This is what Word is to most people. They just use the default styles, or their company's template. No special formatting, styling etc. Also if you do want to add a table or a figu…

To be honest I don't really read insults either in this e-mail or in the thread you linked. If I'm seeing it right, there's only one comment by the guy in that thread, right? That …

They answer the second question quite clearly in my opinion: It requires only brief one-time physical access, which is realistic in cloud environments, considering, for instance: *…

You're twisting their words. For the second question, they clearly answer yes. It depends on the threat model you have in mind. If you are a nation state that is hosting data in a …

It's a bit more fundamental in my opinion. Cryptographic techniques are supported by strong mathematics; while I believe hardware-based techniques will always be vulnerable against…

You must be joking. When I try to log in on Outlook I get redirected to 'microsoftonline.com' (suspicious), when I log in on Wikipedia it sends me to something called 'wikimedia.or…

When notpushkin said "the spec is still at XSLT 1.0", I think "the spec" is referring to the WHATWG HTML Living Standard spec, which only refers to XSLT 1.0. (It wouldn't make sens…

Do you think an AI could come up with novel answers that a human wouldn't be able to come up with? I think humans could not just come up with answers to these questions, but some p…

To be frank, if you die, isn't it much more likely your friends and family will just stop using your homelab setup? They'll switch back from Jellyfin to Netflix, replace the smart …

To give a concrete example, matrix multiplication is not commutative in general (AB ≠ BA), but e.g. multiplication with the identity matrix is (AI = IA). So AIB = ABI ≠ BAI. Or app…

This is just an analogy used by the article to explain the Fiat-Shamir transform.

But look at the questions: "Does my use of AI lead me to neglect my personal hygiene, nutritional needs, or physical health?" (compare with: "Does my eating of vegetables lead me t…

I would say all questions except maybe the first one, are about impact on your personal life: "late into the night", "whenever I have a free moment", "personal hygiene", "personal …

This is what I was going to post. It helped me a lot by first giving a very intuitive understanding of the concept of ZKPs using the Where's Waldo/puffin-among-the-penguins example…

Then you do that part yourself. You let AI automate the 20/50/80% (*) of work it can, and you now only need to do the remainder manually. (*) which one of these it is depends on yo…

Indeed, Dieselgate is 10 years ago. If they would've suffered badly from it, we would've seen that by now. Sure, they've had to pay fines and compensations, but that seems to have …

I don't understand why it's even a question that Meta trained their LLM on copyrighted material. They say so in their paper! Quoting from their LLaMMa paper [Touvron et al., 2023]:…
