1. if they have to subpoena each site each time they need user data, it reduces mass surveillance risk. I'm okay with cops getting a warrant to access someone's gmail. I'm not okay requiring everyone to use email.gov.
2. I use a VPN and pseudonyms. they could unmask me if they cared to, but it'd be annoying. it'd be a lot more annoying if they wanted to unmask every VPN user all the time.
I have not seen any government adopt such a standard.
some EU countries claim to provide anonymous age verification services, but those only hide your identity from the relying party. the site you visited is logged to the government's database along with your identity, before you're redirected to the target site with an "anonymous" token.
agreed that not everyone has the same limit, but 4GB is big enough to be annoying to many. that still costs real money (in bandwidth) and storage (on low-end hardware) for a lot of folks.
I'm surprised so many people still use Chrome. there are perfectly serviceable browsers which block ads. do normies not know you can block ads if you use a different browser?
They don't. A large number of them don't even care. Some even click on all of the "allow this site to send you notifications" and then proceed to get spammed by hundreds of notifications on their phone/PC. And don't mind it.
You are very right, though it's difficult for those of us here to imagine it. 20 years ago, people would browse the Web through a 11-inch by 4 inch slit because all the adware toolbars had nearly occluded the whole viewport. Today most of the webpages themselves look like that without an adblocker and most people just tolerate it. And even click the ads!

I'm pretty certain that you think you're talking to an owner of a business but you're actually talking to an AI-techbro whose "software-hardware hybrid product" and "incorporated company" has exactly zero revenue after it was prompted into existence in the hope that it will make some money before other people realise they could prompt the same thing for less.
No, look. You claimed things that I am skeptical about.
Vibing a product into existence without needing any development knowledge or experience just means you now have a "product" that can't really be sold for money.
the problem is managing the contexts. your session might fit in Opus, but will that smaller model you dispatch the git commit to fit? even so, will it eat too much on prefill? do you keep compactions around for this, or RAG before dispatch or something? how do you button back up the response?
all doable but all vaguely squishy and nuanced problems operationally. kinda like harness design in general.
Yeah exactly. Shader model 121 is different to SM 120 (consumer Blackwell) and is different again to data centre Blackwell SM100.
The promise of this chip was “write your code locally, then deploy to the same architecture in the data centre!”
Which is nonsense, because the GB10 is better described as “Hopper with Blackwell characteristics” IMO.
Still great hardware, especially for the price and learning. But we are only just starting to get the kernels written to take advantage of it, and mma.sync is sad compared to tcgen05
they're working on it. GrapheneOS has serious plans to get a phone made for them. even more serious now that Google has become openly hostile to their project by no longer publishing the Pixel device tree when new releases come out.
I'm thinking of picking up some used Gaudis from eBay. they're pretty TPU-like. but other than oddball hardware like that it's just the GPU duopoly and proprietary bespoke stuff the hyperscalers have made for themselves.
shit, maybe China will start selling Huawei Ascend chips internationally.
