Big Tech's role in enabling link fraud – take 2
I posted an earlier draft of this article to Hacker News 4 months ago which was well received [1], but it didn't garner much discussion around the core issue.

Dialog around link fraud complacency was likely sidetracked due to a lack of real-world examples to better illustrate the technical problem at hand. To better illustrate the issue, I've added an examples section citing over 20 cases of link fraud on Google Search, Bing, and X.

I hope that this thread can spark a meaningful dialog around law and security as it pertains to Big Tech's role in enabling link fraud. Society can overcome this issue through concerted efforts to raise awareness and enforce existing legislation.

It has all the worst everything in my experience out of all major systems in that space.
I am not at all afraid of the BSL, personally, and believe that it’s at least *a* solution to the fucked up economics of our industry. Professionally, we use two products having BSL-like licenses; one is under a support contract, and the other isn’t, and for the latter workload (CPAL) I was grilled by our legal department for weeks to ensure we abided by the stipulations. My only worry is that the leader who comes in after me might not be aware and may violate accidentally opening the org to risk. So there definitely is friction in the enterprise when using this type of license, but IMO it’s worthwhile to make sure software providers can still earn and not become outcompeted on their own capability by the large providers. For this reason I continue to recommend using these solutions in our workloads.
Asking in earnest: how is the “queer” classification relevant in this context?
It doesn't integrate to anything, you need to explicitly give it context every time you ask it something.

Saga Pattern Simplified: Building Sagas with Temporal
That's something that I keep wondering about. The existing voice assistants are all garbage across the board. Whatever you say about Siri, Google's assistant is even worse. Meanwhile, for the past couple months, I was able to fire up ChatGPT app and speak to it casually, in noisy environments, and it would both correctly convert my speech to text (with less than 5% errors) and correctly understand what I'm actually saying (even in presence of transcription errors).

All it takes to make a qualitatively better voice assistant would be to give GPT-4 a spec of functions representing things it can do on your phone, and integrating that with the OS. So why none of the companies bothered to do it? For that matter, I wonder why OpenAI didn't extend the ChatGPT app in this direction?

I really wish this now makes Swift worthwhile outside of the Apple ecosystem. A bit like Go.
IDK, we have all of the unused space behind the screen of a laptop. Why are there no attachable modules that take advantage of that?

It would be ideal to have a PCIe Thunderbolt connector that allows you to attach a GPU that maglocks to the back of the screen while in use, and any manufacturer could make their own variations. Thunderbolt can easily send 100w of power. Wouldn't be on desktop scales but it would be enough to make me happy.
That's the thing, though. Gooby is just a means to an end; the ultimate end goal of your company is to write software that is useful to people and makes money. For the zealots, however, Gooby is the end in and of itself.

So, where's the difference? One doesn't care about what they sell as longs it makes them money, the other as long they have fun.
>This change will allow Swift to expand its reach to more platforms and use cases, sparking fresh possibilities and broadening Swift’s impact across the technology landscape.

How does having a GitHub organization tangibly impact the implied goal of making Swift more impactful outside of apples devices?
I completely agree, especially with the taking away the creative part and leaving us with the chores.

Doctors have exams, residencies, and limited licenses to give out to protect their industry. Meanwhile, tech companies will give an engineering job to someone who took a 4 month bootcamp.
Interesting, I'd assumed it was going to be a pawn promotion to something esoteric like a knight that didn't create a check, but that's a couple layers deeper.

End-to-End Arguments in System Design [pdf]
I think it's a complex system, where it's not so much any one factor but rather the presence of so many different factors that each have a small impact and which together combine to have a big impact. So you could be right at the same time the article is right. Technology has become a great atomizing force in our society, from automobiles keeping us from talking to each other in traffic to cell phones keeping us from talking to each other at the store. Even online shopping atomizes us. And in the mean time, both parents basically have to be working all the time to keep paying for their lifestyle. All of this combined leads to isolated childhoods, and because we tend to keep the habits we learn as children, isolated adulthoods.

Qualcomm is funding Linaro for upstream Linux support, while building desktop processors and aiming for 50% of the PC market in 5 years. A dev kit that is locked to a single vendor would not encourage adoption. With Apple's refusal to let customers run VMs on iPads, ex-Apple Nuvia/Oryon/Qualcomm has a window of opportunity to provide an open, standardized platform for Arm PCs.

