"Strategic ambiguity" can help a political party capture more voters than they otherwise would for similar reasons. Useful because it gives flexibility in decision-making and helps in managing different expectations without committing to a specific course of action. By being vague, leaders can avoid conflicts and keep their options open, allowing them to adapt to changing situations and negotiate better outcomes. Effective in diplomacy and business, where clear, direct statements might limit possibilities or provoke opposition.
Serverless is a Broken Promise to Fix it
Current serverless offerings come with a substantial litany of complex, frustrating and expensive issues that together constitute a far cry from the promise of serverless. In this post we look into why that is, what serverless should be, and how to get there.

“A randomly generated UID is fused into the SoC at manufacturing time. Starting with A9 SoCs, the UID is generated by the Secure Enclave TRNG during manufacturing and written to the fuses using a software process that runs entirely in the Secure Enclave. This process protects the UID from being visible outside the device during manufacturing and therefore isn’t available for access or storage by Apple or any of its suppliers.“
There’s going to be a lot of garbage content out there—but isn’t there already? People have been writing junk to try to get search engine placement for 20+ years.

I’m not necessarily seeing the slop problem. People should always have been skeptical of content on untrusted websites.

Now, if reputable sources start trying to pump out content with AI, that’d be a problem. I suspect for those who try, they’ll quickly lose their reputation.

> it does seem prudent to wipe your device and restore when you land. Then again, border officials can also deny you entry with very little justification so who knows?

For example, if they instruct you to turn on the device, and they see the setup screen or even just that it has no photos, no messages, nothing, might raise suspicion I would imagine.

Good luck trying to argue with them that absence of data should be considered normal and not a reason for them to harass you :(
>they can't otherwise punish you for refusing to give them your password.

Except of course by denying you entry, marking you in some "no fly" blacklist, and other ways that are not oficially "punishments", but are very much so in practice...
Exactly. Slop is like meth for corporations. It costs nearly nothing to produce unlike real content, and for a short period of time can give a real boost to number of viewers/ad impressions/etc, the current board members can get that jump in their stocks and take a golden parachute while their replacements have to deal with a company that can no longer produce anything useful and has to spend a massive amount of money to get everything back in shape.

"Slop" is a internet slang that has always been used to refer to low quality content that exploits current internet trends, using it to refer specifically to AI generated content is pretty new.
Relatedly, I think a lot of us under-estimate/under-appreciate physical security in our threat models. A desktop tower that never leaves my house and would be a pain for anyone but a dedicated burglar to steal maybe doesn't need the same sort of security/encryption/authentication requirements for physical access in person that a phone or laptop might need. Certainly there are plenty of fears of people targeting me specifically and getting physical access to my house, but there are also more legal protections from some of those. Threat models are all about trade-offs and physical security/physical access restrictions trade-offs can be under-appreciated as places to make choices that can be in your favor.
Considering how many different Raspberry Pis are out there now, I wouldn't be surprised if the Raspberry Foundation makes a plethora of newer microcontrollers.

If you are an electronics hobbyist but don't want to make/design your own surface mount boards (like me) there are lots of very accessible RP2040 boards at very low prices.

I've used it in the Raspbery Pi Pico ($5) which comes on a nice board with lots of IO. There is a W version for a bit more with WiFi.

If you don't mind slightly less IO then you can order an RP-2040 Zero. I got 6 off AliExpress for about $12. These only have 23 IO pins but they have a reset button, USB-C and are tiny (1.5cm x 2.5cm).

The nice thing about all of these is that they use the standard Raspberry Pi dev tools, micropython, C++ just works with convenient USB loading of the firmware.

Indeed. So not an aggressive invasion but a humanitarian intervention.

> * Invasion of Afghanistan, following the invocation of Article 5 after an attack on a NATO country (i.e., 9/11).

Not quite. Technically speaking, neither of the official NATO missions in Afghanistan, ISAF and Resolute Support, were Article 5 missions.

