The EU has found a clever way to charge US tech companies for market access without triggering a WTO violation.

I do have a private benchmark I use for that. I have a repository with an in-progress codebase and a very large planning document, I tell the new models to simply finish everything in the planning document, and I never push those changes. All of the recent models have essentially gotten it perfect which means that the models are all equivalently good for my level of needs.

But that's a genuine worthwhile capability. It's like benchmarkmaxxing on a weightlifting competition by getting really strong.

> and another device would have similar risks

Do you think an Apple TV and a Walmart special TV have same risks? I don't. I give the Apple device my network credentials and the TV never sees them.

If you don't ever give your network credentials to the Smart TV you've closed off 99% of the attack surface.

The much simpler way to avoid squatting is to make .com domains cost $200 a year. This will instantly end the vast majority of domain squatting on the .com TLD and if people can easily get the .com they need for their business then the other TLDs are not going to have much squatting activity.

I don't think that anyone claims that there aren't any legitimate sites on .garden, but the risk of using an abuse-prone TLD is that Bayesians are going to assign you an increased prior risk of abuse. Honestly the TLD is making more money from the abusers than from Plantura so they're not going to tighten up their ship, Plantura should probably move to a different TLD.

One theory is that Elon Musk ends up being able to build AI datacenters faster and more cost effectively than anyone else, which seems plausible given the success of Tesla Gigafactories.

Western governments should treat large-scale scammers and the countries that protect them as an act of war.

They stopped making the B-52 64 years ago. The US military is depending on planes that are simply too old and need to be refreshed.

Your product helped our kids stay connected to their grandparents and cousins during the pandemic. One of the greatest things we've ever owned.

Facebook Portal was the best piece of consumer electronics I've ever owned. It was a huge boon to our family and the grandparents to stay connected through the pandemic. Grateful that it existed and hope that something as good can someday exist again.
