The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

AI has outperformed in the comp-sci specialty (which has led to a lot of extrapolation fears).

an interesting dynamic is unfolding in the gov funded (and darkweb marketplace) for offensive tools.
(see for typical 2025 prices) thebestvpn.com - What is sold on the dark web

as any marketplace has a time premium, what can we expect to happen?
as AI does automated, and very adept, patching across near every non-biologic vulnerability tier, hanging on to those $$$ exploits for 'the right moment' will now have the same lifetime as any trump strategy proclamation; measured in hours and not years.

zero-day exploits, meet 0-day options.

attack surfaces now shrink by almost 1 full dimension, which means AI use on offense will slowly but surely lose to AI for defense. only all-too-human inertia will slow this down, but let's take any small win we can until we are kicked out of the loop!
