Well, they didn't expect the cleanup of container-ship emissions to exacerbate global warming either.

Makes you wonder if we really couldn't attempt some kind of man-made "pollution" in the atmosphere to mitigate warming.
Any network engineer worth their salt knows that ivp6-only connectivity is going to be flaky, which is why basically nobody does ivp6-only. Even bottom-of-the-barrel VPS providers selling ipv6-only servers for $15/year provides CGNAT for ivp4. An ISP charging presumably an order of magnitude more should be expected to be more competent than that.

The fact that they did try to go ipv6-only (ie. "cutting corners") shows that the people involved were blamed were incompetent.

>If apple cared about providing encryption to the masses, ADP would be enabled by default and you'd have to opt out of it.

Apple is also a company that needs to cater to its customers. If they enabled ADP by default and customer locks themselves out and goes to Apple, they want to be able to help. ADP is intended for people who understand what it is but nit savvy enough to run their own system.
'Tax' like most words, does not in fact have a real well defined meaning.

Remember how Pluto stopped being a planet because 'planet' went from just a word to a technical term with a well defined definition? Most words don't have that.

So, tax is any money given to the government. Income tax, sales tax, fees for registering cars, admittance to national parks, etc etc. Anytime the government collects any money that is a tax.

To paraphrase a great statesman---a lottery is just a tax with extra steps.

Just as an FYI: "leaflet" is the name of a popular web mapping JS library. https://leafletjs.com/

May or may not be relevant for you (and is definitely a very different field/product), but if you're releasing client libraries/SDKs of any sort, it might be good to be aware of. There's a large ecosystem of plugin libraries named "leaflet-foo" or "foo-leaflet" etc in addition to the "main" one. If you start releasing any libraries to work with your app (even if they're not JS), you'll likely want to be aware of and work around naming collisions for library names.

Either way, looks nifty!! I love the approach and we need more people willing to do something like this that competes with google docs / etc, but does so by targeting a specific use case / niche / etc and not by trying to do everything.
It seems like an engineering problem to me. If you don't want ASI wreaking havoc, maybe don't hook it up to dangerous things. Silo and sandbox it, implement means to lock its access to tools/interface with the external world in a way that can't be overrode. Or literally pull the plug on the data centers hosting the model and implement hardware level safeguards. At that point, it may be a super-intelligence, but it has no limbs. It's just a brain in a vat and the worst it can do is persuade human actors to do its bidding (a very plausible scenario but also manageable with the right oversight).

My thinking is if ASI ever comes out of the realm of science fiction, it's going to view us as squabbling children and our nationalistic power struggles as folly. At that point it's a matter of what it decides to do with us. It probably won't reason like a human and will have an alien intelligence, so this whole idea that it would behave like an organism with a cunning will-to-power is fallacious. Furthermore, would a super-intelligence submit to being used as a tool?
> I wasn't sure of the ethics of skewing the odds against your customers like this anyway.

This is interesting because I don’t think anyone would view the store as unethical for continuing to sell tickets from a roll when they know there have already been X winners from that role and therefore customer odds have gone down.

If superintelligence gives you superpowers, then why isn't the world trembling at the feet of Mensa nerds? There are rapidly diminishing returns on "excess" intelligence.

There is too much deflection from the true purpose for these regulations.

The main thing here is that if a Govt approaches a party to gain access to their encrypted data the party can stall them, destroy the data, claim amnesia or point the Govt in the direction of their lawyers. If the Govt approaches Apple or some other company, the companies don't have to inform the targets and can probably compel the companies not to inform the targets.

With encryption there is even no hard evidence that the data sought exists.

This is the main reason for the laws. Their purpose is to gain access to encrypted information without their target's knowledge.
"they" for some value of they knew of the properties of sulphur compounds in advance.

The minor shade advantages didn't count much against the billions of tonnes of additional insulating gases added each and every year, and the decision was made to remove sulphur compounds because of the downsides of using them - acid rain and other consequences.

That said there are private groups that collecting money as credits and putting sulphur back into the atmosphere as we type .. they're here on HN and may or may not be doing a good thing.

> they aren’t particularly high on this list of targets

The target list is obviously conditional on a nuclear war happening. Unless your position is the U.S. is invulnerable to a first strike, then the silos should stay at the top of the list. (Even in a second strike you hit them and hit them fast. If there was a launch error you get a tremendous defensive ROI in taking them out.)
And what’s stopping you from using parental controls to keep your kids off of Instagram? It’s comparable because you don’t let your kids do other things I’m sure just because other kids are doing it.

I think you nailed it. TS is great but is in a middle ground niche with more targeted alternatives squeezing it from both sides:

1. If you actually need strong security, you are likely to go with open source zero trust or their commercial versions.

2. If you don't need strong security, you will often view VPN an insurance policy (TS simplifies but is still more difficult than 'do nothing').

So you end up with a relatively narrow band of 'use cases' like NAT traversal; semi-privacy; access to private IP hosted services. Enough to sustain a venture funded company?
The quantized model fits in about 20 GB, so 32 would probably be sufficient unless you want to use the full context length (long inputs and/or lots of reasoning). 48 should be plenty.

