I doubt there were any damages — they were already refusing to pay us any payments we were owed.

Same thing happened to us. We were large enough to have an admob rep who reached out to the IVT team for help. After our first appeal was rejected, our rep negotiated a second appeal attempt but he said “This time make sure you take full responsibility for the IVT getting through.

Funny part to me was Google was the only network bidding on these bots while others must have detected something and stayed out.

We submitted a second appeal taking full responsibility plus providing a long list of corrective action we took in house plus a full triage of what happened.

They again rejected our second appeal with no feedback.

They used ASML machines to make that…

The hot spare switchover idea is good. Another related idea: restore each from backup regularly.

Agree with this — the economics have completely changed. Along these lines, we all need to re-scope our personal cybersecurity.

For example, developers should no longer run dev environments on the same machine where they access passwords, messages, and emails — no external package installation on that box at all.

SaaS Password Managers — assume your vault will be stolen from whichever provider is hosting it.

Ubikeys will be more important than ever to airgap root auth credentials.

Every search query you’ve ever made is not available from any data broker and if you hear otherwise someone is lying

That assumes you live in a place where the traffic system handles all edge cases

Imagine a street where cars are moving at 2mph because of traffic. Cars can never cross unless someone yields

I wasn’t clear, but yes I meant in a car. During morning commute there are whole hours where certain roads are gridlocked leaving no space to cross. Beverly is one example of this.

There is no way to cross unless someone yields to let you through

If it results in less deaths then it seems likely to me

The problem we will encounter with self driving cars is that while they will make less mistakes than humans, they will make different mistakes.

Humans will continue to have a hard time accepting this tradeoff.

I live in LA where Waymos are now on every street. My experience is that they don’t respect human courtesy, so for example if I need to cross a lane of busy traffic, a human may brake as a courtesy to let me through. Waymos have fucked me over where a human probably would have shown some level of community and empathy.

The problem I’ve heard about small deals is that the bankers want a larger percentage. Can you comment on that aspect?

There is tons of public information online about it. This is a strange approach to claim that the only way to know about a topic is to become an investigative journalist making phone calls to research groups.

Most of the usable water supply annually in CA comes from the snow pack in the Sierra Nevada mountains.

This is also where the largest cloud seeding operations are.

People who claim cloud seeding ops only make a small impact on the usable water supply don’t understand that a small percentage shift in snowpack makes a difference between a drought and not a drought.

What I’m saying is that estimations of total cloud seeding water impact do align with the numbers needed to take the state out of a drought.

As I linked elsewhere there have been lawsuits in the past over cloud seeding causing floods.

Thank you. Every time I talk about cloud seeding in CA people have a strongly negative response without any facts and I'm not really sure why

To my point, liability concerns are listed on that pdf as a reason why Santa Clara County stopped.

Cloud seeding can definitely increase rain over California even by your logic. Clouds don't respect state boundaries.
