You are asserting that security has to be hand-crafted. That is a very strong claim, if you think about it. Is it not possible to have secure software components that only work when assembled in secure ways? Why not? Conversely, what secur

Amazon and Koch Industries are are probably the significant companies that come closest to this level of description and prescription. You'd need something like probabilistic programming language to model discretion. You'd want so

It might be a mistake to think in terms of production costs. The real "cost" of software is reliance: what risk do your API clients or customers take in relying on you? This is just as true for free-as-in-beer software as for Saa

This seems necessary and desirable, but pretty much a government function. I can't see how simple good-faith cooperation prevents abuse. Possible abuses: (1) Use the information to actually interfere or collide with satellites (2) Use

The key finding is that "compression" of doc pointers works. It's barely readable to humans, but directly and efficiently relevant to LLM's (direct reference -> referent, without language verbiage). This suggests some

It's nice, and a lot of work, to gather this from the city. Many thanks! But because it's just a stream, the only interaction is to browse, which can be mind-numbing. It would be interesting to sort by image vector, to find tags

The two phenomena in the article are incorruptibility and responsiveness after apparent death. Granting the evidence is weak, is it possible? Death for medical purposes is really the boundary when function is not at all expected to return.

I believe Apple is investing in C/C++ interop so much because they realize they'll likely keep their existing low-level system+embedded code rather than port it to Swift. That's good for people who want to do the same. A sw

You're asking what's a defensible value-add, but without really framing current business conditions or issues. Time - opportunity - matters a lot, perhaps more than anything. And to face that, one needs to ask better questions (e
