So, I'm kind of confused about what you expect to happen. You've got a pile of images with no descriptive text. What kind of query do you think would make a search engine include one of those pages in the result pages? They need s

Oh, so your objection isn't to them buying green energy, it's to them buying electricity at all? Google and Microsoft are clearly more effective users of energy than many other commercial users, i.e. creating more value per watt s

Why does it matter whether e.g. a hospital runs on renewable energy or not? Why is "industry" good but "data centers" are bad? If some companies care enough about their image to pay extra to buy green energy, that's

If you look at the actual interview, the context is police search warrants for search data, and whether people are too blaze about making sensitive searches. From the context, it's pretty clear that the intended parsing of: "If yo

I agree there is a difference between the two. The discussion was about #1, you got called out on your incorrect statements about it, and rather than admit the mistake you're pretending you were talking about #2 all along. 1 absolutely

Why are humans capable of doing that, but it's categorically impossible for LLMs? That's a very high level capability. What's the primitive it is built on that humans have but machines can't have?

Because you can have a rate limit on attempts against one user. You can't have an effective rate limit on attempts against all users in aggregate. Or rather, you could have one, but the consequence is that a brute-force attack would ca

Strongly stated and flamboyantly expressed opinions that confirm the biases of the OP. Zitron's posts have been hitting the frontpage regularly this year [0]. They don't tend to stand up to any kind of close scrutiny; the facts ar

No, it is assuming neither of those things. Each independent attempt pretty obviously has those odds, no matter how many accounts and how much time they're spread over. Your suggested countermeasure does not do anything to change those

> If we start with 2410 GWh in 2023 and grow with 59% per year that gives us 61.917 GWh in 2030. That would mean almost exactly 8 doublings in 2030. There's an order of magnitude error here. That's an increase of about 26x. 8 d

As far as I can tell, their original complaints[0] were about the Apple office they worked at, not about an Apple facility near their apartment. It is quite incredible that they've identified Apple as poisoning them by multiple differe

The section starts with him bragging about having written libraries from scratch. Given that, I really don't understand how you can arrive at them considering themselves one of the people who hasn't written libraries.

One answers is that this case isn't actually a bad law. This appears to be blatant organized piracy. What's odious about copyright laws? This also appears to be pretty much the gold standard of due process. It's not like some
