>Myanmar

Pretty much all negative coverage of JF17 (joint PRC+PK manufacturing but so far SOLD by PK) are sourced from Indian tabloid rags with no credibility. Myanmar airforce has 100+ PRC airframes, variety of models in the last 30 years with little issue. Pretty much the only useful piece of info so far is Myanmar doesn't have adequate experience operating tech in 4th gen fighters, most of their fleet is 3rd gen. IIRC Myanmar got the jets before they even got simluators, and then bought 4th gen trainers (JL9) from PRC.

>Thailand

Yuan subs aren't operational because PRC couldn't acquire original specified German engines after EU sanctions. There's a period where Thai Navy was deciding whether to accept PRC engines, which they did. Some analysts implied if Thai did not accept PRC engines it would imply they were unsuitable, even more retarded media then spung that as technical issues with PRC engines. Both complete misinformation narratives since there's no basis for evaluating those unintegrated PRC engines at all.

>aircraft carriers

Training carriers based off RU design that analysis suggest PLAN has more or less maximized sortie potential vs when USSR was running carrier ops on similar flight deck. Late 2022 USNI analysis on PLAN carrier ops is they're basically reached "true" blue water deployment, i.e. a few hundred nms near Guam, 1000nm+ from mainland, with no divert airfrields or aerial refueling as backup. Which is about as far as PRC none nuke carriers need to deploy given strategic considerations. Caveate being conservative sorties and pretty clean (light) load outs to compensate for lack of divertion and ski jump. The struggle with PLAN carriers is they won't have catapults and capabilites that brings until 003 and training was hectic because they only had 1-2 carriers training 3-4 crew rotations, somewhat alleviated by converted cruise/barrack ships. TLDR is I would not characterize as overall carrier ops capabilities as struggling as limited by hardware, which TBH is expected since carriers does not seem particularly high priority outside of prestige - given PRC ship building capacity, they could have rushed 10 carriers like US did Forrestal class. Basically most US analysis of various PRC military modernization is they're lacking and focusing on XYZ, but should get there in a few years. Occasionally throw in the word struggle because they watch CCTV7 where miltiary propaganda talks about how hard they work. A few years later, new analysis that they got there (i.e. asw, jointness), something something evolving, modernizing at astonishing rate, but here's the new struggle. Rinse and repeat. Combined with customary but no real combat experience (which no one has in modern peer warfare). But the underlying pattern if you look at meat of improvements year by year is PLA modernizing fast.
BERT is encoder only and was designed for classification and natural language inference problems. The original Transformer was encoder-decoder and was designed for translation.

BERT can't be used in an autoregressive way because it doesn't output a new token, it simply generates embeddings from the existing tokens (you get one for each input token).

That's some serious gaslighting.
That's quite a forfeiture. I guess in the end, titular ownership of a French metric tonne of money didn't buy him happiness but handing it over to the state has avoided a lot of pain.

I stress titular because the piece suggests he really only pays $6m or so, unless the one billion four hundred and ninety-four million other dollars magically emerges from under a sofa cushion.

What would his retained wealth be, once the various porsche and Tony properties are also unwound? Does he actually walk away with anything or is he now back in the saddle working for a living?

I'm also guessing the GOP doesn't have to give back the $24m he gave them. And, he's telling tales on the others, on the record, as much as the prosecutor wants.

I would expect them to get to iCloud via this attach chain even with advanced data protection on. Which means if you are targeted, they not only get data from your iPhone but also all the data you backed up to iCloud from your other apple devices.
I suspect they would be able to compromise apps like 1Password through this. Which means all services whose password and 2FA is stored together in 1Password is compromised.

It is good to know lockdown mode stopped this attach chain.

Given this has happened so many times, new security posture for a normal/regular security conscious person should be:

1. Disable iMessage.

2. Enable lockdown mode.

3. Disable iCloud. (If you choose to keep iCloud enabled, definitely enable Advanced Data Protection and disable iCloud Web, disable passcodes and keychain on iCloud. Disable iCloud mail – it uses 3rdparty proofpoint for scanning – more surface area for compromise).

4. Don't store password and 2FA together in the same system like 1password. Always use FIDO2 physical key based 2FA, if available.
But a tree sitter mode could parse the related files in the background. That’s exactly what an LSP server does, too.

Mining is not needed to keep the grid reliable or smooth imbalances. You can achieve this by dispatching or cutting off the marginal generators needed to serve the load in real time (the marginal generators serving the load of these facilities are already quick response generators that don’t benefit from already being on and switching from mining facility to demand bursts elsewhere). They increase demand and necessarily move dispatch up the supply stack, increasing the marginal power price which sets the clearing price for all megawatts in the iso auctions and consequently the power prices for all customers. They also increase congestion by requiring more megawatts to flow increasing the congestion price component of the nodal LMPs (locational power prices).

Here is how prices are set in an iso auction. This is from iso New England. But works the same way in all isos including ERCOT.

It doesn’t matter to me if the mining operations are running or not, but they’re not helping the grid. Citing a crypto company on this is comically biased.

Leveraging Rust to speed Node.js is cool and all, but why the author didn't attempt to optimize the JS code first? If too much intermediate objects negatively impact memory consumption, surely re-using the same structure or variables to hold the parsed result would have improved the performance? The benchmark tests not only the speedup brought up by Rust, but an optimization too, so it's unclear which impacts the performance the most.

