Clearly a different situation considering the guy was in a rental vehical with GPS.

Of course their is no reasonable expectation of privacy here. It's not his car lol. The LEARN db query was auxillary to the precedent here.

I can't see the jump your making at all or how this precedent holds any would hold water in the case of a innocent party. Its probably just a matter of time until the perfect case is presented and new case law established. Precedents change you know?

If the city hires enough police officers, yes. It'd almost certainly require an unfathomably large budget, but it's not impossible.

If the precedent was set based on this idea. It will fall apart with further scrutiny.

I really don't understand how people got this idea in their head that their license plates are private information . How do red light cameras identify cars? How does parking enforcement work? By recording people's license plates. The whole reason why we mandate that cars display license plates to is to facilitate identifying vehicles.

I don't think that is where the crux of the issue lay.

Maybe provide sources, or point out a specific claim on the Tor project website that you feel overestimates the capabilities or protections.

BGP attacks are largely defeated by onionservices.

And while governments have the ability to create exit nodes, so does anybody.

From AGI to ASI 1 month ago

Took awhile to read. My general takeaway is it's so amazing our drive to make things more efficient. We never slow down do we. Kinda hoping we hit a hard boundary of physics to be honest.

I didn't dive into the reference on why the guy thought our slow data processing is an advantage, but it does seem well tuned that we don't think like these models.

We would go mad and nothing would make sense.

Reminds me of the fun fact about the distance of the sun to the earth. Oddly tuned for our existence. Or when the anesthesiologists knocks out gamma waves and we skip through time in an instant. Why do the gamma waves operate like our lightswitch?

Anyways, since the start of the paper was sure I might use AI to summarize, here is AI's summary response using the personality of fry from futurerama.

Entropy 1 month ago

I too enjoy this topic. Go down this rabbit hole far enough and you realize there is a chance dev/urandom is completely predictable don't ask me how I know this.

Looks really cool, as both a software developer and a custom home builder I think this is great.

I noticed it can only draw hip roofs.

You need more alot more training data of good looking houses. I'm sure it's taken a lot of effort to get these things working, but these houses are lacking some character to me.

I think this is a great idea. Have you thought about trying to hire architects or builders?

It was trained from experts telling older models what to do. They had agreements with these people who already did this stuff all day.

The benefit with the models is that you can get rid of alot of the grunt work and just try a massive amount of things that might work all at once in a short amount of time in a automated fashion.

I get the logical deduction that takes place for not being able to truly know if others are conscious but you have to put your self in a spacey place to really not be confident others might not be conscious.

It's not a difficult leap to assume a twin brother is conscious. If you think it is, why do you think this?

So, maybe we should change the name from Fully Homomorphic to something else. The schema your describing sounds like leaving the key under the mat for only parts of the data.

Fully sounds like Alice could process the data in absolutely anyway she would like. This schema sounds to complex to become useful for anything but a narrow set of capabilities. It sounds like it would be more effective for Alice and Bob to sign an agreement with each other than for bob to shape his data in a format useful for Alice to run her processes on it.

Why do we need to muddy the water of what encryption means to make the FHE schema work.

Hopefully the billionaires are happy with the reward at the end of the tunnel.

I suspect they may envy the laymens position in life eventually. You loose alot becoming wealthy in the monitary sense. There are many ways to define richness and wealth beyond what society defines it as.

As they say, more money more problems.

I exclusively build stuff that I think is cool for me and my friends but I have little drive to market these things and plus they are designed to be completely free forever so I don't think I'll ever be a billionaire.

Image Compression 1 month ago

I love image and video compression. For fun, I made my own and managed to squeeze an image of myself into byte level file sizes.

It's amazing to me how we much we can fill in the blanks to make something recognizable with such little data.

That sounds like the way. Everyone trains their own small problems to maximally compressed weights and then merges.

I walked into a gas station the other day because the pump did not print the recipt. I asked the cashier for the receipt and she said I needed to download the app in order to get a receipt.

Pure insanity.

I want to build a modern version of a code book. Something that uses zero encryption at all, yet contains everything I could ever want to say.

It seems like once encryption took over the art of codebooks kinda went away but I still find the history of them really interesting and think a modern take would be fun to build.

I don't understand the hype around FHE. FHE sounds like a fancy way to say my data is only partially encrypted and we can still gain all the insights we want without technically unencrypting it.

I don't want my encrypted payloads to betray me in any of the ways FHE wants it too.
