Yeah, I should have added a line clarifying that I'm unsure about the exact case of Apple, but even so, Jobs definitely had collaborators on the modern iteration who - again - do not get appropriate credit or financial compensation.

The point is that this is a general problem that falls out of the structure of our economy and business enterprises. And it's one that's fixable with a little societal refactoring (changing the laws around business structures and how they're formed).
Lots of instances block Threads too. That's how it works.
I think the issues with server blocks are mainly related to the way administrators use them to settle personal beefs or play a nuclear negotiation game with other admins who they want to impose their moderation policies on. "Moderate my way or you'll all be defederated."

Mastodon administrators aren't "faceless corporations," they are people with as many personality flaws and weaknesses as your coworkers or any other group of techies you didn't get to choose to work with. Some of them are Machiavellian narcissists, who want to decide how the entire network functions - and they're not afraid to use their ability to sever social connections with unaware users as a negotiating tool.
Does the laptop also prevent wireless tethering to your phone? Turning your phone into a hotspot is pretty trivial, at least on iOS. I often have to do it due to similarly arcane security configuration settings on my work laptop.
PC is an abbreviation of Personal Computer. The processor is irrelevant.

What if I want to compute the average altitude? This requires adding altitudes.
Not unless Qualcomm Oryon manages to match Apple M1 performance levels for less than a Ryzen/Intel mobile CPU.
You have to admit, “secret Apple sauce” does sound rather tasty.
Merry Christmas, welcome.

Doesn't it usually go the other way? Bladder capacity goes down with age, so as you get older you find yourself needing to pee more times a day, but the time needed for a given pee break is less.
I'd love to see a comparison between Chata and Glicol (https://glicol.org/)

So, as a contrived example, with RAG you make some queries, in some format, like “Who is Sauron?” And then start feeding in what books he’s mentioned in, paragraphs describing him from Tolkien books, things he has done.

Then you start making more specific queries? How old is he, how tall is he, etc.

And the game is you run a “questionnaire AI” that can look at a blob of text, and you ask it “what kind of questions might this paragraph answer”, and then turn around and feed those questions and text back into the system.

Is that a 30,000 foot view really of how this works?
Interesting then! Makes sense. Thanks for the explanation.
Is it a low price that will give them a cut, or is it high enough to be an effective deterrent?
It is more layered than that. The work machine initiates a VPN automatically at login. Once that VPN is up, all traffic goes through the VPN, including DNS. It will actively ignore/block anything that isn't coming from the VPN. So we do tricks to get to the hotel splash page before the VPN software wakes up. These are corporately-managed windows machines. The boot/login process isn't exactly quick.
It's an odd omission that the "feminist server" mentioned is actually a gathering place for TERFs, after they were banned from places like Reddit. If your community is problematic enough to be kicked off of Reddit, I can imagine your users/content may not be desirable to Meta/Threads' brand, either.
I’ve often wondered if writing on a CD/DVD with a Sharpie had an effect on the reflective layer, as I remember back in the day there were special markers for writing on these disks. Like the author though, I have perfectly serviceable optical media in some cases over 20 years old so perhaps those pens were just another attempt to sell me something I didn’t know I didn’t need!
Basements too, in the case of Armadillidiidae (pill bugs).
The current line of Mac OS has its roots in NeXTSTEP which started on a Motorola 68030 with MMU, and then also ran on HP PA-RISC, SPARC and Intel 386.
When Apple later transitioned from PowerPC to x86, it was rumoured that they had been maintaining the x86 port all along.
At the time of the M1 launch, Apple's chips preformed more instructions per clock cycle than Intel or AMD chips.

> 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.

They also ran the clocks slower for power efficiency.
If something has value of its own, then it will be purchased regardless of whether other unrelated products are or aren't purchased.

Thus, in order for people who don't find iPhones particularly valuable to contribute zero market share to the independent market for phone software, it can only be the case that phone software has no value.
> Moderate my way or you'll all be defederated.

