Or IOW, if this valuation is right, Apple's top-end bug-bounty for top-tier security research, despite their popular image as being generous, is still about an order of magnitude below than the offensive market

It’s the 45+ years of messaging that government is wasteful and inefficient (beyond that typical of any large organization) that gets me. Everyone just accepts it as axiomatic now.

I remember there being a sort of meta game of trying to find two word phrases that resulted in exactly one result.
Now you’ll get a paragraph of AI hallucination, half a page of sponsored results, and 30k auto generated spam sites.

The idea that you can just “teach computer science” and be apolitical is a beautiful dream that expired in the 2000s, at the latest. Computer science has re-organized every facet of our society: it is inherently political. Instead of taking this idea seriously, we ran from it. Now we live in hell.
