They explicitly lean in to cyber work, and they appear to be very permissive from their marketing:

> This is particularly important in cybersecurity, where provider-level refusals can block legitimate vulnerability research and incident response, and where losing access to a capability mid-incident can itself become a critical security risk. ML4 pairs top-tier cyber performance with open weights and self-deployment, giving organizations both the capability and the autonomy to run advanced security work under their own policies.

> That top score reflects a practical advantage. Several leading closed models, including Claude Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Astra, score near zero on the same test because they refuse to perform the task. Yet defending software often starts with proving that a flaw is real, exactly the kind of work safety filters in closed models can block. This matters even more as threat actors increasingly jailbreak those same models to support offensive cyber activity

I believe it is already available in the API no?

yeah, it's honestly amazing just how badly anthropic managed to screw up something in claude after 4.6. its night and day, and every time I see claude doing something stupid, i instantly realize I was accidentally on Opus 5

I really thought this post was gonna be adjacent to the hip-hop group, and I was patiently waiting to be told that Poppin one's Collar accounts for a pecker deficit.

> But if you actually have made things complicated enough [...]

The only problem I see in this case is that complexity doesn't come all at once. By the time you reach a problem that k8s is good at solving, you've probably already accidentally made a k8s alongside your piece of software.

In my(quite short) SWE career, I've seen software evolve, even ones with a proper design stage. Maybe I just don't have enough experience to have seen a properly designed project, but I don't know what I don't know after all.

In their paper, point 5.2.5 talks about their sandboxing platform(DeepSeek Elastic Compute). It seems like they have 4 different execution methods: function calls, container, microVM and fullVM.

This is a pretty interesting thing they've built in my opinion, and not something I'd expect to be buried in the model paper like this. Does anyone have any details about it? Google doesn't seem to find anything of note, and I'd love to dive a bit deeper into DSec.

I agree. Ever since the release of R1, it's like every single American AI company has realized that they actually do not want to show CoT, and then separately that they cannot actually run CoT models profitably. Ever since then, we've seen everyone implement a very bad dynamic-reasoning system that makes you feel like an ass for even daring to ask the model for more than 12 tokens of thought.

It should be noted that the CIX P1(this board's SoC) has ongoing efforts to be upstreamed. Last I checked, the GPU drivers were still not available(due to them not supporting ACPI? I may be wrong on this) and power draw being weird and stuck at 10-15ish watts. It seems like this blog confirms nothing has changed on those 2 points.

With that being said, CIX and their main board partner, Radxa, have been open with the UEFI.

I am not an expert in low-level environments such as the kernel or the UEFI, but if these tidbits sound interesting I would encourage anyone who is to look further into the CIX P1. To my untrained eyes, CIX looks like a company that is working towards a desktop/laptop chip with real UEFI/ACPI support. I look forward to the day it is polished up a bit.

Despite being a game framework, due to LuaJIT's great FFI you can just write whatever. I recently made a tool that captures frames from GTA:SA using GDI, and when holding ESC only show gameplay frames. It's an anti-epilepsy 'filter' for pause buffering intended for streaming. Now I just need to start streaming SA speedruns.

What community is there to house around Microsoft Copilot? Seriously, why does Microsoft Copilot need a Discord Server? What do I talk about when I join the Microsoft Copilot server? What are we doing here?

The truth is that even with KeePassXC, I just really do not notice stale passwords across devices. It's just really not a huge deal for me personally. Maybe it is for normal people. I sync my databases maybe once a year if I'm lucky.

It doesn't sound strange, it actually sounds sane and what everyone should be doing.

At the same time, I can't imagine the last time I had a random exception I didn't think about in prod, but I guess that's the whole point of the BEAM, just don't think about it at all.

I might take a stab at Elixir, the concepts seem interesting and the syntax looks to be up my alley.
