This week, LastPass, and its parent company GoTo, both published blog posts about their recent data breach: tcrn.ch/3ucMvBx
But if you search for GoTo's blog post in Google, you won't find it, because GoTo hid its breach notice from search engines using "noindex" code.

Fellow academics:
Strongly consider changing your syllabi now, and designing assignments that can't be fulfilled by #AI chatbots. Even better, consider only assigning work that students will actually be excited to do themselves (for instance, autobiographical essays).
I just got OpenAI to write a better essay on #minstrelsy & US #popmusic than most of my UG students could muster, in about 1 second.
![Q: Write a short academic essay about the impact of 19th-Century minstrelsy on 21st-Century American pop music
A: The 19th Century was a time of great change in the United States, including the rise of minstrelsy as a popular form of entertainment. Minstrelsy, which originated in the 1830s, involved white performers using makeup to blacken their faces and perform caricatured representations of African-American slaves. These performances often included offensive stereotypes and were intended to be humorous, but they were also deeply hurtful and contributed to the spread of racism in American society.
In the 21st Century, the impact of minstrelsy can still be seen in American pop music. Many contemporary pop songs and music videos contain elements that can be traced back to the stereotypes and caricatures of minstrelsy. For example, the use of blackface in music videos and live performances by artists such as Justin Timberlake and Macklemore has sparked controversy and accusations of cultural appropriation.
Furthermore, the exaggerated and offensive stereotypes of African-Americans that were prevalent in minstrelsy continue to be perpetuated in some contemporary pop music. For instance, certain rap and hip-hop songs often portray African-American men as violent and criminal, echoing the damaging stereotypes that were prevalent in minstrel shows.

Last RT: Remember that accessibility overlays are trackers. I raised concerns about them tracking non-HIPPA health data (adrianroselli.com/2022/08/ftc-…).
At least one compounding gap can be closed — making them maybe illegal on some health sites.

I just found this method on Reddit for piggybacking off Google get an RSS feed even if the web site doesn't provide one. Using Google is not ideal, but it's nice to have a workaround.
It's this format, just swap out the URL at the end:

I asked ChatGPT to create a SwiftUI app that plays the game of life. It gave me some SwiftUI views but left the simulation function empty with a "todo". So I just asked it to implement that function - and it did. That generated another helper function with a "todo" body. So I asked it to fill that in as well.
I pasted all of this into Playgrounds and fixed some minor bugs and it worked.
Probably this could have been done with Copilot, too, but this felt pretty magical.
I had to fix a bug with the layout - it tried to use the Grid view, but it confused it with ForEach. Maybe I could have had it correct it with a bit of conversation? It also didn't initially have any data in the gameBoard array - so I just added that myself.
I know a lot of people are playing with Copilot and have had similarly amazing results, but this just kind of blows me away. I could see conversing to a complete functional app in the not-to-distant future. Like on the Holodeck.
