It's not that simple. Rules do not necessarily reduce freedom, they can in fact even provide more freedom on the longer term, when the system finds a new balance. The difficulty of course is to find the proper rules and evaluate these

You are above the laws if you have the money. Wonderful teaching for your kids. The world knows where that is leading.

The amount of downvoted posts here is quite indicative.

And I think we don't care.

Seeing your comment, the base seems more corrupted than the elite. The corruption they suffer is to see everyone as being corrupted. Think about it: how you would implement such directive and make it implementable... Now you see the problem

Why would seeing sexual imagery make you less rational? That doesn't make sense. The study you mention say the people were already in an arousal state (that they had to induce themselves). It's very different from seeing images th

Yeah. The comments saying it's AI-pilled comments are more annoying and less informative than the comments themselves.

You don't need an online account to back up your encryption key. All you need is your password. And a well-designed disk encryption tool.

Nice writeup. This is this kind of exercise and information that really help you understand better how things work.

No, it's Mythos that has access to Microsoft now :-)

Anthropic, can you please stop the FUD? Release your best model, let the world adapt and evolve, and let's move to the next thing.

Great! More pressure on fabs, price of standard GPU will again rise. Guess I need to postpone my gamer PC renewal to end 2030.

For his defense, the business is really 1M$ and he really started in his dorm room. So clickbaity but factually true, unlike many other clickbaity stories out there.

Funniest comment in this thread :-D

Nice writeup. A practical example of a project, what was found, how it was found, the quality of the findings, reproducible.

Yes, it's more an infinite cylinder.

No. All watermarks are cures that are worse than the diseases they are trying to prevent (and never achieved to even cure anything). Watermark is a blatant violation of legitimate privacy expectations, while not preventing anything because

According to "experts", you have to suffer to make good art. She used a tool that reduced that suffering phase, so she's "garbage" now. I don't know about AI, but I think the main problem nowadays is that a gro

The best recommendation is "Git Internals" ( https://github.com/pluralsight/git-internals-pdf ). It teaches you how git works from the internal, and give you absolute confidence and understanding on how the too

Yeah, this is insane. Show a complete lack of understanding on how the tool works. Using rsync on git is like hammering a nail with a hammer, but then use a 10 pound stone to hammer the hammer.

Tried both right now. Tried against a 84K loc C project. ck took at least 5 minutes to index, but replies are indeed fast. semble indexing (if any) took no noticeable time (except for the first download of HF model, which took a couple seco

I think you got it reverse. Gaming and such are dedicated services. Fine if people agree to pay premium to have the required platform / console / etc. General services such as communications / banking must be free, and must n

Not exactly. Security through obscurity in cryptosystems would mean defining your own crypto algorithm (or using a secretly-defined one, secret in the sense that it is unknown to the adversaries) to protect your system. It is NOT bad in its

What a poor explanation. With the same reasoning, human being are only a bunch of atoms, and the only reason they don't collide with other humans is because of the atomic force. When your abstraction level is too low, it doesn't e

it would be bad for Microsoft if that would use Calc on LibreOffice.

Yeah, exactly. Your wall should be made of a small number bricks you bet your life on. All the rest goes inside.

Yeah, the main problem is that most companies / people don't give a f*ck about security because it is not a key feature. It's only a marketing stamp. You want it good enough to sell the products, but you don't want to sp

One defender, many attackers, I don't see how the economy of scale can be positive for the defender. Assuming your code is inaccessible isn't good for security. All security reviews are done assuming code source is available. If y

Then the question: what is cheaper, secure a code base written by humans, or secure a code base vibe coded with an army of agents?
