That's also how any good password manager works. You'd have to manually copy-paste the password to get around the same-site fill restriction (whether it's autofill or manual fill).
I don't think it's likely, but I think trentor might be suggesting that people simply aren't attempting to solve open math problems with Chinese models, even if they're roughly as capable on a cost-efficiency basis. If the people interested in paying to solve open theoretical math problems are almost entirely employed by entities that have large allowances from the U.S. frontier labs, they're going to use those labs' models, right?
I think it's false because there are many entities, especially outside the U.S., interested in math research, entities that would not have such Anthropic/OpenAI allowances. But it's at least a plausible application of the fallacy.
It's not the computer that did it. Microsoft did it. Microsoft enabled random hardware with random strings in their connection protocol metadata to point to software on the internet that Windows happily downloads and installs.
Strangely, nobody who runs linux has this problem.
Perhaps because windows "drivers" are so bloated with helper apps and other stuff that they can't possibly all be shipped to end users with the core OS.
the real one is

I hope you meant 1.0.2 or 3.2. There was never an openssl v2 release, so if that's what it's reporting, you have problems.
The program (unitary gigantic bash script) testssl.sh (github) can give you a thorough rundown on the ssl properties of whatever's MITMing you. The other possibility is that cloudflare is unusually serving you an alternate certificate and your ancient openssl and browser are both unable to handle whatever the presented cert algos/extensions are.
neat. you could save the s_client output to a variable, and echo it to the subsequent openssl commands, to be friendlier to the server under test.
Also, openssl allows chaining of all of those parameters (and more) except the two fingerprints simultaneously, and it even seems to honor command line order, so if you drop sha1 you can do a single openssl command to parse the s_client output, with ... -subject -ext subjectAltName -fingerprint -sha256 -dates -issuer ...
They can randomize (with bias for hot/recent content) entries on each page, but paginate them. FOMO will keep people clicking next even once they recognize some entries.
Putting aside the question of whether it will continue to work, even somewhat, against botnets, I find your first paragraph confusing.
Reload loops, or being able to "bypass" anubis (unless you merely mean bypassing it for the token validity period by solving a challenge), sound like misconfigurations. There's no reason for anubis itself to cause reload loops; it's tricky to configure a webserver to use it in some scenarios.
Any ability to bypass anubis probably means the site is using it in auth/challenge mode only, and then misconfigured their webserver's auth checking. Or it's a bug. If you mean the double-spend tavis mentioned in his blog post which previously made the HN frontpage, that was patched right after it was reported to the maintainer almost a year ago.
Anubis's default 1-week token lifetime may not be nearly enough to dissuade enough scraper networks to make a difference, particularly with the default weight->difficulty level hierarchy, but that's for individual site admins to determine.
We can all argue based on how we envision "ideal" scraper networks being run and whether the web-PoW concept would stand up to that. However, what matters at present is that anubis helps many sites cope with misbehaving bot scrapers written by the script kiddies you mention, who don't care if the internet burns as long as they finish their scrape 1 hour faster. If anubis motivates them to devote a few brain cells to make their scrapers smarter, they may also fix the scrapers to not take down the sites they're scraping.
You don't have to wait for the flood. You can add rules to add weight based on system load, and add more difficulty levels beyond the ones in the default config.
I've only just started using it, and the existing config DSL doesn't let you do this, but it's just a patch away (in principle): instead of using system load as a signal to increase or decrease weights, use a combination of finalized weight and system load (or a load-equivalent or net-traffic-equivalent signal from some openmetrics agent) to select between difficulty buckets.
So, as an example, difficulty could have an arbitrary scale independent of load, and regardless of that scale, it could increase by +1 at J% cpu, +2 at K% cpu, +3 at L% CPU, etc. It doesn't look like a challenge will re-appear currently if anubis determines that a client should get a difficulty N challenge, but they only have a token for an N-1 or N-2 challenge. That would be easy enough to change in principle, but there might have to be exceptions... wouldn't want to break XHR, or regular PUT/POST requests for a client that already has a token for a lower difficulty than is currently required.
> ...we have tried to minimize the impact on real readers as much as possible. We have not gone with tools like Anubis, partly because it causes annoying delays for those trying to get to the site, but also partly because it seems inevitable that the scrapers will eventually find their way around it. Indeed, there are some indications that is already happening. A proof-of-work requirement is not a huge obstacle when you have millions of other people's machines to do the work on.
It's massively less annoying than a captcha, which is both a longer delay (typically, at present) and a massive cognitive distraction/roadblock.
The anubis author has stated they recognize it's an arms race, but PoW scales. Captchas and other signals are already at the end of the road; any additional difficulty increases false bot-positives, which are already unacceptably high.
For websites running dynamic languages, a binary (anubis is in go) sentry that operates before[1] the website is forced to expend any resources, is usually a large improvement over a site-hosted captcha. I would rather, and I think most humans would agree, have to wait a few seconds, maybe even closer to a minute in the future, to get a website access token good for a day or a week, than be forced to solve a captcha.
The dilemma for bots: when tokens are bound to the connecting ip, scrapers must limit the connecting IP pool for each site they want to scrape, becoming much more obvious and easy to block, or they have to use massive amounts of compute.
[1] this is true regardless of whether anubis is in reverse proxy mode or auth mode.
We're killing a lot more people than that; if we'd just tax the rich at 80% and send all that money abroad, we'd save millions more. Failure to do that is mass murder, the same as decreasing foreign aid funding; that is your thesis, right, that it's mass murder?
Doing less to save people in other countries that have no legal demand on our treasury is not "being responsible for [their] deaths." It's tragic, and it may even be a bad policy decision, but there's no responsibility (in the "duty to prevent harm" sense) or evil there.
I'm not here to defend publishers or the insane current copyright terms. However, in the traditional model of publishing, publishers subsidize production of new books from unproven authors--through book advances, copyediting services, and printing and distribution costs--via the money they make on the few successful and very few ultra-successful books.
If you take away copyright, you reduce the revenue of publishers, which reduces the number of unproven authors they can take chances on. (They're not very good at picking winners from the pool of new author manuscripts, not nearly as good as "agents" like to think they are, but that doesn't matter; they still wouldn't be able to take as many chances.)
If knowledge is to be free, then any corporate/commercial interest that locks up modified knowledge (code) to run their own services should have that locked-up knowledge freed from their commercial silo as well.
A generation of kids have grown up with just such assigned adults, who overwhelmingly did not apply sufficient oversight to the kids' use of social media.
In large part that's because, if they'd done so, the kids would've been socially isolated from their peers, at least the most normal ones with the most normal parents, which are the kinds of friends most other normal parents want their kids to have.
It's a collective action problem, except instead of "I can be better off if I ignore what I know is best for society", it's "if I ignore what I know is best for my kids psychologically, they will still have friends, and social media brainrot is a lesser evil than socially isolating my kid from all the normal kids at school."
And also, giving kids social media interaction devices is a convenient form of babysitting. It reduces up-front effort of parenting.
