It’s actually kinda easy. Neural networks are just weirder than usual logic gate circuits. You can program them just the same and insert explicit controlled logic and deterministic behavior. To somebody who don’t know the details of LLM training, they wouldn’t be able to tell much of a difference. It will be packaged as a bundle of node weights and work with the same interfaces and all.

The reason that doesn’t work well if you try to insert strict logic into a traditional LLM despite the node properties being well known is because of how intricately interwoven and mutually dependent all the different parts of the network is (that’s why it’s a LARGE language model). You can’t just arbitrarily edit anything or insert more nodes or replace logic, you don’t know what you might break. It’s easier to place inserted logic outside of the LLM network and train the model to interact with it (“tool use”).

Use it as a dumb worklog sometimes. Tell it what you were already gonna do and ask if it would do the same. It’s almost always gonna agree. Then just ignore it. If somebody AI obsessed pulls out the full logs they’re gonna see you’re doing what the AI said was good. (basically Inception, lol)

Depends on the provider. Many only allow a single use of the provisioning code.

Some providers does however let you create a new one whenever (meant to be used when you replace devices)

Gmail started at 1 GB, which was massive compared to anything from 1-20 MB at most hosts, and they made a point of storage per account growing over time until they jumped to 10 GB

Some Sony phones have that type of sensor

What TPM does for automatic unlock when combined with secure boot is to record certain steps of the OS boot and check various file hashes, if they’re unchanged then it releases the decryption key. This doesn’t authenticate the user but it verifies disk integrity (making sure your OS boots normally without injected malware), so your login prompt security can’t easily be bypassed*

* this does not prevent hardware based attacks like malicious RAM sticks or DMA attacks if the firmware isn’t patched

Then you could also set up separate home folder encryption and tie unlock to entering your password at login, or for various types of automated logins you could use the TPM again, like through checking for presence of some device you carry (like a smartwatch, etc), or even use a physical security key with one touch login (preventing remote attacks)

The number of decommissioned but still usable batteries are growing fast though, and plenty of storage sites use old battery packs, both from cars and home energy storage and stuff like it

And isn’t delivering there either

then people Microsoft go and delete the other copies leaving just the cloud,

Line Microsoft Onedrive repeatedly forcefully and silently enabling on-demand constantly, then occasionally fucking up and deleting unsynced files

They can still collaborate old school way. You can publish static mirrors of git, then take email patches lol

Is it a mobile SoC?

In Swedish, ända till ända

Yacy what you did there

Even as a Linux desktop it would mostly just be interesting for devs and people doing relatively lightweight 3D design work (especially because it will take a while before other distros support it), I don’t see it competing against regular desktops.

Any company who depend on their employees having a decent GPU will likely want to be able to upgrade/reconfigure new orders at will, and will prefer a tower, and they will prefer the quick repairability of a tower. Those who don’t are increasingly ok with using mini PCs.

Rumors is that the original Zen CPU SoC in the Steam Deck was also the leftovers from another canceled project by “a major OEM”, so it’s plausible. Sounds like Microsoft planned a handheld Xbox much earlier, which years after the Deck turned into the ROG collaboration, could have been related

That was barely a year or two. Bitcoin wasn’t very popular globally speaking when the first ASICs already was in development, and in between the two there was FPGA mining

Not really. Wrong type of math, not practical to reuse to break cryptography. There’s similar techniques that can be used against some algorithms, but not when set up like that.

The current mainland China gov never had any real claims to it. The argument they use is the same as for why they believe they have the right to enforce Chinese law on Chinese people abroad, including having their own secret police in other countries, etc, they simply don’t accept being anything less than the sole authority and sole representative for everybody they consider to belong to any ethnicity which is “theirs”. The claims on the island doesn’t really have much to do with the island, but that it’s populated with people they consider theirs.

The market can remain irrational for longer than you can remain solvent
