LPT, keep a stopwatch going for psychedelics. I’ll start a timer on my phone when I drop and it helps snap me out of any kind of time related disorientation as I peak. For your average time dilation stuff, it’s awesome. If I can’t see my phone, then time probably is the last thing on my mind.
Most of this is just marketing crap from Anthropic.
Finding vulnerabilities in code and generating complex, multistep exploits with publicly available models is possible now. This biggest hurdles now is setting correct context and actually knowing what to look for. Any “guardrails” for this behavior are easily bypassed by framing the detection and exploit generation as a valid dev style question in the most difficult of situations.
They likely just trained a model without guardrails in this case.
What they are doing here is over-hyping a problem and framing it like they are the only ones with a solution. LLM security issues are more in-focus now that companies have dumped a ton of resources into building AI systems they don’t really understand.
I want it to be a Lower Decks reference.
You should probably have your bot stop at a word count, not a letter count as to avoid unfortunate racial slang.
Confirmed or not, get better sources. Equipment damaged in a war is completely plausible and even inevitable. Propaganda is also inevitable, from either side of a conflict. In this case, an Indian source has proxied state news meant for Iranians.
Trying to sort out their mix of AI slop posts from legit unbiased news isn’t worth my time, even if the news is proxied by another source. (Indian news is generally shit as well, I just ignore that by default. If you actually want extreme sensationalized trash, then good on you.)
Tehran Times would probably also claim that they lead the world in women’s rights and free speech.
It’s probably just a rogue hemorrhoid that will just add more stress. Sorry.
Nobody said anything about taking a shower.
Companies these days do what is right for their shareholders and if Claude makes money, or appears to make money, then the shareholders are happy.
Japan seems to be having more success: https://www.futura-sciences.com/en/this-new-japanese-weapon-can-neutralize-the-fastest-machine-ever-created_17488/
Still, the technical challenges are exactly the same. While I can’t find many more details, it being ship mounted is a significant step forward and it seems to imply that some of the more serious issues have been solved. (A demonstration is just a demonstration and anything other than it being able to hit a target ship is just speculation.)
A response that is actually in context: Considering how expensive it is to build a fab for a component as critical and delicate as RAM, there is incentive to perform proper QA for products released under the original brand. Having a fab fail because of reputation is not likely an option. Rebranding wouldn’t help as modules can be de-capped and the source vendor could still be identified.
The success or failure of this vendor is going to be how well they physically control their bottom tier bins and ensure that any waste product doesn’t get funneled back into the supply chain. With China specifically, it seems the incentives are much higher for that behavior. Again, if you doubt that, I can point you in the direction of thousands of bunk components.
As with any company that is state owned or state backed, the potential security risk is much higher. I am not just pointing directly at one country in this case. Some governments may pose higher risks than others though. (From a security perspective, you would want trojaned components to be as reliable as possible, TBH.)
Unless there is strict 3rd party (out of country) quality control or there is financial motivation for proper QA, Chinese electronics are usually trash. The market is flooded with cheap Chinese silicon fakes, which has caused significant price increases to verify legitimate parts. If its not “original” pirated silicon that is the issue, it’s filed off package marking with a shitty re-badge.
You can keep barking that nationalist bullshit, but it doesn’t change the fact that I have to rebuild any equipment that I need at a slight discount and don’t want it to kill me because of a 2 cent savings on a missing ground.
Unlike you, I don’t give a flying fuck about talking shit about another country. It’s the electronics that matter to me, and if you haven’t seen the absolute shit show that is Alibaba, you have your head so deep in the sand you are never going to experience that sweet smell of burning, pirated XT-60 connectors.
I have delt with so many fake parts smuggled into legit supply chains it would make your head spin. This isn’t a “buyer beware” issue: it’s complete lack of respect for anyone else further down the supply chain.
At least stay on-point if you are trying to defend something, FFS.
The art of war is extremely complex and there is no way to cover everything in one Lemmy comment.
However, I can summarize: An attacker or defender simply needs to prevent the opposing side from being able to support a war.
While there are thousands of different things that can support war, it usually boils down to raw manpower, food/supplies, weapons, energy, logistics and communications. Failing to defend, or not having the capability to replenish/repair those things is usually a quick game-over as those items are highly dependent on the other. Anything that supports those key items is a target of the enemy, so those are the things that are stockpiled, fortified or should be rebuilt quickly.
There are some fairly beast defense lines just past Pokrovsk the Ukraine has had plenty of time to build. Hopefully it works as advertised.
000, 666 and 900-999 are invalid area numbers and any digit group of all zeros is also invalid. Thanks for playing!
From the research papers I have read, psychedelics introduce a degree of neuroplasticity that allows psychotherapy to more effective. (I cannot speak to what types of psychotherapy would be more effective than another as I do not know or understand the differences.)
I attribute my use of psychedelics to helping me through my alcohol addiction. While it wasn’t guided therapy, it was still very controlled and allowed me to “rewrite” how I interpreted feelings and how I handled a variety of different situations. My hallucinations allowed my feelings to become more tangible and physical. I felt I had the opportunity to think differently about difficult parts of my life.
I suspect proper guidance is similar to what I did to myself: Have a person describe situations and the therapist proposes different ways to interpret those situations. The brain is able to physically form new pathways and sidestep old behaviors.
I am making a slightly different point and have a bias to this perspective: https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/publications/SD/19230.pdf
I am saying that an SSN can be part of a larger validation scheme, not the only key to the castle. Specifically for government sites, SSNs can be linked to IRS data to verify places of last residence. A person generally needs to verify multiple items that are referenced by the SSN before basic authentication can be established and set by the user. (This is part of the full Authentication, Authorization and Access Control triad.)
An SSN is just a broad level identifier. If you look at many laws around the release of SSNs, the redaction is usually in place to prevent the linking of different documents and other data points.
If I released my SSN in this chat, I could be fully doxxed in a matter of seconds. It’s mainly because there are many legal systems in place that use an SSN as a primary key, of sorts. (It’s a bit more than that, as SSNs can be duplicated in some circumstances.)
So to say, at a high level, an SSN is considered private is absolutely correct. However, it’s so easily referenced and obtainable it really isn’t fully private either.
If I was to generate a full list of every possible SSN in the US (which I have done, multiple times), that list is effectively useless to anyone who obtains a copy of it. So, by itself, an SSN is effectively public.
SSNs are generally considered public information but how the SSN is linked to other information is usually the more difficult bit to find and it’s generally pay-walled. (Any jackass with a business license and a credit card can usually buy background check information for ‘hiring’.)
But no, it shouldn’t be solely used for authentication. That is just dumb. However, it can be used as part of a larger verification and validation scheme while building authentication/authorization profiles. In most systems that I have seen that use full or partial SSNs, it is always linked to several other identifiers that need to match.
You could probably look at RAM and GPU prices and come to the same conclusion much faster.
I attribute mushrooms to finally breaking my years long journey as a fairly committed alcoholic.
The decisions or realizations people can have during an intense trip tend to be really sticky for a very long time regardless if it’s a good trip or a bad one. It’s the nature of the beast.
But mushrooms be like you described sometimes. I won’t go near the dosages I was taking when I was kicking booze. 1-2 grams every once in a while is just fine for me.
After my last power trip (+5 grams) I saw what I needed to see and probably will never go in that range again. It was a life changing trip and thankfully not a bad one. However, when the mushrooms speak to you like that, you listen. They told me I was done and I was ready to heal on my own.
