What happens when a user without the cookie GETs a slow page? Does he get redirected to fast one to and back?
3.
by sgsjchs 16d ago
Maybe I misunderstand what you mean by "load the cookie". What is it if not Set-Cookie header with redirect status? That doesn't seem particularly special to me.

It's not reusable from a different IP.

by sgsjchs 17d ago
How so?

It discards the cookie after one request and appears as a new user.

The people "consented" to this when they clicked OK on the user agreement.

Ironically, defense by obscurity may be the way to go here. Fork Anubis. Slightly modify the hash function it computes. Deploy. Do not try to make your fork widely adopted. Do not even publish it. You've just defeated ASICs and any cr

The first LZ-step pretty much directly maps to BPE tokenization in LLMs.

You have it backwards. This formal game-theoretic notion of fairness acknowledges that power disparity exists and that having less power than your counterparty allows them to inflict greater disutility on you without you being able to infli

Does it really matter that English is not as precise if the agent can make a consistent and plausible guess what my intention is? And when it occasionally guesses incorrectly, I can always clarify.

by sgsjchs 8mo ago
It's the other way around.

by sgsjchs 10mo ago
The trick is to provide dense rewards, i.e. not only once full goal is reached, but a little bit for every random flailing of the agent in the approximately correct direction.

I, too, enjoy the craftsmanship, but at the end of the day what matters is that the software works as required, how you arrive at that point doesn't matter.

But in C that's just syntax sugar for pointer math.

You very rarely would actually want scalar types which don't map directly to hardware supported ones anyway.

Why would you want to store arbitrary individual passwords instead of deriving them with on demand from the service name/domain and a common secret?

Indeed, the "valid but unspecified state" refers only to some types defined in the he standard library. It essentially means that you can only call methods which have no preconditions and don't depend on what that state is, e

You don't need optional in this case, the assignment would just destroy the old socket and immediately move the new one in its place.

Reopen by constructing and assigning a new socket.

In this case, I would want the address family and protocol to be statically known, so it would have default constructor. But for example, a file might not have one, sure. As for closing before lifetime ends, why? I can just end lifetime. Wr

by sgsjchs 1y ago
If the moves were destructive, I'd design it to have the default constructor call `::socket` and destructor call `::close`. And there wouldn't be any kind of "closed" state. Why would I want it?
