Don’t set a reminder, just cancel now. If you cancel, you get the rest of the time you paid for and it just doesn’t automatically review, so there’s no penalty to canceling early versus right before the deadline.

Wait is he fucking them? I thought most of these children were born via IVF.
Realistically, I would grieve the loss of my children, who would never be born if I didn’t line things up just right to cause them to happen again. I’d spend more time with my parents, who are getting along in the years, and I’d make the most of my time with them while they’re healthy and happy.
There are a few specifics where I’d try to get some loved ones out of trouble before some critical tipping point that would later cause a bunch of heartache and stress.
There are general things about money and politics I’d probably do differently, knowing about how stocks have performed and what not, but that’s not super interesting to me, because I’m mostly content in my personal life (including my career) and wouldn’t want to upset that balance by doing anything too different from what brought me here.
Well they can pay compensation to people who do work for them: employee salaries, contractor work, etc. So the nonprofit structure might prevent them from paying dividends or stock buybacks or other ways of transferring directly to shareholders in their capacity as shareholders, but nonprofit structure alone isn’t a guarantee that the organization won’t steer excess cash into someone’s pocket.
No reason to believe this is true of this non-profit, but that’s the reason why it’s important to look at the books of nonprofits that you donate to.
I’ve been a general skeptic of exactly how much the power and performance to power stats are attributable to the ARM instruction set or architecture versus the fact that Apple just locks up TSMC’s latest and greatest node for a year before everyone else. AMD’s CPUs are still x86_64 but achieve similar performance per watt as the Apple silicon on the same node and similar TDPs.
So if it turns out that TSMC has the secret sauce, then maybe we don’t need to move laptops over to ARM at all.
Don’t expect me to pay 2 grand for a laptop with no external USB or HDMI ports
HDMI is a trash standard and we should move everyone to Displayport at a minimum, or Thunderbolt. But also, all the MacBook Pros have HDMI.
I was even more frustrated by how bad the built in trackpad
Weird. I think Apple’s trackpad is head and shoulders better than anyone else’s.
The New Yorker’s style guide requires markers for coöperate, coöpt, etc., but it’s non-standard outside of that one particular publication.
Yes, but the tokens are more than just a stream of letters, and aren’t saved in the form of words. The information itself is organized into conceptual proximity to other concepts (and distinct from the text itself), and weighted in a way consistent with its training.
That’s why these models can use analogies and metaphors in a persuasive way, in certain contexts. Mix concepts that the training data has never been shown before, and these LLMs can still output something consistent with those concepts.
And we’d have trouble saying whether a model “knows” something if we don’t have a robust definition of when and whether a human brain “knows” something.
I don’t think this question really makes sense.
DNS is centralized in that there is a root zone that determines who is the canonical authority for each top level domain like .com
or .world
(and the registrar for each top level domain controls who controls each domain under them). But it’s also decentralized in the sense that everyone who controls a domain can assign any subdomains below that, and that anyone can choose to override the name resolving with their own local DNS server (or even a hosts file saved on the device).
The court case here is trying to override the official domain ownership records at specific DNS providers. The problem is that the intermediaries are being ordered by the courts not to follow the central authority.
Federation wouldn’t fit this model: we still want DNS to be canonical where everyone in the world agrees which domain resolves to which IP addresses.
They already got the ISP DNS resolvers.
This particular step, that this article is about, is targeting people who knew enough to switch from their ISP’s DNS resolver to one of these ISP-agnostic DNS providers. So they’re targeting the people who do, and probably not going to be particularly effective at it.
Voyager 2 went with a different trajectory specifically to fly by the outer planets. Voyager 1 went with a more aggressive gravity assist from both Jupiter and Saturn to gain the speed necessary to leave the solar system. So it’s not only that it takes decades to get that far, but also the launch window of when different planets are aligned to make the mission feasible.
How do they even still have energy to send and receive signals? That’s one heck of a durable power source.
It’s literally decaying plutonium-238. And because it decays, it’s putting out less power than when it started. They’ve shut down certain operations to conserve power, and obviously prioritize things like communication back to earth.
I’m not going to pretend to be an expert on this (I worked in cybersecurity in 2000’s but was only entry level, and changed careers before cloud/mobile made things way more complicated), but the general point still seems true: security requires conscious design that discourages poor configuration by client IT, and makes bad practices unviable by not only end users, but also the sysadmins who manage the actual IT resources. Then, things should be limited in impact.
In other words, the manufacturer doesn’t get to wash their whole hands of this thing if their design makes it easy for clients to screw up. In this case, it does sound like these systems were deployed by clients that didn’t have a solid understanding of the relationships between on-prem AD and ADFS and didn’t know how to configure them securely, that’s also a significant documentation/education issue that Microsoft owns some responsibility for.
(Plus in the case of the Solarwinds hack, there were a few other Microsoft vulnerabilities exploited to get to the point where the hackers could traverse the system looking for keys/certificates.)
So I don’t think this particular dude was warning about a non-vulnerability, and it sounds like the “security boundary” response he met with internally is similar to how you’re responding to this report.
I read the article as criticism of the lack of defense in depth, where compromise of a specific server gives access to keys that give near-untraceable access to all servers. Yes, Solarwinds fucked up by putting their keys in a place where someone could access it, but Golden SAML is the technique that makes a breach worse.
I can see an argument for artists choosing to use chaotic processes they can’t really control.
Setting up a canvas and paints and brushes in a particular arrangement in the woods, and letting migratory animals and weather put their mark on the work, and then see what results. That could be art.
And if that can be art, then I guess chaotic, unpredictable AI models can output something that can be art, too.
“Biblically accurate models”
Traditionally they’ve been banned because they don’t do well in crash testing, as they don’t have crumple zones or airbags. Here’s some testing from 2010 by the insurance industry arguing that they shouldn’t be on highways.
They don’t pass US federal crash tests, probably because of the lack of crumple zone, so they can’t be imported until they’re 25 years old. Which doesn’t make them any safer, but I guess rules are rules:
Because the trucks don’t meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, they’re legal to import only 25 years after having been manufactured. Then, it’s up to each state to decide whether to allow them on public roads.
Even if my needs were met I’d still spend a lot of my time achieving wants. Not just stuff I can buy or pay for, but things that bring me satisfaction and contentment. So I’d probably still have a job, just with a little flexibility towards prioritizing job satisfaction over pure pay.
Well, I’m sure it’s true. I’ve started and stopped Prime benefits multiple times.
