the funny thing is that nobody will ever do that. The moment someone uses quantum computing or any other technology to crack bitcoin in a visible way, the coins they just gave to themselves become worthless because…
In the 60's we actually had extremely capable, fully-developed computers. Advanced systems like the IBM System360 and CDC 6600. Quantum computing is currently stuck somewhere in the 1800's, when a lot of the theory was…
tbh they could just be pushing for people to adopt newer, less-tested, weaker algorithms. switch from something battle-hardened to the QuantResist2000 algorithm which they've figured out how to break with lattice…
It turns out they're not so useful for chemistry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDj1QhPOVBo
I will never get used to ECC meaning "Error Correcting Code" or "Elliptic Curve Cryptography." That said, this isn't unique to quantum expectations. Faster classical computers or better classical techniques could make…
More recently it's turned out that quantum computers are less useful for molecular simulation than previously thought. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDj1QhPOVBo The video is essentially an argument from the…
It's also possible that any such enunciation is being hallucinated from the text by the speech model. AI models exist to make up bullshit that fills a gap. When you have a conversation with any LLM it's merely…

You'd have no idea that it isn't Linux. You don't run code on this OS, you run code on VMs that it provides.
This isn't NetBSD. NetBSD broke off loooooooong after the release of BSD that Sun used to build this OS.
The reasoning of this case rests on the intentions of the FSF when they wrote the licence. If the person who wrote the licence didn't intend you to be able to get benefits, you can't.
afaik there has always been the option to install alongside during the installer. It might not even be possible to do otherwise if you're installing from macOS itself.
The page has per-machine lists of available and unsupported features. The only mac that doesn't have audio right now are the M1 imacs, due to their speakers working differently than the laptops. They're not that…
It wasn't the technical side that caused the schedule slips. It was constant competition with other aspects of the business, especially the VAX lineup. The VAX 9000 in particular was a $3 billion money pit that didn't…
It wasn't the cost of alpha. It was the bleeding all through the rest of the company. DEC's terminals? killed by PCs. The VAX lineup? killed by RISC chips, and the VAX 9000 consumed a huge chunk of their cash reserves…
Sun was one of the few processor makers who were sceptical and decided to wait and see before cancelling plans for their architecture, and it's nice to hear that worked out for them for a bit before 64-bit x86 ate their…
It's kind of funny. There are lots of architectures it killed (Alpha, PA-RISC, basically everything except SPARC because Sun was sceptical) but basically all of them have outlived it in the linux kernel. It killed their…
openAI self-selects only people who drink the AGI koolaide. Its the only way to get a job/keep a job there.
There's fuck all that ZFS can do if hardware lies about what has or hasn't been written to disk yet. There have to be points where ZFS blocks until something critical has been absolutely, totally, 100% written to disk…
There's fuck all that ZFS can do if the drive lies about what has or hasn't been written yet, journal or no journal. USB devices are known to do this all the time. If the drive lies and says that part of the journal has…
It would go against a fundamental principle of ZFS' design for changing a setting like that mid-flight to not be safe.
This is a bad idea. If you want repair, you need to either set more than one copy in ZFS (still pretty dumb) or use multiple drives in a raidz (or mirror, though raidz is more efficient). When you try to partition a…
Use raidz.
A scrub can both detect and repair damage. You don't need to set additional copies. If you don't want to buy 4TB of drives to store 2TB of data in a mirror, use a raidz instead. In a raidz with at least one parity disk…
Decoupling. The raspi pin header is a defacto standard. The raspi foundation have to maintain a very high degree of compatibility with it. Have a look: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pinout-xyz/Pinout.xyz/mast... See…
