It's always been one. Every single technical auditor I've dealt with has been majorly incompetent and wanted to do things that would decrease security. And these were not some cheap bottom of the barrel companies but the big &quot

To be fair, I'm running a selfhosted livekit deployment at work and it's a major pain in the ass. Obviously proton should selfhost everything but I can understand why they didn't want to.

How will they push it?

In some places the purchasing decisions are not made by technical people. The infrastructure team gets azure budget and that's what they have to work with. At my work the sales people regularly come to us with some azure discount they

I've heard it phrased as: Would you rather LLM trained on your comments, or one trained on facebook comments. Obviously that's a false dichotomy and a pretty defeatist attitude. But it does have a point.

Beautiful thing about percentages...

FreeCAD is perfectly good user interface for opencascade. The problem is that as your geometry gets more complicated you start running into the kernel limitations.

by progbits 6mo ago
Indeed. I would love for it to be true, but aside from opencascade^1 all the professional kernels are proprietary and not in the training set, so LLMs can't just regurgitate them. ^1: Which I really appreciate, but let's be real,

This is both good and bad. Good ASR can often understand low quality / garbled speech that I could not figure out, but it also "over corrects" sometimes and replaces correct but low prior words with incorrect but much more co

Stock barely moved after this news. Would be surprised if it isn't below 100 by H2.

If you are not yet in Oracle's clutches you have to be extremely naive or shortsighted to be using Oracle cloud. Obviously the low prices are because they have a shit product and shit reputation, and the moment they think they captured

So much "thorough investigation" done but the author did not consider turning off claude for 10 minutes to see if the problems stops? lol Flagged the submission as it's inaccurate. Will unflag if title gets changed to somethi

Couldn't agree more. Yet many of these tools have setup like: create a service account, give it about thousand permissions (if not outright full ownership) and send us the JSON private key. At least they make the red flag nice and obvi

Friendly reminder that just because someone is building security software it doesn't mean they are competent and won't cause more harm than good. Every month the security team wants me to give full code or cloud access to some new

On private trackers where people care about that stuff it's easier. The NFO usually has a pretty comprehensive description of the contents and all the tracks etc so you can decide which version you want before downloading.

But that's a different style from the these colorful border rounded boxes that I think Claude in particular loves to produce.

Those claims were never confirmed, no? Some of it might be true or trueish but I'm not talking Bloomberg's anonymous sources word for it, and with so much supermicro gear out there you would think some other evidence would show up

They all have this rounded box design as well. I wonder where that came from, I don't think it was a predominant style before.

You had me in the first half, the last paragraph is going way too far.

Not sure cost saving is the priority. I got solar installed by the local power company and while it's well done and was a great deal regarding the price, the inverter stats are locked behind a really terrible app. At least there isn&#x

The whole idea behind ECH is one IP hosts tons of sites (eg. CDN) so you have no idea which one it is. Also reverse lookup has nothing to do with hosting own DNS resolver.

Ah, true. Well then, what makes GCP/AWS more money? DoD contracts or Claude resell fees? They could drop DoD though I guess I see how this will go...
117.
by progbits 7mo ago
(edit: I'm most likely wrong) You got it backwards, can't use claude if you ARE doing business with DoD. Presumably AWS/GCP don't care, its up to the end customer to comply. Not like GCP KYC asks if you work with DoD.

Agreed it's not really good signal (many sampling biases) but user count is not relevant, most money is from heavy API users. 900M users with free or cheap subscription are nothing compared to even 10k heavy API users. On the other han
