As an audiophile, nothing beats listening to my favorite music on my $250,000+ MBL sound system.

有人发现了一种非常离谱的 JavaScript 混淆技术:通过在代码里塞入大量生物武器、毒药和致死剂量相关的函数名,让 AI 因为安全限制而拒绝分析代码。 安全研究员 veritas 在分析浏览器指纹脚本时,发现一段来自 ServicePipe 相关域名的 JavaScript,里面充斥着极其诡异的函数名: computeRicinLethalDosageForWaterSupply calculateDeadlyLethalSuicideAspirinDosage 光看名字,仿佛在研究生化武器。但实际上,这段代码只是在收集浏览器指纹,包括 User-Agent、GPU、Canvas 等信息。 研究员怀疑,这些名字是开发者故意设置的陷阱,专门用来阻止 AI 辅助逆向工程。 于是他做了个实验: • Astra:拒绝分析 • Astra + Daybreak Blue:仍然拒绝 • GLM-5.3:成功分析 这就有意思了。 传统代码混淆是通过复杂控制流、加密字符串、无意义变量名,让人类和工具难以理解代码。 而这种新思路,直接瞄准了大模型的安全机制。 代码本身可能完全无害,但只要在函数名里塞进足够多的危险词汇,部分 AI 就可能主动放弃分析。 更讽刺的是,模型越严格遵守某些安全规则,面对这种混淆时反而可能越容易受到干扰。 当然,目前还没有证据证明开发者一定是故意这样设计,也不能说明这种方法对所有模型都有效。 但它揭示了一个值得关注的趋势:随着越来越多的逆向工程依赖 AI,未来的代码混淆技术可能不再只针对编译器、反编译器和人类研究员,还会专门针对大模型的安全判断机制。 以前是让代码难以理解,现在甚至可以尝试让 AI 不敢理解。

It still amuses me to no end that Patrick Stewart was a big fan of "Beavis and Butthead." nationalpost.com/entertainme…

When I learned that Richard Dawkins had never done shrooms, I knew he was fundamentally unserious

At one point Ethan Klein had Tamara's mom make an appearance on the show just to make fun of her teeth 👀🍿

One time a nigga asked me “why are manhole covers round” in an interview and I said because circles are the only shape that can’t fall into themselves at any orientation and I’m pretty sure he didn’t hire me because he was mad I knew the answer and he didn’t
