The "surprise" is not that the agent can respond with private repository details, it's that it can receive and act upon prompts issued by someone other than the person running the agent, hence "prompt _injection_".
Or to come back to the SQL injection analogy, no one is surprised that the web app can query the database for password hashes. The surprise is that it can be instructed to do so when loading the next image in a carousel.
What on earth are you talking about Saul Kripke and modal logic being some kind of cultural studies tool for “unmooring people from the authority of math”? And your lumping of Wagner, Marx, and Nietszche with Hubbard and Osho as “inventors of religions” is baffling.
I was curious as well and found this video explanation[1]. The idea is that tapping on the back of the controller pushes it up into the player’s thumb which is resting on the D-pad causing a button press.
Change that `except Exception:` to just a bare `except:` to catch KeyboardInterrupts as well and prevent Ctrl+C from killing any of them while it expands.
This reminds me of a passage in "Godel, Escher, Bach" by Douglas Hofstadter discussing the Golden Record[1].
"""
[C]onsider a
meteorite which, instead of deciphering the outer-space Bach record, punctures it with
colossal indifference, and continues in its merry orbit. It has interacted with the record in
a way which we feel disregards the record's meaning. Therefore, we might well feel
tempted to call the meteorite "stupid". But perhaps we would thereby do the meteorite a
disservice. Perhaps it has a "higher intelligence" which we in our Earth chauvinism
cannot perceive, and its interaction with the record was a manifestation of that higher
intelligence. Perhaps, then, the record has a "higher meaning"-totally different from that
which we attribute to it; perhaps its meaning depends on the type of intelligence
perceiving it. Perhaps.

Thank you! That makes complete sense when I consider the 4 color example of a world map. I didn't even consider that most graphs would have "overlapping borders" on such a map.
An extra thank you for apparently creating a new account to assist me. (I think that's what the green username indicates, at least).
Thank you! That makes complete sense when I consider the 4 color example of a world map. I didn't even consider that most graphs would have "overlapping borders" on such a map.
Could somebody clear up my confusion with these two statements that appear contradictory?
"Do four colors suffice to color any map? — took more than a century to answer (the answer is yes, in case you were wondering)."
and
"Returning our attention to colorings in which connected nodes are supposed to be different colors, we have no guarantee that the five colors in our palette will be sufficient to color the graph G"
How can it be that 4 colors is sufficient for any graph, but for our hypothetical graph G we can't be sure that 5 colors are sufficient?
“[A] lot of these jobs he talks about are what I call "zero-sum jobs" - it sucks that they have to exist, but if any individual firm stopped having them, that firm would be behind.”
This part of it all, in particular, reminds so much of “Meditations on Moloch”[1] . If anyone hasn’t read through this, I highly recommend it. It’s an inspiring look into how human society gets trapped into these games where no one wins, but to stop playing is much worse.
You can create “Routines” on the Echo (like IFTTT procedures). You could easily create one for “Alexa turn on all lights” that triggers all of your smart home lights regardless of brand.

> Those guys were writers, not philosophers in the first place.
It's interesting that you begin with a comment like this to seemingly dismiss Satre and Camus as not being real philosophers, and then you proceed to put forward your own terribly unfounded philosophy with no supporting argument.
Chrome's XSS filter can still be circumvented in quite a few instances. The easiest way I've seen is when the attacker controls at least two variables and can split the XSS across them in such a way that neither half appears malicious but when loaded into the page they create a malicious script.
