   Maybe explainable via the fact that these tests are part of the LLM training set?

   hmm there are apps produced by your script that claim to be fixed according to https://avarayr.github.io/shamelectron/ (Signal, Discord, Notion, etc). And I checked that those apps are updated. Which one’s correct?

   Did switching your deliverer to SES have any effect on how clients like Gmail “tagged” your email? (Promotional category or something IIRC)

   If your pds refuses to serve you your CAR file I don’t think you can do anything about it, can you?

   That’s a cool result, thanks for the link!

   While I don’t know if the claim is true, you’ve linked a post from 2012…

   Yeah I was looking at that page. Found this btw: https://github.com/darkrain42/tailscale-initramfs

   This is not the same thing is it? Arch Wiki mentions something about having to install a separate ssh server into initramfs to support ssh’ing into fully encrypted systems.

   systemd-cryptenroll seems to be about storing encryption keys into the TPM so that they can be decrypted automatically at boot (?)

   Apologies if I misunderstood something.

    This is such a hilarious failure mode. I would never have imagined something like this to a problem.

    In the case of SSH though, I assume retrying after a second or so would be enough. You probably have some sort of retry mechanism to deal with network failures anyway.

    Yeah I’m not buying it. If the corporations wanted to, they would.

    you are aware that the app you just wrote with Claude pulls in dependencies, yes?

    Seems to be a separate incident?

    That is, undoubtedly, a problem created by Google itself. See for example: Kagi’s small web (https://blog.kagi.com/small-web)

    > I’m not saying that one should believe everything at face value
17. xrisk Aug 1, 2025 parent

    It’s for (often implicit) communities to decide; communities whose members share a certain set of norms.

    Further, legality does not imply correctness.

    For example, it’s probably legal to call somebody a transphobic slur in many parts of the world but to suggest that trans people shouldn’t attempt to avoid or “cancel” such people is ridiculous.

    And if you sincerely think that the only acceptable action to take is make a petition to change the law, I would suggest you go out and touch some grass. The law doesn’t work that way.

    1) This argument works only if the justice system is effective, which is not the case everywhere in the world

    2) A lot of sexual misconduct happens behind closed doors and is (I would imagine. IANAL) difficult to prosecute. I’m not saying that one should believe everything at face value but if multiple people make such allegations it’s more likely than not that such allegations have weight.

    3) Not all sexual misconduct is “illegal”. But it doesn’t mean that communities should not attempt to censor people who engage in problematic behavior.

    Was atom functionally ever any different from vscode today?

    Yeah I think this computation doesn’t work anymore once you factor in the tls handshake.

    cgroups is for controlling resource allocation (CPU, RAM, etc). What you mean is probably namespaces.

    This is a bold claim and one that needs backing up.

    Sure but even if you exclude Silicon Valley, the minimum wage for a US worker must be a fair bit higher than the equivalent non-US worker.

    Is it just about having dense industrial zones? I would have imagined cost of labor to be the major cause of price differences.
