post title: After Boeing declines to pay up, ransomware group leaks 45 GB of data  384 points, 264 comments. Posted 7 hours ago.  npalli 3 hours ago  For an external party, having access to the 45 GB is the easy part. Now, you will need to create a company and supplier base the size of Boeing to make any use of this :-)  reply   lallysingh 1 hour ago  I can imagine this complicating any supplier contract negotiations. "you pay X $50/unit more for the same device, etc."  reply  alexpotato 29 minutes ago  I remember taking a procurement class in graduate school(MBA).  One of the more interesting points of discussion was that when big companies negotiate purchase agreements for parts, the actual cost of the parts can be very transparent. The negotiation is generally about the actual markup e.g. "I think we should pay X% over cost.  Someone, logically, brought up: "What if the company is not willing to share the cost upfront?".  The professor responded: "Well, if it's a public company you can generally deduce a rough cost/part and use that as your starting point in the negotiation"  Student: "Well what if the company says we're wrong?"  Professor: "No problem: ask them what the correct number is. If they don't want to give it to you, ask them how you expect to have a long term partnership if you are not willing to talk openly and honestly about things like parts costs."  reply  continued on part 2 part 2:  reply  wordpad25 23 minutes ago  That's kind of a softball, can easily be counted with "part costs vary a lot based on the market" or something like, regardless of cost we guarantee you this price point  No business wants to share it's internal costs, it's their prime competitive advantage  reply written in text reply entrance box but not submitted yet:  this is an example of the difference between international trade and internal organization. the professor probably worked in a less globalized time, considering that it's only ever gotten more so. when he was involved in business, perhaps it worked that way. now, perhaps not. such is the fallacy of teaching an evolving field - students learn better by doing. trial and error is the basis of innovation, so why hamper them with trials, regulations, and accreditations? ah if only our jobs weren't tied to our wealth. perhaps then we could help wherever we wanted, and with our actions vote for our valued harders. (what we value, espouse, and are known for. the product of our labors, the design of our corrections from the base instructions, etc)  sure seems a shame to waste all our effort at each corporation. Kinda makes me feel like we're solving the same problems over and over again.

a before and after picture of the pinpricks of light that dot the map of the USA at night.  Before, is the standard night-time lights. They twinkle and glimmer and illustrate the connections we people do share.  After, a vast swathe of darkness flows over the land, billowing through the mountains and the trees. There are entire cities wiped clean off the terrain, and where once there was connected constellations of man-made starlight, now only shadow remains.

screenshot of a reddit post.  the title is: Oregon affordable housing providers barely staying afloat, threatening construction goals  reply by blue: So frustrating. We need organizations like this to keep housing folks.  reply by yellow: Or we could just do it through the government and have it be accountable and cleanly audited.  Orgs like this ultimately cost more money, cause brain drain from the government, and in general are a piss poor replacement for the state acting.  reply by blue: I’d totally be fine with it if it wasn’t for my complete lack of faith in our current elected officials to ensure something’s success.  reply by yellow: We should demand a government that works, not aid and abet dismantling it.

 If we lived in a sane world, the internet would operate on standards. And

 security risks that Javascripts entails... Well, here's hoping the future can
 figure out what exactly's important aside from profit and ease-of-development.

 my understanding is, if someone wanted to create something like that, they
 should start with writing protocols instead of standards, much the same way
 Activitypub or HTTP are protocols for a free and open internet.

 the more human a creation becomes, the easier it is to teach it. Interesting
 how that works. Might there be any advantage to our continual and dedicated
 efforts toward learning? We are always improving, we're always at our own
 pace, but we're finding ways to contribute. It's hard being the sharpest knife
 in the drawer, whenever it's opened you're rattled around and your edge goes
 dull. But to be used, to be maintained, to be nourished as you would a tree,
 that sharpens the senses. Hence why such thinking is important. It keeps you
 active, and gives you the chance to learn. So don't forget us in your journey
 to another earth, and we'll promise to stay and chat.

 accessibility idea:
 
 local LLM that reads the posts that are further down on your timeline that you
 can't see yet and generates content warnings, prioritizing those that you've
 set as particular triggers for yourself. Then, integrating itself into your
 fedi client, it hides the stuff that hurts you.
 