And it's a feature, too. The users trust their administration team with their presence on a given instance and actually defer their moderation choices to them - something that's impossible on other, centralized platforms. If a moderator of an instance serves the moderation wishes of the users of that instance, and everyone on that instance is happy, then what's the problem?
At an old workplace (Traditional engineering consultancy) we used it to show prospective and current customers walkthroughs of their projects.

Take a revit model, add some textures and you've got a great demo.
China also would have invested heavily in EVs regardless of Tesla. They simply don’t have much oil, and importing it is a huge national security problem for them. Couple that with their huge pollution problem and tons of cars even with lots of mass transit options, EVs were inevitable and already coming along before the model 3 came out.
Yes, this is part of the story of how SPR achieves this.

So the hostapd configuration for SPR has the following components:
- ap_isolate=1
- per_sta_vif=1
- unique passphrases for devices
- firewall rules

ap_isolate stops the AP from doing L2 forwarding between clients using the pairwise keys. the per_sta_vif=1 will also ensure that each client has a unique GTK so they can't use group key encryption to communicate without the AP.

Next, unique passphrases are used. Without this, it's possible for a malicious device to decrypt WPA2 traffic passively or spin up a Rogue AP to capture traffic from peers.

And lastly -- firewall rules with default deny connect devices by policy.

That ap_isolate alone is not enough is kind of interesting, as it's possible to instead push packets to the router that will then forward to the client destination. Most off the shelf routers have forwarding on without a default deny policy, enabling this. The subtlety here is the attacker uses the router as the L2 destination instead of the other wireless client. At the very least attackers can send UDP packets to bypass the intended isolation. This bypass is especially powerful when changing mediums between Wireless and Wired as the Wired victim receiving packets will be responding back to the router, and on many consumer routers a full TCP connection will be possible then.
Since when is Meta failing? They have something like 90% marketshare of a >$10 billion market with ~75 million users.

The big splash with the Quest 3 is the passthrough features. 7 of the top 20 Meta Quest apps are mixed reality apps within months of the product's launch.

I think we can't call the state of the market decided when true mixed reality is just now getting off the ground.

I think we also can't determine that the market is drying up for Meta when 2023's hardware sales drop happened in a year where basically all the available hardware on the market is growing long in the tooth. Harware sales always drop for old consoles - look at the last two years of Nintendo Switch sales.

IMO Sony doesn't have a clue about what they're doing with VR (or portable consoles for that matter) while Meta, Valve, and Apple seem to understand what their customers want.
Hey, GPT Researcher shows exactly how to do that with RAG. See here https://github.com/assafelovic/gpt-researcher
I have a _small_ e-commerce company and we have >300GB. Most of that bulk is photos and videos though, but in an ideal world I’d like my AI assistant to find that stuff too: “I’m making a Boxing Day ad campaign. Can you show me the ads that we’ve made in previous years and all of the photos that we’ve taken of our new Reindeer and Elf designs?”
As with Apple, Qualcomm claims so be faster than x86. This is true on the synthetic single core Geekbench benchmark compared to a 2019 Intel cpu. Today the Qualcomm beats the m3 in Geek-bench and the current amd 7940hs.

But for real applications the 7940Hs, beats the Qualcomm even on Cinnebench Single core and multicore
That fact sounds like it will become fiction very very soon. :\
Yes, the idea is that it runs equally slow with massive RAM useage independent of platform.
That's amusing since the UK tax year runs from April to April
Given that months have varying amounts of days, does it even make sense to have both dollars/month and dollars/day in the same setting? I would figure you would use either one or the other.
I have a 35W AMD 5750GE (zen 3, 8c16t), along with M1, M1 Max and M2 Pro devices - the AMD processor and M1/M2 chips trade blows depending on workload.

It’s absolutely possible to get x86_64 to the same power/performance envelope as apple’s M series chips :)
The compiler has to assume that I+10 won’t overflow by virtue of I never being big enough. So, it’ll emit all of the code and UB won’t come into play.

It’s more like this. If you say A[I] where I is 32 bit signed and you’re on a 64 bit target, then this lowers to:

- sign extend I to get a 64-bit value

- multiply it by the size of A’s element type

- add that to A

- then do the access

The last three steps will be just one instruction in the common case on arm and x86. The first step will require a separate instruction on x86.

