I am waiting for the cure to cancer. Multiple AI CEOs have already said it is just the first step for AI anyway. Should be pretty easy.

I don't know how the general public can't see that AI companies are fueling this moral panic to attract more and more VC money to make their companies even more ridiculously valued. Every one of their public announcement is design

It is actually more difficult because superpowers are not willing to spend unlimited money just to get ahead (like during Cold War). You can brute force a lot of technical problems by just using money (for example just one big expensive eng

Both lead and lead free solder use the same chemical flux in their core. So you have the same problem with leaded flux cored solder. With the additional problem of lead.

Of course syntax matters in any programming language. That is like saying the alphabet and grammar does not really matter in English.

Because all these things require a grid, unlike on-site generators. Most grid equipment (specially high voltage transformers) are backordered and all companies have empty inventories. Unlike traditional companies these AI companies are deat

But AAPL has a big weight on the market/indices.

Apple stock is down more than 4% right now. That is a big dump for such a blue chip stock. IDK if it is due to this EU ban or Apple choice of going with Gemini (instead of making their own models).

Is there any proposed timeline for a stable release? Big features like the recent async IO shows the language is very unstable right now.

It is an inherent limitation. Multithreading is not free after all. One of the big pros of async programming is the concurrency you get within a single thread. When you make the async runtime multithreaded by default (like Tokio) you don&#x

by nromiun 4mo ago
Async in Rust and C++ is nothing like it is in Python or NodeJS. Choose your own runtime is a very different model than having a default one. Not to mention Tokio (most popular runtime for Rust) is multi-threaded by default. So you have to

Python 3.10 is only used for the exploit. You can easily rewrite it for 3.8 as well. The vulnerability itself does not require Python at all.

Of course, but it does not matter as the entire AF_ALG module is forbidden by SELinux anyway (on Android).
18.
by nromiun 5mo ago
I tried this exploit on Android and it looks like you need root in the first place to create an AF_ALG socket. I guess it is an SELinux policy to disable AF_ALG entirely.
19.
by nromiun 5mo ago
To even get the su binary on Android you have to patch the OS. So this exploit can't work on Android. Because there is no su binary to target. Update: Just tried it on Termux and as expected even creating an AF_ALG socket requires root

If you present ELIZA to people some will think it is AGI today. There is a reason so many scams happen with technology. It is too easy to fool people.

That test does not mean anything. I can also spin up a large LLM on my 5090 and say these models are ready for on device deployment now. However that would not be true for most people. You should test a Golang hello world binary as well. I

AI hysteria has gone too far. People are literally telling stories of what AI may be capable of in the future and whipping themselves into a frenzy.

Getting early into any technology only makes sense if you are building your business on top of it. Or you are making money from it in some way. Other than that it makes sense for the rest of us to wait. Of course those that believe that AI

Apple's ecosystem is the 8th wonder of this world. Nowhere else you can put a logo on a piece of cloth or aluminum wheel and sell them for hundreds of dollars. Greatest capitalist company of all time.
