Why would they need to be auditable? That's not in any of the laws I've read, and in fact as you note, the law makes that impossible. If the law contradicts a requirement that you made up, and does not itself contain that requirement, then why would you presume that it has that requirement?

There's literally no reason to have e.g. a knowledge based auth or signed id request hit disk. It doesn't need to be saved for a "short time". It doesn't need to be saved on permanent storage at all.

"Let's assume for a moment that the law says the opposite of what it actually says". But it doesn't.

It's easy for the government to investigate whether you check IDs: open the site and see if you request ID information. Present fake info and see if you accept it. Just like they do in person.

https://klikkentheke.com/ is just a plain white page for me. Maybe it requires jQuery to render, but it's loading that from a Google domain (which I block by default). It's also running a couple third-party trackers.

By not being minimal, it's it's more "minimal" than they intended.

I have no clue about this paper. Only comment is that this was published April 1st.
To be fair, the cover of the single actually does say “Sex Pistols”, the former Sex Pistols producer was sued successfully for being misleading. I was successfully mislead. There’s your weird music lore for the day.
Since it is in the context of a panegyric, it should not be taken as a literal theological statement, but as poetic language. However, I would agree that it is some reverberation of the emperor cult, even 68 years after the Edict of Thessalonica.

Note also that Roman emperors could be given the epithet "Divus" ("the divine") after their death well into the Christian era. The German Wikipedia has a list: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divus Although Theodisus II is not included, there appear two East-Roman emperors after him: Leo (†474) and Anastasius (†518).
Both Katran[1] by Facebook and Unimog[2] by Cloudflare are L4 load balancers written using XDP. It's factually incorrect to claim that XDP is useless on servers as many companies intentionally choose to design their systems around commodity hardware.

Witnessing defects means that they exist; witnessing no defects does not mean they don't.
I have no idea why you think that explains anything. It is just saying that fuzzing is a inferior substitute for formal methods, but much cheaper and thus a more cost-effective option. That is totally divorced from literally any point I have ever made anywhere.

Formal verification is a known mechanism for establishing highly secure systems. It is not the only way. But it is a way that is known to work. A certification process that demands formal verification and practical penetration testing by the NSA is, as far as we know, a highly effective means of identifying a high security system designed to protect against state actors. It may generate false negatives, but it is highly unlikely to generate false positives.

In contrast, extrapolation from processes used by systems that are known to be insecure and security procedures that have never once produced systems that can do things like withstand a practical penetration test by the NSA are highly speculative at best. You must not only do them, you must then generate empirical evidence of security against highly sophisticated and well-funded adversaries, such as practical penetration tests by highly competent red teams, before you can determine if your theories are correct. Anybody who has never achieved success against such adversaries has no business dictating forward looking strategy.

As to your assertion that a highly secure fully functional OS can not be developed and scaled out. Then you must either believe that it is okay to connect nuclear power plants and medical devices to the internet with insecure systems or that we must not connect and disconnect all safety-critical systems from the internet. We can not have it both ways. We must either solve the problem technologically or socially, the alternative is catastrophe. You can advocate unproven techniques that have failed for everybody who has ever tried them, but I prefer to advocate using techniques that are empirically known to work and building from there up to more security and down to easier implementation.
You clearly don't know what you are talking about.

SQLite is a file on disk, the security of who can access it is managed by the OS via filesystem permissions, users and other mechanisms. It's not rocket science, and you would know that if you actually bothered to learn the basics.

There is no "authentication" in SQLite, because it's not even applicable to what SQLite aims to be, which is an application file format. Would you also complain that there's no "authentication" on .json files?
I whole-heartedly agree. This adds animations, hover text, and so forth. It's more kitsch than brutalist.
Tbh I feel like something like this would greatly benefit from being compiled in a documentation repo, like as a wiki or structured like obsidian or logseq docs.

