Code Name: Go Fish!
Code Name: Go Fish!
But we fixed this already, it was called TiVo…
…the combination of factors seems sloppy. Well put.
It could even be privacy preserving with the right implementation. With a bunch of device locations nearby you’re not hitting the server constantly and leaving a trail… but I think Apple just had limiting API hits and maybe computing.
So it’s possible to run this type of service with this type of database, without sharing BSSID locations with anyone else who asks.
Seems like apple was hoping to keep their API hits down at the expense of everyone’s privacy including their own customers. Very uncool.
I’ll have to dig it up tomorrow, but that was an illusion to a mountain climbing injury he sustained at some point earlier in life (to an arm) that left him in constant pain. He was able to function by mentally mastering the discomfort which he credited to meditation or something like that.
I believe it was an interview that aired on NPR at least 5 years ago.
I’m with you. When I saw The Saint as a kid it seemed like the perfect plan. Do crimes and retire when you hit 5 million ;-)
Seriously, I think it’s a widespread addiction. You see your nest-egg turn into millions and then billions… it’s got to be a rush.
It’s length does indicate he’s a successful man of means…
Wasn’t this guy hired to be some kind of poster-boy CEO because he has a highschool masturbation related injury that causes one of his arms to constantly ache? Why is he giving everyone business advice now?
So 214 people let the battery on their (USB Rechargeable) insulin pump die and reported it to the FDA…
Then again Tandem is kind of a shitty company. They based their algorithm in part on data from insulin pumps that had been returned to the manufacture for a software update. Without consent.
Switched from an industry standard luer-lock connector to a proprietary one after purchase. Then required all supply ordering to go through their own sales department and a single manufacturer.
Camped on the design for a small portable pump they patented back in 2012 until there was a viable competitor with innovative technology.
You know what… I think I have a phone call to make :-)
Which is why I used the former as an example and not the latter.
I’m not trying to make a general case for AI generated code here… just poking fun at the notion that a few errors will put people off using it.
[…]will only take a few hallucinations before no one trusts LLMs to write code or give advice
Because none of us have ever blindly pasted some code we got off google and crossed our fingers ;-)
At this point I’m assuming most if not all of these content deals are essentially retroactive. They already scrapped the content and found it useful enough to try and secure future use, or at least exclude competitors.
Thank you. It’s good to know I have a few options.
I can’t honestly say I’ve ever had much trouble with it either. No trouble receiving files at least… there wasn’t much outbound traffic, but that could just have been a lack of interest :-)
I’m happy with Mulvad’s service and now that the initial shock and indignation is wearing off I’ll probably stick with them.
Besides I read about their new traffic obfuscation and I’ve got to give that a try. We need proactive innovation like that, now more than ever.
Thanks for the tip, I’ll check them out.
Hum… this was one of the original reasons I signed up with them. I totally missed them dropping support. I’m not mad about it because I don’t torrent much anymore, but it’s still a pretty lame excuse.
I want all my services supporting maximum fuckery at all times as a matter of general principle.
Any alternatives that you know of?
Yeah. Although they were honestly long past their prime, and I wasn’t using them anymore so it’s hard to be upset.
They could even be set in RSTP mode before they dropped support from the app, so they could still be useful.
They just killed my nest cameras, but the thermostat is still supported. I was planning on replacing it with an ecobee this year just because API access is kind of a pain but this is giving me some second thoughts.
I’m still not entirely convinced people don’t join just so they can be dicks with impunity and collect a top tier salary/benefits package… I know there are good people too, but it’s hard to believe in the system as a whole lately.
But simply blaming capitalism is shortsighted. Which isn’t what you said, but I feel it’s worth stating. Incomplete theories lead to imperfect solutions and policing in this country is in desperate need of reforms.
I was scratching my head too…
I thought it was Covid but I’m starting to think he always looks like a plague victim in a renaissance painting…
