Actually, for the purpose of providing the service its fine to look. They just aren't allowed to use what they see anywhere else. Just like your doctor hears about your health problems but can't sell your medical records. Whats with the nasty toxicity?

Re:Mathematicians want proof OpenAI didn't use their work on Thursday September 10, 2026 @07:56AM (#49642266)
OpenAI is the possessive actor here. They were supposed to develop the AI for the benefit of humanity. Now they do it closed and do it only for their private profit.

Somehow I'd imagine that you could have container size and shape batteries and maybe even stop more often in ports to swap them out using existing crain mechanisms
We've been developing a new method of developing software using a cloud IDE (slightly modified vs code server), https://github.com/bitswan-space which breaks down the development process into independent "Automations" which each run in a separate container. Automatons are also developed within containers. This allows you to break down the development into parts and safely experiment with AI. This feels like the "Android moment" where the old non-isolated way of developing software (on desktops) becomes unsafe. And we need to move to a new system with actual security and isolation between processes.

In our system, you can launch a Jupyter server in a container and iterate on software in complete isolation. Or launch a live preview react application and iterate in complete isolation. Securely isolated from the world. Then you deploy directly to another container, which only has access to what you give it access to.

It's still in the early stages. But it's interesting to sit at this tipping point for software development.

Since europe uses almost exclusively underground power lines there are rarely outages due to weather.

Karpathy writes that there is no cheeply computed objective check for "Or re-writing some Java code to Python? " Among other things. But it seems to me that Reinforced Learning should be possible for code translation using automated integration testing. Run it, see if it does,the same thing!

Re:Why One Man Spent 12 Years Fighting Robocalls on Thursday April 25, 2024 @11:00AM (#40158395)
In Czechia I get about 10 a year. Hardly what I'd call a big problem... My grandparents in canada get about 10 a day. My grandpa in the us got like 10 an hour before he died, many time live humans who knew his name and that he was an old man in a nursing home....

This is %100 a North American problem.

I'm surprised and impressed at how much energy you have to deal with this and write about it. I'm a month out from having a squamous cell tumor removed from my tongue and a kneck disection and most of the time I just lie around in bed feeling sorry for myself and even that is pretty exhausting. I hope the trial drug works, both for you, and selfishly, for me in case I'll need it!
Now I'm not sure if its an underbite or an overbite that causes the issue, but I do know it's something that can be objectively measured and fixed. You're right though that I went to a specialist in apnoe to have my teeth/jaw measured.
There are many causes of sleep apnoe, the most common one being obesity. Some people, however have an underbite which causes sleep apnoe, this can be measured and corrected by an orthodontist. I didn't have either, but I did suffer mild sleep apnoe for years. What solved it for me was rinsing my nose with salt water every evening and using Nasonex spray.

Also, locking wouldn't help with this as even that wouldn't fix the fundamental design issue.