The information is all important but compiled as one big document it's obviously going to tough to crack into and digest. But structuring it into a bunch of smaller sections that you can easily jump between relevant/interconnected bits would make this kind of thing so much more transparent for people.
Well, in some parts of the world the lie may be "I was watching 100% straight heterosexual porn, no homo". So a DNS lookup to pornhub.com does not reveal the lie.
Which VPS provider did you go with?

I tried AlphaVPS and another and I had no luck with the traffic routing out of the VPS. Went with a droplet in DigitalOcean in the end that's managed through Portainer. Works a treat and equivalently cheap.
Agreed. The TZ example is a lot stronger. That said, the overall point -- that the stance of these mega corps that rely on these projects do very little to ensure their longevity -- is well made.
Here is a link to the main diagram: https://anonymous.4open.science/r/more_agent_is_all_you_need...

Seems like a pretty brute force approach of frankly just throwing more compute at the query (via semi-statistical means).

I'd be more interested in how to scale this via different agents. i.e. do we have say one type of agent that is specialized to produce ideas, while another is trained to evaluate ideas. Those sort of chains seem like they'd be powerful - if you can find a way to generalize it
It’s also possible that this could be a change in personnel. Maybe the one who earned trust and took over was no more working for them. And an amateur took over with tight deadlines that lead to this gaffe for them.

Likely finding a plugin to do some special-ish functionality as easy.

These two things fuel the fire.

Back in the day it was, "No one gets fired for buying IBM." Today that sentiment applied to WordPress.
I wonder if the "American dream" has managed to spread to the rest of the world and now young people have unrealistic expectations that they can buy a house like young people used to be able to in the States while it was still filling up. This was not a thing in most other places, with multigenerational living being the default.
It also doesn't have anything explicitly to do with "actuarial climate updates" -- there have been a bunch of correlated losses recently (i.e. fires in 2017-2018) that mean that the insurers are losing money on people who live in certain high-risk places in California. Calling it "climate" just window dressing for local politics.

California won't let them underwrite to accurately reflect the location risk, so they're pulling out instead. It's basically exactly what Tptacek said, only demonstrating it via the stupidity of California's law.
That's really interesting information!

Re Acorn though — As much better from a market perspective as buying Acorn and releasing RISC- and BSD-based low-end workstations might have been for Sun, I still prefer to imagine a world where the Amiga's unique hardware and software got to live on — perhaps with compatibility layers to run Sun software, but nevertheless preserving a UNIX-like but still non-UNIX OS lineage and non-generic-PC hardware lineage.
Yeah, it’s silly. There aren’t enough foreign investors to go around causing RE prices to soar everywhere.
Your idea inspired me to see what such a microstory based on your idea would look like (Of course generated by ChatGPT3.5):

> As I delved into my computer, eager to tackle my to-do list, I was met with an unexpected sight: a digital love triangle among the Language Models (LLMs). The Email LLM, with its quick wit, seemed to be engaging in flirtatious banter with the verbose Textbook LLM, while the Programming Language LLM watched on with amusement. I couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity of it all, but as the bickering between the LLMs intensified, I realized their antics were hindering my progress. With a mixture of frustration and amusement, I gently redirected the LLMs back to their intended purpose, finally able to accomplish my task amidst the chaotic comedy within my computer.
Apropos of nothing I guess. Clearly no lessons learned. Expressing regret is sufficient for most people. Acting to not repeat your mistakes is way harder.

Eyeballing the graphs, it seems that most of the gain is with 10 agents, a bit more with 20, and there are diminishing returns after that. Apparently, more agents isn't going to do it.
> I’ve known plenty of people who had legitimate accidents not of their own fault where insurance made them more than whole

And I know plenty of people myself, who had legitimate accidents not of their own fault who were left $10-15K out of pocket after insurance and settlements.

Let's start with a car that was two years old, I owed $22K on. Car was totaled and most of the comps from the insurer was $25-28K. Oh good, says I. And then they find one 150 miles away that is $13,500. This drags the value down to about $20K. While there's obviously something wrong with this entry, "Doesn't say salvage title in the ad, so it's a valid comp".

