Starting a pricewar with NVidia is not in their interest.

They are both limited by production capacity at the moment because we need more "open" foundaries which needs more machines from ASML. Both are in the works, but it takes time.

As long as they sell all their inventory anyway you won't see a price drop, let alone a price war.

I'm more surprised AMD is not playing in the AI field more. Although it seems the long term strategy for Google, Microsoft and Amazon is to supply their clouds with their own ARM based hardware rather than buying from Nvidia. But AMD could enter that market with a high volume low margin approach as well.

Still, as long as TSCM and ASML can't scale up production further everybody will be waiting anyway. That's where the bottleneck is, thats whats keeping prices high.

I don't know about other platforms... but on Gentoo, distcc is restricted to only running a small list of programs (ie gcc). That means you can't just send random commands to the distcc host from your "slow machines".

Granted, if your distcc host gets compromised, the compiled output shouldn't be trusted until the server can be reprovisioned.

"You can just" and "Can't you just" phrases should trigger you to think twice.

The phrases show poor empathy on your part: It's a hassle to go to the RMV and get another plate, it's a hassle to update any place where your plate needs to be registered, it costs money...
The objects that are manipulatable by comptime are ordinary program objects and types -- not ASTs. That means that while it's true you can get compile-time errors in similar situations to macros, the errors themselves are like ordinary runtime errors in an untyped language -- while occurring at compile-time, they look like runtime error in Python or JS -- rather than errors due to some "second-order" manipulation of symbols like templates or macros, and so are easier to diagnose (you get a regular stack trace for one).

There is also another interesting difference, albeit a theoretical one. Zig's comptime is what's known in formal languages to be referentially transparent (it basically means that you cannot distinguish between two otherwise identical objects that differ only in their reference name) while macros are not. Because referential transparency is strictly less expressive than "opacity" (but it's also simpler!), it's surprising that so many practical use cases for macros can be addressed with the less powerful (but simpler and much easier to debug) comptime. That's quite a discovery in language design. While other languages also have comptime-like constructs, they also have other complex features that have made it hard to see just how powerful something like comptime alone can be.

> while leveraging a mixture of golang for userspace and eBPF for kernelspace

This severely limits your market share. Most on-Prem customers are still using pre 5.0 Linux kernels, and most cloud first customers are already using Lacework, Aqua, Orca, or Wiz for cloud based asset inventory, monitoring, and even enforcement. Plus SentinelOne and other existing security companies are entering the market (not necessarily a bad thing, but would be difficult to compete without a compelling vision and GTM).

In my experience, the asset inventory problem is mostly seen in large Hybrid environments where asset ownership is split across multiple teams (a CMDB team, cloud platform team, application team, security team, networking team). This along with an SBOM story is very hot right now, but you will need to find a way to differentiate yourself from the list of competitors above, along with the hesitancy to manage yet another agent.

The bigger issue is that while this does sound like a cool feature, it would be a massive lift to make it defensible against companies with an existing Rolodex and also to manage the sales motion.

Also, customers hate installing and managing agents.
Truly successful CEOs make decisions where there is no definitive data and end up being right. It's not clear to me AI's would be good at that. Most CEO's have a chief of staff, that's probably something AI could replace.
as a long time game dev, I actively don't want operator overloading. That's some spooky action at a distance nonsense. I'm not sure I have seen a codebase that involved operator overloading, either, and I've worked in or near a good quantity of well-known titles.
Oh there's none of that. You only see the subreddits you visit or any conglomeration thereof, such as multireddits or simply the frontpage.

The point is that industry knew that there were dangers associated with the use of PFAS, not that it was toxic but still used safely.

3M's website lists their uses of PFAS, including cookware.

We probably would be upset if they coated paper plates with Tylenol and hid the effect that could have on people.

Yeah I won't be using Edge just to use AI.

It takes a bit of back-and-forth, just be clear about which version of tiptap it should write extensions for, the new v2 is very different from v1 and since the cutoff is 2021, it's missing a bit of information. But in general, it knows the public api very well, so markers and dom works great!
That's crazy cool. Just sent a link to a youtuber I follow with a song he recently covered.

The suggestion of donating these concerns me.

IIUC these credits aren’t transferable so you’d have to set them up with access to an AWS sub account attached to your credit card. Last time I used AWS personally (it’s been a while) there was no way to limit spending in a subaccount.

