> I was working on the clearly mistaken impression that "Made by Anthropic" in the cursor store meant that the artifact had been signed by Anthropic. If that is not the case, then two party's need to get their act together:

Whoa! WTF? I always thought those were official releases by the companies. That's the only reason I trusted them. How is it possible they are being branded as official releases?

Geez, reading the site and realizing November 7, 2028 feels so far away.

Other than it changing hands a couple of times and it languishing for decades, both of which are pretty normal, the cleanup of the ship sounds largely successful. Almost like an example of how all cleanup projects should go.

Facebook was always doing this. It just wasn't proven they were.

VoIP has been around for 25 years. Compressed audio is a tiny amount of packets. It doesn't need HD audio, it just needs enough to recognize words. Enterprise VoIP only needed a 128kb connection 25 years ago to work. On a smartphone, 128kb is nothing and will blend in with background connections. Facebook could record and monitor your audio 24/7 and it won't even be a blip in the network traffic, especially if it does a quick process of the audio before sending it to Facebook.

Agreed, I briefly forgot it can do both. Thanks for the reminder.

I went down the rabbit hole of Incus and once I realized it requires the full network aspects to be configured, then I figured using KVM, QEMU, Libvirt was more practical. Then stumbled into nspawn and it was basically ready to go.

Although, I haven’t done enough research to know if Incus provides certain useful capabilities.

Could you share a bit about what you’re working on that requires a swarm of agents working so autonomously that you even need to worry about them making a public fork?

I’m a huge fan of nspawn. Always wanted to use VMs instead of Docker and nspawn feels like a natural choice.

I would say this probably spot on correct.

What would be more fascinating is for it to explain how it came to these conclusions.

Because I find it interesting it’s a modern time conclusion. Some of it mentioned god and the planet, but all the smartphone and group think aspects seem very recent. Basically, all politics and social media based.

She is MAGA because she knows that’s where the criminals and corruption hang out. She’ll need to play the Trump card at some point.

There were already really well written books on Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos. Why would we need a documentary now, and would it be accurate now so long after all the events? The books were written closer to the time of the events. I wonder how those writers feel about the accuracy of the documentary?

Cringe, yes. Trophy awarded.

ICE is still getting started. So, USA will be in the running to compete with Nazi Germany and North Korea, etc.

There was a thread on HN a while back and it was mentioned they do this to save on costs by making the customer jump through hoops and hoping they will go away. Also, the field techs are made to jump through hoops as well.

The ironic part is that Dell was once known to provide excellent onsite repairs without too much hassle. Now they are known for the exact opposite. So, someone at Dell is running their customer service into the ground.
