I've seen someone rewrite a wireguard proxy in rust for performance without realizing that it's just a daemon that interacts with the kernel to setup routing... But hey, at least the key generation is faster!

It's not only cheap, it's actually free since if you are not using your 95th percentile you are losing money.

The hard part of enrichment is getting to around 20%, after that it actually becomes easier. They're slow-decay isotopes yes, but I am fairly sure you can build a multi-stage device to create a superheated plasma to release all that en

No, it's straight up gambling mechanics. Open any trading card game and tell me that it is not filled with mechanics that effectively resemble gambling.

I don't think 10x density is possible without getting into nuclear, at least not with the chemistries we know of today, everything at a certain point becomes an explosive. Speaking of nuclear, getting tons of the material that powers m

Roblox should be outright banned in the EU or at least the top 100 games all qualify for what would be considered lootboxes/gambling and generally predatory behavior. Basically every single action you can do has a "robux" alt

Everyone including myself has attempted this relentlessly, it just doesn't work out beyond some arbitrary improvement in specific tested categories instead of broader capability increase.

We know that at the end of the day AI intelligence is closely tied to invested compute. The fact that automated AI research might spark some kind of exponencial increase in capabilities seems extremely unlikely to me. Of course we know that

AI is nowhere near the intelligence of a very educated person that has innate talent for problem solving. It does solve the problem of applying human intelligence on problems that truly need it. AI is also a great tool to see if there'

I would love having the capability of just writing json-esque SQL that has the most basic type checks, alas we live in purgatory with weird build systems to validate queries.

You can have sol write code and terra will find a plethora of bugs and rip the code apart. In reality this is just the nature of advisory prompting and why advisor from omp.sh is such a great feature. They get caught as they're being w

So it's okay for organized crime to do it, but not normal plebs? The former is obviously a lot more harmful and in reality this is just a wakeup call to get their shit together. People were dismissive of security far too long. I think

This is pretty hard to argue since for example: WireGuard is a finished piece of software. It gets: no feature updates, was designed in-full before a single line of code was written and has stood the test of time. You cannot compare that to

My biggest gripe honestly is businesses rather than any particular opensource project, opensource projects can often get away with these issues getting caught by the many eyes looking at them before they ever make it to mainline.

A lot of the problems with scoring here is that just finding exploitable code is enough, the systems are designed assuming that the attacker has near to no skill which is simply not true in the real world. This is effectively one post-train
