“Neat.”

Is it not safe to expose externally with ssl yet?

My wife and I have been abusing our Ryobi for like 10 years. I thought it was finally dying, but then I got a new battery, still going strong.

I always start with harbor freight. When I break that one, I buy a nice version of whatever it was. I don’t buy “nice” tools very often. HF is nearly always “good enough.”

Ubiquiti has had outages in the past that meant you couldn’t manage the equipment right in front of you.

Even discounting the potential security implications of that kind of management, the rage I would feel in that situation is enough that I while my AP is nice, works great, I will never use any of their gateways.

I’m using a 2.5g protectli with OPNSense now, and it’s easy to manage, and all local.

So how long till the Supremes rule that CBP is not only allowed to search your phone but also to perform colonoscopies at checkpoints 100 miles inland and sell the resulting videos to extremely wealthy perverts?

Beyond any issues with the owner of the company, these cars have multiple dangerous issues.

You cannot treat a company that makes physical stuff that can endanger lives the same way you treat a software company that makes a leisure activity platform.

Iterative design for a purely software environment is way more forgiving than iterative design for physical hardware or even software that interacts with physical hardware. You can profoundly fuck up the backend for a website and take the whole thing down until you could roll back to last known good production, you won’t kill anyone, but you’ll make the line go down temporarily.

If you profoundly fuck up an iteration on an embedded vehicle system and don’t catch it because you don’t respect safety regulation or existing engineering norms you can and will kill people.

Analogue doesn’t have firmware that can reject a device based on id.

So you can reverse engineer a replacement part if you absolutely have to.

Good for them for attempting to redeem themselves after what they did to my potatoes. But I’ll never forgive them.

They may have fooled you with their cute little rolls and their ability to mitigate human pollution, but I see them.

That’s crazy. You can’t do six. It’s seven! SEVEN MINUTE ABS!

It’s a surprisingly good comparison especially when you look at the reactions: frame breaking vs data poisoning.

The problem isn’t progress, the problem is that some of us disagree with the Idea that what’s being touted is actual progress. The things llms are actually good at they’ve being doing for years (language translations) the rest of it is so inexact it can’t be trusted.

I can’t trust any llm generated code because it lies about what it’s doing, so I need to verify everything it generates anyway in which case it’s easier to write it myself. I keep trying it and it looks impressive until it ends up at a way worse version of something I could have already written.

I assume that it’s the same way with everything I’m not an expert in. In which case it’s worse than useless to me, I can’t trust anything it says.

The only thing I can use it for is to tell me things I already know and that basically makes it a toy or a game.

That’s not even getting into the security implications of giving shitty software access to all your sensitive data etc.

The real question is when they’re purchasing the child size targets.

This won’t have terrible consequences at all.

Welcome to late stage capitalism where the game’s made up and the points don’t matter.

Privatize the profits and socialize the losses.

I’ve tried to use “AI” to help me with minor programming tasks, or to start basic projects, it’s really bad. As in, it takes me more effort to fix the garbage it outputs than it would have to write it from scratch. In addition to that, it writes things badly in non-obvious ways. Junior engineers make similar mistakes to each other, because they’re working logically. “AI” makes weird mistakes because it’s not working in the same way a human mind does.

Til cromulent, thank you.

To save the Google: adjective with a humorous connotation meaning acceptable or adequate.

Gotta be able to boot Nazis. Otherwise it’ll be Nazi bar.

I’ve just rejected firmware updates and will continue to do so as long as possible. If it gets to where I can’t do that anymore for some reason I might leverage my professional expertise into remedying the situation more permanently.

They’re getting worse too. Retroactively blocking third party toner cartridges.

Wait till they hear about the guy who destroyed an entire social media platform for the same reason.

Zwave is great too, but still no video. Wired is the answer.

Didn’t they accidentally send supposedly private video to the wrong users recently?
