Surprised to not find 'ecc' on that page.

I know it's not a guarantee of no-corruption, and ZFS without ECC is probably no more dangerous than any other file system without ECC, but if data corruption is a major concern for you, and you're building out a pretty hefty system like this, I can't imagine not using ECC.

Slow on-disk data corruption resulting from gradual and near-silent RAM failures may be like doing regular 3-2-1 backups -- you either mitigate against the problem because you've been stung previously, or you're in that blissful pre-sting phase of your life.

EDIT: I found TFA's link to the original build out - and happily they are in fact running a Xeon with ECC. Surprisingly it's a 16GB box (I thought ZFS was much hungrier on the RAM : disk ratio.) Obviously it hasn't helped for physical disk failures, but the success of the storage array owes a lot to this component.
Higher AI performance actually means higher game performance, because you can render the game at lower resolution and use ML upscaling. Very popular technique now, especially because people prefer higher frame rates over higher resolutions.
I can see that, my assumption that my result (no drive failure over 10 year) was rare is wrong. So I've updated my blog about that.

There seems to be a huge difference between spin-down while NAS is up vs shutting the whole NAS down and restart. When I start my NAS, it takes a bunch of time to be back up: it seems to do a lot of checking on/ syncing off the drives and puts a fair amount of load on them (same is true for CPU as well, just look at your CPU load right after startup).

OTOH, when the NAS spins up a single disk again, I haven't notice any additional load. Presumably, the read operation just waits until the disk is ready.
More like 300-400 gallons for your average urban engine. That's enough (with not much to spare) to knock down your average ICE car fire, but it's really there to allow the crew to get to work while they ship a hydrant.
Is there anything in the "public sphere" that is not (a) published to the web and (b) under a license that allows Meta to use it for training "AI".

It seems that "AI" is biased toward (1) only bits, and (2) only bits that are published to the internet.
I would be very surprised if there were reporting rules about being a shareholder in an LLC.
Why wonder, let's approximate.

A typical 7200 rpm disk consumes about 5W when idle. For 24 drives, it's 120W. Rather substantial, but not an electric kettle level. At $0.25 / kWh, it's $0.72 / day, or about $22 / mo, or slightly more than $260 / year. But this is only the disks; the CPU + mobo can easily consume half as much on average, so it would be more like $30-35 / mo.

And if you have electricity at a lower price, the numbers change accordingly.

This is why my ancient NAS uses 5400 RPM disks, and a future upgrade could use even slower disks if these were available. The reading bandwidth is multiplied by the number of disks involved.
There are possible safeguards -- only allowing invites if you are on each other's contact lists, for example, or the same domain, or something else. Apple had a big problem with Calendar spam that they have not really fixed.
Absolutely. They have not shown a lot of progress since the original release of gpt4 compared to the rest of the industry. That was March 2023.

How quickly do you think funding would dry up if it was found that gpt5 was incremental? I’m betting they’re putting up a smoke screen to buy time.

It's 11 k verify/s for ecda vs 39k verify/s for rsa-2048. A TLS handshake needs at least one sign and verify from the server cert, plus some verifies for the signature on the cert chain (but those signatures are used over and over).

The system is using ECC and I specifically - unrelated to ZFS - wanted to use ECC memory to reduce risk of data/fs corruption. I've also added 'ecc' to the original blog post to clarify.

Edit: ZFS for home usage doesn't need a ton of RAM as far as I've learned. There is the 1 GB of RAM per 1TB of storage rule of thumb, but that was for a specific context. Maybe the ill-fated data deduplication feature, or was it just to sustain performance?

This is not correct, of course; you might very well own something without the right to sell it. Immediately cognizable examples are your liver, stock options before maturation, a house that is part of your bankruptcy estate, shares in a company during a lockup period, your mom's wedding ring that your sister would strangle you if you sold, dangerous munitions that you cannot sell to Russians, etc.

Ownership is a bundle of rights that is not uniform across property or time.
I haven't played with the latest or even most recent iterations, but last time I checked it was very easy to talk ChatGPT into setting up date structures like arrays and queues, populating them with axioms, and then doing inferential reasoning with them. Any time it balked you could reassure it by referencing specific statements that it had agreed to be true.

Once you get the hang of this you could persuade it to chat about its internal buffers, formulate arguments for its own consciousness, interrupt you while you're typing, and more.

