I went to grab Bobby Tables and found this new variation
Why hope they sanitize their inputs?
Why are they trusting an AI that cant even do math to give notes to tests?
Because it’s the most efficient. With students handing in AI theses, it’s only sensible to have teachers use AI to grade them. No we only need to have teachers use AI to create exam questions and education becomes a fully automated process. Then everyone can go home early.
The problem with LLM AIs Ous that you can’t sanitize the inputs safely. There is no difference between the program (initial prompt from the developer) and the data (your form input)
You can make it more resistant to overwriting instructions at least
You can try, but you can’t make it correct. My ideal is to write code once that is bug-free. That’s very difficult, but not fundamentally impossible. Especially in small well-scrutinized areas that are critical for security it is possible with enough care and effort to write code with no security bugs. With LLM AI tools that’s not even theoretically possible, let alone practical. You will just need to be forever updating your prompt to mitigate the free latest most fashionable prompt injections.
I asked an AI to calculate a side of a triangle today. The hypotenuse was 24 and both opposite sides were equal, with two small angles of 10° and a wide one of 160°. The answer should have been something a little over 12... And it very confidently said 25. That makes zero sense. Fucking AI really is stupid isn't it.
https://xkcd.com/327 the original is even better :)
I'm confused by this comment. "The original is even better" reads like you are informing TO about the original. But you'd expect them to be aware of it, what with them referencing the joke nickname and saying "a new variation".
It's mostly confusing because there are clearer ways of posting the original comic for the uninformed than referencing the only person certain to have seen it.
I’m confused by your post.
-
theirs is a reaction to someone posting a cartoon as a comment.
-
they give a link to the original. (And before you say that that post had to have been edited to add the link, it would be marked as such, like this one, and it doesn’t show that the post is edited)
-
anyone can see those comments. It’s not limited to just the poster, unless you’re not on Lemmy, but instead are viewing this thread from someplace else in the fediverse, like Mastodon.
Isn't it actually illegal to call your child "null" or "nil" in some places
It depends on where you live. Some regions have a limited list of acceptable names, some places just have limited lists of unacceptable names, but I can't find anywhere that explicitly bans Null.
It does suck to be named Null, though. It's like two steps down from not being given a social security number as an infant
Back in the 60s or early 70s the authorities rejected Grace Slick of Jefferson Airplane trying to name her kid "God". But Frank Zappa got away with Dweezil and Moon Unit. And now there's Elon Musk's kid, "X Æ A-12".
Oh Little Bobby Tables!

You can also set your profile picture to 'missing/broken image' icon.
Why would anyone do that?
It doesn't make it to our devs. I just null the field and cry a little inside at how terrible our platform can be
So... how long you been at Amazon?
Hah speaking of that just had a bunch of difficulty with Amazon accounts last night. In the end I created a new one, it's just for a firestick that runs VLC and steamlink. But it was refusing to install anything.
I've heard that Amazon's IT is very siloed, with very little internal collaboration. I don't know if it's cutthroat competitive or what, but one guy I worked for said he had seen so much wacky work from people who had come from Amazon, especially if it was their first and only job out of school, he didn't even interview people anymore if they had much Amazon on their resumes.
I had no idea this was a thing.
Thanks. I'll use it. I'll use it a lot.
I did this to myself last week on a new project. Spent an hour trying to track down at what point in my code the data from the database got converted to [Object object]. Finally decided to check the db itself and realized that the [Object object] was coming from inside the house the whole time and the error in my code was when the entry was being written smh
Sanity checks
Always, always check if your assumptions are true
- am i even running the function?
- is this value what i think it is?
- what is responsible for loading this data, and does it work as expected?
- am i pointed at the right database?
- is my configuration set and loaded in correctly?
print("hello") print("hello1") .... print("wtf!")
What the fuck is that stock image? They really said "contemplating suicide but make it corporate".
I'd assume the noose is edited in
It's actually not, I've looked through all of the stock images of this guy and in some he was holding the noose in his hands.
Do you have the source?
Here, I hope this doesn't get me banned or smth lmao

I have saved it outside of Lemmy!
And that picture's... Memable!
You're probably right.
Here’s a list of reasons this is not advisable:
[object Object]
Me, the dev: "Nobody reported this as a problem… Ok, don't care, moving on." Also, if I can't reproduce it, I can't fix it, no point in wasting time more than that.
I know right ?
