Ok, but where exactly is that when the FBI is pulling Bitcoin private keys out of files accidentally synchronized to iCloud Files? These are hard problems.

Yes, but that's not what "Total erasure of data" means. The project's goals are hard and noble. It would be better to under-promise and over-deliver than to make everyone question their claims. Maybe I'm just a grum

Total erasure of data. This is disappointing. What's been read can never be un-read; to say otherwise is deceptive.

There are a few problems with OOP. The one that bothers me the most is that there is immediately boilerplate complexity. How is this bag of data addressed? What does it behave like? How is each piece of it read and written? Now you need col

A reasonable quantization (Q4_K_M) is 4GB on disk and uses 6.5 GB of RAM. It will run at reasonable speed on an iPhone 15 Pro today. Using a smaller model or a more efficient quantization on a phone two years from now (aka whatever's i

The metadata is all you need: find a few messages in an interesting e2e chat, ask Apple which accounts received push notifications at those specific times, find intersection.

They're probably fusing both lenses with the Lidar and some other tricks to reliably compute a dense surface. That would explain their suggestion not to move the camera very much, as that would cause a large portion of the mesh to be r

Dual licensing becomes very difficult once there is more than one person writing code, and that includes submitting bug fixes. Once this happens you need to track down every contributor and have them sign licensing terms. It's long, di

Unfortunately you've fallen victim to years of anti-GPL propaganda and FUD. A 10-liner GPL Python script is not going to "infect" an org with 20 million lines of closed source code. Suggesting that it's possible, ev

What you are describing must have been written by someone who does not believe in software freedoms. That seems to be a common sentiment, that preferring non-GPL projects is about exploitation, and I don’t think it makes any sense.

As a developer my problem with the GPL is that it's less free than other licenses. It's an interesting legal hack, but it can only succeed in its goals by boiling the ocean. I just want to write things, and sometimes making mone
