Malicious LLMs empower inexperienced hackers with advanced tools
The proverbial and predictable, "This is why we can't have nice things," story -- though, I'm not quite on-board with even the "nice things" portion of that statement.
I suppose that's ONE way to force the non-believers to comply: It will become a life-or-death necessity to adopt AI as a self-defense against other AIs, regardless of one's lack of faith in the utopian future promised by the tech bros.
Rather than legislate, regulate, and "vaccinate", wait until the problem is pandemic, then sell the next generation of anti-virus software so that the populace gets robbed at both ends.

Sometimes it makes sense to go with plain old batteries and off-the-shelf PVC pipe. That’s the thinking behind [Bertrand Selva]’s clever LoRaTube project. LoRa is a fantastic solution f…Hackaday
I’ve been meaning to write this blog for well over a year, and finally managed to get it done:
bigworldsmallsasha.com/2025/12…
It's about my whole journey of writing and publishing my book (all the sweat and tears it took + how much I earned in the end), as well as a few other updates about what I've been doing over the past few years and where we'll likely head next.
Thanks to everyone who's been there for me throughout this journey! I appreciate you all 💛
My Book Release – and Other Ultra-belated Updates
I released my book in 2024 but never got around to writing a blog about it, so here it is— (better late than never, right?) In a nutshell, the book explains my story of traveling around the world for the past 15 or so years with little money (and it …Big World | Small Sasha

OPINION: The AI Crash will all be worth it if I just get to lay just a few thousand people off - The Beaverton

I was told about this incident by my son, who lives opposite where the incident took place!
Fire, blood and fury
Smothered to dullness
Got lost in the mist
Bitter memories
Eased with a nursing smile
One pill at a time
Thank goodness Preston North End improved their performance in the second half!
We came away from Hillsborough with a win, Sheffield Wednesday 2 - 3 Preston North End.
With the scores level at 2-2 our goalkeeper Daniel Iverson saved a penalty and then a little later we got the win!

Tio makes an apple pie in the motorhome (super easy) - videos.trom.tf/w/bPTrNPzGkXgF2…
You only need 5 eggs, 4 apples, a bit of sugar, flour and oil. And you can make a super tasty apple pie. You can use any other fruit so go wild with it! 😃
This is to showcase how with very little ingredients and in such a small space, you can still bake some great sweets 😃

From Imaginaries to Action: A Manifesto for Critical Digital Practice
I have published a new piece in my series on critical digital pedagogy. It examines how our digital environments shape judgment, agency and the kinds of learning that become possible. The argument calls for a move from tool centred thinking to thoughtful and imaginative digital practice that places pedagogy first.
You can read the full post here:

Hey Sasha, I just wanted to let you know that I got back your book and started reading it again from where I left off last time.... I finished part 1, it was amazing and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it! At that point I got so into it that I wanted to continue reading, but I decided to take a pause to let myself work on something with @Tio - I'm making some progress on my work but too slow for my liking lol 😅 Anyway, I hope to get back to your book and start reading the next part soon 🙃

I don't feel pressured to read it, no worries 😄 In my experience once I start reading it then I can get really into it and get through many pages, but I am not a fast reader tho so I will take my time with it - which is why I'm taking these breaks when I feel like I have other things to work on, mostly because I want to avoid eye strain.
And yeah I will let you know if I spot any typos for sure, it becomes easy to miss tho when you get really into the book and start enjoying it 😄
