Maybe less "Brave New World" and more "Dune". This feels like trying to create mentats.

The trouble with IPv6 pitch was that there are a lot of additional features beyond "more address space". However, other solutions and workarounds were developed so that those features failed to become a selling point. You could ge

Two possibilities: 1. Fear that a major vulnerability is found in a commonly used software package that puts multiple major banks and e-commerce sites at risk 2. Fear that major vulnerabilities are found in multiple, widely used software pa

I've used it. It's the mail user agent for those with large inboxes that also have bad memory. The search features are very powerful. Or you can set up rules as complex as you want to tag/sort/move mail.

Like any war, the weapons that appear the most effective are desired by every other country. The are seen as "battle tested" and at least have some track record of working. Likewise the combatants. When this war is over there will

Not really. There was a huge interest in biomedical research in 2021. Now that interest has been taken over by AI and defense technology.

The Netherlands punches above its weight in cybersecurity expertise. They are likely helping others in Europe including Ukraine. This seems like an obvious response from Russia to try and get inside their operations.

Not currently, but I notice that when there is a site breach I get notified about, I get an uptick of new spam/fraud texts/calls shortly after for a few weeks. Could be that it's just your turn for the spam.

The panic is hitting the Mid-Atlantic hard. People who were around for the major snowstorms 10 and 16 years ago (when some people were snowed in for days) are rushing to stock up. Store shelves are looking more like March 2020 COVID days.

I doubt that the .net TLD pulled the registration on purpose. WHOIS claims it was registered yesterday. Unless the TLD had some sort of hickup and reverted back to a version before it was registered. Or something on the registrar end that m

Found this wording amusing: "...senior manager at a Virginia-based government contractor..." Reminds me of the meme "You know how little that narrows it down?"

May be too late. First, several states allowed casinos because of increased tax revenue. Now the industry has gotten big and the model seems to be (as I saw from some random guy on X): "Let's grind up people's souls and see i

If you can afford to splurge a little. I found that the O'Reilly Online site is pretty good with eBooks and video tutorials on programming in several different languages. Some courses will walk you through the tools you need to install

I agree that CS is still relevant now as long as your end goal isn't just software development. There is much more to computer science that just programming, and even there AI is not in a position to fully take over.

Might be negative caching going on at the sender side. If they can't get a response, they set a TTL on the lack of a response - so future queries don't time out but instead immediately return NXDOMAIN. If you immediately tried aft

Most people will see this as unfair and it will distort economic measurement by doing alway with price signals. I would think the blowback will be about the abuse that can (likely will) happen. "I see based on your social media posts y

There were stories like that about the old Eliza program. All it did was reframe what was typed into a question but that was enough to get some people to talk about their feelings and, in some cases, work through issues. So I can see an LLM
