A gigantic nuclear furnace Where hydrogen is made into helium At a temperature of hundreds of degrees
You are perfectly free to keep selling what we've been eating. No one is forcing people to plant the new stuff.
This common sense statement should be true, but is wholly ignorant of the lawsuits farmers deal with from seed suppliers
No. They should be available for legit use cases and not available for data scrapers who will use it to facilitate algorithmic housing and employment discrimination. Especially not available for scammers who make mugshot extortion websites.
Few who paid their debt to society and moved on are excited about random strangers wanting to do their own petty little performative mock show trials to sit in smug judgement over them. Please stop.
I think the point is intent. Sure, no chance of success to build a reactor. But he created a radiation hazard situation all the same.
If a nuclear engineer enabled and instructed him, would there not be liability for the hazard? If ml is going to be an expert instructor for nuclear, hacking, bio hacking, virus research, do the peddlers of the ai product escape ethical or legal responsibility just because "its an app?"
succeeded in making a real reactor
The concern here is not if an amateur attempt to make a reactor, hack a bank, bioengineer a medicine/poison is successful or not. Interactive and instructive access to some forms of knowledge used to come with discretion along side instruction.
Yes, perhaps your swearing at me in this context is a little hysterical
Of course. "tried to" being key words in the comment. If he had the help of Claude at the time, how much more dangerous would his bumbling have been?
A real nuclear engineer with the knowledge he needed would also have said "no, don't do that and I won't help you." We are programming the knowledge into the ai agent. Giving ai a little discretion makes sense too.
A high school kid tried to build a nuclear reactor as a science project a while back, getting his mom's house designated as a superfund cleanup site.
Fastmail reads or analyzes users email to sell ads? Fastmail trains ai models on their user's email messages?
Metadata is more valuable than message content for analysis. GPG solves that how?
Off topic rage bait harassment has top comment? Why?
Is this specific to carplay, or can other bluetooth devices also silently and nefariously hijack your cellular data connection?
Justice asks why no one of the 500M people who were searched have complained?
If you actually have serious workshop like restoring cars or building something, rent a warehouse. HOAs have strict rules about chemicals, noise and vans parked on drive way!
I'd never buy a home in a HOA, because I don't need this guy telling me how I can use my garage. City ordinances are already good enough, when it comes to sane noise and parking rules.
This is not always the case.
Last week, my monitoring system sent me 20k emails in a few hours in response to a server attack.
When those hit my gmail inbox, gmail marked them all as spam. Myself, the user, did not mark them as spam. Gmail did that for me. But their reputation system is behaving as if 20k people marked 20k emails from us as spam.
In response to those 20k emails marked as spam, now our domain sender reputation with gmail is LOW, and our low volume of legitimate email with customers goes to their spam folders.
The gmail client gives me no way to unmark these messages as spam, except to click on each message, one at a time, and dig into a submenu to find the "Not spam" button.
This time, the danger isn’t financial engineering. It’s that our financial system has attached itself to the vulnerabilities of our physical world — power grids, water, land, supply chains — and created hazards that markets have no framework to analyze.
Why is it a danger for the value of money to be correlated with major things happening in the real physical world.
If my house burns down, the value of my house changed.
If a bank gambles it's deposits on snake oil like Tesla or Ai Companies, and the market wakes up to the true value of those companies, the worth of that bank rightfully collapses.
Is the author arguing the value of money should be divorced from the physical world?
How does someone as young as Cavanaugh become so homophobic. I wanted to believe our society was past this.
The counter-example, in classic MMO terms, is Ultima Online adding non-PVP game instances in response to player feedback. Without the dramatic threat of PVP conflict at most times, UO was less emotionally engaging. The non-PVP players were bored without the emotional excitement (stress, danger, whatever) of ad hoc PVP. The PVP-focused players were bored when all the reputational mechanics became more or less meaningless in a world only occupied by PKers.
The release of Arc Raiders captured that original UO social dynamic perfectly. Players flooded forums with requests to make PVP optional. In that case, the devs knew better than to listen.
Telco infra runs on autopilot?
Has none of the usual expected perks like rental car insurance or damage/theft protection on purchases. Guess purchase protection would be a threat to applecare revenue.
if you read the manual (which I guess most kids didn't).
Most kids did't read the manual? I would rtfm for every game I got my hands on during the car ride home from toysrus or blockbuster. If Mom had several errands to run, I may rtfm a dozen times before I finally got home with the game.
Identifying the 1% of ai use cases that are useful and refusing to have your attention stolen by the 99% that is mild melting garbage will be the key ai skill for the ai future
I just got an invoice from ups to pay a $16 brokerage fee to jpmorgan for collecting a $0.60 tariff on a sticker included in a box with a custom keyboard shipped from Taiwan. Seems like wall street is making out better than the US on this arrangement
Would you consider renaming the note to contain a reference to the generated code? Such as "Thoughts on Hedgehogs.md" becomes "Thoughts on Hedgehogs [AB-99].md"
This preserves your goal of having the system rightfully not need another source of truth outside the markdown files, but also lets the markdown file carry the identifier across renames without adding a YAML block.
And it lets you find the note in the "open note" dialog box by typing the code, so no other kind of search interface is needed. Or even to find the note with any other filesystem utility if you have your reference code.
Were you inspired by the Zettelkasten Method for your plugin?
The payment processors have been held criminally and civilly liable in court for processing payments for pornhub. I don't see how we can expect Visa/MC to not censor their customers, if we also intend to hold them criminally liable for the actions of their customers in such cases.
If Visa spends years in criminal court because a book store accepted a credit card payment for an illegal book, then yes, expect Visa to start placing limits on card processing for bookstores.
RIP mst and thanks for all the fish. DBIx::Class and Catalyst are still a core part of how I pay the bills.
Since the top comment seems to be judging the worthiness of this individual to work with databases after prison, for those considering working with or hiring someone with a criminal record, I'd beg you to consider:
You're hiring the person as they are today, long after any punishment, rehabilitation, parold, probation, and personal growth. Not who they were at the time of past actions.
Having your own mini trial, where you sit in judgement over the candidate, from your ignorant position of privilege, using whatever details you can dig up with google may be entertaining for you, but is tells you nothing of what kind of employee they might be. Your mock trial may be especially traumatic to endure for the candidate, because their side of the story is rarely included in any reporting you can dig up. Especially for those unfairly convicted.
With everything going on today, do you really trust our justice system to be fair, especially to someone who is not a wealthy and connected straight white male?
If you're only willing to give people a chance when you judge their offence to be trivial by your own ethics, you're not actually providing second chances for those that need it.
Yes. You can restore your icloud backup to another target iphone without wiping the source iphone, as long as the target iphone has enough storage capacity.
Right! Backup planning is not black magic. And neither is testing icloud backups.
It's quite easy to restore an icloud backup to a different phone or even ipad for testing purposes, if one were reliant on icloud to hold their data.
Your phone could become damaged and inoperable every day. From dropping it in the toilet, being stolen, a house fire, etc. If you're "petrified" of losing your data, it's worth the work to ensure your data backup procedures are adequate.

I think everybody can agree that improving efficiency is a good thing
At what point does demanding top efficiency from a human every minute of every work shift cross the line into abuse? I would argue this tool is miles over that that line.
Workplaces should server the workers too, not just the capital interests of the owners.
