I’m not sure that it’s addiction, it’s just not feasible for most large organizations to pivot from a core solution like VMware without years involved. Every company I know of is formulating an exit plan away from VMware. They just have to

I wonder how openAI would feel if I spun up some agents to DDOS or attack their sites and did some damage. We need to stop empowering the idea that these incidents are unavoidable. This was a choice to not airgap them safely. Putting open e

At this point it's very obvious that OpenAI is not interested in properly sandboxing their research agents. These things should be pretty damn close to airgapped at this point with a static view into the web. We need to stop pretending

They already do this, at least for paid accounts. You can even decide what compression model you want them to serve on your behalf.

How about me? If you’d be so kind. Thanks!

Ideally you have levers further up from your local load balancers as well. Even at the edge. Granted you never want those to trigger but it’s better than fighting a storm while you fix things.

I completely agree, I currently manage a fleet of microservices that handles a few trillion requests a month. It’s about defense in layers to these sorts of things. All the way through the stack if possible starting at the edge. At least it

I believe envoy has it built in and istio (uses envoy) has different levers for circuit breaking and retries. I’m sure lots of them have it as an option though outside of these.

by llama052 27d ago
This is why you have circuit breakers upstream. Not on every individual instance.

It also would be a huge win for the memory companies to agree to this, considering they will make more money with less supply. Seems interesting to me.

At least with OpenAI you can use a third party harness like Pi.

by llama052 2mo ago
“Research” generally doesn’t involve actively hacking third party systems though.

It’s a little concerning to me that it appears that openAIs sandbox consists of a web proxy and not stronger controls that would actually isolate traffic and report patterns to whoever is responsible for overseeing these research models. It

There's certainly something to be said for ease of use and not having to ensure you push trusted certs to every device that touches your internal network. Unless you enjoy that sort of thing.

DNS-01 validation is way less work than that in my experience.

100% this. I observe this all the time. LLMs can be a force multiplier but those who don’t ask the right questions or understand the nuance still produce bad code, it’s just amplified. I don’t think any of the current models can avoid that,

Because astroturfing and fake stars for projects are absolutely rampant right now. Hiding the stats makes it impossible to look at heuristics and essentially makes it even more useless as a metric of anything.

The big memory companies have been caught price fixing and been fined for it historically. So I’d wager that it’s bound to repeat itself. As far as Apple being to blame, that’s a weird conclusion.

by llama052 3mo ago
Did you use an LLM to write this for you? How odd. For all of you people who think these LLM models are “earth shattering” how the hell do you reconcile that it’s a net positive for anyone but those who want to consolidate knowledge and pow

“Beyond clear” I wouldn’t say that confidently. Even now I’m not sure I agree with that, especially looking at it long term.

by llama052 4mo ago
Yeah I'm there with you. I got lucky as a kid with delving into this as a hobby and it turned into a professional career. Thought we could change the world for the better, what we made instead was social media cancer and LLMs that can

It's interesting to me that this is lower on the HN page than the Cloudflare post talking about the CVE handling even though the scoring is higher. EDIT: Now it's off the main page, because of course it is.

That's 100% because Azure isn't honest about their uptime.

by llama052 6mo ago
Yeah it’s entirely business people and executives who make these decisions in most companies. Not the ones who use it or implement on it.

It's absolutely this. Our Azure outages correlate heavily with Github outages. It's almost a meme for us at this point.

by llama052 6mo ago
Nearly every time Github has an outage, Azure is having issues also. Actually the last 4-5 outages from Github, Our Azure environments have issues (that they rarely post on the status page) and lo and behold I'll notice that Github is

You can’t copy and paste markdown, nor can you use it in the native way in confluence. They have third party paid plugins that can do it.
29.
by llama052 6mo ago
I'd argue the opposite. The thing is so bloated and the simplest of things seem to be so hard. Import markdown in confluence? Nope not natively. Add an issue to the board? better go to the one workflow to do it and not in the actual ti

I’ll take clarity and actual RCAs than Microsoft’s approach of not notifying customers and keeping their status page green until enough people notice. One thing I do appreciate about cloudflare is their actual use of their status page. That