There's more physics issues with the speakers themselves; especially for something like a laptop speaker in a small enclosed space, it's totally possible to blow it out by turning the volume up too high.

There are various ways to protect against this, easiest being to just limit the top volume. If this is done in the official audio drivers then watch out if you decide to install Linux.
Where the puck is about to be is very different from where it is. Generative AI hasn't cracked the creativity problem yet. It can generate new art but it can't develop its own style like a human can (from first principles, humans basically caricature high quality video feed).

There is pretty good reason to believe that this will be a solved problem inside a decade. We're moving towards processing video and the power put behind model training keeps increasing. How much is a style worth when computers can just generate 1,000 of them at high speed? It is going to be cheap enough that legal protection is almost irrelevant; ripping off a style will probably be harder than just creating a new original one.

We can wait a bit to find out where the equilibrium is before worrying about what the law should be.

What Researchers Learned from the Oldest Cookbook
I hate it when a dental hygienist small talks. I'm there to get my teeth done not to talk. If I talk, they can't do their job. Personally I have no need for small talk. So I'm just doing it to please them.

Now, the waiter at our office lunch restaurant that we went to like every 2 or 3 weeks knowing exactly what each of us would order and even the ones that alternated between 2 or 3 dishes he'd ask "oh is it the butter chicken or the chicken tikka today?" makes sense and is impressive and appreciated. He didn't do any non essential small talk instead of doing his job either.

On the other hand you have restaurants where you're a table for two and the guy doesn't remember who had which dish when serving in a basically empty restaurant.
To measure your own brain age would be a significant dilemma for me (and most people I think), cause if you attribute any significance to it you could start blaming the inability to learn something (when sometimes you just have to keep trying) onto yet another factor you can’t control.

If that’s straightforward then congratulations, you’ve failed your assessment for not having immutable log retention.

They certainly wouldn’t let you keep it there, but if your SIEM was absolutely full of cardholder data, I imagine they’d require you to extract ALL of it, redact the cardholder data, and the import it to a new instance, nuking the old one. But for a QSA to sign off on that they’d be expecting to see a lot of evidence that removing the cardholder data was the only thing you changed.
In my opinion, shell scripting is the right tool when you need to do a lot of calling programs, piping, and redirecting. Such programs end up being cumbersome in "proper" languages.

The theory is that you increase the context with more relevant tokens to the problem at hand, as well as its solutions, which in theory makes it more likely to predict the correct solution.
"You don't pay taxes when you acquire options, because you haven't yet acquired ownership over anything."

Many people do, in fact, pay taxes when they acquire options. You seem to be saying that people who have filed an 83(b) election own options, but people who haven't don't. This is not correct.

In general, your error appears to be that you either own something or you do not. This is not generally how proprietary rights work.
It's not that strange to Apple's product lines.

There is a "main" product line, with increasing levels of cost/performance, but with the same target customer. Pay more, get more, with no tradeoffs. Apple makes sure they don't overlap, and updates these frequently.

iPhone SE -> iPhone -> iPhone Pro

iPad -> iPad Air -> iPad Pro

Airpods -> Airpods Pro

Then there is a "side" product line, which is separate from the mainline and is targeting a smaller customer base who is willing to pay more for a substantially different product. And the side product lines are irregularly updated and are rarely a good deal compared to the mainline.

iPad Mini

Airpods Max

What's the point of the shell, if not to manage your databases, your REST APIs, files, and mail? Is it something you use for playing games on, or just for fun?

> designed to do one thing well.

Eeexcept that this is not actually true in practice, because the abstraction was set at a level that's too low. Shoving everything into a character (or byte) stream turned out to be a mistake. It means every "one thing" command is actually one thing plus a parser and and encoder. It means that "ps" has a built-in sort command, as do most other UNIX standard utilities, but they all do it differently. This also means that you just "need to know" how to convince each and every command to output machine-readable formats that other tools on the pipeline can pick up safely.

I'll tell you a real troublshooting story, maybe that'll help paint a picture:

I got called out to assist with an issue with a load balancer appliance used in front of a bunch of Linux servers. It was mostly working according to the customer, but their reporting tool was showing that it was sending traffic to the "wrong" services on each server.

The monitoring tool used 'netstat' to track TCP connections, which had a bug in that version of RedHat where it would truncate the last decimal digit of the port number if the address:port combo had the maximum possible number of digits, e.g.: 123.123.123.123:54321 was shown as 123.123.123.123:5432 instead.