When the US triggered Article 5 in October 2001 it explicitly did not request a full NATO response, but initially only for support such as NATO AWACS aircraft in US airspace. When it invaded Afghanistan, which was entirely justified in international law as an act of self defence, a handful of NATO countries opted to send support contingents, like SOF, as a way of showing solidarity. But it was not a NATO mission under NATO command: Operation Enduring Freedom was American-led and commanded from the beginning. At best you can say several NATO allies invaded. Later, NATO launched ISAF and Resolute Support and became more involved as an organisation deploying forces, but that was post-invasion.
Enjoy it while you can. Once the marketing guys and monetization engineers get to it I suspect things will get a lot more annoying.

Show HN: AutoBalter, automated load-testing and fuzzing with just an API spec
Hi everyone!

I'm excited to announce the Beta launch of AutoBalter, which is an automated load-testing, fuzzing and integration testing solution. Taking an OpenAPI specification, AutoBalter will simulate requests to measure performance information and display these in an easy-to-use dashboard.

Additionally, these simulated requests are done such that AutoBalter learns more about how your APIs are structured and the constraints they have. Using both exhaustive tree-search and AI, AutoBalter will find requests which test the edge-cases of your system (and these can then be added as regression tests with one click).

Essentially, you provide an OpenAPI specification, we provide load testing, fuzz testing, integration testing and regression testing -- all automatically.

Would love to hear any feedback you have on the product or the idea!

Yes, but people's output is limited by their ability to type words on a keyboard. LLMs and other generative A.I. aren't bound by this limitation, and can put out significantly more.

> People should always have been skeptical of content on untrusted websites. Now, if reputable sources start trying to pump out content with AI, that’d be a problem.

How do you define untrusted websites, or reputable source? Especially when Google - which should be a trusted, reputable source - starts pumping out garbage as they did?
My last was a g8x ThinQ, dual screen by virtue of a case like the v50, but both screens were the same size - I believe with the v50 the secondary was slightly smaller?

What ultimately forced me to upgrade, however, was the main screen fell off - the glue holding it to the body seemingly failed, and as it fell the ribbon cable tore. I mulled getting another one (or a Wing) on ebay, but the P7Pro seemed a wiser investment

People still wonder why I'm so careful with phones.

At this moment, phones in many jurisdictions are still fair game. Anyone can grab whatever they want from them. That's why you can't really trust them. We need new rules that declare the 'confidentiality of phone contents,' especially information at rest, as inviolable, similar to the secrecy of correspondence.
Why can’t they simply have that virus in the lab, collected from that wild population in Laos, and it was accidentally released? Still a lab leak. Just an accident.
There's enough app variety to meet your needs. Phones are now just basic pipes to those apps.
Where did I say to do this every time you travel? I described the setup of such a phone. In fact if you had a second phone just for travel, who'd care? Not that big of a deal. Y'all are being pedantic.
That's the desired approach, yes, but... hot take incoming!

I think BGAs are easier to "hand" solder than other footprints (QFP, QFN etc). You drop the item in place, place it on a hot plate and or heat gun, and start melting it. Of course, if you screw it up, you are screwed. (Reballing sounds not worth it for most cases). And, you can't visually inspect.

I think this is because, at least for me, most of the soldering faults I have are due to uneven application, or improper amount of solder. BGA solves this.
I wish there was a way for Siri to dictate an article too from that dropdown.

Forth is awesome in situations where you've got a small environment, with crap tools, and you need to do some iterative development. In a pinch, you could hand assemble a Forth kernel and just burn it on an EEPROM and away you go. There are usually nicer alternatives today, but when you had to build your tools up from nothing, it was a very reasonable option.
Where can I learn more about how they are used in console hacking? This sounds very interesting
Also consider Australians who travel and return home. I have personally had my phone searched 3 times. I know many people who also have the same experience. One time I refused and let them keep the phone, just bought a new iPhone and restored it. Since then I was searched almost every time I went through the airport.

After refusing to hand over the code (Politely... I explained that no, there is no terrorism material or similar on my phone, I just object to this practice, which they could not comprehend) I was treated pretty aggressively, had my whole body searched (not strip searched, but groped very well all over), all my luggage taken apart etc.
Probably still gonna prompt for 25% tip on the $18 burger I just had mechanized for me.
I don't disagree, but it leads to the question from the security guy: how do you fix CVEs in the bootloader after it's shipped (aka in the field)?
This AI craze is very underwhelming. Surprised to see Apple go whole-hog into it.
Hence they made the Pico Debug Probe [0]. It makes it super easy to reflash firmware to the Pico in a quick iterative loop.

