You absolutely can be phobic (read: afraid) towards certain cultures and religious values. It is not a secret that people from abrahamic countries more often get their - conservative - values from religion than people in the west nowadays do.

As a bisexual man who has a lot of connections / friends in the gay community, we are afraid and for good reason. People like me suffer from violence every day in the middle east and europe is actively importing massive numbers of immigrants into our place of living who more often than not hold opinions completely different than what I would call „western values“ - and they are much closer to actively showing violence against gay people than the natives who hold „moral conflictions“.

Attacks on gay people are on the rise and whereas gay people had no problem holding hands or showing affection out in the open even in Germany 15 years ago, they are much more cautious now.
Same paper you are. This is comparing apples to oranges. Their "random" strategy is only capable of assembling very constrained python programs whereas the LLM is coming up with things that look like the sort of stuff a person might write, utilizing the whole language (modulo hallucinatory nonsense). So it's not a reasonable comparison at all.

Instead, for the purpose of making something resembling a reasonable comparison, it would make a lot more sense to train an LLM on programs written in the same language they allow their "random" strategy to use. I wouldn't recommend trying this in python, as it's way too big a language. Something smaller and more fit for purpose would likely be much more tractable. There are multiple examples from the literature to choose from.

EDIT: To be clear--it's obvious the LLM solution outperformed the hand-rolled solution. By a large margin. What would actually be an interesting scientific question, though, is to what extent is the success attributable to the LLM? That's not possible to answer given the results, because the hand rolled-solution and the LLM solution are literally speaking different languages.

Sorry, this article isn't worth reading.
The analysis done here is worth nothing - it's just dumping the firmware and running an automated tool to find known vulnerabilities.

Those chinese IP cameras have far more interesting vulnerabilities that are worth discussing, but this article is completely ignoring them.

For example, these cameras generally expose themselves to the internet, phone back home in HTTP and have backdoors in multiple places (e.g: root credentials [1], web interface backdoors and such)

On top of that, the SOC is not introduced and the author just says "ESP-based chip". I really doubt this camera is using an Espressif chip: Espressif is not used for video processing. If I had to guess, it's probably a Goke chip, or one of the many vendors mentioned in OpenIPC supported HW page [2].

Scientists working with a potentially dangerous technology are required to be able to avoid a conflict that could be catastrophic for all of humanity. In this case, they cannot excuse themselves with "imminence," but must provide evidence of safety stronger than in any other technology to date. This rational approach is mandatory for them, it is ordinary people who may be willing to take the risk.
The same technology Beeper Mini uses to get onto iCloud can also be used by spammers, crooks, etc. to get onto iCloud. You either get both or none. Frankly, as a paying Apple customer, I want them to close this because I hate SPAM. Also, the obsession of iMessage seems very strange to me.

When it comes to identifying security vulnerabilities, various methods come into play. Vulnerability scanners scrutinize both the software running on a system and the hardware settings. These tools rely on a central repository of known vulnerabilities to detect any instances of these weaknesses.

In software testing, the focus often centers on version numbers, which signal the installation of updates. One of the primary recommendations from cybersecurity experts is to maintain up-to-date operating systems and software packages, thereby enhancing security.

Any lapses in web application security can create opportunities for malicious actors to compromise application integrity, disrupt functionality, and jeopardize user credentials. A systematic approach involving security testing is essential to fortify these digital gateways. Such testing serves as a critical defense mechanism, enabling the detection of security weaknesses and vulnerabilities in live applications while reducing the likelihood of cyber threats.

Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) aims to spot security vulnerabilities in real time while the application is active. It is a security measure within contemporary software delivery pipelines. Within this article, we will take you on a comprehensive journey through the dynamic application security testing process, step by step.

If the transpiler is not breaking any defined behavior in C, there is no reason to believe it cannot be a perfectly reasonable solution. There is nothing inherently wrong with targeting another programming language when compiling code, it does not mean there is anything wrong or broken with the generated code or its semantics.

It is a less battle-tested C compiler, sure, but it's a C compiler. IMO, you can't argue that something shouldn't be called sqlite because it contains a transpiled copy of sqlite. To me this isn't really substantially different from transpiling sqlite to JS using Emscripten.

The waste is sorted by type e.g. if it contains heavy metal salts versus nasty organics. Quite a lot of this is recycled. Heavy metal concentrates are cheaper to refine than fresh ore; quite a few labs sell their waste to companies that extract the underlying metals. Nasty organics are often incinerated, which renders them harmless.

There is an entire industry around optimally managing chem lab waste. It doesn’t go to the landfill unless it has been thoroughly processed for both value and toxicity. Industrial chemistry is a low-margin business, companies extract every bit of value from their waste stream that they can.

