You could call this concept "The Art Gallery of Babel". https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2F...

Have other Apple-supplied HTTPS client components also been checked for this sneaky wire-tapping enablement?

Nevertheless, this only needs to combine with a hidden shim proxy to enable man-in-the-middle attacks, with susceptibility to wire fraud and content tampering.

Also, does the Mac manpage for curl disclose this modified effect of -cacert? If not, then the software is being fraudulently misrepresented.

And on a whole different note, is it possible Apple received a National Security Letter (NSL) compelling them to make this sneaky modification, to enable Federal eavesdropping? Notably, Apple long ago stopped maintaining their warrant canary.

I think sometimes the difference is only apparent once you get the product.

Also, if it the seller tries to pass the product as being made by a human artist but it's instead AI generated, some form of fraud is being committed: Some buyers care about the provenance of the product, especially in art.

Over time, I expect to see a lot more EVs carrying backup generators and fuel tanks.

I suppose "regulated activities" refers to things like giving legal, financial or medical advice. That would make sense.

This doesn't pass the "reverse the roles" test. If I create a job fair for everyone and then I actively promote it to men, that would be [rightly] viewed as discriminatory. This is exactly as bad. Discrimination against men is unfair and illegal.

Here's a straight-forward solution: Force airlines to publish the cost of each seat on the airplane. Just don't let them charge a different amount to different passengers depending on where else they are going, whether they are coming back or how late they bought their ticket. I would even disallow frequent-flier programs. If you want your customers to be loyal, give them excellent service.

I am generally in favor of free markets, unless a free market is not working, and in this case it's not working. Airlines play so many shenanigans with prices that it creates a very asymmetric market, where they have all the information and the consumers are thoroughly confused.

I don't want to be a prick, complaining about spelling and punctuation errors, but I honestly can't make out what you are saying.

I'm still using the same PC I bought in '99, and it's still going strong. It's only needed a few new motherboards, cases, power supplies, RAM, disk drives, monitors, keyboards and mice.

Short-nosed dog breeds such as Pugs, Bulldogs and French Bulldogs are often cursed to a lifetime of suffering from brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome. Some careful gene patches could make this issue completely disappear.

Does this paid option come with contextual awareness and strategic competence? Or is that too much to ask right now? Will ChatGPT stay forever crippled in its own version of the Scunthorpe Problem?

I have followed Yann LeCun for a long time, and these comments seem out of character. In Machine Learning there is a long history of clever implementations of old ideas propelling the field forward. In this case he sounds a bit like Jurgen Schmidhuber, complaining about a recent success not being innovative and not giving proper credit to people who couldn't get similar ideas to work decades earlier. I hope Yann doesn't slip further in that direction.

The same should apply to every fossil fuel, regardless of its use. Actually, it would be easiest to tax at the extraction point. The market would then push people to decide if we really need things overnight or not. The fact that there is no political will to impose such a tax means that we are doomed to burn every last drop of oil and every last chunk of coal we can cheaply extract.

Now could be a really good time for Taiwan to start moving its plant to USA, and cut a deal with USA to get an allocation of land with a semi-autonomous administrative district. Then, China can have Taiwan with the compliments of the entire west. They can have that little island, with all the charred concrete rubble of demolished buildings.

Such a relief to know that once that happens, all Windows users will immediately stop using Internet Explorer and switch to a currently supported browser. Won't they???
