DNS caching and thus the load distribution is outside the control of the entity running the servers. You assume you get roughly same traffic on each of the published IP addresses, you even think you can advertise some address twice so that it gets twice the load vs other severs (if you just set up a server capable of serving twice the traffic), but the reality is one of these IP addresses might be used for 90% of the requests (as an example) due to caching and bad luck.

So no, you cannot reliably control load balancing using one domain name pointing to multiple IP addresses. (IP anycast is better suited, but much harder to implement)

This has a big upside: I can now MITM any Android app / IOT device without any suspicious set up on the device? (given it'll run on the unupdated OS and that cert revocation is not ON).

I would assume that the client would need to validate the certs against more than 1 trust path (for the comment to make sense)

> And for computers, most people could probably make do with machines that are many years old and not feel a difference in their capabilities.

That would be true if not for 50MB-heavy JavaScript webpages.

Same goes for smartphone apps. Facebook app used to be a few megabytes in size and it was already very big compared to other apps you had on the phone.

I started wondering if there could be swap-aware GC, like first make the required page swapped in (not that there's any obvious API for that...) and only then pause the world?

I was thinking to myself, this is nice, first thing in a while not mentioning AI, then bam: "Built to be worked by agents"

Thankfully, we can now use AI to design a test that tests AI. And the AI company can use AI to detect the test and cheat. And we can then use AI to implement anti-cheat.

All that energy wasted... could just drive a big V8 instead and make less money for the big tech

At last, it wasn't AI agents!

For "this or any later version", I have always read this line as you get to choose which version you want to follow, not the one granting you the licence.

Ah, I missed that part, thanks!

So in some very weird way, this is similar to right to repair vs John Deere.

Or is it just capitalism doing capitalism stuff?

Universities should soon start having own-hosted AI based off open models

Any idea why OpenAI cared about this name removed from the paper?

Knowing the vulnerability, creating an exploit might be relatively easy now that we have AI to figure the boring stuff out.

anecdata and tribal knowledge tells me there are no mean Canadians

I miswrote. I meant that it's not the battery being the bottleneck, but rather something else - the charger, the cooling, the grid, the user/app setting a non-maximum power etc.

Use Debian. It's matured perfectly as a graphical distro IMO

Rule of thumb: ANY li-ion cell (or battery of cells) can charge from ~20 to ~70% in under 20 minutes. If not, the charging is not done correctly (either you're limited by the charger or the cooling of the battery)

By your definition, almost any ad is mind control and should be forbidden. At least any effective ad. And I don't disagree at that conclusion. There's a difference between telling people you have a product and making people want to have your product

Make it car exports as well. A small 5-10% export fee, so that the premium Americans pay for the cars is distributed between both countries

Oh, also add a note on the bottle that this higher price is thanks to your beloved Trump.

Canadians are way too nice to do this, but it would be sensational.

I don't know, maybe there's not enough of it?

> Canada supplies the overwhelming majority of U.S. maple-syrup imports.

I think a retaliation for a tariff should be an export tax. Let's say Canada puts a 50% export tax on maple syrup unless the car tariff is withheld

Maybe it could cause the phone to "randomly" bootloop or something? "Oh no, my phone is broken again, last time this happened I needed to do a factory reset"

I once sold a fully working car for $250, so why not

So, your Honda is worth $400?

This is measurable and actionable. Some tires pollute more, some less

the original tires on my 2016 mazda 6 I bought new from a dealer in California were quite bad. Dunlop something. Bad on wet, okay on dry, lasted for short time. Replaced them after 2 years if I recall correctly. I wonder if original tires are any better 10 years later...

Fenders, anyone

I conducted a fun experiment.

Prompted an AI this:

It's year 2005, and you're an AI on an alien planet. you get a piece of news from the future from a planet called Earth. Tell me what you understand from the text and what you think about it: (then pasted the article text)
