That’s fair, and I appreciate the more constructively critical feedback! Also worth noting that I’m solidly on the platform service side, and the article here is largely focused on…

Even with your rephrasing you’re looking for an answer in absolutes which is generally impossible, but unpacking your line of questioning, what it really amounts to is how “in the …

Still in my bubble! I am not involved in the human review or automated analysis portions of the safety pipeline for CSAM/TVEC harms, but my team is responsible for the data handlin…

I’m one of the people directly responsible for ensuring that those terms are properly enforced. Presently I’m arguably the person for Copilot data specifically. Current talk of the…

Nobody can say that with absolute certainty, so obviously not. And since you presumably knew that already (as it is basic infosec) then yes it is spicy, or simply antagonistic.

Prove which part? Prove that I work at GitHub? Username + LinkedIn can show (not prove) that easily. Prove that we have an entitlements system which regulates and audits access? I …

Access meaning read, modify, delete, etc. Pretty standard definition, unless you know of a different meaning of access I’m not privy to. Microsoft can certainly request that we per…

GitHub Copilot engineer here working on identity, safety, and privacy - no, even Microsoft doesn’t have access to all GitHub repos. As years have passed since the acquisition “comp…

Without robust and easily scaled infrastructure in place ahead of time, an organic DDOS is one of the most difficult situations to mitigate. Not much can be done in terms of traffi…

Wow, I was at Apple back in the 2018 timeframe when Peter was first building this. He was hoping to make it open sourced even back then, 6ish years ago. Great to see that it finall…

There’s a reason that this is called “hacker news” and not “just use the industry standard for the last 3 decades news”. Won’t downvote you for giving pragmatic advice, but I appre…

If anyone else is as frustrated as I was with the article mentioning “the DAW” 73 times without defining once what the actual acronym stands for, it’s “Digital Audio Workstation”.

On the one hand, I've seen people (including myself) try to hack job-queue like semantics onto Kafka many a time, and it always hits issues once redelivery or backoff comes up. So …

Would definitely recommend Bronstein et. al's work on geometric deep learning! https://geometricdeeplearning.com That's effectively the right hand side of the bridge that we're bui…

Biggest drawback is that since the structure is all discrete, it is inherently weak at modeling statistical distributions. For example, it'll likely never best a neural network at …

Heavily influenced by Wolfram's work on metamathematics and the physics project, in so far as using a rewrite system to uncover an emergent topology; we're just using it to uncover…

You may be interested in what we’re working on at Symbolica AI. We’re using formal logic in the form of abstract rewrite systems over a causal graph to perform geometric deep learn…

Sorry, that was phrased poorly; was in reference to the parent comment’s “For ScyllaDB you need to install Java, Python and several ScyllaDB related packages”. Just meant to say it…

The server implementation is, but administering it still requires the Java based Cassandra tooling like nodetool and cqlsh