However, the appeal of mounting as a mass storage device is not for iterative development (as you mentioned). Invariably something breaks, and the easiest way to get back on track is to reflash their default blank firmware using the mass storage interface.

> use it for a few days before hand so it doesn't appear to be a burner phone

No need to bother.

Most companies of any size, and us civil servants, have policies to travel with burner phones/laptops when crossing (even some benign) international boarders and/or entering certain countries.

Frankly, it is so commonplace, it is not remotely suspicious to travel with a burner.
cars are extremely dangerous for both kids and adults. about 43 _thousand_ ppl get killed in US _per year_ and among them there are about 1200 kids younger than 14 years and about 3000 teenagers of age 13-19. The total numbers are _double_ the nr of gun related deaths(about 20+k) that don't include suicides with about 1500 kids younger than 18 killed. So yeah, I totally don't understand anything and you seem to understand a lot
I work on agents at Brainchain AI

I don't think they are overhyped. I think that it's easy to hook up an LLM to some functions and get impressive results, but I think to make a really good agent system there are some core pieces that need to exist around the 'agent' to enable sophisticated workloads that many are not actually building out.

Do you think AI agents are overhyped?
TL;DR: he likes it because there's only one version available, whereas most microcontrollers have many more than one variant.

This seems like a very weak argument.

IMO (just based on the specs; haven't actually used it), the main reason to use this is for the PIO stuff. That's a very niche use case though.
On one hand, it's unfair that a country already very rich with natural resources discovers more of them.

On the other hand, if there is a country which can be trusted to exploit natural resources in a way that benefits the whole country and its population, and not fall down the resource curse[1], it's Norway.

Recipes generally cannot be copyrighted. But the filler text, that definitely can be, and is. So if I wrap my recipe in a pointless anecdote, I make it that much harder for The Unscrupulous Gourmet to use a web scraper to steal my recipe.
Even easier: I keep my previous phone when I get a new phone, so it's just a matter of swapping a SIM card. Of course, my old phone was factory reset once I decided to keep the new phone, because I don't want it laying around with all my data even if it is just in my desk drawer.
They might try to claim that you're smuggling a new phone or some such. But you could often just state that it's corporate policy?

Now you can both take the same side complaining about stupid bureaucratic rules making everyone's life harder.
The iMac refined a form factor that dated back to at least Commodore. The iBook came after decades of iteration by other companies on laptops. The Cube was just a PC with a more compressed form factor. The iPod came a few years after other commercial digital media players. Etc, etc.

Note that I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with their approach or that they didn't make real improvements. I'm just saying that Apple has never produced any successful product that would count as "new" to someone interested in cutting-edge research. They've always looked around at things that exist but aren't yet huge successes and given them the final push to the mainstream.
There is no curtain whatsoever in modern times. Russian auto-translates excellently. Here [1] is the largest Russian state media site. Chinese is a bit bumpier, but it's also fully readable. [2] There's nothing particularly extreme, except insomuch as nationalism has become a bad-word somehow, and their media does focus heavily on culture, history, and national identity. Granted, Russia is quite negative towards the US, but probably no more than you'd expect if roles were reversed and Russia decided to just join the party in one of our many misguided invasions, upping the ante ever higher each time a game-changer failed to change the game.

Ask HN: Naming another company when describing your product
When I'm looking at a new product, a lot of times it's hard to understand what it does. I see a lot of comments on HN saying things like, "wow it would be nice if they just said, 'We're like Dropbox, but with end-to-end encryption, plus a few other bells and whistles'". It helps to categorize the product quickly in people's minds.

My question is, what are the pros and cons of putting descriptions like that on your official landing page? Is there a legal downside? Is there a marketing downside? Why don't people do this more?
Ooops, you're right! Fixed & attributed.
It was "Soldier Out of Luck".
I suspect the use cases where MCU security features are useful is dwarfed by those that are not.
Those are other alternatives, yes. That and mining the slop with automated tools.

The problem with public domain stuff is that there is more than enough of it, but you cannot access public domain information because monetized slop has superseded it in the search results.

I believe that automated AI engines will eventually help individuals find non-sloppy public domain articles, or assemble them from slop directly.

But piracy is always a good option.
