Have you ever been to The Mystery Spot[1]? It is a fun tourist trap with all sorts of conundrums like that.

The M2 money supply is ~4x higher now than in 1999. Does that indicate there is a lot more runway now, than then, at least on that metric?

NH banned ALPRs, with some narrow exceptions.

Sorry, I wasn't trying to be pedantic. I was trying to make the point (which I think is in line with your point) that the fact that AI is involved here doesn't make a difference. It is a tool, but the people using the tool are (as always) responsible for the outcome.

But machines don't do things. People do things, and they use tools/machines to do those things more easily or efficiently.

Betting against dumb people is often a good strategy.

The tracked set is built from FAA registry data

So I imagine planes in other countries exist, but the US FAA doesn't have data on them.

So, if you see a 5, you are probably fine. If it gets up to 6 or 7, maybe start worrying.

But I bet if you filter for airports that business jets park at, the percentage of airports without towers is much lower than the overall average.

Yeah, they do sat they only want tails from squirrels harvested primarily for food; they don't expect or want people to hunt squirrels just the sell the tails.

Mepps buys the tails, they make fishing lures from them: https://www.mepps.com/squirrel-tail/

I see what you mean, but isn't this an issue with any filesystem backup tool? Or is there something about untracked files in a git workspace that is different, that I'm not seeing?

Sorry, what are you saying shouldn't be done? Backing up untracked/modified files in a bit repo? Or compressing the .git folder and backing it up as a unit?

This is a good point, but you might expect them to back up untracked and modified files in the backup, along with everything else on your filesystem.

What do you use/recommend that are better alternatives?

Could you use claude via aws bedrock?

I thought Wayland was different from X11, and didn't allow this. But I'm far from an expert on this topic so I'd like to learn more.

That's how they worked in Soviet Russia, right?

permitted a single ECS task role "read access to every secret in the account, including the production Redshift master credential."

...

noting that the stolen information was old and consisted mostly of non-critical details

So I guess 'mostly' is doing a lot of heavy lifting, and they hadn't rotated the credentials in a long time

Like the headline said, you had to be there...

Of course, nostalgia slop can exist for any period. But it can be interesting to stop and think about how the little details of everyday life have changed over the years.

Yes. And I'm sure the next administration will as well. These things only ratchet in one direction.

You would still be able to use the telnet client to connect to an SMTP server on TCP port 25, just not port 23, right? I don't think that part changed here.

Or Simple Sabotage[1]?

Maybe this doesn't beep at you if you take your hands off the wheel?

And people think that is a good thing?

Okay, but "fad-use-of-GPU bros" doesn't roll off the tongue as well.

Why would a thief post a photo of a stolen vehicle? Are they trying to sell it whole? I can't imagine that is very common, since the buyer won't be able to register it, right? Aren't most stolen vehicles disassembled (chop shops, etc)?

Yep, this is what I was thinking. It was part of the detente negotiated to end the "drone" hysteria about this time last year.

They operate on the t-mobile network, so they would be limited by that, at the very least.

I'm not sure if t-mobile operates in other countries?

I think the idea is to fill in the ellipses with even/odd numbers, up to 4B.

You know, to save the performance cost of processing the input as a string, and chomping off all but the last character.

Like many in the US, I saw this somewhat late. Did the OpenAI disclosure come out first? Did Mixpanel notify OpenAI (due to contractual obligations), who then investigated and ripped Mixpanel out of their systems? And then OpenAI disclosed it publicly, forcing Mixpanel to disclose publicly?
