That's the conundrum isn't it? Anyone that posts their datasets would be immediately sued/blocked/boycotted to oblivion due to the obvious and blatant data theft, not to mention IP and copyright issues.
By my calculations 100k could get you 18 5090's + compute to host them, or 18 96gb Mac mini's. You can get a lot of context window and users out of that setup.
This HN account is also by the same user as github, this submission may be AI created. I wonder if they've let **claw run loose over their whole online presence and this is the result.
If any single country tried to create a whole production chain to single-handedly manufacture modern computer equipment it would be on the order of decades to see any result. Doing it on the moon is just not realistic this century, maybe the next one. Although i don't think the economics would ever work out.
Hmm my Namecheap domains keep the location details even with WHOIS privacy enabled. To be fair they are 7+ years old so maybe something has changed in that time?
Lol, this website is registered to someone in Iceland, despite the assurance that it is a "security researcher living in the UK". I'm sure the results from this experiment will make a cool blog post about pwning tech savvy folks.
That photo you have provided is from a temple in Indonesia, and the Indian temple story you have summarised is regarded to be false, the carving in question was likely added during renovation during British rule.
unless the account isn't important - don't. By the time you have a setup that isn't at the mercy of ISP outages, blackouts, misconfigurations etc. you have invested a load of time and money for not much gain.
The developer has to enable running on Mac, but for those that have they run really well. Most feel perfectly native even though they were designed for iPad.
Even the iPhone 14 Pro with its very much upgraded camera can only *just* start to be within the same league as a standalone camera when it comes to dynamic range. Noise performance, detail resolution etc. are all still woefully inadequate. In any instance, a phone camera can take amazing shots (especially when in great light) but a very long way from being equal. Everybody has a different threshold for "good enough" however and they have met yours.
Amazon (the marketplace) invests it's revenue aggressively, although this serves as a loss on paper there is still a benefit to generating that revenue in the first place as it serves as investment dollars for other parts of the business
Completely see where you are coming from now - absolutely agree.
On your second point - where I am coming from is that there is nothing stopping countries from creating laws which introduce these powers and outlaw methods to avoid the new legislation. No it doesn't work with the current architecture. But we absolutely can end up in a situation where there is a U.S Ethereum chain where all nodes are legally required to follow updates/forks to the chain as they occur, caused by various court orders to reverse transactions etc. At this point the consensus can go whichever the government likes because those operating the nodes would want to be participating in the current legal chain.
Right - but nothing is stopping them from making that law. Countries aren't simply going to adhere to a digital currencies protocol or allow it to avoid regulation because otherwise it goes against the "community spirit".
Here we are talking about the hypothetical situation of the U.S claiming complete jurisdiction of Ethereum. The U.S could make whatever laws it likes around the usage of Ethereum, legislate that all nodes have to adhere to these laws and job is done. The rest of the world can say "lolbye" and continue using it like nothing has happened, but in the U.S they would likely have to fork and create a new chain, and those who want to use it legally in the U.S would also have to use this new U.S-regulated chain. From there they can then implement processes to reverse transactions, introduce identification requirements etc.
> but they can't force you to decrypt it if the key is lost or you don't give in.
A very US-centric view is it not? Many places can force you to decrypt something by law. In fact the US does on entry to the country and can refuse entry if you do not comply.
> there ain't shit they can do to actually enforce that demand.
Watch forks become more commonplace and "official" forks being recognised and non-official forks being barred from use in any legitimate transactions. The courts will have the power to force blockchains to reverse transactions or other fraud this way - at a technical level still quite difficult but if it becomes law then solutions to make it easier will be created. Perhaps to cherry pick transactions just like you can cherry pick git commits.
Lol, look at your own susceptibility to media first. Dominello's vaccination had nothing to do with his Bells Palsy and was way past the point of when the contents of the AstraZeneca vaccine he had taken 3 months earlier would have metabolised.
Who knew HackerNews of all places would have accounts spewing misinformation.
