Wow, never considered the possibility of a “flood” mode for traceroute. This is hilarious !

Or an exceedingly rare random bit flip very subtly altered the simulated physics behavior…

Isn’t China doing something like this ? Wonder if it could degrade to something worse than the status quo where reputations are falsely tarnished by competitors purely as a weapon to get ahead…

The problem is that knowledge in a LLM is separated in the mathematical sense (vector direction) but not necessarily meaningfully grouped in the matrix (would be easier to split between disk/memory) if such. I think a rough analog is t

Initial impression is that is is a weird stew of ghostty mixed with all the things HashiCorp tried to do…

Or such a fusion will be in the next release of systemd…

Is such sophistication even needed? What about asking it to translate “War and Peace” to Klingon and then summarize it?

Well… they’re putting their signature on the stuff and blocking everything lacking it…

I’d certainly expect so. There are cheap dongles that spoof the EDID for a fixed 4K or HD monitor with fixed settings. Not sure what they do about DCC/CI, might just disconnect it.

Indeed. But still amazed we did anything about it, since it didn’t immediately affect population centers or cause economic impacts. I just can’t see the same happening in today’s political climate…

$100M funding is a hell of a lot of money. Yeah, prominent thing run by famous guy … but why so much funding so early? What does $100M enable in the next 5-10 years that $25M doesn’t?

Reminds me of photos in games about 30 years ago…

To me, conjectures seem less useful than a meteorologist offering weather predictions. Aside from mere intellectual entertainment, they are worthless in the practical sense. They cannot be used in proofs, nor aid in solutions of other pro

True - unlike a car, it’s not like one could open a window in a plane. Just hope they don’t make an “ad-free” window a premium upgrade…

I also thought rebase was scary long ago. It is scary in the sense if one messes something up without realizing and then pushes to master… Besides interactive rebase, my other favorite command is “git log —-oneline origin/master..HEAD

People paint this as a bad thing but wouldn’t directly reporting the UUID from the DMI info be far worse? (Kinda amazed they just didn’t to that instead)

I’m not entirely sure other startups necessarily want to succeed… Their goal often seems not to be toward a successful, sustainable product. They just market their vision in the hopes of being acquired. A few fewer failures might not be en

It certainly would have been easier to imagine UI design trends going in reverse - toward explicit designs with a standardized interface (menus, etc).

DIMMs and SSD prices are about to go “plaid”.

In large orgs, each team spends a ridiculous amount of effort adding the “glue” logic to work around design/architectural issues with the other teams’ products they interface with. Neither one really understands the other’s component.

The issue was never coding. Today, developers assemble a Tower of Babel built of libraries they do not understand. Those libraries were largely built the same way. There is “no value” in a company maintaining their own purpose-optimized HT

Would this actually work? Surely, they have a mandatory arbitration clause in their customer agreement..? And which state’s court?

Do sustainable tech startups actually exist?

Seems like it’s also assuming in 5 years from now people will still want an AI router. How many people even use more than one search engine? A “search engine router” wouldn’t be very successful… If AI tokens become unlimited like cell phone

Wouldn’t it be cheaper to just spend $1B reimplementing it? (Of course that is absurd, $10M would be plenty)

Home construction information is publicly available, but it doesn’t mean you can add a room to your home without government approval, even if you do all the work yourself! BTW - When was the last time you saw mentions of DeCSS?

Nikola Tesla secured a loan with a fake “Death Ray” as collateral. Pretty sure OpenAI really thinks this is top notch marketing. Few would be bold enough to assert “our product is so powerful even we can’t control it” with a straight face w

What about rowhammer attacks ? Wonder if they could be used to introduce “correctable” errors…
