what bothers me is not that this issue will certainly disappear now that it has been identified, but that that we have yet to identify the category of these "stupid" bugs ...

Some further digging ...

-------

$ dig vivianvoss.net A +short @8.8.8.8

78.46.78.181

$ curl -v4 https://vivianvoss.net/ 2>&1 | grep -E "Connected|error"

* Connected to vivianvoss.net (78.46.78.181) port 443

* OpenSSL/3.0.13: error:0A00010B:SSL routines::wrong version number

$ curl -s https://ipinfo.io | grep org

"org": "AS7922 Comcast Cable Communications, LLC",

Same IP you're hitting, same port, but Comcast's xFi Advanced Security seems to be MITMing the connection before TLS completes.

I hate Comcast so much ...

$ dig vivianvoss.net A +short @ns11.infomaniak.ch.

78.46.78.181

$ curl -v https://vivianvoss.net/ 2>&1 | tail -3

* OpenSSL/3.0.13: error:0A00010B:SSL routines::wrong version number

* Closing connection

curl: (35) OpenSSL/3.0.13: error:0A00010B:SSL routines::wrong version number

$ curl -v http://vivianvoss.net/ 2>&1 | grep Location

< Location: https://www.safebrowse.io/warn.html?url=http://vivianvoss.ne...

$ whois 78.46.78.181 | grep -i netname

netname: HETZNER-RZ-NBG-NET

$ host 78.46.78.181

181.78.46.78.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer min2max.run.

The domain's authoritative nameserver (Infomaniak) points vivianvoss.net at 78.46.78.181 — a Hetzner box in Germany with rDNS min2max.run. That server redirects HTTP to SafeBrowse.io and responds to TLS handshakes with garbage. Not a local issue, not a DNS hijack — the A record itself is wrong.

so .. if i'm getting this right, this is an article about security, but the author can't be bothered to configure https correctly?

this looks very awesome. can someone tell me why there is no chatter about this? is there something else out there that blows this out of the water in terms of ease of use and access to sample many LLM's ?

From the related article: https://www.quantamagazine.org/avi-wigderson-complexity-theo...

> ... if a statement can be proved, it also has a zero-knowledge proof.

Mind blown.

>Feeding the pseudorandom bits (instead of the random ones) into a probabilistic algorithm will result in an efficient deterministic one for the same problem.

This is nuts. AI is a probabilistic computation ... so what they're saying - if i'm reading this right - is that we can reduce the complexity of our current models by orders of magnitude.

If I'm living in noobspace someone please pull me out.

thank you for that. I startled the dog with that laugh :)

nature says eat or be eaten(or die). now that we are on top of the food chain, it's useful, for mental health and societal reasons, not not want to rip every one's throat out, even thou every other species (including us) continues to do so. You tend to steer and veer towards what you look at. The good news is we get to choose what we look at... the bad news is we (statistically) choose wrong. Race car drivers don't look at the wall when they drive, because when they do, they tend to hit it. stop looking at the wall guys ...

Rather than having selections for multiple languages (for each task) it seems like language detection or a selection/setup screen would be best. With fallback, to english, or whatever your default is. Maybe use online translations services?

edit: Oh it seems you do have a language drop down, but there are still multiple languages appearing in quests... this just means more quests I guess eh :)

Bravo! Well written and informative! And as someone who's obsessed with Dart at the moment timely! Thanks!

This is exactly like what I was looking for but it seems very incomplete. Does anyone else know of a resource like this that isn't the first hit on google?

I prefer the more deep dive approach presented by brendan gregg http://www.brendangregg.com/ebpf.html

It made me cringe reading the first line "The Linux kernel is an abundant component of modern IT systems". Come on guys, it's the kernel, there is one of them per system.