It takes them over a month to figure this out, all the while they have me in a rental, and then try to tell me that they're only covering one week of rental coverage. Had to threaten to sue to get compensation for my injured wrist/arm (which was hyperextended when the airbag went off as I was holding the steering wheel).

I still ended up losing out on $6K 'equity' in my car, having to come up with another downpayment, and months of calls from various medical providers who were having a hard time getting my insurer to pay their bills.

For another driver who ran a stop sign, t-boned me, and whose insurance had admitted 100% liability within 48 hours.

This was German (where „Kindergarten“) comes from, though that word means ~1 or so to 5. Then pre school („Vorschule“) from 5-6 and then, if you pass the test („Schulreife Prüfung“ — “ripe for school exam”) the following year you start grade 1, which is when school actually begins.

There are various neurological theories the teachers have told me why the brain isn’t ready for reading, maths, etc until you’re six and have passed the exam. Hence 5-6 is still playtime and naps with some training on how to behave.

Japan.

Housing is affordable here. There's plenty of supply of single person apartments. Regular people can buy houses. Often the statistics hide this fact by comparing price per square foot, but the average apartment or house here is a lot smaller than in other places.
That was my first instinct as well which is why I went searching for more info. I doubt it affects anything in the drug, but that doesn’t mean people won’t search it out, including digging up corpses. I will point toward the ridiculous black market around tiger bones, pangolin scales, rhino horn, shark fins… etc. people get an idea in their heads and go after these things, regardless of effectiveness

Also the cheap materials roof weighs less, and so the whole building under the roof can get away with being built cheaper.

In order to have a better roof, you probably must have a better entire house under it also.

TBH I wasn't sure if you were aware and were knowingly going with the I can't believe it's not butter of UK punk.

The oddest thing about your comment, though, was the armed guards and school shootings references following a UK band callout - The Dunblane massacre aside (which was an adult shooter back in 1996) neither feature much in UK or Commonwealth schools, for the most part they're US phenomena, if not in uniqueness then certainly in ubiquitousness and frequency.
One of the benefits of a shrinking population.
Right. I’ve spent weeks creating automations in a business I knew very well, that would most likely save a few minutes per month for a low salary employee.

But the RFP said I had to do it, and the customer insisted that I follow the letter of the RFP, rather than hit the high value parts of the project.

The two problems with this are that the cost of automation far exceeded the possible future cost of the manual process, and working on this automation took oxygen away from the stuff that would help people.

Needless to say, it was a disaster.
I'd say the original author should just post something as an article instead of tweets. A blog post. Github md file. Github gist. Even pastebin. I don't care its format or where it is hosted, it does not need to be well formatted and could be as casual as it could be -- I don't expect to read a well-written article, and I know that would take a lot of effort. I just want to see something that is not a series of tweets.
You just don't hear news about affordable places because there's nothing to report. In Europe at least, housing is quite affordable outside of major cities and tourist hotspots like Ibiza. A couple with average income can get a nice home with reasonable ease in secondary cities. All you need is a 20% down payment and a steady income, of which your payments must not exceed 35%. This is not a very high bar. And it's not like the price of all real estate is that high either; the average price of 1 sq m was 3k EUR in Germany in 2023 and a typical apartment is 80-90 sq m.
The 'American Dream' is very similar in a lot of the OECD nations.

NZ'er checking in. Late 40's - a good portion/most of my peer group bought houses in their mid 20's to 30's. Now the same age range can't unless they've got mega inehitances or very, very, good jobs.

Ditto UK/Australia/Canada etc.

All countries to a greater or lesser degree have the same cost of living crisis (arguably NZ is one of the worst at the moment).
LOL. Police around here will routinely use rotary for grocery store thefts, fixed wing for pursuit of non-violent suspects. In fact a couple of weeks ago, they deployed a State Patrol fixed wing to come south about 40 miles to here to look for "a group of young males dressed in black that were graffiting numerous buildings in town".

> if their insurance is cancelled based on inaccurate information

I see this type of comment on HN too often. Some hypothetical bullshit scenario followed by a BIG if. Armchair quarterback type of comment.

