All Apple mobile devices I've used have had some form of low-level forced reboot method, akin to holding down your PC's power button. Though I can't say whether it's also something one could subvert with a BootROM exploit.

Nope, the kernel can load static ELF binaries. ld.so is only needed for dynamically linked binaries, and in fact many Go applications (for example, as they're statically linked) ship as containers with nothing but the single binary.

I've found this to be effective as well. Claude generally immediately identifies the stupid code pattern it used and tries to fix it (with somewhat varying results).

90% of 30% of total energy use. So, actually 27%. What a title.

I wonder how this compares to GrapheneOS in practice.

>Operated by Murena, your Murena Workspace account @murena.io is at the centre of the ecosystem, allowing to store, back up and retrieve your data safely on remote servers.

This sounds like their version is somewhat married to Murena. While probably better than Google, still not independent.

They're also advertising features such as "hiding your IP address [...] when you feel like it" – which sounds a lot like a VPN – without mentioning much about who the traffic is going through or how they might log it.

The Europeans have already cooperated with Americans so that each could read each other's citizens' private messaging which would be illegal for the locals.

Keeping the data overseas by design would just make this easier.

Greylisting is great until it delays your email login/signup verification codes for 20 minutes. Especially if they expire in 15.

I guess this only shows how email is used for entirely orthogonal purposes now.

Per the tweet linked in the article there were also random bans in addition to the ban feed shitposting.

Python has LiteralString for this exact purpose. It's only on the type checker level, but type checking should be part of most modern Python workflows anyway. I've seen DB libraries use this a lot for SQL parameters.

It does, especially at the scale of operating systems.

Bugs and vulnerabilities are always being found, with fewer and fewer people in the pool that might even theoretically want to pay for fixing them.

Also, hardware does deteriorate, and the story is the same for adding software support for whatever is currently available in hardware.

Based on the various benchmarks linked here and in the OP, the name feels justifiable. "Mini" models tend to be a lot worse compared to the base model than this one seems to be.