Giving someone access to your account to burn through exactly $10k in credits where you are on the hook sounds… financially dangerous.

Am I missing something? Is there a way to make sure they only spend the $10k in credits and not a penny more?
those leaders come around so incredibly rarely, that movies get made about it!
I hope this isn’t a hot take, but after seeing the apparent endgame of “democracy” play out over the last 10 years or so, I’m fine with business being done using a completely contrasting system.

Great, with AI management maybe asset owners will finally get a board of directors who represent their interests and not the interests of the board themselves.

On the Catastrophic Risk of AI
Nobody's arguing for a zero-tolerance policy, that feels like a strawman. Most of the toxic products we use have very strict usage guides and/or regulations attached.

There's two issues, and you're glossing over both:

1) purposefully hiding the negative effects of your products

2) the lack of meaningful accountability for those doing 1

Not only do you need to know a product's toxicity, but also the expected dose, and exposure over time

Exactly. And it seems that people knew about those, yet chose to hide these things from the public.

The question is whether they had reason to believe it was related to exposure to C-8

No, the question is whether they had a moral obligation to research that and publicize it, given what else they knew and didn't tell. If they had shared the rest of their knowledge, maybe they could be absolved from this particular point if nobody else in society thought it worthwhile to look into. But given that they didn't, this obligation falls only on them.
Honestly the comments are a good example on how difficult it is to sell to developers and why startup ideas that target developers are dangerous to bootstrap.

Developers have high incomes, but are quite frankly, extremely cheap. And I actually mean cheap and not frugal. They will spend 40 hours/week for months to save $5/mo. There's basically no logic apart from that developers have a poor concept of time and money and are spending averse (again, cheap.)

In this case, this tool is $30/mo, or about $360 / year, what is that, 3 dinners for 2 people in a year? The tool may save the developer, let's say 3-4 hours / week and at 52 * 3 or about 156 hours of savings a year. At even 30 an hour, it's saved the developer $4,680, or at 60/hour, close to $10,000, but I can guarantee that 99% of developers will not spend $30/month to make their lives easier.

My only recommendation is try to sell this product to businesses and maybe offer them a deal based on the amount of developers they have. So sell it do a dev shop with 10 developers at $20/developer / per month. Businesses understand the time/money tradeoff and are not cheap.

Developers, my only word of advice, is seriously.. stop being so cheap and spend some money to make your lives easier.
Hear, hear! Two color plain stamped plates. Our vehicle's tags don't need to be a weird advert no one cares about. It's bad enough to get forced into paying for a reissue (remember when NY changed to yellow-and-blue and started charging for keeping the old plates?), doubly so when it's for some bureaucrat's amusement on having a "fun" plate.
I only use well known and very popular extensions. The security risk otherwise is just too big. Even those could have breaches but at least you would find out relatively quickly.
> Monarchs play a fairly unimportant rol

It may look like that, but it's not true. You know how a good system administrator doesn't seem that important because he prevents all the fires that a bad one would heroically put out? The mere presence of a monarch, not even his actions, acts in a similar fashion. They don't have to actively govern the country, but they have emergency powers that would allow them to prevent a wanna be populist dictator. And because of obvious game theory implications, these powers never have to be used — their mere existence, and everybody bring aware of their existence, is enough for deterrence.
I see several shortcomings with this design:

- High investment cost to adopt the tech.

- High manufacturing and maintenance cost for this level of integration. (especially due to the battery short lifespan)

- Energy loss during power transfer, when unloading the electricity.

A more modular design could work better imo. Make it so the vessel can load/unload standard power modules via rails/warehouse-like robots. The standard power modules could be made from smaller, standard batteries such as Tesla powerpacks or future grid battery modules so that the cost of using this vessel on top of a renewable grid becomes marginal, and hot-swapping the fully charged modules with the empty ones ensures power is not transmitted twice.

Other benefits of standard modules is that production costs for battery modules will go down, and transmission could also happen on land over trains or trucks if the economic equation works out, or for extremely remote areas with limited local power generation capabilities.

In fact a whole ecosystem of hot-swappable residential modules could be bootstrapped, making it easy to deploy a single home installation or a microgrid in a remote area, all the way to a town, city, island or nation-wide grid.
Honestly, I at least glance at the beg bounties, but they're all so formulaic and bullshit it's easy to see what's up.

While not titled as a cyber-security professional, I am a System Admin/Engineer who has worn that hat a few times when there was no one else available.

