This was underwhelming, but I like his websites styling.
I'd love to be able to connect Azure AI and Vertex to this (for the full range of models it uses)
TL;Dr billionaire buys company that make UPSs that are connected directly to voting machines and allowed to have their firmware/drivers updated without checks. Same company contracts Palantir and a new Starling contract - the implication being they've snuck SIM cards into their UPSs and are communicating via Starlink from what should be airgapped systems connected directly to voting machines.
Of course why go to the hassle of Starlink when you can just use any cell provider, and surely surely hardware changes to the UPS, like adding a SIM card, are audited?
Do Google use all the AI studio traffic to train etc?
We have to write code that round robins every region on retries to get past how overloaded/poorly managed vertex is (we're not hitting our quotas) and yes that's even with retry settings on the SDK.
Read timeouts aren't configurable on the Vertex SDK.
I'm very unfamiliar with IIS hosting though, does it support any kind of containerisation/deployment immutability at all?
