I like that as marketing copy. My brother's a carpenter, and I pushed him in the same direction. "Here's our contact details, and here's a link to the instagram where we post pictures of the cool stuff we make". I t

I wonder if that would just make them try harder. Scrape multiple times and diff, to gain confidence that the data hasn't been posioned. We've never had one of these arms races end up with the defenders winning.

Coincidence: I was just noodling around youtube and saw that "Still Alive" from Portal was added 17 years ago. I'm pretty sure I've discovered a date bug in youtube.

Erlang/Elixir is also a possibility. But I don't think either Java or Erlang were based on a PhD project? (Edit: I just looked it up, and Joe Armstrong's PhD was 2003)

I thought it was just a synonym for "shattered", but it does seem to be more than that - there's a lot of "oak tree + lightning" in there, and not much "oops, I dropped a milk jug". Maybe it's closer

Thinking about it, it's not an easy problem to define because it's got a tradeoff. Getting the content quickly (easy: poll in a loop) vs not using server resources (easy: never poll). We have to define "better" before we

Like writing lift control software. Minutes to learn, a life time to master. But I bet you can get 95% of the benefit with a simple exponential backoff scheme.

I wonder if tattoo removal bumps the risk even further - a bit like disturbing asbestos in a building. That would be a hard one to study.

Better than Russia salami-slicing its way into Europe. Ukranians are dying. We're donating cash and materiel. We're getting the better end of the deal there, and then some.

Totally fair, tbh. Stealing data for that purpose has already been normalized, so it's a much easier sell.

Yeah, if you took it outside the temperature envelope of the lab it failed. I guess thermal expansion? There were also a bunch of cells that had inputs, but no outputs. When you disconnected them... the circuit stopped working. Shades of &q

He's claimed a lot of things. Pick pretty much any neurodivergency, and it seems like you can find an interview where Musk claimed he hasn't been diagnosed, but he's totally got it. Except hypochondria, obviously. I don'
