The NVIDIA keynote today mentioned on-chip encryption for model data actually. Not sure how entirely that covers your proposed case, but it’s already something they’re working on at least.

Is a model so huge that’s only at the level of GPT 3.5 actually good? That seems incredibly inefficient to me.

Really? Other than the iPhone and Apple Watch which do have clear series naming, I find it basically impossible to determine if any particular Apple product name is the latest version or several years old. The iPads especially, and the MacB

It doesn’t appear to be using the sound from the video, but elsewhere in the report for Gemini 1.5 pro it mentions it can handle sound directly as an input, without first transcribing it to text (including a chart that makes the point it’s

Compliant being the keyword there. Are you saying all of the crappy cheap low-end USB-C cables you find on Amazon are fully compliant? You have to put an effort to find brands that are actually legitimate, and pay more for that. Hence the

Instagram does something similar with suggested posts. Every time I see suggested content in my feed, I click the extra settings and tell it to “snooze suggested content for 30 days”. There’s no option to turn it off entirely, but there’s a

Arn’t video podcast still a thing? I mean I don’t watch any myself, but the technology has been there for at least a decade. If people aren’t using it, it’s probably more of a user experience or discoverability or other issue.

The hoops you have to jump through to use a local account are a prime example of user hostility. Sure it’s technically possible, but only if you are power user that searches online and figures out how. That’s the general feeling I have with

Assuming the Dropbox is synchronized somewhere to your file system, the FTP server could serve that directory. Although I guess not everyone synchronizes their Dropbox locally.

Sounds like Meta. I once had to solve a Facebook business page issue (another erroneous automated decision) that went unanswered for a year, and the only way I got it moving was to send a legal threat to Meta on a lawyer’s letterhead. Ended

That’s assuming Meta has support teams. I’ve yet to see evidence of that. I once had to solve a Facebook business page issue that went unanswered for a year, and the only way I got it moving was to send a legal threat to Meta on a lawyer’s

I’d say somewhere around half of the marking emails I receive in the USA have one-click unsubscribe. It’s still very common to have unsubscribe links that require you to enter your email address and then select that you actually want to uns

That looks like a substantially better product than the original post. Can we get an updated version of that one instead?

There’s some really crappy offbrand gaffer tape on Amazon these days. The “pro gaff“ brand which costs around $30 a roll is the good stuff I recommend. (Source: I run a theater and pay hundreds of dollars a year for gaff tape. I have tried

I still use WSL1 daily. It makes a lot more sense than WSL2 for me. If I want a VM of Linux, I’ll run a VM of Linux. The exciting thing about WSL from the beginning was the notion of actually running Linux processes in Windows without a VM.

Indeed, I’m blown away these numbers are so low. I know multiple senior software engineers at FAANG companies who make more than the software engineers on that list, and they contribute roughly nothing to society. I have zero qualms with Si

I’m still grandfathered into my $7.99 per month plan. They did not raise the cost for existing subscribers. Which is the only reason I still subscribe. Google Music went away and YouTube Music is a mess so now I use Apple Music. I would no

BTLE is much simpler than traditional Bluetooth. It’s just a matter of exposing GATT services with well-known IDs. If you search hard enough, you can probably find details for heart rate monitor service definitions. Then you can either prog

I’ve written my own chatbot interfaces on top of GPT-4 and it’s always amusing when I look at the logs and people have tried to jailbreak it to get the prompts. Usually people can get it to return something that seems legit to the user, but

I remember reading something similar about describing a chess game to one of these large language models and being able to find an internal representation of the chessboard in the parameters. Or something like that. My memory is a bit foggy

My take from the screenshot and description is you’re just disagreeing to read it now, it doesn’t appear there’s any way to actually disagree with the terms of service update itself.

In my experience in the USA, most fast food restaurants in the suburbs give away sauces for free, but the ones in cities charge for everything. Seems to also be correlated with whether or not the fast food restaurant has self serve soda fou

I think having to right click and select “open” is effectively hiding the option from the GUI, since the assumption would be that does the same thing as double clicking. The whole point of a GUI is to be discoverable, and that workaround is

2.5G and 3G networks were bad at the time, and many phone plans that included data had unlimited data. The only thing that kept them up was the fact that so few people had data-capable smart phones.

Perhaps it was a temporary thing? I was there in July of 2021 and there were these little half-height fences surrounding many of the paths and signs saying to stay off the grass. Could have been a temporary restoration thing, or some sort
