you say that while I'm pretty sure the macbooks are the most popular laptop platform for developing software?

It's either that (pay $1 million or something) or find an Anthropic employee here or post on X

you might also want to try calling sales and asking if this is how their product is intended to work, they might be able to escalate


> didn't he just try find a job that pays $200k/year ?

you really think it's that easy?


If you expect it to be easy like a handout then thats the wrong attitude because then everybody would be doing it so already this points to lack of context and self awareness. If you are getting paid $200k/year, you have to be willing to see it from the other side of the table, what are you offering really?

It's also not as hard or dire as you think it is but without knowing more about your situation or what you tried, its pointless because I suspect that its going to just turn into a moping session.

I am working on 3 remote jobs that pay over 200k/year, it takes time and effort, and yes it was relatively easy for me but not in the way that you think it should be.


Claude get me a job that pays $200k/yr. Make no mistakes.

Claude get me a job that pays $200k/yr. Make a breakthrough.

reminder, these vendors like Volvo etc., don't really want you to report vulns, you should just sell them to a broker instead and get some actual money as well, it's a win win.

I don’t know why particularly here over elsewhere, but this thought really makes me feel disappointment in the whole chain of humans responsible for the cost optimization away of product integrity.

Though in this case, with all the tracking being thrown into newer cars, maybe a bit of a gap is a good thing for the future. Jailbreaking vehicles would be a cool thing to see become widespread.


there's no point in being moral when these companies with their immense resources will just ignore you or refuse to give a measly bounty

things won't change until they have to make an effort


This. If they don’t feel pressure to pay, they won’t.

More people should make them pay.


reminder, Volvo is Chinese.

Are you thinking about Volvo cars? There are two Volvo companies, Volvo cars and Volvo group. This seems to be about Volvo group which makes commercial vehicles like trucks and busses.

Also the exploit is not directly via volvo but with a third party

How so? Sources?


That would be Volvo cars. tfa is about Volvo group, which is Swedish and makes among other things Volvo trucks. (Or HGVs as they might be called in Europe)

Oh, fair. I assumed this was consumer cars.

it just makes those people dismiss it. doesn't really do any good.

I'm all for privacy and find this seizure stuff really wrong but to me it just looks like another form of "orange man bad"


The Border Patrol have been a violent and abusive branch of government since their inception. Their abuses under Republican and Democratic Presidents alike have been reported across the spectrum of America's media for many years. 'Thug' with it's roots in groups of violent organized criminals who preyed on travelers - is an accurate description for them.

I think how I'd put it is like, it's a deterministic common denominator thing iterated on, but it's not really intuitive, it's not really "what makes sense" but rather "what would x look like", similar to how you point out it is when it comes to image generation

it's useful for scaffolding but after that I'm not sure how you could rely on it without being in the loop and directing how the code should be like


> I can focus on the candidate screening and acquiring projects, everything else is fully automated

would a great candidate get excited about an AI agent reaching out to them? or would it be the desperate or clueless one?


If you're a high-end executive, people would not approach you directly but try to find a connection to you (which also serve as references).

For all other roles the first few messages are similar: this is <role X> with key challenges a,b,c. You seem to be a good fit because of d,e,f. Would you be open to explore this? This requires relocating to <place>.

Traditionally, this was done by entry-level people. In either case, this isn't the person who will jump on a call with you.

"Desperate" and "clueless" seem very strong words here in reference to someone who gets actively approached from a recruiter.


what kind of hardware would take minutes to complete the checks?

It really depends on the difficulty level chosen by the website. I'm testing on both a Xiaomi Redmi 5 and my university library's computer.

I don't know, at least in Europe it's impossible to get a job right now unless you're well connected

companies seem really eager to just decline applicants before they even get interviewed


Oof, so it's not just me.

I don't think he ever said it was "easy"
