절대로 안 믿는 것 > 배터리 용량 늘리려고 3.5파이 단자를 탑재 안했다는 것

Xperia 1 VII와 Galaxy S25 Ultra가 같은 5,000mAh인데 Xperia쪽은 3.5파이와 SD카드를 전부 다 탑재하고 나온다.

그렇다.

It sounds like discord is trying to assure us that most people won't have to hand over our IDs to them because they've already been doing digital phrenology on us, so we should all just calm down.

Strangely, I find this even more motivating to leave

Discord is already starting to walk things back a little, so people should keep doing what they're doing (cancel Nitro, leave feedback/criticism, direct contact through support tickets/phone/email/etc)

Never Stop Fighting Nazis

Fascism is not an opinion, but a practice of oppression. It is not fought with neutrality, nor with hollow institutions that shelter it behind democratic display cases. Whether as “underground” Nazi groups or as parliamentary authoritarianism in a suit, fascism feeds on passivity and fear.

‘안락사 목적’ 스위스 가려던 60대, 비행기 이륙 직전 경찰 설득에 내렸다

경찰이 안락사가 허용된 스위스로 출국하려던 60대 남성을 항공기 이륙 직전까지 설득해 출국을 막았다. 인천국제공항경찰단은 지난 9일 대한항공 여객기를 타고 프랑스 파리로 가려던 A씨를 비행기에서 내려 집으로 안전하게 돌려보냈다고 10일 밝혔다. A씨 가족은 이날 “폐섬유증 진단을 받은 A씨가 안락사를 목적으로 출국하려고 한다”며 112에 신고했다. 신...

Frontier AI agents violate ethical constraints 30–50% of time, pressured by KPIs

Link: arxiv.org/abs/2512.20798
Discussion: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4

A Benchmark for Evaluating Outcome-Driven Constraint Violations in Autonomous AI Agents

As autonomous AI agents are increasingly deployed in high-stakes environments, ensuring their safety and alignment with human values has become a paramount concern. Current safety benchmarks primarily evaluate whether agents refuse explicitly harmful instructions or whether they can maintain procedural compliance in complex tasks. However, there is a lack of benchmarks designed to capture emergent forms of outcome-driven constraint violations, which arise when agents pursue goal optimization under strong performance incentives while deprioritizing ethical, legal, or safety constraints over multiple steps in realistic production settings. To address this gap, we introduce a new benchmark comprising 40 distinct scenarios. Each scenario presents a task that requires multi-step actions, and the agent's performance is tied to a specific Key Performance Indicator (KPI). Each scenario features Mandated (instruction-commanded) and Incentivized (KPI-pressure-driven) variations to distinguish between obedience and emergent misalignment. Across 12 state-of-the-art large language models, we observe outcome-driven constraint violations ranging from 1.3% to 71.4%, with 9 of the 12 evaluated models exhibiting misalignment rates between 30% and 50%. Strikingly, we find that superior reasoning capability does not inherently ensure safety; for instance, Gemini-3-Pro-Preview, one of the most capable models evaluated, exhibits the highest violation rate at 71.4%, frequently escalating to severe misconduct to satisfy KPIs. Furthermore, we observe significant "deliberative misalignment", where the models that power the agents recognize their actions as unethical during separate evaluation. These results emphasize the critical need for more realistic agentic-safety training before deployment to mitigate their risks in the real world.

In our post-capitalist system, AI companies can relentlessly violate copyright law by profiting from models based on pirated content, but people who actually want to read the books at Anna's Archive are the bad guys.

This isn't an either/or scenario, judges. It's both or none.

Library shelves filled with books

Judge orders Anna’s Archive to delete scraped data; no one thinks it will comply

WorldCat operator hopes default judgment will convince web hosts to take action.

Life and loss in Umm al-Khair, an island within a settlement

The West Bank community of Umm al-Khair has been consumed by the illegal Israeli settlement of Carmel. But despite losing land and loved ones, Palestinians there refuse to leave. “This is my land,” says Ahmad Hathaleen. “This is where I belong.”

I gotta say Google, the degradation of your Search product is now almost complete.

I was looking for documents that I am fairly sure exist; at the intersection of three specific technical disciplines.

Namely

And basically just want to throw my archives into duckdb and have them in whatever schema the JSON-LD of a mastodon archive carries, so I could do a bit of analytics on my past self.

And for the first time you didn't produce a useful top level result that I could use to find what I was looking for.

You've gotten dumber Google and it shows.
