Quality content.
562·5 months agoDeepSeek shook the AI world because it’s cheaper, not because it’s open source.
And it’s not really open source either. Sure, the weights are open, but the training materials aren’t. Good luck looking at the weights and figuring things out.
22·5 months agoThat’s just how modems are designed. DOCSIS consumer cable modems allocate about 10× download bandwidth vs upload. A 10:1 download-to-upload ratio is pretty standard. I have a 400 Mbps upload on a 1.2 Gbps download, which is pretty good.
Enshittifying the US government.
This is it. “We spent so damn much money on this, we gotta see some NUMBERS on the dashboard!”
I wonder if Texas has better bankruptcy laws.
I am that old, but I am not this old:

I thought this was a new Chuck Tingle novel.
Here in the SF Bay Area, it’s Tesla drivers. All those BMW drivers have traded in their cars for Teslas.
Apps can get woken up when a remote notification arrives that has the
content-availablekey. Apps are woken up in background mode, at which point they have a few seconds to do whatever they need to do to refresh their content cache. This, of course, often leads to the app making a connection to the server, which exposes the user’s IP address.I think the sin here is that some apps always set the
content-availablekey regardless of whether there is content to be retrieved or not. That turns the notification into a surveillance tool, allowing the app to check in periodically.

The open secret of Open Source is that successful projects are largely the playground of capitalists. Who has the time to develop and maintain a whole mobile OS with all of the services people have come to expect, for no compensation? Surely the money flows in from interested parties who can then use the software to their advantage.
Much of the fundamental pieces of iOS and macOS is open source too. Darwin/XNU are open-source, but no one is under the impression that any of this effort is to benefit anyone other than Apple. Sure, Darwin-based alternative OSes exist, but let’s not kid ourselves that they are anything but curiosities, waiting to be derailed by Apple when they get too large.
I don’t think Ridley Scott knows how AI works.
Yeah, it’s all about incentives. Google’s behavior is what the law incentivizes.
