I think the first proclamation about how x86 has reached its end I read was in 1992 when the DEC Alpha came out. (It's possibly of course there were even earlier ones.) The chorus became louder when Intel successfully convinced the e

Just as an interesting tidbit while we here are talking about UK companies it doesn't even exist in the US. The SCOTUS said so: > While it is certainly true that a central objective of for-profit corporations is to make money, moder

I do not trust the current tech bros at all for very, very good reasons even with the current so called "AI" much less with AGI. We shouldn't work towards that until we have fixed the incentives and ethics. This is very har

It's good that it's not cross platform, we do not need any more product monopolies, we have enough. Still there's a chance this will hurt the password manager market which leads to an even better outcome: we still have a mo

Well, that's fairly self evident. It's not like we are auditing thousands of lines of code: ssh.Dial("tcp", serverName, config) the tricky part , really , is the syntax for ssh config but again that's easy to unders

well, it's client. What could go wrong? I mean, it might not connect, right? I did understand it to some degree.

Well, we are currently at the "we tried nothing and we are out of ideas" stage so something needs to change.

It's not specific to deep learning, practically every industry will look at security as a cost just not worth it. When we start throwing the CEO into jail instead of making them pay a 18.5M fine for losing the data of 41 million custom

Yeah but they just added > through both automated and manual methods ... to how they access content and everyone immediately jumped to the conclusion that automated means LLM training.

Hungary, Budapest has been running battery augment trolleybuses since 2005. They are super handy if you need to divert them for any reason and also it allows for more flexible routing but their range is quite limited, only 4km. They also ex

There is a massive difference between switching on your new laptop and having a flaming big "look how cool recall is, do you want to switch it on? No? Are you sure " versus finding recall.ai or openrecall. It is much the same wit

Yes, much as airtag was sheer moral panic. Techbros never admit their myopic view.

But this article is about market cap not revenue. But even revenue is almost meaningless for the things you mention -- it's profit per employee which would be interesting. And for that, tech companies are nowhere near the top. Chec

This is nothing. An abusive spouse will easily switch it to on. It's very likely Windows will downright push you to do so anyways. How does Microsoft intend to mitigate that harm? Because AirTags worked out just fine: > AirTags have

No, it's not, read Jorge Stolfi on this. While he insists the scam should be called a Ponzi, I am not sure of that , but the name doesn't change anything at all, we could call it a Nakamoto scheme as Preston Byrne did to avoid tha

The fundamental benefit of crypto is to enrich those who collect transaction fees. There's nothing else.

This is your reminder that every crypto"currency" using a transaction fee is fundamentally a scam and everything that is happening using them is merely hype to get you involved in them.

QA costs money. Why would you spend that money? The clients are captive: replacing the system would mean replacing every room lock which is serious cost and hassle.

You contradict yourself: first you blame Windows then you blame clueless people. Here's the truth: for any organization the most secure operating system is the one your people have experience in. That's it. Good Windows sysadmins
