Author here. I've been struggling to characterize what has made me so uneasy about the Hugging Face incident. It finally clicked for me this AM: our threat modeling priors are all broken. You should assume every threat actor has nation state level capabilities, and move to an assumed breach model.

Love the idea of using page rank. Right now, there is so little adoption of vouch that I opted for the most basic thing.

Are there examples of the prompt or transcripts for the human testing?

Dumb question - What actually needs to be done to close the gap?

I don't know why so many people here are shitting on you guys. It is an impressive demo and launch and a wide-open market. I'm rooting for you, guys. There's an easy opening even just after the "inbox" for the security alert use case.

A candid reflection of one tech startup's journey so far.

Nice! I did something similar with GPT 3.5 and slack https://rosslazer.com/posts/fine-tuning/

One of our founders wrote a blog series on this https://www.observeinc.com/blog/why-observe-part-3-the-platf.... It all boils down to this snippet:

– Ability to ingest 100s of terabytes to petabytes of data per day, and store those for months to years.

– Ability to provide a delightfully interactive user experience, despite managing terabytes of data.

– Ability to work efficiently with semi-structured data (i.e. the messy slop you find in logs).

– Ability to efficiently execute the kinds of band-joins and window analytic functions needed for us to realize efficient queries on Resources.

– Unit economics that make sense for the Observability use-case.

Just fixed this. Thank you! I just got my first ever hugo blog spun up last night and am still ironing out some kinks.

Yeah personally I hate JIRA. I have no idea why their cloud is so slow for SELECT statements with 10 items, field config incomprehensible, or features randomly churn on weekly basis. That being said we evaluated other options as a team and were not convinced that the newer tooling was worth it. Our plan B was to spin up Bugzilla since we leave the project/task management process up to each team. If anyone has seriously found something better we'd love to try it out.

A few reasons (caveat: this was all in early 2020): 1) We kinda got forced into it since most of our customers were using it. 2) GSuite kept annoying changing what was in our plan for Google Meet. 3) The video/application audio sharing and quality felt superior than zoom at the time.

How is that? Did you consider any other tools?

So datadog for logging?

It would be cool to build a clickbait classifier. Anyone interested?

I guess but I don't really know. Lots of people have Cassandra in production. I suppose there is a certain segment of that market that needs a super high performance version, but is it really that big?

I don't get it. Is this just a faster Cassandra? What's their competitive niche?

Ditto. The CFAA is pretty draconian. Be careful peeps.

Why not just log your visits and explore them in something like Splunk?

Hopefully other people that get this email will google it and see this post. I'm sure many non-technical people fall for this sort of thing.
