The author here is shoehorning "AI" into the headline to boost views. Quite misleading. "AI" in this case was used to generate a 3D model of a protein. Literally, something you can grab from Wikipedia — https:/&#x2

Besides space and ~~efficient killing/murdering~~ military industries, where would this “superalloy-like” strength be useful in? Nuclear plants? Maybe useful in supercomputing/quantum computing?

It would be a very expensive bicycle frame. That is for 100% certain ;)

yea, to be honest guy deserves much more than 3 yrs. There are ways to kill a corporation without the need to use the same playbook as corporations (using others as pawns to get a point across).

I would normally agree but digging into the details of this incident: > Note that this allegedly vengeful former employee also risked public health and safety. By editing the menus to suggest that certain items were safe for people with

Blame corporate greed for this never ending cycle of (human/psychological/and physical) exploitation in the name of pRoFiT. A companion presentation to the OP is "Beware, fellow plutocrats, the pitchforks are coming" by

I don’t think my problem has ever been with setting up a local environment. Single cluster deployments are very easy. My problem is that these services we manage in production are deployed across multiple regions (or k8s clusters). Debuggin

I wish I could spare time like this to work passion projects. Forget practicality. Forget "go to market" strategy. Forget target fit. Just build and learn.

Thiel is such a disgusting person. People like him, greedy fucking capitalists, are the reason the world is slowly burning down. All of this so he and his other billionaire friends can turn society into “network states” (privatized entities

Given how gutted the regulatory agencies are today, I wouldn’t be surprised if we see surge in fraudulent claims of “Made in USA” items that actually trace manufacturing to another country. Maybe “Made in USA, China”

It’s a good memoir and like the author of this review. I too only picked it up because of Mark/Meta’s attempt to suppress the promotion of it. Listened to a couple of chapters on an audiobook service before picking up physical copy and

You can copyright just about anything as long as you have the _money_ T-Mobile trademarked a very specific pink, "Magenta" There’s even a company that holds trademarks on a set of colors, Pantone. Courts have yet to reverse or rev

Cool project. Definitely starring. But I’m sticking with nix to manage across systems. Yes a steep learning curve but once you have it set up then it’s easy to sync across devices.

This comment is also unsubstantiated stating "he wasn’t doing anything that other CEOs weren’t doing". Where’s the proof? If this is true, then ask yourself. Why the fuck isn’t the government [in the 2000s] doing their job? Why ar

geoguessr clones/copies are so hot rn. Cool idea, m8. I ended up just looking at clothing and fashion choices. Although black and white photos do tend to represent historical era (ie, holocaust, ww2)

The "case study" [1] in the author’s post is unsubstantiated. The author of the "case study" (it’s a short e-mail depicting a conviction of a C-level executive) even tries to parallel it with Aaron Schwartz conviction wh

Surprising that IBM still generates _new_ sales and has a dedicated sales workforce. Must be hard to generate new sales for their deadass mainframe tech.

Zoom, a multibillion dollar corporation, uses the shit tier of all companies, _GoDaddy_, for their registrar? What a blunder.

I don’t see any issue here. I already automate with ACME so rotating certificates on an earlier basis is okay. This should be like breathing for app and service developers and infrastructure teams. Side note: I wonder how much pressure this

As I suspected in other thread, the gutting of the CVE program will lead to a fractured db of CVEs. Wonder how many more will pop up out of the wood works.

Just like the Panama Papers? Did anything even happen after the Mossack Fonseca law firm was hacked? All I remember was a few people stepping down from govt positions, some rich folks get caught in the xfire (some football player used them)

Some companies are already clueless when it comes to CVE management. Probably won’t see the effects immediately but give it a few more years for new generation of vulns to be created/found and we will be back to early 2000s level secur
