Have you ever tried to download videos from YouTube? I mean manually without relying on software like youtube-dl, yt-dlp or one of “these” websites. It’s much more complicated than you might think.
Actually if I must entrust my data to companies like these where reliability and competence is of utmost importance - I’d rather trust Google and Facebook (much much before Apple).

If we are talking about privacy (or rather privacy theatre) then yeah Apple, why not.

You would think. However, rationality is not a product of behavioralism.

"Remember, you complained about being cold last time?" will be met with, "I won't be cold this time." (modulo individual interchild variation). The part of their brain that says, "you know, I was cold last time," cannot be rushed to speak.

And now Putin wants the human civilization to join barbarism, with the help of populist right.

Remote controlled cars: The future of car travel? [video]
That’s not at all a given. To bootstrap mass production of electric cars requires a lot of risk, it was by no means certain it would pan out.
Now that it’s a given the rest of the car manufacturers are racing to keep up.

Same can be said with reusable rockets - why weren’t anyone else pursuing this? I think I know the answer(weak leadership from ULA etc).

> Now, if only we could get jumbogram more widely deployed. Thats older than V6 is and still struggling to break the 1500 byte MTU limit.

Really, we barely hit 1500. Look at mss for popular websites, most people drop from 1500, because 1500 has problems in enough places. Does http/3 even send 1500 byte packets ever?

One major problem is most servers (Linux all versions, I think, FreeBSD before about 2000 and after something like 2019) always send the interface mss with a syn+ack. You get meaningfully better results by sending the lesser of the interface mss and the received mss; there are enough broken systems out there that don't communicate the real MTU to end systems[1], don't send enough ICMP needs frags, try to cover it up by manipulating mss in syns, but don't manipulate mss in syn+ack. Windows and iOS (and presumably mac) do a pretty good job of detecting pmtud blackholes, but it's often disabled on servers and I can't remember where Android is these days; I know it used to ship with the option compiled in but disabled and no way to enable.

Of course, packet sizing is actually a hard problem. Larger packets are good for faster links but bad for slower links.

[1] which is hard, because I don't know how you get windows to use MTU from dhcp; it doesn't request it, so it won't use it. This is a problem too.

Apple and LVMH are two of the richest and most profitable companies in the world. So objectively they know their markets and how to profit. That’s their goal. A relative handful of people stuck with laptops or purses they can’t repair themselves makes no dent. Neither company will change their successful manufacturing, market, and sales strategies to placate a tiny number of people online floating conspiracies about how they deliberately make unfriendly products.
Fair. It’s “inspired by”, not a “clone”. Frankly, I don’t think these terms are that specific, that one couldn’t level the same point against “inspired by”.. in what sense is it inspired?
vast.ai is a popular and economical option.

A single 3090 will host 70B reasonably well, two will fit it completely in vram.

Another thing I suggest is hosting on AI horde with koboldcpp, if the UI/API works for you and the finetune is appropriate for public use. You will get priority access to your host, but fulfilling other prompts in its spare time will earn you kudos to try other models people are hosting, or to get more burst throughput.

This is crazy. Spend 2 years getting an MA just because you love the subject? Sure. Fine. NBD. But spending at least 6 years, maybe a decade, with no job at the end? That’s abuse of smart people in the same way that it’s abuse to run a casino and take money from gambling addicts. Nothing’s wrong with playing some roulette for fun (an MA), but if the house lets you give away your car keys, the house is abusive.
Cloud providers don't even support ipv6 that well let alone expecting the general public to switch over.
So I also sometimes need a "commands repeater", but that one isn't very good as it clears the screen and then runs the command to redraw... the result is that the screen will have a really obvious/slow flicker and often just be blank if the command takes any real time to run. I thereby might use that in a pinch as it is a bit faster to type (I would never imagine bothering to make a "script" for this as if you remove all of that argument boilerplate all you did was a while/clear/sleep); but, if I am going to stare at the result for more than a minute or two, I find myself pretty quickly getting frustrated with the result and adding the extra few characters to first store the result of the command into a string and then doing the clear followed by an echo of the string to the screen (after which you go back into the sleep).

The author would have liked Xerox Network Services. The Xerox plan was that devices had a 48-bit Ethernet address, and local area networks had a 32-bit network ID. Routing was by network ID until the packet hit the final LAN. No need for IP-level addressing.

