How will they ensure they continue working or train replacements if their parent company no longer employs or pays them? What's to stop them leaving the country?
They are _not_ hosting UK government data in the US. They offer on-premise and self-managed cloud offerings, which are often used where data sovereignty is important. Additionally, customers often manage access control - including for Palantir employees - themselves, so it would not be a simple "pull the power plug" if the US/UK relationship went awry.
The commenters below are confusing two things - Rust binaries can be dynamically linked, but because Rust doesn’t have a stable ABI you can’t do this across compiler versions the way you would with C. So in practice, everything is statically linked.
For what it's worth, a friend of mine is a lawyer in a well-known hedge fund and he gets access to their funds too (funds that would not otherwise be accessible without making a substantially larger investment I believe).
This is false and represents a poor understanding of how these models work - they do abstract concepts and no you can't trivially get training images out.
On the other hand, Facebook went from about 4,000 employees to over 70,000 in the same time period, so given how much Apple's business has grown in the last decade (when they released the iPhone 5) it seems pretty impressive that they grew only ~2x.
How is that different with LLMs versus badly-written human generated content? Most clickbait/SEO articles are as poorly researched as they come, and shouldn't be assumed to be accurate anyway.
> Anybody who lost their sense of taste or smell took months to recover that. Loss of smell or taste is almost 50% for Covid prior to Omicron. Even with Omicron, it's about 20%.
And yet, in more anecdata, everyone I know who had taste issues recovered them in much less than a month with no long-term impacts.
So there's a bunch of existing intermediaries, which is bad, and to fix that we're going to add the exact same set of intermediaries, but on top of bitcoin, which means its good?
Germany has reference pricing for their drugs system and doesn't seem to have a supply issue. Genuine question, is there something that makes you think that wouldn't be true for the US?
Today you could do this with a copy of Photoshop, but in practice this isn't really a concern for most people. What makes you think it'll be different with deepfakes?
Yeah, I really do find this kind of attitude strange. If it's not safe now, it never will be. Guess a large portion of society is still waiting for COVID to be "over", as if the virus will magically disappear.
It's harder but very much possible to switch company on an H1B visa - my partner did this recently and while there's a bunch of legal work and waiting around, for tech companies it's all just part of the process.
I think it's reasonable for Apple to assume that if you kept the old charger, you also had the old cable for it which would also work with the new iPhone.
Doesn't the example of a florida company just using real pictures suggest this isn't such a big change? "We can't trust that the picture represents a real person's opinion" was true before, and it's true now - it's just that the barrier to creating fake people is a little lower.
I like this idea too. Sadly I doubt regulators would go for it without substantial modification - all lie-flat beds have to be in the upright position for take-off and landing at the moment, for example.
Whilst it's certainly valuable to make people aware of the limitations of the security systems we use, this shouldn't really come as a surpre. If someone is close enough and motivated enough to take a high-res photo of your face just to access your mobile device, they're also probably close enough to film you typing in your passcode - sure, you might do that less often, but for an average user are either of those things a real concern? The security model hasn't really been "broken" because if someone steals my phone they don't have access to the device by default.
This is an awesome idea. I live in the UK and often find products available in America that have exorbitant shipping fees or are impossible to buy over here. (e.g this TV http://www.amazon.com/Seiki-Digital-SE39UY04-39-Inch-Ultra/d...)
The current option is package forwarding companies. They usually charge a pretty high fee so they're not worth it. But this is definitely something I'd pay for, so long as it's priced well.
This is exactly what I've done with KeyRemap4MacBook. It has built in options for switching around numbers and symbols, as well as changing {} and []. Makes so much more sense for a programmer, and you can make multiple sets of options so you can disable them if someone else needs to use your machine for a bit.
The reason Angular has silent failure by default is because failure is designed to happen all the time - this means angular expressions can deal with data that hasn't arrived/hasn't been created yet.
This might sound like a bad thing, but it actually makes the page work without confusing the expression syntax with endless or statements.
That said, I do see your point - it's frustrating to find something not working due to a typo in an expression, with no errors to point it out. A halfway solution could be some kind of debug directive/tag that logs when an expression doesn't evaluate? Or perhaps something integrated into Angular Batarang? (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/angularjs-batarang...)
It always amazes me to see how much people don't realise that we are unlike any other society that has existed on this planet before us. Globally connected and scientifically advanced in the most important ways makes the past a terrible prediction of the future. Exciting times.