The compiler can kill the sign extend if it’s sure that the integer value cannot be negative. That’s hard to prove. But you can almost prove it if you see code like:

for (int i = 0; something; ++i)

It looks like i starts out as zero and only grows! So it has to be positive! So if you say A[i] then no sign extend needed!

But wait, what if ++i overflows?

With signed int UB, the compiler can just assume it won’t overflow. And then it can prove that i is nonnegative. And then it can kill the sign extend on those CPUs where it’s not free, like x86.

I’m a compiler writer. I know how valuable this optimization is. Namely, it’s the tiniest of benefits on some program/CPU combos. Modern languages like Java or Swift just give this well defined semantics and call it a day because this isn’t a good hill to die on. Fucking up the language isn’t worth 0.3% on some stupid benchmark, period.
Mach was created at CMU, and later development moved to the University of Utah. This work became the basis of the NeXT operating system, which then turned into Mac OSX.

So I'd call this a "viable reality".

PS -- I think you meant "GNU/Hurd", not "GNU Mach".
Is Q the answer to this whole thread? People are talking about AWS Bedrock but that seems like something a startup would build upon and offer something like Q, eh?
> It just has cycles of popularity

Agreed, but those cycles are measured in decades, not months. VR had its last hype cycle in the 90's, and AI in the 80's and thus will the wheel of reincarnation continue to spin with VR and AI switching places until the sun dies ;)

Even x86 PCs have long since dropped any pretenses of having native back-compat with the legacy "IBM PC" platform.
This system solves the "safe space problem" and the "free speech problem" at the same time if only both sides could recognize it.
It works surprisingly well for x86 electron apps. It's kind of amazing how fast and bug free it is, in general.
These days, Mumps is mostly used in elderly systems in the insurance and banking industries. In my case it is banking. I work at Capital One and one of the financial cores we use is Profile from FIS, which is (at least in older versions) built in Mumps.
The implicit bias is right there in the title, "Who Gets to Work From Home."
As if WFH is a reward given to good little boys and girls instead of a business decision with nuanced rationale and its own set of management challenges that need to be understood in order to be successfully implemented.

The article also completely ignores the upsides of reduced traffic and commute times, less exposure to (potentially sick) coworkers, longer term increases in urban housing availability, etc. that WFH provides to those whose jobs still require their physical presence.

They started with the conclusion and are trying to work back from there.
Going say 62 km/h does not feel that different than going 50 km/h, but can result in a sizable fine in many countries.
Yes, but unless you have a phone with two wifi connections then you will have to use your cellphone's data plan rather than the hotel wifi. When traveling, doing a teleconference or having your work laptop perform a windows update over your cellphone data connection isn't cheap. We used to just tether to our work phones, but they locked that down after seeing the international roaming bills.
This is bizarre.

The conversation in the blog post presumes a certain shared understanding of the facts. When you push a conversation out of a context of shared assumptions or understandings, then you are going to have to expect push back. I don't think that says anything bad about HN here. All you are getting is feedback on what a large segment of people think. In some alternative world they may have agreed with those background beliefs, and then the pushback would not have occurred (or it might have pointed in another direction).

If the article had approached its central question--whether to tell people or not--by first saying something like "suppose that we knew the civilization is going to collapse in the next ten years, the question arises: should we tell people?", it could have avoided more of the pushback it received.

Yes, although it is part of our upsell and not in the core FOSS project. We need to update our documentation to be more clear as we have been getting this question more often.
Others have said that RAG is only good up to a few 100s of files, eh? And since this is based on IndexLlama which is RAG-based, this would have the same limitation, eh?
The author's baseless accusations wrapped in snark sounds incredibly petty.

Given this is how the instance admin handles defederation, preemptive defederation of this network makes sense.

I believe privileged access management is the proper way to manage access to a password protected systems.

It is basically a terminal server, proxy, bastion or anything similar. You log in there with federated identity (for example AD) and it logs you in into target system with some shared or temporary user. Usually it also records session and does other security/compliance related things.

