra Dinn, Opus Magnum etc), but haven't heard of this. I guess I should give it a try!


No mention of Snakebird in the comments. So here it is.


Snakebird is my vote for best puzzle game of all time

Very similar taste in games, and I had heard of it but wrote it off as a simple puzzle game, kind of in the mobile-game-esque throwaway genre. I must have been mistaken.


One of those things is not like the others


patrick’s parabox, too


And Void Stranger. I’m surprised not to see it mentioned anywhere in the comments.


I've opened the comments just to Ctrl+F it and... only 4 hits. Depressing.

”Thinky puzzle games” is a specific subgenre and community, revolving mostly around variations of sokoban, but really has an appetite for any game that deeply explores how a few mechanics can be combined and lead to interesting consequences.


There is no consensus just like there is no single puzzle community. It’s just ‘what my favourite youtubers are talking about’

Lol. that's not how this works.


> basically every media production available.

not sure why you made this claim as its not at all germane to the discussion but this isn't even remotely true.


I can't imagine this tiny thing being able to refresh fast enough to keep up with my reading speed (not crazy fast).
