We'll see what Eddie does after the next time he votes himself a payrise.

You still seem to think that it's OK for someone on ~£70k per year salary to live in housing intended for the most vulnerable, though, which is a strange for position for someone of the left.

What?

> It has the side effect of sending every domain you visit to the certificate log server.

No? It means that if a certificate is to be trusted, it needs to enter a public append only log server.

It does not "send every domain you visit to CT." The certificate simply has to be in CT before chrome trusts it.

CT logs are public, you can (and many do) make archives of it.

The idea is simple, if a website is to be _publicly trusted_, it needs to also be publicly logged.

You have heavily misunderstood what CT does, and the paradigm of control around it.

A reasonably priced serverless (kinda) setup is possible on Fly.io.

Fly charges for a VM by the second, and when a VM is off, RAM and CPU are not charged (storage is still charged). They also allow you to easily configure shutting down machines when there are no active requests (right from their config file `fly.toml`), and support a more advanced method which involves your application essentially terminating itself when there's no work remaining, which kills the VM. When a new request arrives, it starts back up.

Here are the docs [0]. And here's a blog post on how to terminate the VM from inside a Phoenix app for example [1].

So essentially, you can write an app which processes multiple requests on the same VM (so not really serverless), but also saves costs when its not in use (essentially the promise of serverless).

The Mandelbrot example seems to make interpreted Python stand in for "the CPU performance"?

If that's true, then I'm surprised they only see a 10x speed-up. I would expect more from only compiling that loop for the CPU. (Comparing to interpreted Python without numpy.) Given they already have a numba version, why not compile it for the CPU and compare?

Also, they say consumer CPUs have 2-16 cores. (Who has 2 cores these days?) They go on suggest to rent an AWS GPU for $3 per hour. You're more likely to get 128 cores for that price, still on a single VM.

Not saying it will be easy to write multi-threaded code for the CPU. But if you're lucky, the Python library you're using already does it.
We come across them all the time when doing internal network pentests (most organizations use AD for managing their fleet of end-user systems), and occasionally external tests as well. Stackoverflow is a site that comes to mind as being known for running their production systems on Windows Server.

It's disapointing to see zero criticism applied to Apple and Google.

All of Apple's credability about needing to maintain control over iOS apps and App Store goes out the window once it's evident they make a fuck tonne of money selling casino games to children (and adults).
When implemented properly, even weak passwords can take a long time to crack.

I usually implement a time out. For example, after 5 unsuccessful attempts, you're locked out for 3 minutes. After 20 unsuccessful attempts in a row, you need to contact somebody for a reset.

You can't crack anything if you can't test your attempts.

2FA adds significant difficulty and can alert others to any attempt. In my experience, most hackers will abort any attempt and move on to greener pastures once they discover 2FA is required.
It was fine when forums were still a big thing, that wasn't a bad transition.

What I find now is that there is less community. Even "social networks" like TikTok aren't really social, in that nobody is doing much socializing. We're all just throwing out witty little comments and leaving.

Another person who doesn't understand a damn thing about why the safety daemon is needed or how it works.

If you keep careful track of the audio going through the speakers and the energy in each frequency range, you can figure out exactly what the temperature is at any given moment and make sure it stays under the limit. However, this requires a ton of math.

Alternatively, you can just put a hard cap on the volume, such that no combination of frequencies could ever overheat the speakers. This is safe, but sounds like crap. It's a far, far less nuanced way to do things and results in restricting how hard you can drive the speakers far more than is actually nesisary.

I can't find the sources now, so take it with an appropriate degree of skepticism, but I heard it on an EV podcast or something. I believe Tesla was working on a project like this years ago and abandoned it. They opted to go for structural packs instead.
The idea that war is unprofitable and best avoided if possible was already a big theme in Sun Tzu's Art of War. War is insanely expensive, both in terms of the people, resources and infrastructure lost, and in terms of the opportunity cost of what you could have done instead.

Sure, in principle putting in some fixed amount of resources to get a piece of land forever is worth it eventually. But that's not how it usually works out. If you conquer land from somebody, they don't roll over and accept that. Chances are you will be back on the same battlefield, fighting over that same land a couple decades later. Or if it's large enough empires fighting each other you fight over a different piece of land in a couple years. But either way, the country that can maintain peace without too many concessions and focus on their economy tends to be better off. The only major exception is colonization, where you fight against people who don't have a cohesive country that could retaliate later on.

The cost of war has arguably gone down a lot in the last two centuries or so, since we can now fight total war and have farmers ploughing the field at the same time, due to the insane efficiency gains in agriculture. At the same time the benefits of gaining land have gone down. Doubly so the benefits of gaining bombed-out land where the population was displaced by said war.
And yet we all still use door locks, despite the fact that a skilled lock picker could break every standard door lock in minutes. This illustrates the importance of threat modeling.

What, you wouldn't like a world where you can only drive on the roads you pay for, as part of your AppleWay™ subscription? Not to be confused with the roads available on GoogleMotor™, of course!

> I think most of what we ascribe to intelligence in LLMs is a kind of textual pareidolia

This is a great way of expressing a thought I’ve been unable to fully articulate.
Could be! Your estimate is as valid as mine.