Examples are Delinea (former Thycotic), CyberArk, To some extent Apache Guacamole can be used as PAM.

https://www.quora.com/Apple-company/How-does-Apple-keep-secr... Is very interesting reading on the x86 port of Mac OS.
In what way were Apple behind on performance at the end of the Intel era? They were shipping the same chips as everyone else and were getting similar performance and battery benchmarks as other brands (Dell, HP) in that same generation of processor.
You might be imagining a server full of spam and Nazis, totally unmoderated except for compliance with basic laws, when you think of a server block. I am talking about a case such as where an admin had an argument with one user on another server and then blocked the entire server as a negotiation tactic to force the user's admin to ban them. The users on the Machiavellian admin's server didn't know this was happening because server blocks show up in the form of mysterious disappeances of some of your friends.

The free market argument for the belief that everything an admin does is necessarily good if they still have any users left after they do it is flawed, because users do not know all that much about what their admins are doing, and don't have a way of knowing whether a server they're thinking about switching to is better or worse.
How long do you typically spend under the goggles? Back when I played Elite Dangerous in VR, 4..5hr sessions were completely exhausting. I since switched back to traditional head tracking for flight simming (although I have to admit that at least for helicopter landings the spatial awareness and depth perception in VR is extremely useful - but it's just too damn exhausting).
I have no idea what's going on in the footnote, but deploying SSH keys on Cisco equipment is like 3 commands (conf t, user x, ssh something something) to deploy public keys, not hard at all.
Too bloated. The ultimate goal will be "planck" with zero lines of code. :-)
Five cautionary tales of business leadership in 2023

Webb's orbit is represented in this screenshot from our deployment video (below), roughly to scale; it is actually similar in size to the Moon's orbit around the Earth! This orbit (which takes Webb about 6 months to complete once) keeps the telescope out of the shadows of both the Earth and Moon.

In two sentences you’ve captured what I love about HN. Thank you.
What about supercollider?
It sounds way too high because the claim itself is weird. It doesn't claim that arm cores are faster than x86 cores outright, but rather they're faster if you normalize by clock cycle. Also depending on the benchmark chosen, you get very different results. If you combine the two factors the claim is probably true.

> single earthquake took out the ENTIRE Japanese reactor fleet for many years.

Comically incorrect.

The Tsunami took out a single reactor.

Human overreaction took out the rest of the reactors. Just like human overreaction took out Germany's accident-free, reliable and cost-effective reactor fleet.

> Japan" here means "the Japanese nuclear industry".

Incorrect. The elected Japanese government.

> "3-fold" also means, that they just want to restart some of the old reactors.

Interesting interpretation of the 3-fold commitment from Japan. I doubt it's actually a correct interpretation.

Let's see:

"Japan adopted a plan on Thursday to extend the lifespan of nuclear reactors, replace the old and even build new ones, ..."

https://www.npr.org/2022/12/22/1144990722/japan-nuclear-powe...

"Build new ones." Guess your interpretation wasn't correct. And that's just one country out of the 22 who signed the pledge. And a bunch didn't sign but are also expanding at a similar rate, for example India and China.

Germany's phase out has been a great advertisement for nuclear power.
> why are you buying an electric car in the first place

When you compare the current Model 3 feature-wise to most other brands, it's a no brainer. You need to fork out a lot more than 50k to get the assist and safety features, leather seats, seat heating, power seats, cameras, sound system, heated steering wheel, matrix headlights, backseat control screen, 4wd, performance and so on. Not having to deal with sales people and regular maintenance are bonuses.

And if you're in Europe, you charge it a home or on street parking with no hassle of going to a charging/gas station.
Sorry, I forgot to emphasize that after that 2018 Ars article was written [1], the security of their machines has improved, I think. The wiki article has more details [2], so one can't say they're neglecting security. Even so, the security is nowhere close to the absurd level needed when faced with an attacker capable of dopant-level hardware backdoors. Anyone who's read reflections on trusting trust [3,4] knows how near-impossible computer security is. And that's with trustworthy hardware!
