The colors may also fade/drift upon exposure to air and humidity, not just light.

That lander had all sorts of fiddly protrusions on it, so the multiple charts could have been to avoid self-shadowing all of them. Or they were worried about chart stability after shipping it across interplanetary space. Or the test targets

These are great, even for manually-adjusted color workflows. Fun fact, though: You have to replace them every couple of years (or sooner) because no pigment/dye is stable, especially if exposed to bright light. Having a test shot with

We're still doing it! You've just described the AI labs: They'll trade safety / alignment for +1~2% of any positive metric, any day of the week. The "ethical" employees will think they'll solve the problem

I've heard this referred to as a "dark sector", or "hidden sector": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden_sector The scary thought is that, were it true that there is voluminous richly-interacti

Sigh. I want my damn em dash back. I had the Mac key combo memorized back when the phrase "AI winter" was coined . Now everyone thinks it's AI slop.

No agentic harness; I just prompted literally "svg owl" into LM Studio 0.4.21+2. macOS Tahoe 26.6.1, Mac mini M4 Pro (14 core, 20 graphics cores) 64GB RAM. (I put the machine config so the 17m12s of thinking has some context.) It

"inclined to overthinking," holy cats you're not kidding! On a Mac mini M4 Pro 64GB I prompted it with "svg owl" and it thought for 17m12s, outputting 36.3KiB of thinking chatter. It did end up producing a 20.2KiB H

Agreed. Here's a start for posterity. Using their prompt, "Write a 300-word explanation of how attention works in transformer models, aimed at a junior developer. Use one concrete analogy.": Note that my mini is the bigger Pr

Floridian here. WWVB has never worked for me indoors (never tried outdoors). I've tried multiple vendors' clocks in multiple houses (wood frame and concrete). I assume the coverage is fine outdoors or with a sufficiently large ant

This looks like the Prism folks, who are making binary/ternary versions of popular edge models, so that those models will fit on constrained devices like phones. E.g., their Bonsai model derived from Qwen: https://news.ycomb

Thank you, I was unaware of that. It looks like it's already support in the acme.sh client, but there is a Let's Encrypt discussion saying it's still pending at LE: https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/dns

I do this exactly, using ACME DNS: https://github.com/acme-dns/acme-dns CAUTION, though, the last time I downloaded a binary release, ClamAV triggered on it, so I kept my old version which worked. I was using the 1.0 s

The heavily ironic implication is that they're under NDA, so they can't attest to it, while more or less attesting it. Senator, I cannot confirm or deny that we definitely do this. This could also be an unofficial-official way f

This is just Terminator with extra steps. They cannot envision the scenario where their AI-powered robots turn on them, or at the very least are used against them (and then inevitably turn on everyone).

My interpretation: First, they can't attack a WiFi access point for which they do not know any password(s). Thus your multi-SSID access point with multiple passwords is "safe" from this particular attack. However, second, the

The "We" is short for Westinghouse, or at least it was: Westinghouse Steered Stabilized Camera Mount, thus WESSCAM. Then they dropped an "S". Granted pronouncing the name is ambiguous, Wes-cam or We-scam. But they'r

Right. Define "safe." Personally I consider Chrome to be one of the least- safe browsers available, because it sends my data to Google. Also it perpetuates a monoculture. However, others may define "safe" differently, e