- Linux (this one stays at EL1)
- Linux w/ KVM (which jumps to EL2 before kernel handover)
A popular aircraft type is likely to be built for 20+ years and be flying for 40 or more. The 737 was rolled out in 1967, and the fourth generation is still being built. This is rather like a major chunk of the world's computing infrastructure running on Fortran (F77, F90... 2008, 2023).

There hasn't been a lot of buzz about it locally for now.

There was a similar programme(cyber.mil.pl) with a very similar budget started during the tenure of the previous government, but considering the recent political upheaval and subsequent corruption investigations supported by evidence in the form of hours of recordings gathered in secret by a now crown witness, that money might have went nowhere.

Time will tell really, as Polish counterintelligence suffered a major blow back in the mid 00s orchestrated by a politician who vehemently opposes accusations of having ties with Russia, but truth be told "the lady doth protest too much, methinks".

Right. But there's so much effort, money and reputation invested in various configurations, experimental architectures, etc. that I feel something is likely going to pan out in the coming months, enabling models with more capabilities for less compute.
Number of times I selected a square with 5% "meh" chance: 10. Number of times I got "meh" and the computer then selected that square: 8.

I had a streak of 20 attacks in a row (i.e. 40 rolls of a 20 sided die) without getting a double-digit number, and even got a critical failure (which required two 1s).

Copenhagen isn't any more satisfiable than Many Worlds.

They both say similar things: that the wavefunction evolves according to the Schrodinger equation. One leaves the equation intact (Many Worlds), while the other involves randomly selecting certain parts of it to be "real" or "unreal" without any explanation of how or why that choice is made (Copenhagen).
Lots of things are possible with access to source code that are still easier when someone writes a tool for that scenario.
As far as I'm aware, the only time Apple has implemented that kind of restriction is with their DMA compliance. Like, I used the US App Store (with a US credit card) while physically in Europe for many years.
> If your complaint is that she was a fine CFO but a terrible CEO then i can hardly see her going back to a CFO role as failing upwards

Failing upwards would be her announcing she's raised money for a new start-up at which she will be CEO. (EDIT: To be clear, I'm agreeing with you.)

Instead, she's going back to where she has a track record. It would be like Musk selling Twitter. Or David Marcus going back to 2001 [1].

The paper states that they iterate multiple times with the LLM and only take answers that don't contain hallucinations and can pass the proof engine.

Quite simply, the VAX group won. Marketing believed two product lines competing in the same space with incompatible software would not be in DEC's best interests.

As I worked in the -10 group as a coop, I was bummed to hear that decision. However, the more I used the VAX, the more I realized it was, in fact, a better foundation for the 80s and beyond. The -10 is cool, tho. Very cool.
It's just Siri, but with better context.

If you don't specifically activate it, it won't do shit.
Still involves friction. A more "seamless" way for Apple to do this would've been to license GPT-4's weights from OpenAI and run it on Apple Intelligence servers.
I feel like this is an awful feature for your native language, but fantastically exciting for a second language where you're not quite fluent and need to be able to write coherently.
I mean, obviously. If you let a system interact with the external world that system on its own will not follow the schrodinger equation.

Carroll is suggesting we try to observe this behavior from a sufficiently large isolated system.

> I have no idea what code is running on a server I can't access.

That's like... the whole point? You have some kind of hardware-based measured boot thing that can provide a cryptographic attestation that the code it's running is the same as the code that's been reviewed by an independent auditor. If the auditor confirms that the data isn't being stored, just processed and thrown away, that's almost as good as on-device compute for 99.999% of users. (On-device compute can also be backdoored, so you have to trust this even in the case that everything is local.)

The presentation was fairly detail-light so I don't know if this is actually what they're doing, but it's nice to see some effort in this direction.

E: I roughly agree with this comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40638740) later down the thread -- what exactly the auditors are verifying is the key important bit.
This quote has been circulating recently:

> So where was he going? I saw two possibilities: either to Tikkakoski to visit his ex-girlfrind he was on the phone with or; just to drive around with a new powerful car, to shake off the heated phone call.

