It doesn't have any knowledge of what a file extension is.
Usually some [partly commercialized] version systems & management platforms like #GitLab and #gitea should have some options to do so - similar to branch protection...
They explicitly perform conversions between a canonical form in the repository and a displayed form in the tree!

Maybe 🙊just maybe 🙊🙊 this could be a suitable place for.... some AI? Have files checked for things that look like Private Keys (and other things the user probably doesn't want to upload), and highlight that before uploading so the user can confirm or refuse the upload as needed?
(And also education about how to design your system so there is less chance of uploading Private Keys in the first place?)
That's why one should not manage sensitive stuff on publicly accessible servers.
In fact, every employer I worked for put their repos internally on their own servers and restricted access to only devs within corporate network/VPN to reduce the issue.

We can make something look like a cozy piece, but it's going to be a little fucky. So as you make it more realistic, it's going to lose some of that cozy, but look more like a real image.

Someone makes a joke, and then someone else riffs on it. Or tells a similar joke. And people get super up in arms about the joke being "stolen".

I remember people being up in arms about big name comedians in the early oughts stealing much of their material from unknown comics, and I (as a kid) was one of those.
I still somewhat stand by that, mostly because of the imbalance of power, but most of stand-up comedy is in the delivery.
Is this joke theft about memes?
I saw a post today where someone made a stupid joke along the lines of "I saw a programmer just typing into vi instead of using " and then a giant list of tools.
And someone else posted a screenshot of another similar joke and was like "if you steal a joke it's polite to credit the source".
And I get that comedians are selling jokes - and telling someone else's jokes has different consequences. But come on, we aren't getting paid here.
And I think the fact that a lot of social media people *are* getting paid for it, mixed amongst people who aren't makes it all pretty gross and weird.

It's documented in SSH Mastery, by the way. https://mwl.io/nonfiction/tools#ssh
Not that this has anything to do with github, of course. Pure coincidence.

Also, mobile safari doesn’t provide a decimal in their numberpad. We’ll probably hidden under a long press.
I got the money and you got the books so I'm not terribly concerned, but that's definitely weird. Will poke at.
There's other risks there, yes.
But it' s a tool, and folks should balance how they use it with their particular risk profile.

as a person who lives under capitalism:
"I guess it's time to start a revolution or just accept the destruction of truth"
It's "I trust this person to speak truly" so trusted people can sign websites. Which feels bad

I would really love digital signatures to be on more fragments of content, like I feel like the possibility of digital signatures is severely underused. But the truth value isn't something we can ever fix technically.

LL.s give up even that limited epistemology by disconnecting factual claims from their sources.

100%. I'm also struck by the entirely strange epistemology of "we see search as a way to discover information, not as a truth provider." Like..... what is the epistemological value of information that *isn't* true, or at least probably approximately true?

Content warning: "ai"
That's in essence the promise that search engines make when you ask factual questions, that they will deliver you relevant evidence to support "x claims to believe y." Thus, I always learn something from searching even if it's of limited utility.
If I ask an LLM how old the Earth is and get back 6,000 years, I've learned jack shit. In that hypothetical, it just spat back nonsense without providing me any information at all. That also means that I don't learn anything when an LLM is correct, either — there's no distinction I can use to separate those two cases, making LLMs useless to any sort of epistemology.

Like Socrates's Meno, unless you know the answer to a question already (or perhaps you are a convinced Bayesian and firmly trust your credences), you cannot recognize a correct answer with 100% certainty based on what stochastic model spits out

Being an Artist in a post-Mark world might have challenges, as well as new opportunities:
I've been to a number of art museums, and own at least a few arty coffee table books. I also still have my dorm posters from college somewhere. Therefore, I'm capable of to sketching out a piece of art in whatever style at your request.
What you, the Artist, do with after is up to you. Will you use it as a source of inspiration and then make your own masterpiece? Will you paste it on to your canvas and paint over it? Or perhaps simply sign your name to it?
All good by me, I'm just a guy named Mark!