In my experience, it seems like vendor disclosures, and measures that might impact correcting vulnerable components are insufficient, and slow, if they happen at all.

The larger brands are getting pretty good about disclosing in a timely manner but you always have cost cutting happening unbenowst to you organizationally where inventory as you said isn't accounted for, and then those devices may or may not have disclosed vulnerabilities or had a fix within a reasonable time after public disclosure. Not vetted hardware but consumer, or semi-professonal brands that are much smaller.

I've run into areas where mitigations also were extremely costly because some simple circumstance was overlooked.

As an example, almost 8 years ago I was brought in to help a client who had suffered a ransomware attack where their previous IT staff were non-responsive and they were desperate.

They had Mcafee's DLP deployed organization wide, and the local DLP server that generated the unlock codes was among several other assets that had been encrypted but not documented or inventoried (so that didn't have a backup). The software product true to their word prevented even authorized system administrators from being able to make any mitigative changes without that unlock code which was not possible, their support for resolution was ineffective and useless. Even in safe mode, everything was locked down, and after exhausting all other options even accessing the system physically from a Linux live disk failed, the HDD would hang after trying to access certain parts of the disk (at an extremely low level). We were never able to figure out exactly what caused the hangs, but it happened regularly for long-running processes and we verified SMART passed. We had a guess that they were doing something funky with NTFS where separate files under a certain size get conglomerated into the same sector block which wasn't supported by Linux at the time, but we were never able to confirm definitively.

What could have been a few hour turnaround ended up turning into a week of downtime (where everyone was shut down, 10 days). Fortunately it was during the holidays which was their slowest time when they normally shut down for a week but it could have been much worse.

After exhausting options, we ended up having migrate data, wipe and reimage with almost a completely new infrastructure. We corrected a number of additional issues (misconfigurations) we found during the process but there was a good portion of time where we were just spinning our wheels with the vendor who was useless.

We went to contingency and stood up new infrastructure after we hit a certain threshold on man hours trying to work with them without any progress.

The big cloud providers attempt to detect and stop crypto mining. I'm not sure if there are ways around it, but if so, they probably involve mining incredibly inefficiently.

A decent but a little bit too alarmist essay in my opinion. A few reservations also, starting with:

"Our actions, our words, even our thoughts, are being monitored, recorded, and analyzed. The sanctity of our homes, once our refuge from the world, is under threat."

"It’s not just mere data; rather, it’s a master key to the sealed vaults of our thoughts and experiences."

The mind-reading stuff is still a fantasy and will be so also in the future. Then:

"An individual’s freedom of speech hinges significantly on their ability to communicate privately without fear of reprisal."

True enough in principle, but I'd reckon that in the current infodemic it is more about who is given a voice (or a megaphone). Furthermore:

"Enterprises are no longer solely engaged in the commerce of goods or services; they are also playing a part in a grand, global data accumulation endeavour, where consumer data assumes colossal worth."

Once again true enough, but then again, most of data is garbage, useless beyond the immediate moment of pushing an ad or two. Finally:

"This isn’t a criticism aimed at those agencies responsible for our national security."

I am not sure whether their job either is made easier or worse by the vast amounts of garbage.
So, it costs ~3.5 years of Photoshop.
It is also the view of many working journalists, or at least the ones I know.

And it's not like some CEO decided "hey, let's pivot to churning out low-quality clickbait because I really like that stuff." They were forced to by the shift of ad budgets from print to more targeted advertising and the consolidation of news readership into a small number of well-known publications. Though I do agree that it's equally unfair to blame journalists for this.
Mine are not super organised (folders in Notability), but to answer your question:

- Meeting notes

- Daily journal with related doodles

- Project ideas and UI sketches

- Research notes for new articles

Meeting notes are the most valuable, because I wouldn't remember what we talked about a day later.

Notes are a good way to dump an idea and revisit it later, because there's always a million things going on in my life and I can't keep it all in RAM.

Where there is the problem. Maryland sub-contracted out the site, probably stopped paying for it or the "contractor" closed done. Someone grabbed it.

Well I hope Maryland is enjoying what may be mo more than 10 cents per year per plate they are saved in taxing people. And as a bonus, they also are now giving out free advertising.

Next step, force people to replace the plates and maybe charge them a fee for doing that.
As mentioned in the article, single-atom imaging has actually been routine for years.
