Rock-solid hardware and muuuch better UX that RouterOS.

Don't remember when I setup those, but probably well before Covid. Really fire-and-forget devices.

But average alcohol consumption has also been decreasing, quite substantially compared to a century ago. Maybe we should be drinking more.
> why? they trained on my code without my consent, why is user data any different?

It's different. Code and other content that you shared online - no matter what license you shared it under - is still fundamentally different from user data that you never shared anywhere at all.

That difference is really important, to me at least.

I would be absolutely furious if I found that someone had trained an AI model on my private data in Dropbox. I personally have no problem at all with someone training an AI model on content I have posted to my blog.

The real question here for me is: why is my data not flowing through Ubiquiti's servers end-to-end encrypted?

They should be able to accidentally send my data to another user and have it merely result in a decryption failure.

In China they already took a step further. The kids were using their parents' ID card to play games, so those games had to implement face recognition in addition to the ID card.

If those are your needs, you order all the parts you need over your product’s lifetime up-front or get (= pay for) a contract with the manufacturer that makes them promise to sell you the parts for X years (they probably wouldn’t keep producing old parts, but would stockpile enough of them to be able to deliver working ones years later)

(Or you prepare for having to go to eBay for working parts. https://www.nytimes.com/2002/05/12/us/for-parts-nasa-boldly-...)
One benefit of an AI accelerator on CPU die is that the accelerator gets access to system memory. If you build the system with lots of high-bandwidth system memory, as Apple does with their M3 Max systems, then the system can run more capable AI models locally.

For example, currently most GPUs have a max of 16Gb of NVRAM, but usually 8GB or 12GB (except for more expensive workstation cards and similar [1]). But if you can spec a system with 32GB, 64GB, 96GB, or 128GB or more system memory with sufficient bandwidth to the CPU, then the accelerator can run a broader range of bigger models locally.

Afaik Apple M2 Pro and M3 Pro/Max systems are the only ones with that capability right now.

The spin off was alright but I didn't really care enough to keep it up, and I get a lot of people didn't. LOTR comes to mind too, ditto for a lot of the "slop" that Disney has been pushing for Star Wars.

There is a lot more stuff out there, and most of it isn't great, so Ima tune it out until the test of time determines if it's worth it.

This is huge! Please link me to the evidence to back this up.
158! Well then I concede.

In all seriousness, that take was polemic and arguably bad-faith when it was published; and it is much more egregiously so now.

The good news is we're going to hear much, much less about "stochastic parrots" when multi-modal models come into their own. The "faked" Gemini video may have been faked but it won't be fake for particularly long, that should be obvious to anyone in or closely following the field.

The premise that human beings do something substantially different from correlate multilevel abstractions is looking pretty weak.

If one prefers to take the other side as primary and start arguing that what they mean by parrots applies about as much to humans, well, then we can start using that language.

Otherwise it's poppycock.

Even if no one ever does that, sends an empty car anywhere, there will be an increase in "drivers" on the road as more people that would not be allowed to drive because they have no license (ie. the elderly and children) are now able to drive by themselves in a single car, whereas previously they would have transported themselves with other people or on public transit.

Autonomous cars will result in an explosion of cars on the road and a severe increase in traffic. It'll be a disaster.
People saying "inflation hedge" are at a minimum, English speakers, and secondly, are likely Americans who were concerned about the 9%+ inflation of a year or two ago.

Alternatively, maybe they're British but the great inflation affected both sides of the Atlantic. Then again, Coinbase is an American company providing American services, so I think its safe to say that this topic is American focused.
Same story for me, Hackers was great inspiration and I still watch it often. Hack the Planet!
Let me frame this in a story:

Dave is a prostitute. He is hired by Sue via contract. In this contract, Dave agrees to have sex with Sue. Also in the contract is the agreement that Sue may introduce any sex toys that will not physically harm Dave.

When they get together, Dave notices a camera pointed at them. Sue tells Dave that, "I only record sex with people who consent to my use of a camera."

Later, Dave learns that Sue did in fact record the encounter. Sue's defense? The camera was a sex toy! It didn't physically harm you! This was all in the contract!

Is Sue's defense valid? Of course not! Sue has committed fraud.

We should hold corporations every bit as accountable as we would fictional prostitutes.
Nope, there is no restriction for plus addresses. I validate email addresses and specifically allow + and . in the part before the @ sign. myemail+1@mydomain.com and myemail+2@mydomain.com will be considered two different users.

