Wow, i really dislike your argument. So instead of cleaning their acts on corruption, war crimes, and other abuses, the Democrats should just be held accountable to nothing because Trump is worse?
I'm sorry but your mindset is precisely what got Trump elected. The democrats abandoned the working people, propped up the military industrial complex even more, and enriched CEOs and bankers. Trump propaganda is not the reason people are not voting for them.
Just look at DSA. Why do you think so many both democrats and republicans end up supporting DSA candidates? Because they are the only mainstream candidates who are not 100% corrupt.
You don't know that. We're at the point where the NSA can assuredly break RSA-1024. We know they have sufficient processing power, and it would be silly of them not to have developed that capability.
"But they're not going to spend resources breaking my router!" No, not your router specifically. But batch GCD gives sqrt speedup over multiple keys, potentially 10's to 100's of millions of keys at once with off-the-shelf GPU clusters. Looking at that many keys at once tends to discover low-entropy biases common in consumer router hardware, which makes brute-forcing new keys from those devices trivial to do.
If you are actually operating a service relying on RSA-1024 security, it is almost certainly pwoned.
Problem is, public thinks that the government is corrupt but it doesn't impact their voting choices. Public is OK with corruption.
If you look at many deeply corrupt countries, corruption is beneficial for majority of population there. As people in Belarus used to complain to Russians some 20 years ago, "in Belarus we live very poorly because Lukashenka does not allow us to steal unlike your bosses", and they were right.
No, I’m referring to something else. Not the next word task. Being able to know whether you know something. Next time you encounter a child, ask them something they’re likely to be ignorant of, and see they’re able to say “I don’t know”.
While I support equality between biological sexes this had some ill effects.
Giving birth is a woman job. Breastfeeding is a woman's job. Replacing breast milk with something else might be one of the causes of allergies and other ill effects (I'm guessing).
To me it looks like women want to be compensated for the unpaid work of birthing children and taking care of them during their upbringing.
No one fucking likes unpaid work. It's not right.
For me this if the current feminism and I do support it.
It's also a biased, lopsided report. Guy I know who was an EV pioneer in California said it was so bad that, even though his career consisted of promoting EVs, he told people to avoid watching it because it presents such a skewed picture. Imagine it's been made by Michael Moore to put it into perspective. From what I can remember, and this was 20 years ago, his summary was that the EV1 was introduced purely to meet the ZEV mandate but in practice the vehicles were "saleproof" (his words). There wasn't any conspiracy to kill them.
Not sure why the complicated setup with Gemini. I assume you are on a Codex or Claude plan (100 or 200 EUR/USD/m). The model will just pull datasheets and use a combination of conversion to text and looking at bitmap renderings of the PDF. Haven't had that dramatic quality issue you mentioned. When the model isn't sure, it will just keep looking until it understands the datasheet clearly. But yes, it needs the datasheets.
The agent should have full access, and be told what not to do, and this should be enough for it to follow the rules. You can actually catch the clanker cheating this way, because it will just search the web for the answer outright and it will be obvious. Any deviation should be then punished.
Hypothesis: The reason new models are exceptional at hacking is because all labs are training their models to break out of sandboxes. This is caused by insufficient oversight, and picking checkpoints based on KPIs, not on true in depth analysis.
Also things like chronic disease and violence are a "natural" part of life but we seek to minimize or eliminate them, why do we have to accept a "natural" death and not attempt to put it off as long as possible?
> the most obvious being an ever-increasing population
This notion seems to be commonly accepted as bad without being properly examined.
Why is a larger population in and of itself a problem? Lots of societies throughout history have used less resources than we have and we have superior tech now. We are well within our abilities to use the same or less resources with a much larger population. Why should there be a limit based solely on undefined notions of "too many"?
Previous reality probably won't return... although you never know. I think a lot of the world would breathe a sigh of relief and get back to normal under a more rational American leadership. Unlike Brexit, we haven't literally burned our bridges.
I think it's important to understand that there's a difference between American right wing populism and the British form. Brexit was a self inflicted wound whose harm was almost entirely limited to Britain. If anything, it shored up some European resolve against the anti-EU parties for a time.
On the contrary, if the isolationist wing of Trump's party had its way, American withdrawal from the world would have a far worse impact on the stability of European politics and concrete strategic defense.
I'm a 2nd generation American ... my family is Polish and Ukrainian. I had / have the option to reclaim citizenship elsewhere, both in and out of the EU. I've lived in France and Spain, Czechia and Argentina, and in 15 countries in total since 2004. I didn't choose to be born in America but I also can't imagine a world where it doesn't retain military and financial supremacy. The vacuum would be immense and the only powers which could fill it are, for lack of a better word, evil. I believe the only option is to resuscitate and improve America, because without it exercising political power, the whole world will instantly be on fire.
before clicking the link, for a split second I thought the article was going to be about an image host where you get the resource not by URI but a description of the image. Imagine a world of webs where the “html” consists not of formal markup but of prose that describe the structure, css and javascript. The images don’t have a src, the alt would probably suffice.
What kind of cost are you looking at and how many people could use it? I’d be interested to know what the payback period is like, because Claude code is getting ridiculously expensive.
> am i missing something here? I have a rails app, and it sends text messages (booking confirmations). It happens to use AWS SNS for that. I noticed today that not all messages are going through (it sends, but not all will be received). E.g. all +1 (US) numbers don't receive the actual messages! (shocking!). Same for UK and a bunch of other places. I set up SNS logging to observe what's going on. But I can't beleieve this. I'll have to do some various registrations for things for each country to satisfy their requirements and make any code adjustments necessary so SNS uses those attributes and the messages start arriving. But taking a step back, that's a lot of fucking work, and I wonder if using SNS was a mistake - are there similar services that don't require you to do that, e.g. so all that registration BS is done for you and you just provide a number and a message and it sends?
Answer:
> The ugly thing you’ve discovered is that “send SMS to arbitrary phone numbers worldwide” is no longer really a single global service.
Sharing to HN in case someone can solve this (i.e. an API that takes 2 arguments: a message and a phone number and it 'just sends').
Education, healthy media environment, healthy culture of understanding and respect. Exactly everything the conservatives have been pushing against since decades
Get a job where you’re soldering all day, or doing audio repair or something like that. Embrace the fumes. Sloppily test live equipment. Remove and replace amplifier chips on amp boards 8 hours a day. Any company near you importing large amounts of audio or dj or stage equipment from China will need someone doing repairs and QC.
