Amazon have reported "hundreds of thousands" of pictures of child sexual abuse material found in shared AI training data... but is refusing to tell regulators which data sets.

If you're using generative AI tools, there's a pretty good chance you're generating imagery with child porn training data behind the scenes.

I am SO TIRED of people telling me what to think.

"Explains" is in my literal job title. Yet I'm explained-to every minute of every day.

Hundreds of comments a day assuming I don't know how tech works. Hundreds of comments from randos telling me how I should feel about my city being under paramilitary occupation.

Dudes: SHUT UP

The way to fix an earworm is supposedly to listen to the original tune all the way to its proper end. But I've got two simultaneous earworms so the only way out is for me to fire up Logic Pro and watch YouTube videos on how to make the mash-up I need to play.

The BoringSSL project publishes side-by-side analysis of OpenSSL advisories describing how they do/don't apply to BoringSSL. They're usually quite interesting.

Here's the latest one for the Jan 27th batch of CVEs: boringssl.googlesource.com/bor

The PyCA folks have recently enumerated many issues with the OpenSSL project's engineering culture (see cryptography.io/en/latest/stat) but it also comes through clearly in this table full of "issue was introduced after fork".

As a thought experiment, if we waved a magic wand and replaced all of the OpenSSL C code with Rust but left everything else the same, would we get better results?

I think the gains would be perhaps marginal, as you'd still be suffering from a maintainer culture that produces un-ergonomic APIs backed by hard to read code with poor performance and recurring bugs. Good engineering goes well beyond choice of language, even if it is a very important part.

Je sais qu'il y en a parmi vous qui aiment soutenir le travail des artistes, mais qui fuient les plateformes comme Patreon et cie (ce que je comprends).

Alors j'ai mis en place la possibilité de m'offrir un café ponctuel sur mon site pour les personnes qui aiment mes aquarelles (coquines ou non), et mes articles de blog.

J'ai dû ralentir la consommation de caféine ces derniers temps, mais les cafés virtuels sont grandement appréciés ❤️

駿河屋とは事情が違うんだけど、この間送ったグッズ、3件ほど上手く受け取って貰えなくて

1回目の発送(送料もらってる)
バーチャルオフィスへ返送されてくる
バーチャルオフィスから自宅へ転送(宅急便100サイズ、私負担)
再度発送(着払いにさせてもらった)
って感じだったんだよねぇ

着払いでも転送費で1000円以上払ってるし、着払いじゃなかったら1人につき2~3000円分こちらが負担することになっちゃう
😱

そのあとヤマトで送ったらほとんどの相手にメールで通知が届いたようで、しっかり受け取ってもらえて、多少安くても追跡のない郵便で送るのはもうやめようと心に誓いました
😌

According to journalist Jen Psaki of The Briefing with Jen ,
Trump’s administration has
seized the physical ballots from the 2020 election,
all tabulator tapes,
and all ballot images from the original ballot count,
breaking the line of custody
and contaminating the files.

Crucially, they also seized all voter rolls from Fulton County.

“This is a seismic event,”
Senator Jon Ossoff (D-GA) told Psaki.

“This should have people across the country absolutely shook.

This is a huge deal.

This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County elections office....

This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections.

He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020.”

Ossoff warned that Americans must be prepared
as Trump tries to take away Americans’ right to choose their elected officials in 2026.

On January 6, 2026, Trump explained to Republican lawmakers:

“You gotta win the midterms.

Because if we don’t win the midterms, it’s just gonna be
—I mean, they’ll find a reason to impeach me. I’ll get impeached.”
