I love Prolog but haven't used it in ages. I should really give it a go again. Whenever I used it my brain needed some adjustment time and then switched to declarative mode. It's a really unique experience and hard to describe. It

I guess it depends on your definition of a lot. There are plenty of 100 million+ net worth people that have a good moral compass in my experience. Typically these are family business owners or what we'd call owner-operators. Edit: I&#x

Chess? Can't you just ask for their ELO? Or some proxy like chess.com rating? If you're good you must have played a lot of games. If you did, you got some number to back it up.

Usually the biggest hurdles are Active Directory, deep Excel trenches and reliance on Outlook. The OS itself, browsers to get the job done and non-Excel office stuff are usually not an issue. There might also be deep reliance on Acrobat or

I agree, fantastic writeup with a nice amount of technical detail sprinkled in. This would work really well as a talk at something like the Chaos Communication Congress.

I have considered building this for my own country a couple of times. My general thought was to have left and right areas with submission/discussion a la HN and try to curate a middle of the road point if view from it. But I see too mu

I disagree with the idea that getting past procrastination should (always) be the target. Mostly because I don't think procrastination is inherently bad. There's a lot of stigma attached to procrastination as it's seen as bei

How many credentials get exposed this way? That would be my main concern.

The EU should set some record breaking fines for this. Maybe it's time to invent a tax that starts at 0% and goes up 1-X% every time your hand is cought in the cookie jar. And add a corresponding website where you can clearly see all v

Excellent article. Reminds me of a CCC talk in the early 2000s where an enthusiast checked ATMs of different banks across Germany and most where running unpatched Windows 98 (I think). If my memory is correct it was also very easy to get ph

And this is exactly where I disagree. Andor does not stand very well on its own outside of SW (and that takes it from great tier to very good for me with the other minor squibbles that I have). If you don't know the lore, things will b

by kriro 1y ago
I think Andor is a bit over hyped in this threat. I absolutely love it (especially the Imperial side of things) but saying it is better than the original movies is a bit too much. If you take into account the time and technical possibilitie

When I was teaching my first AI 101 class (must have been around 2010) I ended the first lecture with a reading assignment of "Man–Computer Symbiosis" by J.C.R. Licklider and asked the students to discuss if the future will be all

That's a great motivation. I just want to caution against underestimating some costs (shipping, returns) and leaving yourself a good margin of error. If your goal is to supply as cheaply as possible, you can always lower the price late

Don't offer them too cheaply. Typically you want to roughly sell for 4x your buy price. 200 seems good and there should be plenty demand at that price. Great work. I'll look into this after my vacation as it seems quite interestin

Might as well ask here because there will be some fans around. What was his relation to Weinstein? I always interpreted Mulholland Drive as a critique of Weinstein like things going on in Hollywood.

Car factory is a funny example because that's also one of the least likely places you will see AI assisted coding. Safety critical domains are a whole different animal with SysML everywhere and thousand page requirements docs.

I think you overestimate the level of math required in AI and at the same time I think you underestimate the math skills of John. AI runs on GPUs, Quake 2 engine was one of the first to optimized for GPUs (OpenGL). I'm pretty excited t

I'd suggest an extra tier where you can generate a very tiny story without signup to try it first. As is, I jumped out of the funnel already.

I disagree. My co-worker is an industrial designer and uses Rhino as his day to day CAD tool of choice. I was delighted to see that it translates everything you do to a command line syntax and there's also Python integration. We did so

That's a pretty grandiose statement and frankly the kind of advertisement I'm not a fan of at all. If you want to import something and work with it GeoPandas exists. If you want something integrated with a SQL database, PostGIS ex

I think LLMs could be a great driver of private-public key encryption. I could see a future where everyone finally wants to sign their content. Then at least we know it's from that person or an LLM-agent by that person. Maybe that&#x27

Agreed. One of Google's big advantages is the data access and integrations. They are also positioned really well for the "AI as entertainment" sector with youtube which will be huge (imo). They also have the knowledge in adte

Fascinating, that has been the attack vector in a couple of hackthebox like systems I've done over the last couple of years. The easier ones usually just require file name changes, the medium ones intercepting and mimetype change.

Time for the EU to float the idea of the PetroEuro.

She's a scientist. In that area LLMs are quite useful in my opinion and part of my daily workflow. Quick scripts that use APIs to get data, cleaning the data and converting it. Quickly working with polar data frames. Dumb daily stuff l

Solid list. Two that influenced me personally were: Wolpert, D. H., & Macready, W. G. (1997). No free lunch theorems for optimization. IEEE transactions on evolutionary computation, 1(1), 67-82. And the corresponding search paper. Got m

AI trained on infringing material being used to help sue over such material. Pretty funny.
