True, though some old processors would be able to implement pretty impressive tricks. A Z80 with an 8 bit latch can bank switch 8MB of SRAM with 32KB chunks.

Ipv6 is cheap though. If I want to get past your IP or per Network limit, options abound.

May explain the ipv6 resistance. Hard to do effective per-ip rate-limiting with v6.

Is Google much better? I don't see, for example, the care that used to go into the quality of organic search results. They seem fine with the output of the current hodge-podge of the original algorithm results plus massaging by many d

Yes, there's subdirs with language bindings for many non-C langs, an examples folder with example C code, win32 specific C code, test code, etc. More reasons it's an odd comparison.

His also omits CRC, which is part of the 25k lines, no --fast/--best/etc, missing some output formats, and so on. I'm sure the 25k includes a lot of bloat, but the comparison is odd. Comparing to your list would make much m

I guess. Faxing it to someone involved in why the rules are that way would be more satisfying to me.

Sounds like it's not real but... It reads like an indictment of the government employee personally, rather than the rules and constraints that employee is forced to use. Probably fair to comment on the interaction, whether the person w

Depends. Many reasons, but one is that Java has a much richer set of 3rd party libraries to do things versus rolling your own. And often (not always) third party libraries that have been extensively optimized, real world proven, etc. Then

So it doesn't take any action to work around other bot protections? Feels like that would be on the list of features an AI company wanting to scrape would ask for.

That's too funny. If true, really looking forward to the Cloudflare response here. I'm unsure how you would spin that in a way that didn't seem self-serving.

Most of the problem is the "only been a week" part, likely. Though you're fighting an algorithm that's been patched in inconsistent places for all sorts of weights like "authority" and "quality". Tho

I don't think it's cynical to acknowledge the pattern that publicly owned companies will eventually cave to the desires of their shareholders. I understand Anthropic is not public, but I assume there's an IPO coming.

There's already buprenorphine and methadone. But, using either means some degree of responsibility, punctuality, etc. So unless you mean freely distributing it with very little process, it wouldn't change much.

My experience so far has been they are somewhat good at troubleshooting code, patterns, etc, that exist in the publicly viewable sphere of stuff it's trained on, where common error messages and pitfalls are "google-able" They

It will be interesting to watch how they decide what new data to train on if most of it is low quality.

If you asked the LLM it's possible it would tell you Java is a better fit.

That makes sense if it's in moderation. An overzealous asker can disproportionately eat up people's time. Context as to why you're asking helps set priorities.

You have to squint a little and see they mean that most consumer routers don't map inbound unsolicited packets to anything internal unless the user specifically configured it to. Which is basically a firewall.
