I find it interesting how many people say they love driving, but behind the wheel they become aggressive and obviously stressed.

I wonder how AI agents would even be doable if security was properly taken care of. You don't want them to fuck up your system, so you put them in a sandbox. You don't want them to install malicious packages in your project so you... don't allow them to install any? Ask the user? At that point, what's the point of agents if the user needs to intervene all the time? It wouldn't even lead to solid security because most people just respond to such prompts with "continue and leave me alone" without spending a single second to check what it's about to do.

@fuchsiii @puppygirlhornypost2 Insiders should be the same, I think. You can still update an extension immediately with the 'Update' button after all, so those who want to YOLO can still do it

Note: This delay does not apply to extensions from trusted publishers such as Microsoft, GitHub, and OpenAI. These extensions continue to update immediately.

Someone needs to explain to Microsoft what the effects of supply chain attacks are

VS Code Adds 2-Hour Extension Auto-Update Delay to Limit Supply Chain Attacks

How will attacks be found in these two hours if the people who may notice will get the update later, like anyone else? "But Volpeon, this gives Microsoft time to find these attacks" Okay, why not switch to an approval model then?

I just can't fathom the thought process. Like sure, sometimes it can be annoying to check the data. But this pales in comparison to code that assumes the happy path and then fails at runtime.

Me: makes type of user-provided data unknown
What I expect in response: appropriate checks to make sure the data is what we expect
What I get: const something = userData.something as OldType;

I find it exhausting how some people think that if a stricter type uncovers potential problems, they need to trick the type checker into accepting the unsafe code instead of fixing the code so the problem doesn't exist.

@PsyChuan You reminded me of an old game I used to play, and not only is the website still there and getting updates, you can even play the game in the browser now
