It doesn't apply to HTTP/3 because the receiver has to extend the stream concurrency maximum before the sender can open a new stream. This attack works because the sender doesn't have to wait for that after sending a reset i

Opportunity for what? This isn't a sales environment, and I'm not sure what the benefit is of attracting users who don't know the tools they use. What is the opportunity cost of losing a user who doesn't understand the

Those contracts are reliable in that the customer is extremely unlikely to move to a different product line. Especially when you've got a customer locked in, refresh timescales are pretty predictable. HPC contracts are generally borne

Microsoft tried to license it, failed, and wound up licensing DoubleSpace instead. As usual, the utility being built into MS-DOS 6 pretty much destroyed competition in that space. Stacker's ace in the hole was their coprocessor card,

It's good marketing to use psychiatric terminology here, since it feeds into the handwaving about AGI. It's vital to the sales model of this field that people with purchasing authority be gaslit into believing that there is a nas

This is all completely irrelevant. No office suite user gives a shit what the Library of Congress thinks about database formats, because spreadsheets are not databases, no matter how often you personally conflate the two. Furthermore, the

In situations where people are opening a CSV file in an office-suite spreadsheet app, they probably didn't generate the data themselves. Lecturing them about how their spreadsheet should have been a database isn't likely to help,

An LLM trained on public-domain or liberal-license material would be a great counterexample ... if anyone built it. The popular models in wide use do disclose what they train on (sometimes under NDA) and they all contained copyrighted work

I interpreted it as the world's largest ai supercomputer, which may not be the fastest, and will be located in Europe. Size and performance are two different metrics, especially if you're using lower density processing.
