Another option is renting cloud GPUs only when you need them. A server with 8x B200 is around $32/hr.

Obviously depends on the use case and threat model, but that hardware is publicly available at far less than $500k upfront.

Plenty of room for a middle ground, like a static timestamp per session that shows expiration time, without the distraction of a constantly changing UI element.

I've heard multiple people claim an ankle weight on the steering wheel is sufficient for hands-free driving.

Most bitcoin transactions actually happen off-chain (aka "off the books"), mostly through exchanges but also through decentralized layers like Lightning Network. It's also possible to physically transfer value by exchanging a signing device or seed phrase.

In Virginia too, proposed in HB1124:

> The bill prohibits the use of autonomous vehicles as motor carriers of passengers or property without a human operator who (i) meets any state and federal qualifications for the operation of an autonomous vehicle; (ii) is physically present in such autonomous vehicle; and (iii) has the ability to monitor the performance of such vehicle and intervene in the operation of such vehicle, including operating such vehicle without the use of the automated driving system and stopping and turning off such vehicle if necessary.

Are those all Google employees, or does 250 also include long-term on-site contractors? I'm thinking security, maintenance, janitorial, etc

Mining bitcoin with a GPU hasn't been profitable in over a decade.

This used to be handled by selling full-version upgrades and providing patches between versions for free.

Which also makes it easier than ever for more users to run Linux as a desktop OS :)

I might be out of the loop, but if anyone else is confused about the version number:

> If you were expecting iOS 19 after iOS 18, you might be a little surprised to see Apple jump to iOS 26, but the new number reflects the 2025-2026 release season for the software update.

What's the difference between 1 & 5?

I've personally witnessed every one of these, but those two seem like different ways to say the same thing. I would fully agree if one of them specified a negative impact to productivity, and the other was net neutral but artificially felt like a gain.

See also L402 (previously LSAT), which has been in production use for half a decade at this point, by Lightning Labs (for their products Loop & Pool) via their Aperture proxy.

To be fair, it’s versions of Linux distros they test against in their CI.

Also possible they wanted to reduce the number of small animal carcasses to clean up, whether from the doorstep or interior of the home. Cats love to bring these as gifts to their keepers.

Interesting presentation, but the name is too generic to catch on.

> the lethal trifecta is about stealing your data. If your LLM system can perform tool calls that cause damage without leaking data, you have a whole other set of problems to worry about.

“LLM exfiltration trifecta” is more precise.

Nobody forced those people into that situation.

To illustrate this I like to use the analogy of very basic physics.

Even someone who never took calculus can usually grasp the concept of first learning ideal velocity and acceleration, then adding details like friction.
