This feels like countering insinuations on the Internet with insinuations on the Internet. Cellebrite doesn't publicly publish the latest support matrix so we have no real idea what progress if any they've made against recent iPho

You seem to spend most of your time on HN saying the cattle are meeting the butcher, or saying fsck responsible disclosure, or other hot takes.

I think Microsoft has also been working on this and protected resources using Conditional Access can enforce a requirement for DBT? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/msal/javascript/brow...

Isn’t AWS always quite expensive? Look at their margins and the amount of cash it throws off, versus the consumer/retail business which runs a ton more revenue but no profit. If you’re applying the same pricing structure to Kiro as to

Excluding training two of their biggest costs will be payroll and inferencing for all the free users. It’s therefore interesting that they claimed it was close: this supports the theory inferencing from paid users is a (big) money maker if

A ton of EMR systems are cloud-hosted these days. There’s already patient data for probably a billion humans in the various hyperscalers. Totally understand that approaches vary but beyond EMR there’s work to augment radiologists with compu

Most new drives are sold into consumer/end user retail around $20/TB and only seem to dip a little during sales (with most sellers also quantity limiting any sales, also). Getting to $10/TB is possible but typically involves

Why? It looks like a complete unknown and your comment history is just shilling it without any suggestion of why it is better?

Where do you see people leaving heading towards? What’s your emigration destination? It seems like most countries have their challenges and I’m curious where people who have inevitably done more research than me are landing, literally!

So you approached “Who is Jeff?” by driving by his blog, searching across thousands of old and new posts, seeking out things you find triggering, and then went to HN to say you found this? That’s one way to spend Saturday, I guess!

Bringing siblings to U.S. as a citizen is currently about a 15-17 year backlog for most countries (fourth preference), so yeah, there’s often some or a lot of waiting in these processes.

Well, your obvious choices for datacenter cooling are in some climates evaporative /or/ using a heck of a lot more energy and a closed loop system. Pick your “problem”. Water usage can also be optimized and is becoming part of the

It only enforces a restrictive covenant for 10 years. Buy land in 2026, build a few homes, repurpose to a datacenter campus in 2036. Looks like that would be entirely legal from reading the bill. If they were concerned about future redevelo

I think the question is are the Armed Forces served better by having this expertise available (on a commissioned part-time basis, with modified basic requirements) or by maintaining a bar that the person has to go through OCS and pass APFT?

Adding an extra “e” for each doesn’t create much extra mystery requiring stylometry to unmask you. More seriously, why is this essential?

Increasing amounts of traffic are flowing through Google VPN if you’re on a Pixel, and on Apple, there is iCloud Private Relay. I’d have thought the address-neighbors issue would be especially likely to catch out these situations? Overly si

Yep. Because they offer highly competitive pricing and most items are delivered next day. Both are big factors for me in choosing where to spend dollars and Amazon continues to be the market leader at each.

If your threat model needs to include “I’m (going to be) a target of major nation-state intelligence community agencies” then it’s safest to assume none of this is going to prevent them getting your data? James Mickens covered this at Monit

It’s not mockery though? It’s certainly true 99% of even the technically literate don’t use GnuPG (many because, like me, they cannot stand the GnuPG user experience). Filippo nailed it with this piece: https://words.filippo.io&#

Apple’s stance is not all E2EE is off by default… Instead there are a set of things which are E2EE when you are using Standard Data Protection and a wider set of things become E2EE when you opt-in to Advanced Data Protection. This is all cl

Likely yes although I’m not sure if the administration has fully got rid of De Minimis or figured out how to reduce from $800 USD. With UPS the added kicker is UPS charges a $70 processing fee themselves for processing something through Cus
