They're also extremely hostile to security researchers who report these issues.

It helps in that it offloads the code review burden you'd otherwise be doing.

The term of art here is "Selective Availability" and the added error margin was up to 100 meters.

Ultimately Anthropic has to compete within the bounds of the law, even when doing an anti-competitive thing would make it easier for them to compete.

And that was correctly perceived to be illegal by antitrust regulators.

Consumer GPS is still disabled at high speeds. I would argue the analogy doesn't carry due to harm and error rate differences.

If it's a violation of ToS, just reject instead of silently downgrading.

No, you did not subtract those things from the UK pay. The $86k pre tax UK wage comes down to something like $64k post tax. Whereas a $125–160k US earner in South Dakota takes home $97-120k, paying another $6k for health insurance. 91 is

What makes you say usage billing is cost prohibitive? I use as much flagship model as I could possibly want and it's like four figures a month. That's totally doable compared to SWE pay.

EU doesn't come out looking good here. Clearly the onerous regulation is stifling innovation. It was always hard to argue otherwise, but the hits keep coming.

Depending on how you look at it, Rust went like 9 years from inception to v1 (2006-2015). C went ~17 years before initial standardization (1972-1989).

The medical establishment isn't covering it up; they're just embarrassed to say it out loud, directly. Instead they talk around it. GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic may well get to a point where they can be marketed as cancer preventing.

You're double-counting the individual.

The cost of the vaccine and nurse time, yes. If you want to pay for it out of pocket, you totally can. Just ask your PCP.

There are many strains, though, and the vaccine provides coverage against a few of the most harmful, so it's still probably worth getting even if you may have been exposed to a subset of strains.

Cost and the statistical property that older people have fewer sexual partners on average. There's also a sort of fatalist assumption that you've already been maximally exposed. If the vaccine was zero cost, you'd give it to

The UK is poor and sprinting as fast as it can towards being poorer.

This is equivalent to $85,700 USD, not $63k.

This is like 90th percentile UK salary. It's good pay for the UK, a poor country.

It's mostly obesity, which the article sort of mentions ("known links to obesity") but kind of obscures by saying "obesity does not fully account for the rise" and "a clear answer remained elusive." T

It might not be the version you have installed, or the same version as another project you want to glue together into a single application.

Sure, but you can always retrofit a program to fork early on... this is a relatively trivial change. No?

Again, you're talking about userspace now. Not kernel-imposed constraints. A userspace program is always free to deadlock itself; fork doesn't change that.

by loeg 4mo ago
Of course ld-linux itself is an ELF binary. The kernel loads it.

by loeg 4mo ago
You can create threads in forked children before exec. Nothing in the kernel prevents you from invoking clone(). You're talking about libc (glibc) implementation details now; userspace programs running on the Linux kernel do not have
