I hope collaborative workflows get a lot of attention. I haven't used IDA teams or anything, but a reverse engineering experience that felt as frictionless as Google Docs would be amazing.
Oh, I agree, Apple did ultimately make use of those technologies. They built on those ideas, but the again so did lots of others.

I'm not suggesting Apple didn't (ultimately) embrace those technologies, but rather that they weren't the "driving force" behind them. Whereas you could say Apple was the "driving force" of the GUI.

Microsoft would go on to drive Office software. There were word processors, and spreadsheets before Office, but Office integrated all those tools together and became the gold standard.

Adobe would drive desktop publishing, PDF and so on.

Sooo much of today's world is built on PARC, SRI, Bell Labs, and a couple others. It was an explosion of development and research seldom seen in any field outside times of war.
For scripting, our approach is to give you access to the project file (just a YAML file), and you can make changes from any scripting language you want. Everything the user can customize is in there, all the rest is deterministically produced from that file.

I really disliked the fact that you usually need to buy into the version of Python that $TOOL requires you to use, or the fact itself that you need to use a specific language.

Can parse YAML? You're mostly done.

The "project file" is what we call the model: https://docs.rev.ng/user-manual/model-tutorial/

For xrefs, CFG and the rest: we have all of that in the UI, but we also produce them in a rich way. For instance, when we emit disassembly and decompiled code, we actually emit plain text + HTML-like markup to provide metainformation for navigation (basically, xrefs) and highlighting. So you can use all that from any language that can parse HTML/XML.
It's called PTML: https://docs.rev.ng/references/ptml/

For lifting: we use LLVM IR as our internal representation. This means that: 1) you don't have to learn an IR that no one else uses, 2) you can use off the shelf tools (e.g., KLEE for symbolic execution) but you can also use all the standard LLVM optimizations and analyses and 3) you can recompile it, but we're not into the binary translation business anymore.
I thought of that but if it can’t handle that for a second then I can’t rely on it for prepping purposes.
The media has swapped into repulsive but predictable propaganda mode over the attack. However, as a result, more facts are coming out. And those facts suggest that nothing significant was shared beyond the travel advisory. From a recent NYTimes article [1]:

---

"Aleksandr V. Bortnikov, the director of the F.S.B., emphasized Tuesday in public comments that the information the United States provided was “of a general nature.” “We reacted to this information, of course, and took appropriate measures,” he said, noting that the actions the F.S.B. took to follow up on the tip didn’t confirm it.

The adversarial relationship between Washington and Moscow prevented U.S. officials from sharing any information about the plot beyond what was necessary, out of fear Russian authorities might learn their intelligence sources or methods.

In its March 7 public warning, the U.S. embassy said the risk of a concert venue attack in Moscow was acute for the next 48 hours. U.S. officials say it’s possible Russian authorities pushed hard around the 48-hour warning period but later grew more relaxed and distrustful when an attack didn’t occur."

It is unclear whether U.S. intelligence mistook the timing of the attack or the extremists delayed their plan upon seeing heightened security.

It's amusing contrasting the very few facts the article provides, buried deep within it, with the framing, implications, and non sequiturs scattered through the first 60% of the article. Irrefutable and undeniable [2], all over again.

Yes, they can prove ownership of an art peace but can not prove the art peace even exists.
What do you mean, "ineffective"? They kill civilians, or paramilitary leaders in civilian areas, to remind everyone in the region that their civilians are on the line if they transgress too heavily against US policy.

What do you mean by Assad "complete victory"? Syria is devastated, something like ten million people are food insecure, the country is occupied by both other countries and militias.

What do you mean by "proxy"? Does your definition imply that the ukrainian army is a "proxy"?

What do you mean by "Houthi missile strikes"? It's the de facto government of Yemen engaged in a blockade against Israel, which is composed by more groups than the Ansar Allah. It is also quite popular due to its position against the genocidal colonial governments of the US, UK, Israel and so on.

Edit: I now realise that "and so on" could be interpreted to include the UAE which is occupying part of Yemen together with Israel, which is not the case. At the moment Yemen is not directly engaged against the UAE, presumably because its leadership considers a future arab peace more important and the US-israeli influence a driving factor in the UAE transgressing against Yemen.