I suppose that to approach a topic like this, we can reason in the classical-logic manner of the ancient Greeks and others who sought to understand their universe without yet having the instruments to make necessary observations. What I mean is, without our civilization having seen evidence either way yet, the question of what is a good prior probability is only able to be informed through non-empirical means, such as the philosophy of science (e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunrise_problem ), philosophy of knowledge (e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropic_principle ), and theology (e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Best_of_all_possible_worlds ).

Another similar topic about which we must reason without having yet made any applicable observations is the question of whether our universe is a simulation. If it is, then it is possible that a sufficiently well-constructed prayer (message to the system administrators) could have causal effects.
If you haven’t read the book Diaspora, you might enjoy it.
If you like books, just stick with the books. If you like movies more, I'd only recommend watching LotR; The Hobbit movie was a too-liberally-interpreted stretch of filler into three films. If I had to watch any adaptation again, it'd be the Rankin & Bass animation. I've read the book at least five times and will probably read it a few more before I expire.

If Tolkien's world is all-absorbing and you're more forgiving than I am, by all means enjoy watching The Hobbit, and I'd say start there for the chronology, and so you end of a high note quality-wise.
Cool, thank you! Yes, I haven't so far but I might in future need that. Anything that increase the speed of those feedback loops! :) I wonder how it works? Looks cool
While I can be quite critical of the EU this actually sounds somewhat convenient, from a practical standpoint at least.

Currently in Finland I can identify online through my Finnish bank credentials, but that's of no use in Spain for example because even if they were to recognize Finnish banks as authoritative the information that is passed from there is my Finnish social security number, while in Spain I identify either by passport number or by NIE (foreign identity number).

A standardization would be convenient, that I could verify my identity online regardless of which European country I'm dealing with.

Edit: I mean from a privacy standpoint we all have social security numbers already, this (on the surface at last) just seems like a standardization of identifying online across Eueopean countries. Or am I missing something?

Edit2: But..! I would definitely vote against tying this to biometrics. But I think that ship has already sailed? Aren't everyone requiring biometrics for passports nowadays? So the only way to avoid it is to not travel.

This is very wise and I recommend this to everyone, but is not without problems; notably if you want to parallelize the build in a stateless build system with ephemeral runners (like GHA) you have to be very careful about caching your intermediate artifacts.

I keep waiting for ultracheap eGo batteries.

Actually I keep waiting for ultracheap lithium ion batteries, period. They are simply not being migrated to the consumer segment in proportion with the cost cuts that the auto manufacturers are getting.

Like, where are my LFP and sodium ion batteries that should be dirt cheap?

This mirrors a frustration I have with consumer solar cells which are far too expensive compared to the deals utilities get.

This isn't just being cheap, there's lots of small scale stuff that consumer-level volumes can help with decarbonization. Yes, I understand that utility/industrial level price points are a special thing, but the consumer pricing is like 3x what the industrial pricing is. That means there is highway robbery.

In my business, we heavily use FaaS, and I agree that it seems economical. It's a little surprising, though. AWS Lambda is 5 to 6 times higher price per second than an EC2 instance for a given level of memory and CPU. Our application simply doesn't need much CPU time. Other aspects (database, storage) are more expensive.

The main advantage, though, is predictability of operations. The FaaS services "just work". If we accidentally make a change to one endpoint to consume too much resources, it doesn't affect anything else. It's great for allowing fast changes to new functionality without much risk of breaking mature features.

1 to 5 is .7 orders of magnitude; 1 to 2 is 0.3; both are roughly equidistant from half an order of magnitude.

Clearly we need $1, $3, $9, $27 bills ;)

An interesting thing to think about is-- assuming the distribution of transaction values follows a power law-- where's the point of diminishing returns on having more denominations? I know this isn't well-posed; we'd also have to quantify the downside in having more denominations.

What part of what I said was incorrect?

Your source doesn't make the case that I was incorrect about any of my assertions. That doesn't mean I'm right, of course, but I don't see how examples of privacy controls successfully protecting data disproves them. There can still be cases where the controls failed.
Maybe you missed the sliders? The effect is pretty dramatic and if you think they show 'barely any change at all' then I'm not sure how that's even possible.

I'm confused, are you just mad about the label middle class, or do you believe that the only people spending large sums on gambling can afford it and therefore there are no ethical issues in this type of business?

Because you seem to be setting up a straw man bringing in a lot of talk about net worths in the millions, when the conversation was about losing "hundreds of thousands". The median net worth for a US family is $192k according to a recent Nerdwallet article, so it's absolutely in the realm of possibility that millions of Americans are vulnerable to losing hundreds of thousands to a gambling addiction. Certainly a lot of people would have their lives destroyed by losing $50k to a gambling addiction, and no doubt that happens plenty. Where we draw the line on what constitutes middle class doesn't really seem all that relevant to me.

Worse, it’s arguably anti-competitive behavior. Though, truth be told, once I looked at the facts, I would prefer Google to have my data siloed (which itself, yes is not good) than random third party data collectors that would sell it on data markets.

Yeah that sounds right to me. Even though use of the internet has expanded a lot since I was a kid, I remember making more genuine friends in the earlier days.

My theory is that it has to do with the ubiquity of feedback mechanisms. Likes, followers, upvotes, etc. It's a never-ending popularity contest. We're now living this Onion satire from 14 years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFpK_r-jEXg

The ubiquity of the "news feed" concept could also play a role -- long-running discussions are now fairly impossible. People who disagree just take potshots at each other, instead of getting to the root of the disagreement.

It's a shame there's so much homogeneity across different social sites. Wish people would experiment more.
