Neat article. “Chad” initially looked interesting but the minute I saw the ai-written markdown and giant commit I just left. I just can’t bring myself to read someone elses’ slop, regardless of performance. If all a…
I appreciate all the hard work the Graphene team has done all these years with advancing alternative mobile OS and have been following them for years so I hope they don’t take this the wrong way - The project would…
Based on current events in the US 10y and 30y bonds, the end is coming quicker than people think or are prepared for. I really don’t see a way out of this that isn’t high inflation (about 15%), lower dollar valuation,…
> instead of selecting the next token randomly, the idea will be to select it pseudorandomly, using a cryptographic pseudorandom function, whose key is known only to OpenAI. Seems like - given enough text to encode…
> Suddenly we were spending 90% of our time assembling circuit boards instead of growing the business > When you look at the full process, you realize that assembly is not the bottleneck. I’m confused, which one is it?…
Northeastern graduates assemble!
Refilling the SPR would’ve required finding money to actually buy some oil. Put simply the SPR is broke/in debt. Over the last few years congress passed pieces of legislation (infrastructure bills, healthcare changes,…
Tesla drivers generally use the phone key, which generally comes with its own set of privacy concerns. I’d also be surprised if the car didn’t use the phone key connection to trickle some metrics when cellular is…
As a tech literate customer, my willingness to entertain AI chatbot decision trees is rock bottom. I have no patience to try to find the correct incantation to actually fix something (or the, “before I transfer you to a…
I spent an entire month trying to build something with Reticulum, but there just isn’t great tooling for dealing with the protocol. Makes for a pretty infuriating devex if you’re just trying to build your app. Neat…
I would absolutely love to read something about that - thanks for putting in the work and sharing it. I have a buddy working on restoring a set of binoculars that were attached to the Target Bearing Transmitter system…
I’ve heard rumors that DNS records are also sometimes used in some steganography-type communications. Great way of passing small messages in a ubiquitous and innocuous system, unlikely to be blocked or raise eyebrows by…
Cloudflare has excellent (human) technical writers. I don’t see any indication this is “slop”, it’s the standard in-the-weeds but understandable blog post they’ve been doing for years. AI text is everywhere, but this…
I was using this as a demo project for playing around with code generation tools, so it’s really not in a great state and entirely AI written, but I can share a link here when I get a chance. My initial stab was a rust…
Reticulum is a full replacement networking stack for several layers of the OSI stack, so not directly comparable. The LXMF messaging protocol (built on top of reticulum) is nice as it’s encrypted-by-requirement, but…
Appreciate you sticking in here and answering the hard questions. How does the company handle the split between your defense and consumer products? Do you see there being conflicting interests here?
> We add noise to their data It’s interesting that Apple is going down a similar path with hardware filtering location retrieval commands and neighborhood-level blurring on their C1 modems. Really awesome work from that…
The ATProto underlying BlueSky social network is similar. It uses a content-addressed DAG. Each “post” has a CID, which is a cryptographic hash of the data. To “prove” ownership of the post, there’s a witness hash that…
Commonwealth fusion is theoretically pretty close with their high temp superconductors. Far from a slam dunk, but I don’t think we’re as far from net gain as we were 10 years ago.
The replies also make it clear the sycophancy of LLM chatbots is still alive and well. All of the replies I saw were falling over themselves to praise OP. Not a single one gave an at all human chronically-online comment…
The plaintext TSS/ECID and the plaintext OCSP issues have been fixed, which IMO were the only meaningful security gripes of the article. The iMessage/ADP/Metadata stuff I think is more of an implementation decision than…
Just curious - how much of this was AI generated? The readme has crazy emojis & the code was all checked in at once, which is usually my telltale for these kinds of things. Didn't see anything crazy in the source files.…