In all highly advanced countries (G7 and similar), insurance is insanely strictly regulated. If they cancel your policy for a b/s reason, and your protests are ignored, then tell the regulators. They will fix it quickly and slap a huge fine on the insurer.
I’m assuming price parity of course.

Already the case with people buying Kia or Hyundai or even Polestar when better Teslas are available for less.
Yup you can even make PI^mD^n controllers... the challenge comes in the linearization.... recently we struggled with the backlash in a gearbox... with a long chain of small backlashes... we estimated the state of every pair... treated as an inertial system with no K and a short travel until the next moment locked in after e.g. .1 to 2 degrees.

The higher level system (surgery robot) also had a closed loop so we didnt have to be perfect, but cleaning up gave higher bandwidth.
Well over a decade or so ago I hit some problems syncing large filesystems. I think it could fail if it didn't have enough memory on the server to hold all the file metadata because it did all the metadata comparisons before examining any of the block checksums. Server memory is a lot cheaper now but even so if it still works this way it would nice if this was improved.
Australia is heading this direction too.

The government is obsessed with obtaining economic growth via unrestrained population growth.

There's simply not enough houses to increase the population of Australia by 1 million in 18 months and keep adding 2,000 population per day into the future.

People say "this won't end well". It's already ended badly and getting worse.

And the government - mostly landlord owning multi house portfolios - have zero interest in fixing it.
35x more reasoning for a 10% increase in accuracy?

Scaling with a scale factor of almost zero is still scaling, I guess.
Checked your numbers in another thread - excellent breakdown. Thanks for the clarification.

I did not read the original anandtech post so I did not realize the 512GBps already refers to the full-duplex bandwidth. You are right that PCIe 7.0 x16 sits between V100 and A100 NVLink.

This is the best thing to happen to Linux desktop, ever. Linux has dominated the server OS market since a long time. This is likely be the butterfly’s wing, the trigger to make Linux desktop break into consumer market. Libreoffice will likely get much more investment after this, likely triggering a cascade of investments to the desktop Linux ecosystem.

2-3 jurisdictions/countries involved so doubtful. It was such a frustrating clusterfuck that I just walked away in disgust. Airline was saying they can't edit it because its an agent booked ticket. Lastminute says they can't edit it cause its checked in. Spent ~2 hours at their desk (incl lengthy conference call between those two) trying to unfuck this and they still didn't manage a simple edit on a plane ticket. Eventually they announced plane is gone, no more point.

Tried claiming it from insurance...no go...they have a clause saying if your documents aren't in order then no claim. Ticket not in order...claim denied. Fair - I can kinda see that one.

"I assume these people couldn't get in to better companies". That's a pretty ignorant statement as Space X and Tesla are harder to get into than Harvard.

Well yeah, if you have an axe to grind and don't like Musk, then for you it's a red flag, but not for most people. Most people don't hate him enough to discriminate against a candidate for working there.

There are no more desirable companies than Space X because literally no other company is doing anything remotely like what they are. You have Boeing which is a disaster and Nasa which also isn't close.

As of 2022 Space X and Tesla were the #1 and #2 most desired companies to work for.

In response to the original comment where they said switching to Libre would introduce compatibility problems because the industry standard is Microsoft, I think its an incompatible comparison to talk about minor inconsistencies across the various Microsoft endpoints.

Different file formats. Different software entirely. Compatibility issues would be orders of magnitude more impactful than any issues intrinsic to the O365 suite.
I worked on the first digital archiving system for the UK National Archives. It allowed digital records from central government to be ingested, categorised and preserved. Before then, even digital documents had to be printed out to be archived as records, but this clearly didn't work for things like multimedia and web sites.

I later designed the first web presentation system for UK digital government records, and the mandatory access control system for them.
They also do not have NIMBY legislation. They are able to build and have mixed use buildings ie business on the bottom and homes on top. The reason why there’s so much inventory is that rarely any of it is a single family home with a yard.