I don't understand how suicide isn't at the top of the list here. He was obviously very upset emotionally. He didn't care for his belongs other than his phone. He didn't care to steal someone's car or answer for it. He never shows up anywhere.
Personalization really feels like the missing link here. The images it creates are highly contextual, which increases their value dramatically. Nobody on Reddit wants to see the AI generated T. rex with a tutu on a surfboard, but in a group chat where your dancer buddy Rex is learning to surf, it’s a killer. The image AI can even use photos to learn who a person is. That opens up a ton of cool ways to communicate with friends
> disbanded their superlignment group

They were, for all practical purposes, acquired. The alignment group served its role in underligning that OpenAI was building Really Serious Stuff. There's no marginal benefit to having them around at this point, given their PR purpose has been fulfilled.
I also found the article to be far too verbose and the parts I read mostly tried to imply some malfeasance, but there was hardly any specific accusations.

Industry sponsorship is entirely normal for scientific conferences, they would not really be possible without it. This also isn't an issue usually, the sponsors get some advertisment on the conference and some space to represent themselves. If sponsors actually would affect the talk selection that certainly would be a very serious problem, but I didn't see any real evidence of that in the article.
Even if Apple cracks and ports iMessage to Android, I would still expect them to use a green bubble. It's a social signal to shame those in the outgroup

Indeed. In the robotics space, this just happened with foxglove studio. Six months ago, I considered advocating that we switch our bespoke visualizer to be a bunch of foxglove plugins instead. Today, it's clear that would have been a terrible move.
I never really understood the appeal of tiling window managers. I've gotten used to having overlapping windows with appropriate parts peek out out behind others. e.g. tail of a log behind an editor running a program, and I can bring it to the foreground to see older lines and/or scroll. To do the same with a tiling manager, I would zoom the logging pane. I suppose I just prefer less layout changes. Same for Slack, I have just enough peeping out to know there's some messages but I can't see the message text so I can ignore them until I'm ready.

Are there situations that make more sense to use a tiling manager like on larger (where all the tiles are usable) or smaller screens (where full expansion makes sense)?
Huh. I stand corrected. Not sure where I got 30 from.

(I wasn't rounding that far, I was giving what I thought was an accurate number. Accuse me of bad info, not bad math.)
It does sound a bit silly on its face; apparently the repositories are in Apple’s org which limits access to GitHub-isms to members of Apple GH teams, and so it sounds reasonable if their goal is to extend the community beyond those limits on the GH platform.
So....this seemingly just reflects a shift in research priorities, and there is no evidence provided to the contrary, and no reason to remark at all, except that

>Several entomologists who organized panels in bee science for the conference said that they were surprised to hear that research about the effects of neonicotinoids on bees had all but vanished from the program.

but then also:

> they also said that the field has shifted to an approach that accounts for multiple stressors on individual bees and hives, rather than studies of individual factors, and that the research presented at the conference reflects that way of thinking.

This seems like a real nothing-burger of an article. Research interests ebb and flow. Science is as subject to fads as almost anything else, and conferences more than most things tend to reflect these fads.
If only they hadn't fought the patent troll, and were denied the ability to bring a new suit when they lost.

I find it concerning that we’re automatically blaming everything on Russia and China with the bare minimum evidence. It greatly reduces scrutiny since it’s assumed we can’t do anything about it. It’s very possible that domestic actors are simply using Russian proxies to mask their activities to avoid being caught. Of course, I’m not saying it’s not the Russians, just that more investigation is necessary and we shouldn’t jump to the obvious conclusions.

About time. I was saying that Apple is cooking these features, especially intelligent Siri, for the past 1.5 years. It was obvious really.

You can clearly see only people objecting to this new technological integration are the people who don't have a use case for it yet. I am a college student and I can immediately see how me and my friends will be using these features. All of us have ChatGPT installed and subscribed already. We need to write professionally to our professors in e-mail. A big task is to locate a document sent over various communication channels.

Now is the time you'll see people speaking to their devices on street. As an early adopter using the dumb Siri and ChatGPT voice chat far more than average person, it has always been weird to speak to your phone in public. Surely the normalization will follow the general availability soon after.

That's not to mention the strong-arming, harassment, and threats towards researchers publishing papers that paint Monsanto and Bayer in a negative light. [1]
