Prior to smart phones, programming on phones was much more inaccessible due to hardware fragmentation. Mobile Apps are popular and APIs are available everywhere. Some deployed apps include implementations of BASIC, Python and other language

The most exciting thing I got from the discussion is this: https://github.com/feizc/Visual-LLaMA Someone claims to be working on a modified LLaMA model to understand images. He also appears to be working on a large num

As I suspected, this browser, just like the Tor browser, does NOT protect you from basic browser leaks. There are gaping issues and after looking at the github issues, the maintainers are certain that their current strategy is effective. Th

I'm not advocating for this browser specifically, only encouraging more people to take pro-privacy and online safety measures. It's pointless to say the problem is the employer, or the hacker who released the data, or the programm

The issue is that depending on the situation, and on the patient in question, the intervention will shift from decision, to persuasion to mandatory. For example, if you have a positive test for cancer, they will persuade you to follow it up

I may have missed the detail, but it also expects the pytorch conversion rather than original LLaMa model.

I didn't say it prevents tracking, I was offering a litmus test for a VPN to the question of red flags. If it doesn't pass the litmus test, preventing tracking is the least of your concerns.

If humans still exist, those things will still hold value. I can't say for sure humans will survive in the same quantities once all things settle, but let's imagine we are in a future where deep learning has matured and netflix, s

My hot-take is that people trying Arch derivatives as their first linux has and will continue to hinder linux desktop uptake. That being said I believe the Steam Deck OS is an arch derivative. I will allow this one to be the exception to th

Very accurate. The CIA is actively involved in the interference of their 'allies' governments. Japan didn't break from US in this news article, it received permission to do so, likely so that it can remain in a defensible pos

Long-term services are great targets for governments. If you were to looking for some trust in a VPN, you would want them to offer locations in privacy friendly countries, and highlighting them as such. That would potentially funnel more us

Browser fingerprinting is exactly that. And the browser leaks are an even more concerning issue that must be confirmed. Websites want to know who you are or at least that you're not a bot. As a pro-privacy user, you don't want web

Simply download the Tor browser and evaluate its performance on one of the many browser fingerprint [1][2] and browser leak [3][4] web services. The last time I checked, it didn't pass every test. [1] https://www.amiunique.o

The last time I tried the Tor browser, it did not sufficiently handle browser finger prints. I don't have high expectations out of this project either, but at least they offer a firefox extension. I'd have to dig into it to determ

The issue tracker and pull requests are being hit with very funny suggestions. Many people suspect this is an April Fools joke. It's possible this entire repo was generated by a LLM to appear plausible. I especially like the suggestion
