Oh, I'm dense. I thought it portrayed a scenario in which tokens were unaffordable to individuals, yet necessary for survival. Kinda like US health insurance.

Good thing there are hardly any AI companies these days.

I don't think I'd clock the ramen one as AI, if not for the main image being AI generated.

Seems like there's also a sampling bias, where the less able-bodied animals are more likely to get trapped in tar for scientists to study.

What happens if the destination/contents of the URL changes after I sign it?

Oh hey, I use that app, thanks for making it available for free! I prefer to use a "real" camera whenever possible but sometimes I'm caught without. The best camera is the one you have with you, and all that.

Isn't there also a concern that an LLM may reproduce copyrighted code verbatim (or close enough), and the original author asserts their copyright?

I'm aware, I was huh-ing at the last sentence.

It's honeypot for humans trying to enjoy quirky websites made by other humans.

I really want to try taking one and removing the camera/flash, to produce a bumpless (or at least bump-reduced) version. I'll probably wait for the price to come down some more first, though.

If you're paying a flat monthly rate, unused tokens are wasted tokens.

Based on the timestamps, I guess it's over now? I'm curious to know how LLM-resistant it ended up being in the end.

Well, as of today I am not aware of any applicable bootchain exploits. Bootroms are small, and it's plausible for there to be no software bugs to find, regardless of how smart your LLM or human brain is (which is why fault injection

What makes it possible now, is there a new mediatek bootrom vuln?

> Pin stays in the contiguous US — Alaska, Hawaii, and abroad aren’t covered. It's kinda funny to hear an LLM use such americentric language, I suppose it didn't "know" it was working on something that would be public

Man, the concept of leasing a phone is grim. The way hardware gets locked down these days, it feels like you never really own it in the first place. Leasing makes it explicit: you don't. You'll own nothing and you'll feel w

TL;DR: They marginally improved on the best known academic attack on 7-round AES-128 (which normally uses 10 rounds - you do not need to worry about AES being broken). The attack on HAWK is perhaps more interesting - they were able to halve

Google is trying to normalize a new "complete the captcha on your phone by scanning a QR code" flow, which I'm sure will be a whole new vector for scams.

I've noticed it's quite common for Show HNs, I'm not sure why it happens but I believe the account gets put in some kind of shadowban-like state where all comments are flagged by default. Perhaps it's triggered by the

Since when did Lemire need to be taken with a grain of salt?

It looks like there are exactly 4 "stimulus" images. Fair enough, but I think you'd need a larger and more diverse dataset to form any real conclusions.

The point is you can do it yourself , you don't need anyone else's guarantee.

They have devices pretty close to that, in China. Not fully automated diagnosis, but test jigs that hook up the things that need hooking up, and monitor the things that need monitoring. Search "iPhone test fixture" on aliexpress.

Sounds about right for success odds for a novice, definitely don't start out on an expensive card. Get some low-capacity DIMMs or obsolete GPUs to practice on.

As far as I can tell, it's mostly just cost of labour vs cost of buying a new device. Watching professional repair shop youtube channels is one way to get a feel for the economics of it - it's usually only worth their time if it&#

HN crowd is treating this as some sort of sorcery, you can do it at home with a $60 hot air station. The only thing approaching "secret sauce" is the BIOS modding, which varies in difficulty depending on the device. For many devic

Very interesting. Do you have any descriptions or writeups written by a human?
