Maybe people are feeling confident to put their masks off with the stuff that’s happening in the US?

This comment is needlessly hostile and adds no value to the conversation.

I’m surprised that you haven’t noticed this yourself, this is an incredibly common issue. I always thought that it was perhaps referencing something that’s in its hidden thinking tokens, but the grandparent’s explanation could also very wel

This is a very common practice called retargeting / behavioral targeting and has existed for about 2 decades at this point. Facebook is hardly the only company that does this. Modern browsers are more strict towards third party cookies

It baffles me how shortsighted the policymaking here is. Like, what did they expect to happen?

This was exactly what I meant yes.

That has a very different meaning than literal stealing.

Didn’t they not just switch employers but actually handed over a lot of proprietary documents from Apple?

Why is it more relevant today?

As someone who had their first internet connection through NLnet in the 90s (later UUnet I think?), I’m so pleasantly surprised the impact that the organization has for open source projects globally.

That project in itself looks very interesting. How are people using it, any examples of how people get this into an actual report / CI test / benchmark / whatever ?

> Tighter integration than UK Sounds like it could be a solution for the UK as well, which begs the question: why wasn’t a similar proposal worked out with the uk?

Yeah but that doesn’t work when you’re using C++ to implement another language where people can do anything they want, including circular references.

Perhaps the external enemy being able to do these things is, in fact, their own failure in a way.

I’ve just asked a friend of mine who lives in PNG and yeah, this definitely happened. Nowadays it doesn’t happen anymore except potentially in some insanely remote areas. Supposedly the Japanese during WW2 also resorted to cannibalism.

Rewrites require a lot of effort, significantly more than just adding comments. It’s a pragmatic tool until you actually have the time to do the rewrite.

This was already known when Apple Intelligence was first announced years ago so nothing surprising there.

Seems like this is a draft / filler that was supposed to be updated. At least it’s not AI.
20.
by stingraycharles 12d ago
Yeah as long as the audience is there, people will keep posting on Twitter.

But that doesn’t matter a lot when some nation state is using their own AI to hack US assets, right? How, exactly, would a lockdown or slowdown prevent that? If history has shown one thing it’s that China often capitalizes very well on thes

Eh, SREs are generally considered harder to get into with more responsibility than regular development roles, unless I misunderstood what you meant with “reliability”.

That article seems to arrive to the same conclusion as I did (“we need IP KVM”) without offering any solid choices? Which solutions perform well?
24.
by stingraycharles 13d ago
What’s a decent quality IP KVM solution that’s not too expensive? We’re looking to put a dozen of mac minis in a collocation, and currently investigating solutions for remote access.
25.
by stingraycharles 13d ago
What KVM were you thinking of, the virtualization?
26.
by stingraycharles 14d ago
Yeah, the usual approach here is to offer a free VPN service, and then piggyback traffic over the user’s internet provider. Much, much more scalable and cheaper than offering to put GPUs at a user’s home.
27.
by stingraycharles 15d ago
Yes but “Amazon-scale infra” as the grandparent mentions should absolutely include AWS, and Shopify is nowhere near that size.
28.
by stingraycharles 15d ago
Yeah I don’t think Anthropic is particularly interested in tracking individuals in the same way that companies like Facebook and Google are.
29.
by stingraycharles 15d ago
I think Amazon is very much on another level in terms of scale. Not trying to be negative about Shopify — they have a very large system to maintain - but Amazon is just on another level.

I don’t think that AI would have made this confusion (it’s much less likely to overlook things like these), and I’m also not of the opinion that these comments confuse the two companies, it’s rather than Spotify is used by the grandparent a
