Yeah, the first amendment doesn’t apply to private companies, but we really, really need a digital bill of rights

SFTP is just FTP over SSH… Also, FTP is essentially one small step away from code execution, even on a secure network it’s better to use SFTP

SSH isn’t many things, it’s one connection type through which you can do many things. You can’t simply cat a file over without being able to handle the throughput gracefully, otherwise you’d have to design a new layer to do exactly the same thing. The same for reading files, if it can’t gracefully spit out 10k lines in a second you couldn’t handle output

And if you can do all that, why not allow VIM over the same connection? You’re already going to have to manage the terminal session, why not fully reflect a terminal?

FTP is absolutely not the answer, but a server that will conditionally serve files as well as conditionally accept uploads is far more secure. The same for everything… If you want to manage users, instead of allowing remote code execution you should use an API to perform predefined tasks

SSH isn’t meant for security or production use, it’s meant for power and flexibility. It’s generally deactivated by default for a reason, but it’s included for a reason too. It’s just really damn useful

Because all those extra features are really useful. You can run all sorts of things over ssh, from sophisticated file transfer to remote development and tunneling

Ssh is remote code execution. Under any implementation, any authentication methods should be the absolute last line of defense after you’ve properly locked down access

How much taxes should increase?

Wait, is this just printing money with extra steps? Cause it sounds a lot like printing money with extra steps

Again, how? No one is buying American bonds right now. You can’t raise the debt if no one will loan you money

The only things worth ordering at Starbucks are the coffee and the iced coffee. Maybe with some expresso shots. And even then, it’s worth it to look for a local coffee shop

Once you’ve had your caffeine as God intended, you have the energy to go somewhere that actually makes food and decent milkshakes

I would love to, but I can’t find a damn thing with search these days. Apparently a robot named t-rex that is way more important to know about

I did watch this recently though, it seems well researched and paints a picture with what we know

The mobility issues seem to be greatly overstated

It might not be able to run, but it’s still fast, and seemingly built like a handcart. Newer research suggests it could turn and lunge very quickly

With what money? No one is buying bonds. The US would have to print so hard it’d cause hyperinflation, which still means the bubble pops

But you can quit whenever you want to! Totally balanced and equal, no power dynamics to think about

What, you want people to be forced to serve out their contract against their will? That’s slavery. I’m docking your pay for being pro slavery.

You got it, that’s exactly right

They are making less off of AI overviews than traditional ads, but their AI buildout costs are increasing

Not but, it’s and

Their ad revenue plummeted, because the AI summary costs money each search and also leads to fewer clicks (because people often take the AI answer), meaning Google ads, the core of their business, are not being seen on web sites

Also, they continue to invest crazy amounts in AI data centers (despite being significantly behind in LLM quality)

But that’s really just a piece of the puzzle, the simple answer is they are not only going all in on AI, they’re also destroying the one massive profit center that keeps all their other projects afloat

You love to see it

As much as I would normally hate something like this, the way so many projects are based on discord (and how unsearchable discord messages are) make this really convenient

Probably the worst solution, but maybe it’ll also get people off discord?

Yeah, because rich people didn’t lose money. I was there, I distinctly remember how they actually made massive profits while the rest of us suffered

There’s not enough money to bail out this bubble, it’s exponentially bigger. No one is going to buy $40 trillion of US bonds anytime soon, either we print money, and the rich lose through massive inflation, or we let nature take it’s course and the rich end up holding part of the bag

They do when it includes the portion of the public with money.

And a lot of money is going to be lost, including rich people’s money. And that’s something that leads to consequences

The one where AI has no liability framework, which means no organization can be blamed for anything?

It’s an unstable state. Meta can survive the AI bubble collapsing, they’ll even be in a good position afterwards since most of their rivals have put their necks out for AI

And when the bubble collapses, there’s going to be a bunch of regulation pushed to soothe the public anger and no more mountains of money to block it

Because eventually there’s going to be a reckoning, and they want to cover their ass

It does for now, but the methods for modifying an LLM are getting increasingly sophisticated. From blending models to doing brain surgery on them to fine tune the weights, there’s a lot of new techniques being developed all the time

There’s also recently been a breakthrough that cut the ram requirement to 1/6, eventually someone is going to figure out how to train models orderes of magnitude more efficiently

Especially once the AI bubble pops and no one is willing to dump billions into constant iterations

I mean, I would love an anklet that tracks my biometrics for a week at a time

I’m not putting on one designed by a tech giant, but if I didn’t understand the need for privacy I can see the appeal

This is true.

Instead of fighting against AI nudes, I think we should just culturally decide all nudes are AI. Women shouldn’t be publicly embarrassed or blackmailed by nude pictures, instead the reaction should be directed at the person sharing them. They’re the ones doing something wrong, regardless of if the pictures are real or not
