GP told you how they don't work, but not how they do:

Current image generators work by training models to remove artificial noise added to the training set. Take an image, add some amount of noise, and feed it with it's description as inputs to your model. The closest the output is to the original image, the highest the reward function.

Using some tricks (a big one is training simultaneously on large and small amounts of noise), you ultimately get a model that can remove 99% noise based only on the description you feed it, and that means you can just swap out the description for what you want the model to generate and feed it pure noise, and it'll do a good job.

Apart from the complexities added by having to build this in the first place, this works, but requires a desktop environment, which is not true of ssh.

You could make the argument that this could be an off-the-shelf product you simply install, but then the default port for it because as big of a target as port 22 as soon as it becomes commonplace enough, except you don't have 20+ years of open-source security research in it, and now you're relying on AWS not being now in your region to connect to your servers.

I am nowhere near an expert but from what i know:

Having many qubits is of course vital to most quantum algorithms, but there's a good reason you can't simply run a quantum algorithm a qubit at a time until you've ran them all: you need all the qubits in the processor to be entangled to each other, so that the wave function collapses across all of them.

Here IBM has achieved this reliably across 2 qubits and with record processing speed. I don't think they were the first to achieve it at all, but this is a new record in terms of the important metrics beyond number of qubits.

I watched the video of your talk and it seems impressive. I work in an IP design firm, though I don't have any decision power there I could get you a foot in the door. If you're interested in trying to convince the brass, could you send an email to Eli dot senn at dolphin dot fr?

I mean, that's what happened. I don't know how else I could phrase this.

Right but the value proposition of Dropbox wasn't the tech it was built on, it was the fact they gave you free cloud storage in exchange for an email address.

What!? The entire ad industry is a scam to everyone involved? Who could have for seen this?

US doctrine says that the perpetrator can be anywhere, they're getting sued near the victim. Most courts in the world have similar doctrine, as that allows suing any foreign national you can extradite to you instead of having to e.g. sue in a Chinese court.

That's what you should use, yes. It's a bit different in enterprise because you want to stagger the restarts of all your servers to avoid browning out the recently restored power, but for an at-home system that's fine.

All tools at use in the last gen industry (40-12nm) currently make extensive use of standard cell librairies provided by foundries. I don't expect current gen nor next gen to change anything.

These boxes are also great for running a k8s cluster if you want to experiment.

IIRC a part of copyright "activating" is publishing the content in the first place, so I don't think GP would have a good case to begin with, not that it matters.

I've done that. I kept a windows install on the side for the few games that don't have a permissive enough anticheat, but I basically never use it anymore since The Finals has allowed Proton. It's going great.

The main problem with canaries is that it's dead easy for a government to remove them from existence, simply issue subpoenas to every website that has one.

The users could then decide to jump ship but realistically they won't.

That's fair enough.

I mean. The idea sounds fun but doing photolithography on a pipe's surface sounds like absolute hell.

This specific attack is unable to exploit this, because it requires that the TCP connection be already established. By the time the user had gotten the server's public key, you are unable to hijack the connection.

If your server has something that listens on port 22, you just have to wait for like 5 minutes

Plenty of brands offer DLP-based printers, like the elegoo mars 4 DLP.

My thoughts exactly. This also applies to not cars. American (and indeed global) tech companies are security nightmares, and no amount of posturing about china specifically will fix it. "Great job Patrick we saved the city", they said in front of meta after banning TikTok.

I'd like the record to show that the upgraded mobile apps are significantly worse than the old ones. The old ones are currently still available to download, for now.

It's very much not an overloading issue. This always happens, even at 3 AM.

The HOA is generally allowed to put a lien on your house, through the contract you were forced to sign with them.

I see this in my french city, there's a particular spot on my commute where my phone (mediatek) will report 2 bars of 5G but speeds will actually be around 3G. I've also noticed other people on the tram having their videos buffer at that spot, so it's not just me. The carriers do not care, of course.

I think there's just some of these areas where operational conditions make the towers break in some specific way.

No you don't. You could also simply not drink the poison.

I think at least a few photography nerds would notice the 30W white blob coming from where you're standing. Now whether that would get you in trouble...

I think the intent comes from the fact that most people never use any other address that 127.0.0.1 (yes, I know about docker DNS). It sort of comes across as if you were "wasting" a large block of adresses on functions that are seldom used. In reality though, this isn't a solution and we should really just go forwards with ipv6.

French uses "Moteur" because it doesn't have a word for "engine". The closest is "engin", but that means "contraption" and generally applies to the entire class of "large mechanical devices that move".

Both Motor and Engine are generally translated into french as "Moteur"

There is a YouTube video about a content creator who got a huge AWS bill out of byte spider (bytedance's scraper) indexing his site incredible numbers of times.

Very nice! This could easily be adapted to the Ares Expedition expansion/other game thing:

Remove production of titanium and steel, remove energy entirely. Players start at 5 TL and 0 production everywhere. They can also produce cards, maybe add a pop-up like "draw x cards now!" Whenever production happens?
