Actually, the whole website is fire. There are articles on the same level on how to select T-shirts and pants.

This is the second time I see a reviewer online doing the thing that was common a couple decades ago: actually doing the research.


Do you propose taxpayers to shoulder compensations to AI companies that robbed them of data and jobs? I guess not being absurd is communist now :)

I'm not proposing anything. I don't think it's the government's remit to be honest. But government seizing the means of production is literally the definition of communism.

Shouldn't be a problem, as AI companies expropriated knowledge and jobs.

Nice to see someone going the same path as me!

Haven't read the book or used Hashcat, I have a question. Is there anything yet to generate rainbow tables out of password regex?


Like detecting constriction or loss of integrity of blood vessels, and doing the corresponding intervention.

The saddest thing here is not that it requires some future nanotechnology, but is achievable at the present scientific level, yet too expensive to develop, and wouldn't see FDA permission in a decade or two anyway.


It's quite easy to check responses to other customers in other threads there, and somehow I see quite a lot of "oh, go to that other support" and ghosting.

If you create support ticket on hacker news, then yes, you will probably get it waved. It's somewhat sad that HN is their support forum now.


Send me a PDF of your bill, and I will happily print out 10 copies so I can wave them all above my head


It would make even more sense to rename it to ollama, get a copyright for the name, and see how thieves complain they've been robbed :>


So basically they got fined a cost of single tractor repair, and it didn't even create a legal precedent due to settlement? Someone believed that "will make available" has any consequences, given decades-long tradition to just ignore such agreements? Well, great.


The statement is a bit too strong. It's not malice, it's just plain old stupidity. In the same way as soviet nuclear reactors don't explode, nuclear submarines don't either. Nobody have thought it might happen, nobody was aware, and no special "on call" service for recovering people from sunk submarine ever existed. _Of course_, it would never happen in just 6 hours.

In the same way, if you don't have anyone on-call to recover the backend along with backups and recovery plans, the chance to have production up and running in 6 hours will be zero.

In case of a way more physical thing of "submarine sunk in polar cold waters", it'd take a good 4 hours just to get _something_ there. Not to mention extracting a person from 300ft involves a good plan on avoiding decompression sickness, and you can't really bring a 50-ton decompression bell on a helicopter and hover for half a day. I can hardly imagine what would such a disaster recovery plan even be.


It would be unfair to form such a generalized opinion from a single incident, even it that incident was quite brutal.

However, 4 years of following RU military attempts to take over Ukraine have reinforced my belief that RU army doesn’t give two shits about its personnel. They got plenty of people, and their value seems to exclusively correlate with the person’s usefulness towards the Tsar, which at an individual level is generally zero.


Well, that's precisely what is sinister here.

Those profiling tools don't really care which features are going to be used for predictions. It's just machine learning, and it's indiscriminate. So if you have an extension that correlates with you being Muslim, it will be used for whatever ML predictions they give to other companies, and the worst case will be another "oh we didn't do this intentionally".

Of course, that's not the first time this ever happened in human history, so even if it's not "something inherently sinister", it's just "criminal negligence".