On one hand there is a customer who is always willing to buy electricity you can generate in extremely predictable volumes and they will stop when you ask them to. A grid operator should be able to figure out a way to ensure that they always have a profitable arrangement on net with this customer. TFA doesn't have a single data point that the deal is a loser for ERCOT or other rate payers - just knee jerk reactions based on the underlying assumption that something must be wrong. It is perfectly plausible that ERCOT, Riot and other rate payers are all benefiting from the agreement and perhaps there's only an argument about how to distribute that benefit fairly. Given ERCOT's public responsibilities to transparency and the clicks a reporter could generate if they could materially show that either ERCOT or the other rate payers were losing with this deal (to evil crypto of all things) I am inclined to say the whole thing is a nothingburger.

On the other hand we have proposals to increase the upfront costs, consume more valuable land (real estate prices too low for anyone's taste?), and utilize it in environmentally unfriendly ways (who wants to live next to a rock crusher operation or an aluminum factory). Relying on Bitcoin miners as a flexible consumer is extremely compelling.

the car maker might be able to make this impossible, but last i heard, people have done it. Unfortunately, due to a lot of cars being software, the manufacturer could detect and cause headaches for you, in an attempt to discourage it.

most, if not all microsoft products can have their sources be available for viewing, if you are one of those vip development partners. microsoft doesn't really have any secret source (pardon the pun) of which the leaking would undo their value proposition.

In fact, if microsft opened up their system a bit more, they might even gain some PR or mindshare, and have no effect on, if not increase, their bottom line.
They would also expect BMW to nickel and dime you. BMW are notorious for the options. I recall when the radio was optional.
TLDR Microsoft will litigate against any suits until one side goes broke. That side is probably not Microsoft.
> I would argue that iMessage is way to problematic to be used safely, at all.

Maybe I'm missing something but every single time the only part of iMessage (actually Messages.app) that is insecure is the bit that automatically unfurls attachments and the payload is exploiting a vulnerability elsewhere. So any other app unfurling the attachment thus triggering the payload would be equally vulnerable.

Imagine ping had a privilege escalation vulnerability and someone does ssh foomachine ping <payload> to get root, it'd be a bit weird to call out ssh as being unsafe because it can execute commands, one of them being able to privesc.

Disabling ssh would be a mitigation, and I do wish Messages would disallow unfurling for senders not in the recipient's contact list.
And there are perfectly fine alternatives that do not sacrifice features or convenience in the slightest. I don't see a legitimate use case for Chrome.
> Some people in the privacy community seem to think advertising and tracking in any form should not exist and will always make a stink about whatever incarnation they take.

I don't think I'm in the "privacy community". It's my opinion that advertising will always exist, but tracking is complete horseshit and should be abolished ASAP. I don't think this is a very unpopular opinion either. There seems to be an attempt to Stockholm us all into thinking tracking is a necessary evil we must accept.
There was a security personality who said (roughly, paraphrased), the following:

> The biggest weakness and strength in security is loyalty and ego.

Nation states can do things that private corporations can't. Appealing to ego is a big one. National loyalty is another. That, in addition to blackmail, bribes, offering a save-haven, etc... are hard to compete with.

That being said, defense mechanisms can be build that are make insider compromise difficult to fight against. For example, HSMs are one key tool that make insider compromise much more difficult. I've worked at a non-zero number of companies that hired external firms (think the Xerox and ATTs of the world) to perform security critical activities, or audit employee requests -- that didn't work so well, but there are tools here. Most of the time they aren't just "Limit access to the people that need it" -- in fact, if you rely really heavily on ACLs, and not an inherit built-in security model to your system, I'd say the risk of something going wrong is much higher.
What structured data support are you referring to? I'm out of the loop, did they add something new in the API?

I think it'll be a big thing in tech circles, but I don't think the average user is going to install a third-party app store. It's also a lot of friction to convince people they should care and guide them through the process, meanwhile you can bet Apple and Google will have campaigns against it.

Of course, people will make alternate scammmy app stores to prey on less savvy users, but someone could also make one with more moderation than Apple and force them to get better.

I think the biggest change will be for developers to use their own payment system and keep more of the money, but there'll also be more risk of bad implementations leading to stolen card data.

> Promise.all, isn't that delightful?). However, to our surprise, we soon ran into out-of-memory issues,

I think I must be misunderstanding something, but isn’t that exactly what you should expect?

We use node.js to process solar plant data. Which is massive amounts of data as each individual solar panel will log information about its power generation and status every few seconds. We can then use this to figure out which solar panels have a birds nest on them, and so on. Node performs this task well enough, but it obviously can’t be aggregated. Even if you were to spread it out on 25 node instances “concurrently” with control shift you’d run into out-of-memory issues extremely fast. I guess you could up the upper limit on when node.js stops being cool with its own memory usage, but honestly we tend to simply avoid the use promise aggregation exactly because it tends to ”break” node.

I think moving to Rust was probably a good idea for this. Go might’ve been a better option if you were going for a “modern” concurrent language, but whatever works! We tend to use C ourselves when node needs a little boost. But often Node can handle these things on its own. With the solar data we use worker threads to collect and process the data in real time, which is really parallel-execution and not concurrency, but it works well and it doesn’t get you into performance issues.
I don't understand the big deal, I look at the price and features and see if it makes sense for me. Nothing wrong with market segmentation. Some people want a fancy brand car as a checkbox but can only pay so much, for others a little extra is no big deal. The only way to find out who is who is offer different packages for different price, even if the differences are more economically controlled by software. Would anyone really prefer not being able to afford a luxury brand at all, or paying more than they are comfortable with? This way, wealthy consumers effectively subsidize hardware for less wealthy consumers.