Well, I'm out of my depth, but it doesn't seem entirely inaccurate to say their their node advantage allowed them to sort of throw lots of hardware (transistors) at the problem.

https://www.anandtech.com/show/16226/apple-silicon-m1-a14-de...

What really defines Apple’s Firestorm CPU core
from other designs in the industry is just the
sheer width of the microarchitecture. Featuring
an 8-wide decode block, Apple’s Firestorm is by
far the current widest commercialized design in
the industry.

For a list of relative transistor counts among CPUs:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transistor_count

Perhaps more to the point, I think the onus would be on somebody who claims Apple is doing something uniquely spectacular with their chips, other than simply capitalizing on a massive transistor count and power efficiency advantage made possible by their node advantage.

By the way, I'm not knocking what Apple has achieved. I recently upgraded from an 2018 Intel MBP to a 2021 M1 Max MBP. And, holy smokes. This thing is fast and it is effortlessly fast. I have been running all 10 cores pretty hard for the job I'm currently doing. I am absolutely beyond impressed.

But, from an engineering standpoint, it's definitely worth wrapping our heads around what Apple has and has not achieved here. I don't think they have any magic fairy dust or special sauce.

Receipt of the signals is not a crime though. Using them to watch live TV without a license is.

And my point is that the answer to "why do I have to pay if I don't use..." is that it's a tax. It's not a commercial decision it's taxing something to raise revenue to be spent on a public service.

Agreed, PPEs are often badly designed, often excessively expensive and often not conveniently accessible when needed but I've always taken the view that wearing them is the lesser of two evils. Silicosis and especially mesothelioma are truly evil diseases so I'm surprised so many who are at high risk of exposure aren't worried about them.

You say PPEs have bad side effects but as I've mentioned those whom I've asked never explain what they are. Why? And why are they undocumented?

Re sucking dust away, active air pressure masks etc., I agree they're a good idea and ought to mandatory in many environments. I accept sucking dust away as the norm on my table saws and planers etc. but even so I still wear a mask (although not an active pressure one) as the sucking up is not 100% effective. Also, what happens in environments where it is not practical to suck away dust such as a stonemason working up on the side of a building or such? The only solution has to be PPEs.
Exactly. Most office workers don't really have a choice. Someone in the corporate hierarchy decided to get the Office 365 subscription because that way everything would come bundled up together.
The purpose of the ablation is to demonstrate the value-add of using an LLM. Comparing to another type of candidate generator wouldn’t be ablation anymore, it would just be another study.

As I have mentioned previously, using an LLM addresses the cold start problem by immediately generating plausible-looking programs. The reason random token selection is limited to constrained programs is that valid programs are statistically unlikely to occur.

And the ablation directly demonstrates that the LLM is better than random.

> helm is at it's best when you need to _publicly distribute_ a complex application

I would say, helm is at it's best when you need to _publicly distribute_ a complex application, AND the majority of the users on the receiving end don't care about the complexity.

You don't need Helm if your manifests are simple. But when your manifests become complex, helm will make it even more complex by turning each field in the plain k8s manifests into a toggle in a values.yaml file.
Maybe it's POSIX that is holding new developments back because people think it's good enough. It's not '60s anymore.
I would have expected to have totally new paradigms in 2023 if you asked me 23 years ago. Even NT kernel seems more modern.

While POSIX was state of the art when it was invented, it shouldn't be today.

Lots of research was thrown in recycle bin because "Hey, we have POSIX, why reinvent the wheel?", up to the point that nobody wants to do operating systems research today, because they don't want their hard work to get thrown into the same recycle bin.

I think that people who invented POSIX were innovators and have they live today, they would come with a totally new paradigm, more fit to today's needs and knowledge.
The same shit as always, patents and copyright.
Yeah, there are studies that have been done on this. It's called the 'relative age effect'. It can have an effect into adulthood as well, when a one-year age difference may be less significant. This is because in their earlier years, the children who are a half-year older and more developed will generally see more success, thus getting more opportunities to play, thus getting more practice and coaching, thus leading to more success, etc...

(For more info, see this article [0]. Interestingly from that article, and I didn't know this before today, younger athletes in their cohort who make it to the later stages of their sport are more likely to be "super elite" athletes, probably because they were able to overcome the challenges of playing with bigger athletes in their childhood years.)

That's nice of you, but by all accounts from the US (where iphone is dominant): Yes, it's a problem. The visual marking and decreased integration/service towards users of non-iphones is pretty obviously part of why Apple has such a big phone market share in the US - if not, they wouldn't fight tooth and nail to keep those anti-features. There's plenty of examples of Apple being quite open and friendly to integration when it benefits them, and here they aren't, so it isn't.