SBF is an archetypical pathological liar combined with an ego the size of the empire state building.

He's gotten away his entire life lying for a living all the while looking down on people around him for being his supposed intellectual inferiors.

He's gotten so used to operating in that regime that he couldn't stop doing it even when in court, not realizing he was fighting for his life.

The only thing that's "endearing" about a person like this is that he probably belongs in some sort of psychological re-education program.
I would say "story mode" in papers is like dancing about your doctorate: really cool when the combination works, but the latter is where all the value lies, so it shouldn't sacrifice anything for the former.

What about LLM C, which takes a set of papers as vertices, forms an abstract simplex of all their combinations, and then spits out new papers on the ten most interesting higher-dimensional faces?
"While ministers debate reducing benefits to boost incentives"

It really takes some brass balls to float this as a solution to the 'problem' of incentivizing people to work, and keep a straight moral face. How about increasing wages to something livable, maybe via extending benefits into employment?
Hem... A small notes: we do not consume water, we move it, eventually dirtying clean water, since it's an universal solvent.

This means: farmers suck water out of a river, let's say for cattle, they drink and piss locally. IF they are too concentrate they burn the ground due to excess ammonia, otherwise they fertilize ground, ground release the water part filtering it.

Starting to understand the water cycle and the fact ONLY SOME chemicals are really harmful and nature can't filter them cleanly, like PFAS or surfactants, witch happen to be man-made... The rest is a matter of concentration, like any substance: without oxygen we die, with too much oxygen we die as well.

> A U.S. visa program for skilled foreign workers has long stoked concerns over American workers losing their jobs to lower-paid foreigners. Now a group of experienced American professionals is accusing an Indian outsourcing giant of firing them on short notice and filling many of their roles with workers from India on H1-B visas.

> The American workers say that India’s Tata Consultancy Services illegally discriminated against them based on their race and age, firing them and shifting some of their work to lower-paid Indian immigrants on temporary work visas.

> Since late December, at least 22 workers have filed complaints with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission against TCS, whose clients have included dozens of the U.S.’s biggest firms.

> The American former TCS employees are Caucasians, Asian-Americans and Hispanic Americans ranging in age from their 40s to their 60s and living in more than a dozen U.S. states. Many have master’s of business administration or other advanced degrees, according to the complaints, which were reviewed by The Wall Street Journal.

> The former TCS workers say that, despite years of positive reviews and often bonuses for their work for clients in areas such as finance, operations and supply-chain management, they were abruptly taken off projects last year.

> In their complaints, the former employees cite comments that TCS’s global human resources head Milind Lakkad made in an interview with Indian media last year. He said TCS is trying to reduce the number of Americans it employs in the U.S. and would like to provide more opportunities to Indians there, according to the report.

> One former worker said in a complaint that TCS human-resources staff told employees in an all-hands meeting that the company planned to use money saved by closing down a unit that employed many of the American workers to provide jobs to more Indian nationals in the U.S.
Analog suffers from noise? What do you think you get when you convert analog to digital? Way more loss of signal than whatever inbuilt noise the analog signal had in the first place.
Consciousness, at its simplest, is awareness of internal and external existence. In the past, it was one's "inner life", the world of introspection, of private thought, imagination and volition. Today, it often includes any kind of cognition, experience, feeling or perception. It may be awareness, awareness of awareness, or self-awareness either continuously changing or not.

Actually, working for DOD programs has several advantages:

1) The pay is pretty good. It's not FAANG-level pay, but it's generally better than non-FAANG pay, without so much competition.

2) The work-life balance is excellent, as long as it's in a place you want to live. No 80-hour weeks, as overtime is generally prohibited unless approved by the customer (and then you get overtime pay). Time is tracked and paid by the government on an hourly basis, so they don't allow overtime unless necessary. No unpaid "exempt" overtime.

3) Generally stable employment. It's hard to find people with a security clearance, so it's hard to get fired unless you're a really poor performer. You probably don't have to worry about dealing with stack ranking unlike many regular jobs.

Isn't Blackwell meant to be training oriented? And being able to run inference on the same architecture is a nice bonus?

Groq is only inference. Of course, if you build an ASIC specifically to run inference, it's going to be faster and more efficient. But things are moving so fast that by the time Groq gets any kind of market share, perhaps newer models will not be compatible with the ASIC?