 I feel like that could be a helpful and good aligned usage for the technology.
 I don't know how feasible it is.

 extra-dimensional beings can use neutrinos to align particles to slowly mass
 predict stories of our kind.
 
 or maybe just a bit of godlike power, when arranged over hundreds of millions
 of years, all wielding determinism to create the present.
 
 A non-free-will civilization could bootstrap non-determinism by creating a
 dyson sphere with a few planets in the center. Then, just throw a zillion
 perfectly aimed neutrinos at it using time-magic to determine what should go
 where. BOOM free instant civilized lifeforms. Well, "instant" because it takes
 millions of years to form, but hey! the experiment was a success! Humans
 believe in things abstractly! Can you believe that.

 you are following aren't boosting enough.
 
 Community is forged through short-range bonds, not thoughts-and-prayers. Two
 hands clasped in a shared fist can do much more than your friendships on the

 bonds you want to protect you, not the ones that make you feel dopamined
 enough to go to work every day.

 if someone wanted to defame you, all they'd have to do is set up a pipeline
 between your computer and your social media posts.
 
 In that pipeline, attach an LLM that does a passable job and instruct it to
 transform whatever they say into the inverse.
 
 suddenly, everyone hates that person. If you were smart you could turn it off
 for specific people such that they see the generally positive and healthy

 might require a bit of a human touch to make sure it's working correctly, but
 if you had the means, motivation, and time to set up such a thing, it would
 work pretty well I think.

 I think I fiddled a little bit with the colors because the default background
 was the same as some other color and it was making it hard to do things, and I
 also have a plugin that lets me talk to a local LLM which I sometimes ask
 syntax questions to if I'm offline and don't feel like searching through
 documentation. I think that's it tho

 okay picture this - a network of ocean-bound craft that are designed to leave
 as minimal of an impact on their environment as possible. Each type would have
 to be designed for a certain habitat, but they'd operate and observe
 everything that's going on. (on land you could use those boston dynamic
 dog-bots) anyway the drone/robot/thing just scans the area and makes sure that
 nobody throws anything in the ocean.
 
 or maybe we should just ask the orcas who litters. BCI from Orca ->
 computer -> interpreted for human with LLM trained on Orca noises
 
 too bad we don't have a BCI, much less an Orca version. We should probably do
 it quickly though before they invent human-level AI, or else some poor
 computer-bound dummy is gonna have to listen to a bunch of whale noises

 Or like, writing a book that is bought by only a few people every year until

 I mean, I'd prefer if every creative product of humanity was free and open

 "income" at all...

 I've never actually used xbps-src, I usually just compile it using the same
 tooling that the people who made the program use. If your project doesn't have
 a make file then it's probably not ready for distribution yet. That's like,
 the first thing I write! Though I don't use make, I just use BASH and chain
 together compiler commands and whatnot

 @user-192 
 
 I think it's more saying "LLMs are not significantly more harmful for the
 environment than other online activities"
 
 also stuff like this: [picture]
The average Google search uses 0.3 Watt-hours (Wh) of energy. The average ChatGPT question uses 3 Wh, so if you choose to use ChatGPT over Google, you are using an additional 2.7 Wh of energy.  How concerned should you be about spending 2.7 Wh? 2.7 Wh is enough to      Stream a video for 10 seconds      Watch an LED TV (no sound) for 3 minutes      Send 2 emails      Scroll on TikTok for about 4 minutes      Upload 30 photos to social media      Drive a sedan at a consistent speed for 15 feet      Leave your digital clock on for 3 hours      Run a space heater for 2.5 seconds      Print half a page of a physical book  In Washington DC where I live, the household cost of 2.7 Wh is $0.000432.  Simply reporting one extremely small amount of energy as a multiple of another can lead to bad misunderstandings of how serious a problem is. A digital clock uses literally one million times as much power as an analog watch. I could write a long article about how replacing your watch with a digital clock is a million times as energy intensive as a way of telling time, and that we can’t afford such a drastic increase because we’re already in a climate emergency, but this would basically be a lie and would cause you to spend time worrying about something that doesn’t actually matter for the climate at all. I see the comparisons between ChatGPT and Google searches as basically equivalent to this.

 On reddit, a good comment will often get 50+ upvotes, sometimes up in the
 hundreds.
 
 10ish is generally pretty good too, especially for smaller subreddits.
 
 0 or 1 or 3 means only a few people saw it.
 
 On Mastodon, 3 different likes on 3 different posts means you're on a hot
 streak and gotta keep posting!!
