>keep a machine hosted at a company secure from law enforcement

Your own hardware + continuous video monitoring is probably good enough. The idea is not to keep it secure, but to know when a breach has happened.

Something like the Ergodex DX1: Easily spatially reconfigurable physical keys.

That first article has an interesting assertion about sub-7nm, but is not a great source and doesn’t appear to offer any other details or references.

I would be very surprised if they are able to do anything without EUV.

At this point, I would not be at all surprised if this is a guerrilla tactic for accounts that have not logged in in a while to create engagement/MAU.

Tell me you’ve never measured current with an oscilloscope without telling me that you’ve never measured current with an oscilloscope.

Not quite baked yet, but Makepad is also a thing to keep an eye on.

Correct, but the destination ISP chain (and of course the destination service itself) can equally see the traffic coming from the VPN, and if you have packet metadata (precise timing and packet sizes) from two sources on either side of the VPN, it is trivial to correlate those two streams.

It is my understanding that many ISPs and backbone providers sell or otherwise disclose full detailed packet metadata, including precision timestamps, and that there are companies that aggregate this data across the entire Internet.

At which point your VPN becomes just another hop in the trace.

VPNs, no matter how secure they themselves are, are effective for accessing lightly geo-locked content and defeating unsophisticated analytics and tracking. They are really not a serious privacy solution in any sense, unfortunately.

I don’t think the paper rigorously addresses the case of infinite computing power.

Remember how after 9/11, everyone took personal responsibility for potentially detaining hijackers in-flight?

You could take personal responsibility for having a medical emergency when stuck on tarmac with no air conditioning.

Excellent second-grade analysis of the situation.

Can you give some examples of games that came close to breaking through that maturity/sophistication barrier?

>There’s a reason why no one ships IPAs overseas... They don’t travel well.

Made me chuckle, thanks!

No, Arroyo is written is Rust, but the web front-end is React.

Not as massive an achievement as Proton getting nearly every Windows game in existence running well from unmodified binaries on Linux.

Did you or your colleagues spend much time on considering the darker aspects of your work?

Any interest in redoing the web console in Rust? 8)

>Apple has a system of lenses on a gimbal inside this thing.

Do you have a source for this?

>So with libraries that are consumed by third parties, it's rarely about the number of lines of code. Since you don't really have a definitive list of all usages of your code, things like the changes to `_money_from_dict` making things nullable mean you have to consider all ways in which that might blow up. And like "the public API is the public API, the private API everything goes" is easy to say, but it's so easy to just break other projects with these kinds of changes.

Strongly typed languages, a well-designed API, and senantic versioning can make this problem largely disappear.

For some, programming is a lifestyle, and a culture, and has nothing to do with getting paid.

In my experience, these people and their projects tend to be more interesting.

Note that this only affects structs that are passed by value, so it’s not always an issue and can be worked around.

What are you using ControlNet for? In my experience it’s trivial to get headshot-framed images.

If you like writing your own prompts and experimenting, https://astria.ai can do this kind of thing too.

This is a great (pre-GPT-4) post that goes into the system prompt and its effects: https://minimaxir.com/2023/03/new-chatgpt-overlord/

Are you using any system prompt in your API calls? Note that it does have an explicit domain separation from the user and assistant roles.

I suspect it plays a greater role in GPT-4 as well, i.e. was trained on a wider variety of system prompts to guide the output of the model.

Has the ChatGPT-4 “system” prompt been revealed?

>I don't take my family to church but I do really miss the communal aspects of the whole enterprise, and wish there was a good way to get a similar vibe without the aspects of religion I don't like.

Maybe there's a Unitarian Universalist congregation near you?

Something I've always sort of wondered: If you live on a yacht in international waters, will the US Navy come and pick you up? For someone of Ms. Holmes' level of GTA stars.

The evidence is that I can't even be bothered to look up evidence for you. :-)

Madoff was sentenced when he was 71, so I doubt they spent much time considering the difference between 20 years and life.
