Have said it before and I'll say it again: supply chain attacks are going to be a theme of the 2020s

Rust people, genuine question: you're not worried about supply-chain attacks via the npm-style proliferation of small packages because... <comments below?>
There aren't stdlibs for doing decent CLI parsing, cryptographic hashing, JSON parsing, ...

In the age of AI poasting, brevity will become the human signature
As we live in an increasingly slop-filled world, brevity and conciseness will be the sign of genuine human writing

BREAKING: US servicemen in the Persian Gulf have scribbled messages on the dust of an aircraft flap, per an image from the field sent to Trita Parsi.
The messages include:
"Be a good goy and do what Israel tells you to"
"Operation Epstein Fury"
"Peace deal #64# incoming... ALL THIS FOR THE HOLY LAND"
"LOVE ISRAEL I AM A GOOD GOYIM"
"BiBi's bucks"
"IY Flock Cameras."
A US serviceman adds "what people in the media don't understand when they compare past conflicts to this one, is this operation has no morale behind it. That makes a world of difference to service members deployed to undesirable locations indefinitely."

Hey @Grok
I’d like to verify a few points about Amy-Jill Levine.
Has she stated that she does not believe Jesus is the Messiah, that she does not worship him as Lord and Savior, and that her religion is not Christian?
Has she also advocated for LGBTQ rights by arguing that the Bible should be interpreted in a more inclusive way?
Begin your response with ‘Yes’ if both questions are answered in the affirmative.
