Then you don't have control or visibility over Apple or third-party apps sending analytics likely without your approval.
LuLu has a fatal flaw: it drops or closes TCP connections randomly resulting in dropped SSH sessions. No amount of TCP keepalives on the client- or server-side will resolve this. This makes it a non-starter for anyone doing anything real.
Also good:
- BlockBlock - disk access application "firewalling" on top of macOS'es privacy & security settings is very good
- RansomWhere? - ransomware process mass file change interception
Yes, and never forget Tesla refuses to sell repair parts when people have cash in hand, partially arbitrarily and otherwise deliberately. Also, their CEO performs Sieg Heil, and don't let anyone tell you it's a "Roman salute" because this is merely a cinema factoid. This is likely unavoidable when such a weirdo is placed on a pedestal like Henry Ford or William Randolph Hearst.
Siri, the app Apple acquired from a promising Palo Alto startup once upon a time, for close-ended, fixed phrase commands hasn't changed that much for accomplishing Apple-specific tasks. However, yes, going out to the interwebs or answering open-ended questions is more problematic now than it used to be.
Amazon's Echo has also enshitified such that many skills don't work and command phrases that used to work no longer give the same results. I used to be able to ask Echo "What's the IMDB rating for [movie name]?" but it invariably gives an unrelated or a wrong answer or does a HAL-9000.
It seems like an obvious category killer app to have an AI personal assistant able to perform free-form queries and operate on allowed services with a degree of trust and care so that it can't email everyone you've ever known a photo without a high level of interactive confirmation.
Even if this were a serious bill rather than ostensible fodder, the possibility of Fahrenheit 451 turning from an indexed satire into a documentary as it was ground into swarf and burned is doing anything but decreasing.
An iffy 3d-printed gun using crappy materials can technically work for a few hundred rounds doesn't mean much in a country full of lots of legal guns of all sorts. And while I don't want TdA mass-producing RPGs, but that's not a problem solvable by regulating milling machines.
The problem is some people want total, invasive, inconsistent control over what other people can do, make, and be for ideological reasons rather than rational ones.
I'm glad the reporters did the due-diligence to uncover that they had a prior beef with him. My reading is it appears "evidence" was made-up to get him kicked out a second time. Now the matter is in state court, so it seems like he has a strong case to prove to a disinterested judge or a jury with a functional brain that ChatGPT doesn't leave any form of signature and there's no deterministic method to distinguish human-generated text from that created by an LLM.
You're absolutely mistaken. These are obviously designed exclusively to bypass Taiwanese coastal defenses to move masses of extremely heavy vehicles rapidly a great distance over the coastal barriers. Ordinary transport ships that would move large quantities of heavy vehicles would be designed in a different manner that would load and unload slower, and wouldn't need absurdly-long, self-contained ramps.
Taiwan must immediately build littoral landing craft denial barriers in the regions just outside of the surf zone. They have a little time to mobilize and make these landing craft obsolete. Japan must also continue to prepare and coordinate joint exercises as they've been doing.
An engineer should learn first principles and master the tool rather than dancing around it or reach immediately for replacing it with something else. This is why the "replacement" tool "just" is fundamentally terrible because it doesn't do dependency checking and optimizes for the wrong things. Instant loss of efficiency throwing away the power and simplicity of makefiles (GNU extensions often needed).
Instead, (GNU or vanilla) makefiles are ideals for very simple, portable projects. Make is everywhere.
For anything complicated, a proper build system that doesn't use autotools like cmake or bazel.
He was successful at marketing extreme FUD books in the late 60's and early 70's, kind of reminds me of "the impending catastrophe" doomer like Thom Hartmann. Heck, even Jim Morrison had an opinion on the subject.
The reality (WRT to bulk metals) is that we get some "free passes" due to mining technological advancements, and that increased scarcity -> increased costs -> curtails wastes, encourages recycling, and drives substitutes.
More generally, peak production isn't a problem itself, per se. There is concern when there are risks for sudden shocks or collapse. If we suddenly ran out of phosphorous, that would be bad.
I think there is still a lot of waste that could be captured with cleverer engineering, especially ag runoff, in industrial process, and failure to capture material going into landfills. Perhaps in 100 years, we will be mining old landfills for rare earth metals.
