I’ve always been nervous about using Stripe after reading horror stories here. Unfortunately, I took my chances due to the ease of integration, and now I’m here with my own nightmare. We’ve used Stripe for nearly 10 years as a marketplace, only allowing Standard Accounts—never had a major issue. Until yesterday.

Researchers at the AI security company Adversa AI have found that Grok 3, the latest model released by Elon Musk's startup xAI this week, is a cybersecurity disaster waiting to happen. The team found that the model is extremely vulnerable to "simple jailbreaks," which could be used by bad actors to "reveal how to seduce kids, dispose of bodies, extract DMT, and, of course, build a bomb," according to Adversa CEO and cofounder Alex Polyakov.

Broken legs and ankles heal better if you walk on them within weeks

Twenty years ago my husband, Mark, broke his left ankle and was in a cast and on crutches for nearly two months. Last year he broke the other ankle. But this time, after surgery, his doctor surprised us by instructing Mark to walk on it two weeks later. It turns out the standard advice to stay off a broken leg bone for at least six weeks is based less on scientific evidence and more on cultural caution—physicians like to play it safe.
