And $6 for a serving of stew is close to an order of magnitude more expensive than it is if you make it at home. $5 a meal x 3 meals a day x 30 days a month is $450 a month. That's a decent amount of money, and it's questionable a

I'm not pissed off. It's tiring watching people with no idea what they're talking about repeat the same "what about ..." arguments when professionals in the field have spent decades developing and maintaining models

Your post is just a more verbose version of what I said. Your "concerns" are all well known and accounted for when calculating things like the consumer price index.

The issue is that it doesn't support his preconceived notion that everyone is doing terribly.

So they looked into it and eventually determined the root cause and then took action. I don't know why you think acknowledgement of your report is concrete evidence that coinbase knew about their breach months before it was disclosed.

They certainly could in theory, but it's hard to think of any company I'd trust to do it. These two certainly aren't on the list.

At some point, everyone on the internet knew everyone else in person or by reputation. Once that was gone, it was no longer a safe space, if it even was before then.

I'm saying that those weren't a safe haven either. The internet has been full of rogue actors and soft targets since shortly after its inception. It may have had a small enough user base to be considered a safe haven for a brief p

The internet hasn't been a safe haven since the 80s, or maybe earlier (that was before my time, and it's never been one since I got online in the early 90s). The only real solution is to implement some sort of identity management

It's wild how much the output varies for the same model for each run. I'm not sure if this was the intent or not, but it sure highlights how unreliable LLMs are.

You're correct. In another blog post where he uses "shibui" as an example of an untranslatable word, he says, "Saying shibui like that, in a mere second, conveys what would otherwise make a clunky and unnecessarily long

The author of this post goes even further than that: He says to make a list of only what you need, and then flounder while you fail to acquire the items on that list.

The Fed doesn't react to the market, it reacts to inflation and unemployment metrics for the most part. Consumer spending and employment numbers aren't looking great, so a cut is still likely. All that's happening now is ens

The solution to mitigating the damage done by AI tools in a codebase is... an AI tool? This is clearly marketing slop written by someone who has never written a line of code in their lives. Hopefully most of it was generated by an LLM!

I'm asking how you expect an auditor to confirm the absence of something in a series of black boxes that a determined and skilled adversary would like to hide.
498.
by bpt3 1y ago
You figured it out. It's trivial to include a backdoor in a large system of systems, and one placed by a remotely competent adversary will not be found. So what's the point of a regulation that can't be enforced?

Keep deflecting and spinning.

by bpt3 1y ago
Okay, if you want to pass responsibility off to someone else, how does the third party auditor do it? I'm not talking about checking a compliance box, I'm talking about actually confirming no backdoor exists.

No, that's not what I'm talking about, and you probably should get your information on foreign affairs from somewhere other than China Daily.

Why don't you go see what the PRC's neighbors think about your "territorial defense" claims about these activities in the SCS? And what's the going rate for posting this nonsense online?

How do you confirm that a train controller or any other piece of hardware does not contain a backdoor using industry standard software tools? You can write whatever you want into a contract, but if you have no way to validate it, it's

I agree with everything you said, but it doesn't seem to resonate with the masses based on voting patterns here. They don't need to have a serious conversation to succeed. Their supporters visit their site, get their dopamine hit

Because the definition of a war criminal is something who was convicted of a war crime, not being accused of committing them or observed doing something that could be considered one. You can't fact check opinions, no matter how morally
