“If you’re leaking a document, take pictures of it with the camera within Signal, which doesn’t save photos to your camera roll, and then send them to the reporter. If the document is on a screen, take pictures of the screen with the Signal app; don’t print anything out.”

"porn addiction isn't real" finally has scientific proof in a meta study because it finds the root cause - religious upbringing. And this was conducted by people who *went in thinking the addiction was real*! www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/wome...

Microsoft Research: GenAI can inhibit critical engagement with work and can potentially lead to long-term overreliance on the tool and diminished skill for independent problem-solving.
