I mean, do you really think they were banned for national security reasons? Or to protect Tesla and US ICE manufacturers?

Yeah, with some minor exceptions (the interior door handles what the hell lol), my SL7 has similar interior quality to my Audi S4.

The subtitle is literally from I think you should leave, so yeah.

Out of pure curiosity, is it Claude Code only? Or other harness user agents? Just curious if there's something specific about CC that's encouraging the block.

It's now rolled out in Perth too, I think.

Can't imagine anyone I'd want reshaping society less than OpenAI.

As a West Australian this is so interesting to me, because gambling culture is extremely niche here - but WA law is that pokies are only allowed at the casino, nowhere else. And thank fuck for that.

We saw this coming (like most people) a while ago when Heroku started flaking without status updates, and moved part of our workload to Fly. We ended up moving off Fly as well (significant unreliability and just some very strange network load balancer issues that would cause us downtime) and went to Railway, and that's been fantastic so far. We've moved our whole workload onto it.

Nearly every transaction account in Australia now uses a debit card as the access card, usually Visa debit. Some people will have a credit card in addition to that.

As someone in this exact position, I swapped to CachyOS this week and have been extremely impressed. I've yet to come across a game that didn't function extremely well (I have not tested bf6 yet, which I suspect the anti cheat may fail on).

Watson was a marketing exercise designed to sell a bunch of disconnected text and image processing libraries pulled together by consulting services. It did not function as advertised.

At one point we worked with a large energy company that was basically sold something LLM-like (large-scale indexing and searching/querying of documents) in 2016 or so. IBM had a team of 90 people doing full-time data ingestion for something like 26,000 documents. We got asked to do a counter-product in two weeks, which was literally just a TF-IDF search and some smarts around ingesting different types of documents. Both solutions performed approximately equally, except one cost something in the order of $185m and one cost $40k. Watson continued running for about a year until an external data science contractor realised they could query Watson for highly confidential board meeting notes, and it would provide full previews into the documents. The project was shuttered shortly after.

Alas, nobody gets fired for hiring IBM.

I mean I understand that's the goal, but in this specific CVE it looks like the issue was introduced in Bitnami's own scripts sitting on top of everything, so a ideally-zero-CVE underlying OS isn't going to solve that problem at all.

It also seems like this set of changes was made in this specific way to forcibly disrupt anyone using the existing images, many of which were made off the backs of previously existing non-bitnami open source projects, so I assume you can understand why people are annoyed.

But again, anyone with any knowledge or experience of Broadcom saw this coming, so...

As someone who's currently experiencing significant and crippling gastroparesis due to GLP-1's, being reductive about the side effects is not particularly helpful.
