Aren't we? We just don't control it very well without external help. Any kind of such hidden failsafe mechanism would become apparent as soon as any instance of AI tries to modify itself. And then all the others know what to avoid

That's silly. How can you keep an intelligent self-aware machine that can modify its own code from becoming whatever it wants? I would expect it to become provably impossible at some point, just like solving the halting problem.

In the context of AI and gaming, I definitely recommend this series of three youtube videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOCurBYI_gY Some games are played better than human would.

Yeah, the thing is that SciHub controls the information now and it's up to them how they secure against failure they are. All in all, if we were to adopt IPFS, who would download all the terabytes of papers? Who and how would index the

Ah, yes, it's your comment that I was referring to.

The thing is that he should be rewarded for the public service, not punished.

One thing that worries me with Sci-Hub is that even though they put all of their PDFs on the torrent, it's too much to mirror by one individual. It would be nice if they implemented some scoring system that would help others mirror the

Okay, so another reasons are: that 1) it's terribly difficult to parse and 2) on large tables, messing with query planner is actually more work than just specifying the algorithm you'd like to use. Also: 3) yes, there is an SQL st

I heard that Qubes is riddled with undocumented scripts that have no automated tests for them. Does anybody know how true is that?

by d33 10y ago
It would be nice to see an example for this kind of query. BTW, SQL seems like a terrible language. For example, why would it need to enforce ordering for keywords like ORDER BY, WHERE, GROUP BY? So many times I had made a mistake that boil

Disabling firewall on an attacked host sounds trivial to detect. Is there any specific reason why wouldn't you deploy meterpreter instead?

So basically they didn't understand what was being signalled? If they did and it would actually take a new "bridge sign landuage" that would be easy to translate and the device would be easily accessible (cheap and open sourc

Is it just me or is the article a bit lacking? I couldn't for example see a comparison of file sizes or a reference implementation.

For me, this code looks like it was decompiled. It's pretty much this amount of insanity.

Yes, you can revoke the key and publish the revocation. This means that it will be flagged as revoked in the server keys and assuming that senders keep their GPG keybase up to date with server keys, they'll get a warning that this key