Early Stanford and PARC routers could route XNS packets, but this died out some time in the 1980s.

As you noticed, ChatGPT3.5 is extremely prone to hallucination. It can still happen on ChatGPT4, but it is much less frequent, in my experience.

Here is what I got on the first try: https://chat.openai.com/share/88b0358e-c96d-4880-b939-7c62cf...

The answers seem plausible, and the words are actual Toki Pona words.

Regardless, there is a very limited dictionary to work with in Toki Pona, so communicating extremely specific ideas seems like it is always going to be problematic. The language doesn’t even have a specific word for “dog”.

Ugh. This is one of my favorite "what ifs" in the computer engineering.

Things I would change:

1. Use 72-bit addresses. 56 bits for the network address, 16 bits for the end-user networks.

2. Just use the IPv4 "local subnet" prefix logic for broadcast domains. No "on-link" nonsense.

3. Replacing ARP with neighbor discovery via multicast messages to interface addresses is... ok? But it's not necessary.

4. Remove SLAAC and stateless DHCPv6. Statefulness is helpful for network management.

5. Reify the MTU into the IP layer. No more ICMP nonsense for PMTU.

6. Rework extension headers to be actually useful. No more "next header" bullshit.
Perhaps you should watch the video a bit closer, she didn't mention killing anybody. She said we would have less environment problems if there were less people, and she is 100% correct.
People conflate "functional programming" with things like pure functions (for some definition of pure), lambdas, immutability, ADTs, etc.

Like many languages called "functional" (rust being one of them) they are not functional at all. However, they have enough uh...functional-ity that can be leveraged to create code that is sometimes easier to reason about. I don't really understand the aversion to imperative programming. There's certainly a level of cargo cult. Add to that the general difficulty of pure functional programming and now you've got a cult complete with it's own ivory tower.

It's once again a question to find the ultimate kitchen sink. C++, being one of the first kitchen sinks, doesn't surprise me as the subject of this article.

> Saying "it's a human right" just means you want it for free.

No. Wanting it to be a human right in that context means I want to live in a society where people don't have to worry about that thing. Living in a society that catches people that has some humane quality to it is a value in itself.

That being said, there are actual human rights. Rights our political representatives deemed so important, they enshrined them in law, be it in the Magna Carta, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the Geneva Convention, in national laws etc.

On the question of resources: It can and will happen, that your society will have to expend some resources to prevent humans from having their human rights violated. The collective pooling and use of resources is a hallmark of what it means to live inside a society. And that is not bad — a society as a whole benefits from doing this (the ones who so this most seem the fare quite well in every metric you can think of, e.g. the whole of Scandinavia).

Now if you ask me, you certainly have the right to work and get rich. But you don't get to do so on the achievements of a society and then pretend that it never did anything for you, so you won't need to give back all while driving on the roads that got built during times with a 90% tax bracket.

I don't know you, so don't take anything I write personal, but if this was about me, I'd rather live freely in a world where no-one around me is devastated and poor by paying my fair share, than having to spend that same money because I have to live in a gated community.

The goal of life is not to earn money, it is to lead a happy life. And a major, major part of just how happy that life is depends on your environment. This is why the most liveable cities in the world are typically not capitalist hellscapes in areas of high income disparities, but in working social democracies with good social systems and a good mix of all income brackets throughout the city.

When I have the choice between your right to pay a little bit less taxes and another one's right to not starve, my choice is very simple. You probably already have enough, the other one hasn't, I profit from them not starving more than from you having that money.

Yes, it's a common idea but relies on a misunderstanding - it would have required exactly the same difficulty as switching to IPv6, because there's no way to make an 'ipv4 with more bits' compatible with regular IPv4 software or hardware, without changing to a dual stack arrangement (which requires replacing all the packet processing hardware in big routers that relies on the layout of the IP header) - exactly the same problem we had with IPv6.

I have been using it with Oracle SQLPlus to regain some sanity. I wish Oracle would develop a good CLI and make it available by default. For bonus points, release it to be relocatable and backward compatible with older versions.

I am just observing that the scope of GCHQ’s abilities are obviously limited compared to the NSA (unless they have the most cost-efficient IT infrastructure in the world, and we don’t do cost-efficient government IT here even now). The budget just isn’t there for them to operate the way the NSA does.

