Its an open question if model weights are even copyrightable. So the license may not mean anything.

Phased arrays are their own lense.

Physical hardware products shouldn't lose features after launch. If this was a "mistaken" feature which they suggested it was they should have disabled it on future chips.

"consumers don’t shop based on the endurance metrics even if they should"

Its been well over a decade now and neither I nor anyone I know has ever had an SSD endurance issue. So it seems like the type of problem where you should just go enterprise if you have it.

But surely you see the core LLM innovation is that computers can now TALK to you.

I sign up if I want to do a long road trip and cancel after. Worked great for that.

They hadn't bothered to add ipv6 support to most of their services and the ones that did have it usually were only dual stack - still requiring an ipv4 address.

Wickard V Filburn is simply bad law... The federal government has way too much power and MUCH more than was ever intended. Its not a feature it is indeed a bug. One caused by the Supreme Court.

Excel needed the x87 as well as they cared about maintaining the 80-bit precision in some places to get exactly the same recalc results. So they would have fixed it eventually most likely.

Ah but see the most important piece of information is not what the manufacturer specifies. Most mechanic friends would tell you manufacturers are over-extending the interval to make their cars look good to purchasers and because they only care about getting to the warranty end not total life of the car. While 3k miles old wisdom is out dated, if you do your own oil changes you can see a massive change in what comes out after 5k miles.

By over specifying the question you will miss out on the more important context.

Ask a mechanic friend how often to do an oil change and they will 9 times out of 10 give you an answer without asking what model of car.

You'd still want in transit encryption. There are other methods than centralized trust like fingerprinting to detect forgeries.

At some point it makes sense to just let us use self signed certs. Nobody believes SSL is providing attestation anyways.

The most likely culprit was talking to other nodes via their public IP instead of their local ones. That gets billed as interent traffic (most expensive). The second culprit is your database or other nodes are in different AZs and you get a x-zone bandwidth charge.

Bandwidth inside the same zone is free.
