Accidentally misaligned swarms of Agentic AI is a bit of a mouthful, so can we just say malware instead:
"A malware developed by OpenAI has attacked the Australian government website."
"Anthropic discloses another malware hacking incident."
Makes it so much clearer!

The 8 immortals. Great hike but brutal in Saturday heat.
Took me five hours to do the 11km (and 880m ascension). Out of the five hours, was moving less than three hours.

@pivotpod.bsky.social I know @karaswisher.bsky.social seems to have left the cools kid table (Blue sky!), but I am still curious why she is unable to leave the iOS ecosystem.
I get @profgalloway.com argument about luxury signal, but they must be both past that, no?
NEW: Will the Apple Watch’s new always-listening features be illegal in states that require all parties’ consent for recording?

Attorneys in CA, MA, PA and WA aren’t convinced that Apple’s privacy protections will sufficiently shield users from legal problems.

I mainly remember two times of the day.
1) When we watched live the second plane hit the tower on some newly installed big ass screen on the trading floor. Market reacted more surprise than panic with everything stopping. US colleague who was veteran from Iraq war leaving the office. 1/3
If you can accurately and completely describe the 24 hours you had at this time 25 years ago, you are old.

Having spent my youth in the Alps, I have known about Glacier Lake Outburst Flood for a while -just in 2010, they drained the water pocket under Tete Rousse, where previously started the 1892 flood-
Still, learned a lot from the always interesting Mark Bevan youtu.be/YD97s8cGrkc

You think people will realise the importance of climate change and consume less.
In fact, people are spending more time in air conditioned shopping mall hiding from the amber rain and record heat and consume more.

With the world cup coming to an end, that was for me the most amazing stats of the competition.
8% of the players were born in France.
Good luck to Aymeric Laporte tonight, as he is playing for Spain.
www.lemonde.fr/en/sports/ar...
Nearly 100 players born in France were selected for the 2026 World Cup – but only 23 play for France
It's a testament to France's success as a breeding ground for international football talent. And sometimes, France misses out on promising dual-nationality players, like Morocco's Ayyoub Bouaddi.