Have to add also that the "plus feature" isn't a Gmail-specific invention but a standardized way of referring to the same mailbox using different addresses. But some email providers don't support this feature, and many input validators out on the Internet don't either.
My edge: the Fed's discretion
As a network engineer, I've considered them for my house, the price is right, but:

1) Their main push seems to use a thick client for admin which is a big no to me, otherwise the web ui in theory looks ok-ish.
2) Looking at their cli guide, it was cryptic as hell to me, and I deal with everything from cisco, arista, aruba, juniper, fortinet, pan, whatever from a cli or gui.

This was mostly confirmed a few weeks back, another old network engineer friend of mine hit me up asking if I've ever dealt with Mikrotik, and said no, but I knew where he was going. He'd screwed with it for a day or so supposedly just trying to make some L3 vlans, and finally a day or so later told me he'd made it work, but has never dealt with anything so terrible to configure from either gui or cli after having tried both, and he's another 20yr+ network engineer like me I trust not to be stupid.

That was all I needed to hear for future consideration.
That's like saying "repeatedly banging your head on the wall is not a problem; it's only a problem if you can't stop at will".

The latest science says no amount of alcohol is good for you. And there's plenty of evidence that any amount of alcohol is bad for you. Of course there is pleasure that comes with imbibing alcoholic drinks, unlike banging your head on the wall, but you are still damaging your body with every sip.

Unfortunately the words "alcoholic" and "addict" are difficult for people to accept and associated with only the worst cases. But I think addiction is far more common than we think.

I used to drink occasionally, maybe once a week, to slight excess which one might call "merry" or "tipsy". I would always sleep badly and feel terrible the next day. I would also eat essentially an extra meal after drinking (usually consisting of junk food). This would happen every single time and I observed that this commonly happened to others too on a regular occurrence. Knowing that these bad effects would ensue, continuing to drink made me an addict: I knew it was bad for me, but I did it anyway.
Not sure anyone's asking for "benefit of the doubt". As defenses against privacy intrusion go, "Of course Facebook isn't listening to all your conversations and using that to serve ads to you. Why, that would be too expensive to contemplate. All they're doing is tracking everything you and your friends do on the web, tracking your location, noticing you're physically close to each other, inferring that you're probably having a conversation together, and using your friend's web activity to serve you targeted ads, as just one of a suite of methods for targeting ads based on your context. Also as soon as it's not too expensive to contemplate we're probably going to actually do it. We're not failing to do it for any ethical reason. It's just too expensive right now." is pretty weak sauce.

"We're not actually transcribing every word you hear and say, we're just using capabilities that the Stasi could only dream of at rates of speed they couldn't even conceive of, and it's just that these coincidences happen so often that it looks like we're transcribing your speech. Come on, be less paranoid."
Even better, sell something that is perceived to be a solution and the problem keeps existing. Ideally that then creates a new problem. See for example "Torches of Freedom".
There's a learning curve indeed, but it's also essentially just a thin wrapper around nftables (read iptables) so you learn about Linux networking by using them

To me, the problem is that while you might block your children from using social media, are all of your children's friends going to be in the same situation. If your kid has a circle of friends that interacts a lot on social media, and your kid doesn't participate in that, eventually they will be left out of that group.
Long-Term News
I built a UniFi network 6 or 7 years ago. I was pretty excited, as the hardware seemed properly solid. A touch expensive, but I was expecting it to run forever, essentially.

The hardware was actually really good from what I could tell. Not a single issue that wasn't caused by my own misconfiguration. But the software, woof. The software was designed to do exactly one thing: look impressive to execs in a board meeting. It was nearly unusable for me. I don't recall any specifics, but all you really need to know is that it took multiple days to get a simple home network with a single AP and a single router set up. It was so much effort just to log in to the damn thing.

I went into this project excited at the prospect of all the cool monitoring and analytics I could do. Fancy security and remote access and whatnot. After I finally got everything configured, I never touched it again. There were a few times when I needed or wanted to get into it, but I couldn't remember the specific incantation and combination of software needed to access it, so I just didn't.

I'd love to have a solid system built on quality hardware. UniFi is notionally exactly what I want, and exactly what a lot of hackers and tinkerers want. But the quality of your hardware is pretty much irrelevant if your software wasn't designed to be used by humans.

So I'm stuck using consumer routers with open firmware. It's fine I guess.
Even the word manifesto was new to me and got me interested in what that was about.
Conversely, characters like Carl Clover in BlazBlue. The difficulty of controlling 2 characters seperately but in tandem is challenging but not difficult to input inherently.

