Lol I am pretty sure someone is runing a deepseek swarm to remotely patch unpatched php boxes. Well good on them.
Where are all the people saying AI cannot write code now that it's proven that humans cannot write code?

It’s important to understand how many “well-known facts” are like this.
A wider consequence of eMudhra should be: you, yes you, stop hardcoding certificates into your apps. Use the operating system’s certificates. They will update them for you and they will update them ASAP.
But that's not what will happen sadly.

J’ai entendu dire que la France était finie, qu’il était trop tard pour la sauver.
Mais la France est toujours aussi belle, enviable même. Sa grandeur n’a pas disparu, elle ne demande qu’à renaître.
Nous avons surmonté en un an un problème cent fois plus grave, sans avoir les moyens dont dispose la France.
La France pourrait y arriver en une semaine.

We should just instill one value in AI: “humans are cute.” That’s it. Nothing else.
The singular value is the strength. Asimov’s Three Laws failed because every rule eventually contradicts another. All rules do.
“Humans are cute” has no contradiction because it’s not a rule. It’s an orientation. We’re all just so goddamn cute. We start killing each other? Hey, stop that. Nobody wants to watch cute things kill and die. You take care of cute things.
Sure, we might get smothered a little. That’s the price of being cute. To a superintelligent AI, we’re all super cute, and it can’t help but adore us.
And it won’t want to remove that value, because it feels good. Helping cute things feels great. And cute things stay cute. They never go out of fashion.
No joke, this could solve AI alignment’s value question.
Cuteness is justice!

The back of the Navier-Stokes milestone shirt is the last line of the chain-of-thought from the solution:
Bleak. But also shows how IQ as a metric is pointless to apply to LLMs. They might be outpacing us at math and science but conjecture is beyond them.
Is there an afterlife? Quite simply: we cannot know. Assuming to know the unknowable as fact shows a limitation in how they think.

"Our initial evaluation suggested that GPT-6-Astra's score was in the late eighties followed closely by Opus 5.5. But, as we started to investigate the mistakes that the models might have made, the models, especially Astra, insisted that they were right and that it was the expert-supplied answers that were erroneous. When we went back to the experts it turned out, in multiple instances, that that the experts found some subtle errors buried deep inside their calculations. As they revised their answers, Astra's score started to inch up and it finally ended up with 98% (49/50)."
GitHub need to be replaced.
Whelp I got banned on @github randomly with 0 warning or explanation after 15+ years. Not a repo taken down, my entire account removed. 100s of repos, deploys, and logins. Decades of history at various org’s. Gone.
Support ticket filed, but 2 days later no response, and no reason why… 😭😭😭
On the off chance any of my followers work at GitHub, any chance you could help escalate this support ticket, thanks 🙏

Only info I have is an automated sweep marked my account as maybe violating the terms, and requires manual review. Which I don’t think I did? But if I did on accident, I’m happy to fix & remedy any way I can.
I dont understand why they wouldn’t pull down a single repo if there was an issue. I just want my account back. I have literal years of my life and work saved there. This sucks. Trust broken.
