I don't see any reason to believe that authoritarians particularly value equality or absolute sameness. I think that's wishful thinking colored by the desire to think they can easily be made into UBI supporters. What authoritarian

Stop. Just stop this madness. Nobody needs any new formats. We had s-expressions. They were OK. We had ASN.1. It was OK. We had .ini files. They were OK-ish. We had XML. It was OK. We had JSON. It was OK. We had YAML. It was OK. We had TOML

Any bailout must of course be contingent on replacing the entire board and the top three layers of management, with at least 50 percent of the replacements being outside hires. Oh, and the government gets preferred stock commensurate with i

Most of the GUIs are Web pages, though, so you could just interact directly with an HTTP server and not actually render the screen. Or you could teach it to hack into the backend and add an API... Oh, and on edit, "bizarre" and &q

Can this solve CAPTCHAs for me? It's starting to get to the point where limited biological brains can't do them.

It's just bizarre to force a computer to go through a GUI to use another computer. Of course it's going to be expensive.

The CPU is only about twice as good as the NPU, though (four times as good on one test). The NPU is being advertised as capable of 45 trillion operations per second, and he's getting 1.3 percent of that. So, OK, yeah, I concede that th

It's a tablet. It probably has like one DDR channel. It's not so much that they "fucked it up" as that they knowingly built a grossly unbalanced system so they could report a pointless number.

A slight price decrease versus other taxi services is "unbelievable value"?

Sorry, did Uber actually deliver any value other than crashing wages, bargaining power, and working conditions for taxi drivers?

So in your video, the drone kept hovering over the Trader Joe's parking lot while you talked. What would it have done if you'd truly forgotten about it and not told it where to land?

Well, that's what happens when you deliberately compromise your own infrastructure with "lawful intercept" back doors.

A reduction in the total number of horses bred or kept is not a problem. It's probably a good thing.

This sort of thing would be really nifty, except that it relies on the model using encrypted message text whenever it needs "random numbers". The thing is that I'm under the impression that people who actually use diffusion

This is not, of course, the sort of thing you do when you actually have any confidence whatsoever in your "safety measures".

Only people who exactly share OpenAI's concepts of what "alignment" and "safety" should mean can use it to its full potential.

They they've taken at least some of the hobbles off for the chain of thought, so the chain of thought will also include stuff like "I shouldn't say <forbidden thing they don't want it to say>".

OK, so there are basically three cases: 1. Charlie is running a client and downloads something. In which case Bob is an entrance node, not an exit node, but it's essentially the same thing. Charlie does know that the next hop is Bob.

> Is there some mechanism that prevents Charlie from knowing who sent the content to him? That is, in fact, the whole point of Tor. In the hidden service case, neither end can identify the other.

I was answering something about assistance to law enforcement, which isn't the same issue as facilitation of crime. "Facilitation" as an offense in itself is one of those things that tends to be a real thing, but varies a l

I actually think that Tor should deemphasize exit nodes and trying to provide access to the clearnet, in favor of better hidden services. Nearly every major site ends up either totally blocking anything that comes from a Tor relay, or apply

Courts, and even law enforcement, are actually smart enough to know that they have to enforce the laws as written and that they can't just act on their feels. At least most of the time. In many places.
