Consider what happens if neither player wants to go first. P1 passes. P2 passes. Now p1 has to play or the game is drawn. If the game is played with win3 draw1 lose0 rules, then p1…

Just elaborating on this. One way of looking at it is that we turn the attacked program into an interpreter thus bypassing the requirement for executability. It turns out that a lo…

Agreed

If we tried to get these thing 100% right we'd not have time for anything else. Punting is pragmatic.

People with clearance have to undergo regular lie detectors. Wouldn't be surprised if a loyalty chip is the next step on that path. I'm not convinced a very dark future is preventa…

Kinda and kinda not. They have done well so far but they could conceivably be beat by a dedicated chip. They need make sure they keep up with the research so they build what the co…

Sometimes it really is different. And sometimes it isn't.

There is a subtle false dilemma there. That we have to believe one way or the other. A better policy would be to assign some degree of belief to both possibilities.

This is how you get stuck in a local optimum. Communicate that everything worked in a better way.

Hypothetically they could require developers to show up in person to their genius bar with government ID. There you would sign a legal agreement. If you are found to have breached …

I think something is lost when doing this. I'd bet the researcher who first builds a model and then reaches for ml will outperform the researcher who goes straight for ml. Building…

No. Per wiki. Deepfake (a portmanteau of "deep learning" and "fake"[1]) is a technique for human image synthesis based on artificial intelligence. It is used to combine and superim…

We've been told that the antidote to deep fakes is supply chain security. It's troubling to hear that supply chain security is already broken and by fairly unsophisticated attacker…

Is misra as safe as ada? C++ for safety critical systems sounds vaguely concerning

Making 1kg of wolf requires way more than 1kg of prey. A rule of thumb I've heard is a step in food chain has only about 10% efficiency. If wolves were more prey than predator popu…

Not if we use nukes or solar to power it.

My impression is that it's easier to attack than to defend or detect. That would make the country who doesn't attack a sucker. So treating it as an act of war isn't viable.

You can deduce immediately that expensing is cheaper than the time it would take to investigate thoroughly

They'll literally die soon anyway

Hence why I said encrypted. The impulse to protect people from themselves is a dangerous one. In the article itself we see that in practice it is used to push inescapable spyware. …

An ideal platform would use a foss compatible framework. It would allow the user to configure which server to use to push notifications(one server for all apps, since that is neede…

I get goosebumps by ideas. Reading this thread gave me goosebumps - although I'll admit I consciously focused on helping it along.

I have found myself to feel much more energetic and happy when I rein in my night owl tendencies.