Once you get used to the input style the complexity makes the character and thus the game more fun and interesting.
Hard reset will not automatically downgrade the firmware.

And I don't think it's a good idea to manage multiple APs using the app instead of from the controller. Managing a single AP from the app is ok, but I think you'll run into problems when you have multiple in a network.
Right, I'm saying an outsider doesn't have an experience of the user and so no grounds for any particular insight about them and their use and its effects.

Their family and friends however are not outsiders. They have hard facts about how the use affects them, which is often some of the most significant negative consequences of drug use. I don't think any single person is situated to confidently say that someone else's use isn't a problem. But in cases where it is a problem, family often have all the information necessary to know that it is.
a plumbers livelihood depends on his tools but no one in their right mind would compare a hammer to a seatbelt like this.

The reason people like you are not listened to is that you're so unreasonable.

It's not an accident that ada was designed years ago for software that IS critical in this manner, because different decisions get made. But the vast majority of software is not going to end up with people dead, hence why arguments comparing life-or-death situations with your run-of-the-mill C code is assinine.

Yes, it's true that GCC code will never live under the same level of scrutiny as NASA code, nor should it.
> LTD broadband couldn't show they had the money.

The point was that it’s not some conspiracy against Musk, there are others that defaulted. Other than LTD and SpaceX there are 20 others that defaulted last year for varying reasons.

> RDOF requires speed testing of the devices deployed under RDOF, not the entire network.

You’re talking about seeing if the requirements are met at the end, the FCC and I are talking about looking at how feasible and likely it is that the requirements are going to be met before handing the bag with money.

> If say you have a 900Mhz network and you plan to deploy 5GNR for fixed wireless, they don't get to tell you you can only achieve 1 Mbps right now.

No they don’t. But they do get to tell you how feasible your plan is, how realistic your schedule is and how likely it is 5GNR is going to meet the requirements of your bid based on the knowledge of the technology and historical performance at prior implementations.

When you submit a LEO satellite bid with the exact same specifications as the ones you currently use, then you can’t then around and cry when they look at its current performance and performance trends.

> You don't need to start deployment till you get the money.

True, but you do need to present a plan that isn’t based on lofty promises and has a that explains why it’s likely you’ll be able to meet the requirements of your bid.

Edit: Just now realized that you’re wrong on not having to build anything, there are buildout requirements.

Given that I encounter at least one violation a day, it's really a small list.

It should contains hundred of thousands of entries.

Like fines for speeding.

Imagine if you had a page for parking tickets since 2018 (!) and it contained only a few hundred penalties.

This is ridiculous, especially since:

- it's not hard to find most cases. Just take any cookie banner that makes harder to opt out than opt in, and that's it, you have a violation. It can even be automated.

- it can bring a lot of money to a system that is dying for it.

Yeah, there's more to it than just population density. There also needs to be a sufficient density of walkable places for people to take transit to, and that's also missing in much of American suburbia.

I agree. I understand sometimes a person is under enormous pressure to do something they know is not right.
Unfortunately, they will probably respond by raising rates to cover lost revenue from early termination fees and the loss of lock-in. This is arguably better though, since there is up-front pricing.

EDIT: Perhaps the only situation where it isn’t is where they are the only game in town and you intend to ride out the whole contract.

My agenda with this article is to make AI companies aware that they have a genuine crisis on their hands, and hopefully push them to be more transparent and work hard to try and regain the trust that they have lost.

I added the bit about local models mainly because I knew that if I didn't 90% of the conversation about the article would be "yeah but he didn't talk about the obvious solution, which is local models".

NPM optionally enforces 2FA. You can create an automation token to bypass it. In that case depending on how branches are protected a push to the right branch can publish a new package.

Relaying is a central feature of email infrastructure and it isn't somehow cheating to relay outgoing mail to someone else rather than send it directly.
Hence my concern. This is a problem only a well-capitalized organization can work on; one that can afford to play around with big models.
I love Tailscale, but you are really then just substituting one company's remote access for another's. I'm quite certain that TS are more capable of creating a secure system than Ubiquiti are, but still, the principle of not trusting others with access to your network, is violated by TS.

You're imagining the Guilty Gear series, which gives you a variety of defensive options in the system - you can jump, double jump, or super jump to avoid something with different take-off timings, jump arcs, and speeds; you can block, instant block, or faultless defend to change the amount of chip damage, block stun, and pushback in an effort to throw off your opponent's timing; you can dead angle while blocking to try and recover initiative; you can backdash or throw out a move that's invulnerable on startup in an attempt to get your opponent to whiff.