And three, they're admitting they don't back anything up (backup defined as not just slinging bytes somewhere but the availability to restore those bytes and bring a service back up on a timeline that is certainly well lower than 3 days. With regular testing to understand the timeline and ensure everything actually works.)

ps -- it's not about being bashing these folks. But these type of multiple operational incompetencies strongly call into question their ability to safeguard your bytes and produce them when you need them. It's kinda the whole point of the thing.
I'm guessing they are used to the default Unity 3D scene and player controller.

Unity can create any type of game. In the end it's just helping you push vertices and shaders around.

I do agree Unreal has it's roots more in 3D character shooters. A lot of assumptions built in but you can still work around them there too.
the hallucinations is exactly what I enjoy the most about midjourney. If you want a detailed photo of exactly your prompt, I'd probably not use midjourney, but for making weird wonky artistic stuff, it's amazing.

Well, because we’ve discovered time and again that when we fuck up ecosystems, it’s bad for us, too. Should we care specifically about the desert tortoise above other species? Probably not. Should we be cautious about taking actions that have long ranging future consequences, such as obliterating at least one species? Probably yes. It’s not so much that the desert tortoise is of particular concern, it’s more that we’re so bad at tending to the one and only livable planet realistically available to us that we keep rendering it uninhabitable for species that have the same basic vital needs as us that should be cause for reflection.

I’ll note as an aside that as we expand our bioengineering capabilities, the stock of genetic resources we’re drawing on as our toolkit is exactly the biodiversity we’re rapidly depleting, so even beyond the warm fuzzies of not rendering entire species extinct and the basic awareness of how finite and bounded our little bubble of cosmic survivability is, it seems like a waste to keep throwing away the library of useful genetics that took a couple billion years to furnish the first time.

You automatically test restore? That makes sense but I've never heard of that before, can you describe the process?
Is it such a myth, though?

IPv6 still causes troubles in deployment.

For example, Android phones (still!!!) don't support stateful DHCPv6. Moreover, DHCPv6 was designed by idiots and out of many options for DUIDs it doesn't allow the most logical one: a user-specified host name.

PMTU in IPv6 is even _more_ broken than in V4 because extension headers just plain don't work in the wide Internet.
The missing word from this conversation is "duty": a moral obligation to others.

People pretend rights can exists without duties because, like you said, they're trying to get good things for free. They're asking for work from others and not being upfront on the price of the work. I say "I have a right to good service at the DMV", because I can't say the DMV must give me, let alone everyone, good service. In a larger view[1], a language of rights without duties undermines the broader social contract, confuses conversations with indirect terms[2], and provides the selfish with the illusion of care for their fellow man.

As it so happens, the original declaration of human rights[2] specifically calls out the necessary union of duties and rights. However, the UN declaration does not do so, likely because no one, bar a few western countries, actually had the power to enforce those rights on a global scale. Hannah Arendt commented on this topic at length, though it's hard for hyper-individualists to digest[4].

Security, for the average person, is not all or nothing, unless you're suggesting that every Apple user also automatically gains perfect password management practices and all software running on it becomes unexploitable.

It's funny how Apple must not be criticized for its unethical practices, its hardware is secure while other devices are insecure, all over highly targeted exploit vectors that do not apply to the vast majority of Apple users, while all the low-hanging, wide impact exploits remain just as open. Just another part of Apple's 'reality distortion field' - lock down the hardware, thwart repair efforts, tell people it's for their own good and you get people acting like Apple devices are secure from the threats which matter most.

IPv6 failed because they tried to boil the ocean. It was design by committee, where everyone got their pet feature thrown in to appease and gain consensus. Alternatively IPv4 is a mountain of small hacks, which is its biggest strength.

We could have done a lot of good by adopting proposals to extend v4 like 0/8 and class D, but instead the decision was made to collectively drown the babies in the bathwater and insist on v6 at all costs.

If I look to nations that are the most bullish when it comes to positive human rights they beat most other nations in nearly every human-centric metric conceivable. Last time I have been in Copenhagen it didn't look like they were worse off for doing all that positive right stuff — quite the opposite, I'd choose Copenhagen over literally every US city every day.

I know the US is good at pretending their problems are so unique that all the rational and numbers-based approaches everywhere else in the world won't fly, but in my eyes you either want to live in a society and want it to be good or you pretend you don't live inside one and deal with the consequences. The former gives me a happier life, the latter gives me dystopian vibes and a bit more on the bank account so my choice should be clear.