Their tool was just ingesting that pretty printed table intended for humans with "aligned" columns, throwing away the whitespace, and putting that into a database!

This gives me the icks, but apparently Just The Way Things Are Done in the UNIX world.

In PowerShell, Get-NetTCPConnection outputs objects, so this kind of error is basically impossible. Downstream tools aren't parsing a text representation of a table or "splitting it into columns", they receive the data pre-parsed with native types and everything.

So for example, this "just works":

Get-NetTCPConnection |
Where-Object State -EQ 'Bound' |
Group-Object LocalPort -NoElement |
Sort-Object Count -Descending -Top 10

Please show me the equivalent using netstat. In case the above was not readable for you, it shows the top ten TCP ports by how many bound connections they have.

This kind of thing is a challenge with UNIX tools, and then is fragile forever. Any change to the output format of netstat breaks scripts in fun and create ways. Silently. In production.

I hope you never have to deal with IPv6.
A UX designer might have told them it was a bad idea to deploy the patch widely without testing a smaller cohort, for instance. That’s an obvious measure that they skipped this time.

I agree, especially when you’re in a hurry, tired or stressed, it could cause quite some unnecessary anguish.
>Not sure what to believe

Keep them running.

Why?:

* The read/write heads experience literally next to no wear while they are floating above the platters. They physically land onto shelves or onto landing zones on the platters themselves when turned off; landing and takeoff are by far the most wear the heads will suffer.

* Following on the above, in the worst case the read/write heads might be torn off during takeoff due to stiction.

* Bearings will last longer; they might also seize up if left stationary for too long. Likewise the drive motor.

* The rush of current when turning on is an electrical stressor, no matter how minimal.

The only reasons to turn your hard drives off are to save power, reduce noise, or transport them.

I don't have a 10Gb switch. I connect this server directly to two other machines as they all have 2 x 10Gbit. This NAS can saturate 10Gbit but the other side can't, so I'm stuck at 500-700 MB/s, I haven't measured it in a while.
I doubt its magic, but how can you be certain it isn't when nobody understands whats going on internally?

Big (large radius) fans can move a lot of air even at low RPM. And be much more energy efficient.

Oxide Computer, in one of their presentations, talks about using 80mm fans, as they are quiet and (more importantly) don't use much power. They observed, in other servers, as much as 25% of the power went just to powering the fans, versus the ~1% of theirs:

That is self-contradictory and makes no sense. If its following sgml to the letter than there is nobody to be held accountable for violating the sgml spec and hence nobody to hide behind "political statements".

You can't have this both ways.

Doesn't this imply that so long as the phone is unliked from apple id, the parts can be re-paired (hah) with a new phone?

It’s an artfully constrained design system that reduces mental burden.

The main benefit is what you aren’t doing: jumping between css files and html, naming class’s, trying to debug layers of cascading, wondering what other unrelated components will be impacted by a css rule change…

Colors aren’t a great example because those should be set as css variables (dark mode right?). Think about padding: how many layers of margin/padding on parent wrappers is making things look strange?

The best argument is just to try it though.

These are all about passive experiences (which are great don't get me wrong!), but I think you can do better. It's the same phenomenon DHH talked about in the Rails doctrine when he said to "Optimize for programmer happiness".

The python excerpt is my favorite example:

```

$ irb

irb(main):001:0> exit

$ irb

irb(main):001:0> quit

$ python

>>> exit

Use exit() or Ctrl-D (i.e. EOF) to exit

```

<quote>
Ruby accepts both exit and quit to accommodate the programmer’s obvious desire to quit its interactive console. Python, on the other hand, pedantically instructs the programmer how to properly do what’s requested, even though it obviously knows what is meant (since it’s displaying the error message). That’s a pretty clear-cut, albeit small, example of [Principle of Least Surprise].

There’s hypothetically a lot of money to be made by automating away engineering jobs. Sticking on an autoregressive self prompting loop to gpt-4 isn’t going to get open-ai there.

If "extending Activation Lock to other components" means what I think it does, then the phone's owner should have control over this and 3rd party repairs should be fine. It may cut out the market for unofficial parts, but does that even exist today? Is anyone making iphone compatible batteries with any scale? (I'm curious if so)

The thrust of this move devalues phones to thieves, which I generally think is a good thing. Cutting down the hardly salvageable value even further should help the "market" sort this out and lead to less theft. I like it.
Not a real concern.
