No one suggests the negotiated mess that exists in most standards. A single binary switch to account for hardware acceleration when it's available on both ends would have been a good decision.

It's possible that the gains are despite the noise the coarse process introduces. After two repetitions the noise may overwhelm the advantage. The residual connections resemble the Euler method (this observation led to Neural ODE'

It's unfortunate that WireGuard doesn't include a switch that if both sides agree the crypto in use would be AES and SHA256. Not due to FIPS compliance but performance and power savings. I never once used WireGuard on hardware tha

Doesn't the Chinese firewall perform sophisticated filtering? Fake TCP should not be difficult to catch. I recall reading how the firewall uses proxies to initiate connections just to see whats up.

Using bespoke sandboxing seems rather pointless, it will be brittle in ways you aren't going to be familiar with unless you spend time studying the bespoke method. Brittle as in it might break a workflow and you wouldn't know why,

This just gives OpenAI that data. Perhaps you could use a local translation model to rephrase (such as TranslateGemma). If translating English to English doesn't achieve this effect then use an intermediate language, one the model is g

For frame perfect cuts you need to re-encode. You can use lossless H264 encoding for intermediary cuts before the final one so that you don't unnecessarily degrade quality. I wonder if there is a solution which would just copy the piec

At the time of the threats the odds were likely very skewed, as in over 99% to one side. For events where a single article could be a fulcrum, it seems like a feasible strategy to wager on the 1% and then try to manipulate the writer into c

There is a solution to cheating, but it's not clear how hard it would be to implement. Cheaters are by definition anomalies, they operate with information regular players do not have. And when they use aimbots they have skills other pl

Does Proton store the payment information tied to an account for the duration of a potential chargeback period or indefinitely? Whether they store such info for cryptocurrency payments as well (no chargeback risk) would be telling.

Some of the best current voice tokenizers achieve ~12 Hz, that's many more tokens than a regular LLM would use for ultimately the same content.

The difference between gVisor and a microVM isn't very large. gVisor can even use KVM. What gVisor doesn't have is the big Linux kernel, it attempts to roll a subset of it on its own in Go. And while doing so it allows for more co

You can roll a script to do this, something that would consume a mic from Pipewire when triggered and then push results to clipboard. With a Parakeet ONNX model in between. I had cause to do the the opposite: Hotkey -> clipboard TTS