Can anyone speak to this?

Also, swyx did a cost analysis between Groq vs H100 here: https://twitter.com/swyx/status/1760065636410274162

The cost advantage of Groq doesn't seem like it's worth switching over. It needs to be 10x better in cost to get companies to make the huge effort to switch?

Most equations that can be solved can already be solved symbolically by things like mathematica or numerically by a grab-bag of numerical techniques that every maths, engineering and physics student learns at some point. You don't need to have found the solution to P vs NP to do any of that.

I think most mathematicians would say that most of maths is not in solving equations because once you get the right equations, solving them is a simple mechanical process for the most part. Most of maths is figuring out what the right equations are in the first place and proving that what you have done is legitimate.

Decades ago, I struggled with the start of a math class as a young engineering student until one professor, one day, said, "It's easy to calculate how many feet of steel you need to get from point A to point B but what if you need to calculate the number of feet for the curved support under the Eads' bridge?" He then proceeded to show how it's done and everything sunk in after that.

Likely, they use some authenticated hash like HMAC SHA-256 with a schedule of randomly chosen keys added periodically. (Can't really rotate out keys once generated.) GFL reversing the algorithm AND any working key.

Also, an "is it used" database has to be kept to prevent an analog replay attack by reusing the same barcode. The most efficient way to keep track of used stamps would be a bloom filter. A poor implementation would lead to false positives, and mailers being accused of fraud. It also has should be highly reliable, highly available, and geographically disperse.

People have been forced to eat other people in dire situations. If a lot of people got into a situation like that, they will take what they need through whatever means necessary. That is what it means. No need to pretend I'm saying all humans are criminals, but it's how it is.

If inequality gets to the stage where there was 1 million starving people, or a billionaire who owns a lot of farm land with food on it, I'm pretty sure the 1 million are going to take some of the farm land and food. Maybe all of it.

Is it the starving, or the one who does not share the actual criminal?

The law should be enforced but if things became severely skewed towards protecting a few and letting the rest suffer, then I think the law needs to be adapted. Maybe through taxation or something else.

Is that a difficult concept to grasp?

I don’t think so.

By default the feature set is pretty comprehensive though: RX coverage from 100khz through 512mhz with native ssb, cw filter, am and of course nfm & wfm. GPS plus various features on top of that like track logging. Dstar. A packet TNC built in. It exposed IF over usb for use with an SDR. I used it for satellite work a lot of the time (since tx was limited to vhf & uhf), it didn’t have full duplex like the 2 generations prior kenwood which I forget the model number of.

You could easily defend against this sort of tracking by living in a "15-minute" city, but you might wish to give up the habit of carrying your phone everywhere.

(and for the truly paranoid, as pointed out earlier on HN, there's gait analysis)

(those who are tinfoil paranoid about being tracked by jurisdictions well removed from their local jurisdiction might wish to choose someplace urban with many passageways under roads and between buildings, or even better, subways?)
I’m sorry, why does it matter that no one has died on an American carrier for a while? Not so long ago, Boeing sent over 300 people to their deaths with their shoddy MCAS scheme. It’s pure chance that this didn’t happen in the USA so I’m not sure I understand the relevance of the nationalities of the deceased.

You'd probably save time if you directly suggest what income metric you want to use. In the video, Buffet is basically saying he cares about income after interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation. In other words, that he cares about actual income. That'd be very on-brand for Buffet.

That measure won't be good for MongoDB Inc. either; they've been millions in the red for years. Losing $100 million in a year would be the best result they've achieved in a while now.

Well, yeah, its mostly a bad plan, because while it can block competition with your code, it doesn’t block substitution with other code that provides the same function, and if you aren’t one of the big cloud providers, competing in the same function market with bundled services from the big cloud providers, whether or not it is the same underlying code, is the actual problem you face when your monetization is based around “sell a hosted service”.

I'd argue that if it confuses the user it's not inconsequential. And also, something can be both innovative and at the same time have room for improvement. Companies are literally chasing down user feedback.

A user's feedback is one of the best things that can ever happen to your program, the worst is to never ever get used by anyone, and the second worse is to have the users walk away with no idea why.
