Random non technical executive goes to a login page, and a popup happens on an external device like a phone or keychain dongle, watch, or any secondary display that asks "Allow aws.amazon.com root access to open browser tab on laptop xyz?" and if the page you are on right now says "doordash.com" and you did not ask to decrypt aws root credentials, then you say "nope, that does not seem right" and the attack is stopped cold.
The first mistake was letting non technical executive have aws root access in the first place, but the password manager only releasing a single credential at a time with a physical button press on a trusted screen can still be a last line of defense for our most sensitive credentials.
Being user friendly and being able to have any defense at all against malware are not mutually exclusive.
i don't see the point of cursor when vsc + codex extension does the same thing. i don't use autocomplete anymore (who writes code anymore? lol) any and anyone using grok unironically is also probably a moron.
i only tell VC type people or others from whom i want something "oh yeah grok is cool" if they mention it, because they're always sucking off Elon
i know they are (or claim to be). Im extremely unconvinced that meaningfully changes the flawed economics of nuclear power. I would love to be proven wrong and a wave of innovative economically competitive nuclear technology emerges... possible, but seems vanishingly unlikely.
I think we'll see a few companies and projects connected to the administration get grants and tax breaks and favors, pull a few headlines, seem like there's movement. Maybe even build something! but ultimately be a meaningless footnote in the energy transition. Just another grift for the most corrupt admin in US history.
Because having everything there designed to kill you (even the weeds are deadly, see gympie-gympie) and it being located 3km from the surface of the sun isn't enough, let's factor in externalities as well.
If I wanted to hide out from an apocalypse, I'd move to Heard Island, as long as you're not bothered by the 10% tariffs.
The Sumerians used a sexagesimal notation system; the two lengths would be 5.10.0 and 5.50.0 (which together add up to 11.0.0, FWIW), while all of the other king lengths are 8.0.0, 10.0.0, or 12.0.0.
In the final benchmark tests, DeepSeek V4 Flash achieved a score of 82.02%, coming close to the 83.8% score of Claude Fable 5 XHigh—effectively giving a "Flash" model the capabilities of a flagship model.
I was at a gas station today that sells tobacco. No ads. Its because even displaying tobacco products, let alone advertising them, is not allowed in that jurisdiction.
I'll bet you didn't see any cartoon camels or doctors recomending a brand though, because even where tobacco ads are legal, many tobacco ads are no longer legal.
Whether you see ads, and what kind of ads you see is highly regulated. That's the whole point,
There's TUI and there's CLI. TUI has always been poor man's GUI, back in the day it was even literally called GUI. CLI on the other hand has zero similarities with GUI. You write the command and the command executes and that's it. Writing commands is inherently the most accessible form of controlling computers, second only to dedicated single-purpose buttons that don't mesh well with this whole "general purpose computing" thing.
All good points. However, it's not a safe assumption that everyone operates that way. People probably use the flagship models because that's what they know. Sure, some probably just use the default, in this case Grok.
Also, it's a signal more than anything. OpenAI pulls out of Cursor. Then Anthropic and Google does as well. Then you no longer have "Cursor" you have Grok.
Grok doesn't have the best reputation in general, regardless if you're tech savvy or not.
The idea is to provide overarching guidance, but when there is devil in the details, leave that up to courts to consider when there is a real actual issue at play, rather than legislators in the ivory tower theorizing about how things might play out.
The statute gives the general intent, but with an understanding that until the shit hits the fan in an actual court case, noone will have truly considered the detailed ramifications, so leave some intentional ambiguity there for the courts to resolve on real, actual, grounded cases rather than theorizing.
And if the legislature disagrees with a courts opinion about the ambiguity it left, it is very free to clarify in statute, which will override the court! (Unless the issue is constitutional, in which case the legislature is very free to draft a constitutional amendment!)
A service can't be refused for reasons like religion or race, a power company cannot refuse to serve a customer because they're black or Muslim. If a company is acting as a platform or provider they should serve customers regardless of their views and this should give them protection for being liable for their customers actions.
Do you think providers should be allowed to refuse service because they don't like certain customers views?
While it’s important to make this explicit, at what point do we just assume a high-reliability UPS is table stakes?
Of course, if you need SIL2 type reliability then you need to assume any given hardware component can spontaneously combust and become a total loss, at which point the data loss caused by a power cut is a rounding error.
I mean like the original article, I gotta say, Tabs vs Spaces.
I just prefer TUIs, I think if you prefer GUIs you should very much use them and ask for more of them, but if you prefer TUIs please do use those too. I could go into all the reasons I prefer TUIs but this is a HN comment not a manifesto.
Kodi is essentially a media player; it's not a general purpose TV UI like Plasma Bigscreen. Yes, there are a couple of distros out there like OSMC designed to use Kodi for everything, but in my experience they are way too limited. And you really do want a Web browser for streaming, because you are unlikely to find dedicated Linux apps for whatever streaming platform you intend to use. You could presumably run Waydroid and use Android apps, but using the Bigscreen virtual keyboard or a remote with a keyboard on the back is much easier.
I think the damage that Meta has done not only to children, but to all human beings alive and online today, cannot be put into monetary terms.
Meta should be destroyed and forced to stop all operations immediately. I think it would be quite an interesting wake-up call when we would then realize that... nothing of value was lost and the world will just go on - just a little bit saner and happier.
The "great man" theory has been (rightfully) banished from most public discourse, the only remaining holdout is startups. The whole point of VC firms is that startups have no chance of success without backing. Often times the founders don't put in the work beyond the prototype (and what a minimal prototype it can be), their VC partners stock them with top-tier employees who build the thing, the founders are young figureheads/mascots who "sell" the startup perception. Often times the founders don't even come up with the idea, they are gifted an idea by a VC partner, you see this when startups "pivot" to something completely different.
The reports that were altered were public reports at the ISW from open reporting, not government intelligence. If you lose a war because you based your tactics and strategy off of media reports instead of your own intel, you weren't going to win that war anyway.
That said, I recognize the broader point. Betting on everything, especially things that betters can directly influence is incredibly dangerous.
It some name of a specific court, just not the place name?
Or is it special kind of court and “9” is some sort of level? Importance or hierarchy related? Escalation level? (Assuming your SC eventually is also at the top like in India)
