GenAI is a giant search engine, and it doesn't do more for malware than a slightly shittier Google would. Malware has been using polymorphism since I didn't have grey hair and drank less. Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.

Who am I going to see there? Looking forward to seeing some pals :)

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

In under 1600 words.

To give Kyle some credit, he's been writing (and speaking) brilliantly and beautifully for years on a variety of topics

This is not what they actually say. This is what they used to say, in the long ago before times when Shaheen learned to do politics. There is no kumbaya median voter anymore. The question you get knocking doors is not "why can't you all just work together?" it's "why didn't / will you fight harder?
Shaheen: "When I talk to my constituents in New Hampshire, you know what they say to me? They say, 'Why can't you all just work together to address the problems that are facing this country?'"

I have some bad news for you about actual law enforcement. You might want to sit down for this.
These cannot be actual law enforcement. They don't even know the basic rules of firearms handling
