It's cyberpunk if it ends up with an actual brain-computer interface, which it won't. Probably he just read about the pit of despair and thought animal torture was yet another field he could improve with computers.

Harlow also wanted to test how isolation would affect parenting skills, but the isolates were unable to mate. Artificial insemination had not then been developed; instead, Harlow devised what he called a "rape rack"

"Write what you know." :v:

"Write what you know" means capturing emotions and experiences and turning them into something new, using your background and unique perspective to create something intimate to you and interesting to others, not literally writing about yourself!

Condo games are usually only live for a short time - often less than an hour - before they are discovered and taken down. Roblox says it is constantly trying to take these games offline - using both manual and automated systems.

"We conduct a safety review of every single image, video, and audio file uploaded to Roblox, using a combination of human and machine detection," it said.

These condos are not games you would stumble on. You would need to actively search for them.

Roblox told the BBC they had developed 'Parental Control' tools, "that can be used to restrict who children interact with and which experiences they can access".

But the BBC found inappropriate sexual language in legitimate games too.

I took a seminar on science technology and history and there was this long insufferable book we read about how everyone is a cyborg because cybernation has cyborgized our lives and it was totally incoherent, I still don't quite understand the use of "cyborg" in the context of STS but it seems to mean "any individual who has to interact with technology repeatedly as part of their daily life"

Okay that makes sense but if it's possible to include malware w the source code, wouldn't it be SOP to safeguard against it? Was the company in this case just being careless?

E: it's baffling to me that this kind of important information got wiped bc some zealots spiked the source code.

Like the other guy said, test server was in a Western country, production server was in Belarus. Totally undetectable without hearing of the black hat supply chain attack ahead of time.

Seems odd they wouldn't have older builds floating around somewhere, my lovely react site has a ton of redundancy and local builds.

Saying they lost literally everything makes me question the story more than anything.

Well, it wasn't the build, it was the data. TBH I believe an NGO would have poor data recovery practices. Though it's still totally possible it's a plausibly-fabricated story to scare the hacker straight.
