Starshield is pretty cool.

V8 is extremely optimized for script startup time.

"In the past, requests went out to a hosted execution service."

They were outsourcing to another company so there's plenty of room for overhead to creep in.

The point is that kids can't break the OS.

Often they don't and it's kind of the point. You could go by Rich, Richie, Rick, Ricky, Dickie... if you choose to call yourself Dick, you know you're going to cause some amount of snickering and you're doing it on purpose.

Also I remember men called him Richard Feynman but a lot of women called him Dick. That's sending a different message.

Artists and authors genuinely believe their work is being stolen by AI. That part isn't a psyop.

There are a couple of data centers that are causing real water, noise, or pollution problems and it doesn't help that one of them is run by Elon Musk.

The chip shortage and resulting price increases are also very real.

And AI is not profitable. There probably is a bubble that will bankrupt some companies (maybe not the ones you've heard of).

When you mix all these facts with pre-existing skepticism of capital and corporate power you get the backlash. It's exaggerated and spinning out of control, but it's rooted in reality.

I would assume clouds count as resellers not customers.

Not including Q1 and Q2 numbers sounds like a hit piece.

It's called Hyperloom.

If the ROCm team can't get enough compute it doesn't bode well for World Labs.

It has a separate address space separated by PCIe so even escaping the hypervisor won't give access to DPU memory.

I see we're doing the "put Sam Altman in jail already" thing again, so y'all may be interested in some comments from law professor Orin Kerr on the topic: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49882566

MS required the NPU to run local language models and the models are used for various AI features like live captions.

This guy should have invented file permissions.

Obviously this research was done before 6.0 Sol and Opus 5.5 came out. Your point stands that the frontier moves quickly and small gains can be eclipsed quickly.

A bunch of countries are suspected of undercounting their population because so many people are living "off the grid" or deliberately overcounting to get more funding. Probably some of the cases are real and some are just conspiracy theories.

In most cases LVT would be the same or lower than current property taxes. Only empty lots would pay more.

A possible compromise is to allow Apple Pay to be a monopoly as long as it doesn't charge any fees.

Claude loves snitching though.

The people abusing Flock are police officers.

Humans seem like the weakest link in surveillance to me. Recent Flock data confirms this.

They seem to not be counting the $1B of GPUs on either side, making the difference pretty small. They also think launching 200 racks of equipment into space will cost $5M.

A dozen billionaires already left California.

My understanding is that LVT would be lower than current property taxes, so it should be viewed as a tax cut for landlords not an increase.

The hacks probably fall under negligence not CFAA but the larger point stands that companies are always responsible for everything they do.

The flip side of this is that fixing the sandboxes should only delay the Singularity by a month or so.

On this topic I'd believe HN before the New Yorker.

It's called USB4 now.

KVM works this time. For the rest you need to calibrate your expectations against mainstream laptops not RMStops.

Ubuntu was curated by Mark Shuttleworth for years. GNOME OS and KDE Linux are also fairly curated. It's not clear that DHH's curation of Omarchy actually created a better distro.
