They accept Object not because they're not type safe. They accept Object because key `equals` method might return `true` for unrelated classes by design, and collections interfaces have to accommodate for that. In other words, you migh

Cyber attacks between these countries were happening on large scale since the beginning of the war. There were several huge breaches, but otherwise most high-profile companies adapted and significantly strengthened their protections. Rest a

You don't need data center for inference. Even largest models run on a single server. You need data center for training; or for serving millions of users. Evaluating the model is neither of those.

If you need, you can trivially backport the code to JDK 11. All new Java features are essentially syntax sugar and trivial to rewrite with early Java code. Just ask LLM, they're really good and mundane and trivial rewrites.

Because AI supposedly provides a significant advantage over not using AI and those who would trust OpenAI might get a significant edge.

He may be hinting that solving these complex mathematical problems will boost OpenAI clients' confidence and encourage them to spend millions of dollars on solving other complex problems.

You can't blame a child for eating candies. We are children. There’s just no one to look after us.

Even in China you can find a way out and build a tunnel. And once you built a tunnel to any outside server, you can jump into another server. So three jurisdictions and your target is fourth. Imagine untangling the links. Police won't

Your implication is not horrifying. Your implication is paradise. It's already horrifying enough to live in a world, where Putin and Trump can destroy our civilization with one button. I'm not that optimistic, though. Either peopl

This mistake gets repeated over and over again, in every single GUI framework of any kind. I don't understand why does it have to be that way. Just use multi-threading. Run each library in a separate thread. Use actors approach to pass

I did simpler trick with jars (basically zip archives). Java ecosystem loves huge directories full of jars. If one would just use good compressor like 7z over that directory, it won't compress that good. So I extracted every jar into a

How is it possible? Even if you just put text to ChatGPT it'll translate it much better than that. And with actually decent harness, the translation should be quite good. Do they even save on tokens by choosing cheapest model or someth

I'm still not convinced that IPv6 is a good thing. I think that we should have doubled down on sharing IP addresses. Both for consumbers (NAT) and for servers (NAT, TLS/HTTP reverse-proxying). It just solves all problems with IP a

If you're hinting to neural networks, it's not about providing drivers for 3D graphics. For Nvidia that's CUDA and it's basically different set of libraries. Also Intel is not in this business anyway.

You don't need to write performant 3D graphics drivers for servers. Intel, AMD, Nvidia does it anyway. Apple is the only Linux-hostile company.

I'm using Intel Thinkpad. And I'm pretty sure that Intel does a good amount of work upstreaming Intel support in Linux. So I'm not sure that using Linux in general means having some unpaid volunteer do it for you. In fact I b

I think that the fact that AI has a very recognizable singular style is a problem. And this problem will be solved, sooner or later. It probably isn't a very important problem, because I feel that it should be relatively easy to solve

You can actually do that today. In fact I did that for some time, because I didn't want to configure e-mail client. The only hard thing is HTML. Average HTML e-mail is almost impossible to read and friction to extract it to a file to o

You can't do that with HTTP/2 (but thankfully every server still talks HTTP/1). You also can't do that with TLS (and a lot of servers won't talk HTTP other than redirects). openssl s_client instead of telnet might a

100% agree with you. You can actually treat kubernetes as a glorified docker compose engine. Deploy pods, deploy nginx instead of ingress controller, deploy certbot cronjob instead of cert-manager, and believe it or not, it'll work! On

1. You can't force third-party software to do that. There are programs with hardcored ports. There are programs which require XML modifications and container rebuilds to change port number. If your platform does not support launching o

Docker swarm is that simple solution you're looking for. But people don't need simple solutions. They want scalable solutions and Kubernetes fits this niche perfectly. You can deploy it on single server today and scale to 100 serv

As I'm currently exploring kernel build things, the alternative to `make tinyconfig` is `make allnoconfig` which is supposedly will not disable expert options and might be a little bit safer starting point.
