This is good, but will not fly in court. Your honor... I only moved the Picasso...it is still there...
There are ONLY TWO Stories and their details, that we collectively will never see.
1) One could come from the these brave souls that warns about an impending death...but their courage falters on another subject.... From Jacob Coxon to Evan Hubinger or Julie Steele, Samuel Marks, Josh Angels, Mrinank Sharma, Dario Amodei, Demis Hassabis, Geoffrey Hinton, Yoshua Bengio, Stuart Russell....The story of the full datasets they used to train the models, the data they stole, how many PB was, the amounts of data, the nights setting up torrents from unsuspicions IPs, where is it currently stored and how many exabytes is now... the massive data cleansing and data quality program to conform all the different formats, the internal discussions on the ethics of the stolen files, how large was the team, the CSAM content they sucked with their automated scripts and who was handling it internally, the porn, the massive amount of porn that is after all 80% of the internet, the leaks their data sucked with their automated scripts...
And the other...
2) The Epstein Files.
The quote from Dijkstra stands on its own...quoting a famous person stating something independently demonstrable, does not magically turn the statement into an appeal to authority :-))
>> a man who was a major proponent of formal methods.
No he was not, but you see, its irrelevant in the context of the argument you failed to defend. And Dijkstra fails your purity test.
He himself wrote that he saw "no specific virtue in being a formalist" and would use formal methods "when I feel they help."
Apparently their lawyers never got the memo that the tests already guaranteed the software...
"Program testing can be used to show the presence of bugs, but never to show their absence"
- Edsger DijkstraDurability is about: "If I successfully store an object in S3, how unlikely is S3 to permanently lose that object because of storage failures?"
It does not answer: "Will I be able to access that object, after a rain of Shahab-1 or Shahab-2 burn all data centers in the 3 availability regions across which my S3 bucket is spread out..."
Jesus, I cant stand formal methods people...
An extraordinary statement itself that shows the difference between a proper cloud where they AZs are at least 60 to 100 miles apart...and Google or Microsoft... pretend clouds...where those AZs are just firewalls across the same data center...
A perfect example of a claim they never made.
He is also violating an enormous amount of compliance requirements, by disclosing the location of the data center, and having strange people inside making a tour. Did he vet the crew and their accompanying party? Did one of them accidentally left some kind of device within the insider perimeter? There at least one or two ISO certifications he is violating there. As customer I would be asking questions...
AWS always made very clear they wont copy your data to another region as only you know what your compliance and data residency requirements are. But at the same time they always said, its up to you to come your with your disaster recovery strategy based on your project requirements. And it has always been the case copying your critical data to another region is one of the first things on your check list.
And their Well Architected Framework and other docs make this plenty clear:
"It is a good practice to always make backups of your data, and copy these to another site (such as another AWS Region)."
Also...
"All DR strategies require that data sources are backed up within the AWS Region, and then those backups are copied to the recovery Region."
And also for single-Region / Multi-AZ architectures:
"Where possible, you should also copy data backups to another AWS Region as an additional layer of protection."
"AWS Architecture Blog — Disaster Recovery Architecture on AWS, Part II" has a whole section named "Backup to another AWS Region": "By copying your data to another Region, you can handle the largest scope of disasters."
https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/architecture/disaster-recovery-...
Or "Creating backup copies across AWS Regions" - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/aws-backup/latest/devguide/cross...
This whole thread of people literally saying , "on no I trusted them...I did not know they could lose my data", with no technical context...is the the kind of incompetence I would expect from a generation raised on vibe coding and llm prompt driven miseducation...
This has nothing to do with Oracle. All good that you hear from Java in the last few years, is the great community and good old people from Sun working at Oracle.
You mean training? Yeah we call that training an LLM in my backyard...
You have access to all the frontier models, but...your inputs are not shared with the model vendors...neither are used to train the next model.
Why am I even doing the Amazon board job for them!??
- Had his own defense lawyer endorse his Democratic opponent.
- Eight of his own senior aides reported him to the FBI.
- A security camera recorded him taking another lawyer’s $1,000 pen.
- Accumulated a 15 property portfolio worth $9 million while earning a $153,750 government salary.
- Sixty Republicans in the Texas House voted to impeach him.
- Accepted a $100,000 legal defense gift from a businessman whose company had faced a Medicaid billing investigation.
- Admitted violating securities-registration requirements.
What an endorsement of a large fringe of US voters...
What about the FBI do their job, and doing a prep walk of OpenAI management in handcuffs, for hacking companies left and right?