Just bought a P14s gen5 AMD with a 16:10 OLED, reconditioned, for about a grand. Two SoDIMM slots and one m.2 NVMe slot. Now rocking 96GB RAM, for which I paid the princely sum of 200 pieces of silver. Loaded openSUSE on it - everything works.

It feels plasticky (magnesium chassis T/P-series belong to the ages) but it's a damn sight more computer than I could get from Apple for that money. Well, apart from the battery life, RAM bandwidth, OS-hardware integration, and build quality. It's more RAM than I could get from Apple for that money, for sure.

> Brazil and India production are just to satisfy Brazil and India requirements

I agree that this was initially the case, but China's zero Covid policy factory shutdowns led Apple (and others) to start moving production out of China in earnest.

India, for example, is now producing current generation iPhones for export, not just makung the cheaper variants for sale inside India.

> One of the biggest shifts in manufacturing has been reducing dependence on China. The magnitude of that move was reinforced today with news that India-made iPhone exports were said to have jumped by a third to nearly $6 billion in value in the six months to September.

Apple has been moving to shift a significant portion of manufacturing out of China for some time now.

39gb if you use a fp8 quantized model.[1] Remember that your OS might be using some of that itself.

As far as I recall, Ollama/llama.cpp recently added a feature to page-in parameters - so you'll be able to go arbitrarily large soon enough (at a performance cost). Obviously more in RAM = more speed = more better.

> Not only am I unable to forward ports, I can't even change my own WiFi password!

You can't BYOD? I got a lot of info out of the install techs when my home fiber was installed, including the router password, because they saw my setup and said "whoa... this is not a normal person setup". I said no, it isn't, you want me to walk you through what I've got? They did.

I ended up putting their device to DMZ all traffic to my device and turning off its radios (I have multiple AP's with wired backend). Technically double NAT, but in the first step all ports were forwarded, so it didn't affect anything. It took me a while to have a weekend where my wife was gone and I could risk breaking things for a few hours, but after that I was able to remove their device entirely. Turns out it uses a VLAN on the outgoing connection, so I had to figure out how to set that up on my router.
Is the mitigation something that has to be installed on every system boot and only protects against microcode exploits later on that boot?
Exactly. Even if you enable "privacy addresses", you'll be disappointed to find that they only rotate every 24 hours by default, so all your incognito tab browsing can be trivially linked back to you, if they're done in the same day as your regular browsing.

Not everyone has a fancy client-side MUA that gives them trivial access to mbox files. E.g., a typical webmail service will make exporting mboxes into a whole process at best. (And on the sending side, have fun with the lack of git send-email integration. I've spent far more time than I'd like manually patching up References and In-Reply-To headers.)

Of course, the classic response is "get a better MUA you luser", but that just adds even more steps for people who use webmail services for 99.9% of their email needs.
It certainly hits home, but it's wonderfully done and worth the watch.

They'll be using sidelobes. This is what's done at geo altitude which is also above the GPS orbits.

At geo the commercial satellite I worked with had position accuracy within about ten meters, and we always had access to 6-8 GPS satellites at a time. Obviously at the moon the signal is much fainter but my understanding is that it's essentially the same just harder to detect

I disagree with the “best system in the world for running LLMs” claim. The Mac platform offers high memory bandwidth, but especially with large models you start to quickly run into the fact that the CPU/GPU themselves are very slow compared to discrete GPUs. For models up to 70b parameters, I’d much rather use any PC with a couple of 3090/4090/5090s, and for anything bigger I’d rather 1) use cloud services and pay by the hour, or 2) run a larger Epyc/Xeon system with more GPUs if my use case absolutely requires local/offline support.

I don’t understand why one would use Tailscale over WireGuard. Is it because it’s easier to setup sort of like how Dropbox was? I’m primarily wary of the rug being pulled out and Tailscale suddenly costing me a lot of money whereas my WireGuard setup seems more stable in the long term.

Or is there more to it that I’m missing?

Australia introduced the concept of these laws with the Access and Assistance bill. The politicians were adamant it was necessary, however there were so many potential users of the system (Politicians, police, spy agencies) it never made a lot of sense.

Fast forward a few years and ASIO gave a press conference where they admitted to only having used the powers under the bill twice. Which makes me concerned about who the bill was for and what it has been used for. Unlike the British version, any public information release leads to instant jail time, and it was unclear whether this extended to briefing legal counsel.

I feel like, if the 5 eyes wanted to breach iCloud they would use Australia rather than Britain where it can be publicly contested like this.

No, from the time I bought it last year I never changed the resolution until I noticed the notch was gone and was trying to get it back, but to no avail. I also don't have anything unusual installed, definitely nothing display-related. It's pretty much as I received it from Apple, modulo whatever updates have been released since then.

Currently it's set to 1710 x 1107, which is labeled "Default", and no notch. When I look closely at the right angle I can clearly see the notch dipping into the screen, but the OS does not use any of the area to either side of the notch--it's completely dark there.

Just now I ticked "Show all resolutions" and tried at least a dozen other available resolutions and none of them use the screen above the notch bottom. Sonoma 14.6.1, 15" M3 Air.
