Adobe’s ereaders had a disclaimer that their books cannot be read aloud. There’s clearly precedent that this sort of transformation was disallowed by publishers at the time. Intere…

To be fair Nick Fuentes praised him on his perfect Nazi salute

In good faith, what is your burden of proof that would change your mind?

That seems absolutely crazy to do. One could argue that the marginal cost to work for using a work laptop is zero and the work is still yours (still beyond the risk I’m willing to …

But Apple has always made their image quality not cost effectiveness. Pivoting here too drastically could sacrifice their image and backfire

But given the hoopla about how a driver’s license isn’t valid in the SAVE act because it doesn’t prove you’re a US citizen, how is drivers license verification going to satisfy the…

I know agents are out of scope of this RFC but I love that this could easily be extended to make the JS EventSource to work on streaming AI queries. Due to the need of bodies in re…

I think it can at least be said they are amoral not immoral. It’s a very low bar, but still

In honor of The Old New Thing I call these “Vogon vulnerabilities”: I have a marvelous exploit in mind that pwns anyone I have root access to

But it should be their job to protect against MitM in their threat model. There is no rational reason to exclude them from the bug bounty. Doing so only leaves MitM attacks like th…

I’m not diagnosed face blind but I’m hoooooorble with names. It’s weird because I’ve been tested and score in the 98th percentile for memory generally. I hung out with a large grou…

So geo-gate it?

That used to be my thing: wherever our ops manager declared something was impossible, I’d put my mind to proving her wrong. Even though we both knew she might declare something imp…

I think they’re talking about Apple fans, not laptop fans

Tbf, accepting a pardon is legally admitting guilt per SCOTUS and disgorgement would allow the funds to be sized

If the weak link is GPS, could they not accept an override for the time and spherical coordinates to connect?

No. Absolutely not. The opposite in fact. Your bash script is deterministic. You can send it to 20 AIs or have someone fluent read it. Then you can be confident it’s safe. An LLM w…

There was a coffee shop ages ago in SF that would every few hours play a cacophony (e.g. multiple songs at once). I assume it was to drive away people camping on their laptops to r…

Google had achieved carbon neutrality and committed to wiping out their carbon legacy until AI.

As a user I suffer from not being able to freely use or derive my own work from Microsoft’s

Nice. I didn’t know I can now replace my “assertExhaustive” function. Previously you could define a function that accepted never and throws. It tells the compiler that you expect t…

Is this meant to be a defense of the DNS protocol? I’ve never assumed the meme was that the DNS protocol is flawed, but that these changes are particularly sensitive/dangerous. At …

Mongo also has a good query language and a mongo DB can be seen as an array of documents

It sounds like you’re not at the scale where cloud storage is obviously useful. By the time you definitely need S3/GCS you have problems making sure files are accessible everywhere…
