Open the disks, take the platters out, you can smash them. Or, if you’ve been naughty, you can borrow a belt sander and sand them down to naught.

Counter-counter point: people don’t get a Mac or windows laptop to learn about osx or windows. They generally want to run software or at least browser to do what they need to do.

Uh, memory metrics in Linux are a pain. The only tool that reports most cached as available is htop. free, top and a lot of other software (like node_exporter) will report that a lot of cached memory is not available.

To OP: don’t worry, a lot of Linux tools are smart enough to give back memory if memory pressure rises.

Microsoft is big tech, and GitHub is owned by y Microsoft.

This. Well put.

…and then you learn that packageX v1 is not maintained anymore and relies through a deep set of dependencies on a seriously vulnerable package (in a version which is also not maintained anymore).

Sorry, I had a pretty eventful December :)

My take is that it’s already your systems feature, rather than admins responsibility. If you treat departments like customers, you’d find a good way to spread the costs. If something is just a „common infrastructure”, you will always find something that makes costs that doesn’t have an easy way to track who triggered that - because you don’t pass enough information with it.

Not sure what is hard in it - you need consistent tagging, and that by itself gives you a lot of mileage in cost explorer.

This is not an unusual comment section on Phoronix, to put it mildly.

Walk without a rhytm, and you won’t attract the worm!

Lots of hardware lies about its useful capabilities.

Can you run 4k? Of course. But can you run more than 4 frames a second?

Both are valid (if you’d add seconds) in both RFC 3339 and ISO 8601, but timezone support is the same here and there…

Yeah, and the same thing would happen if e.g. PII or HIPAA related would end up in trained model. The fact that some PII or health data ended up being publicly available, doesn’t mean that automatically you can process or store such data, and train on such data.

If you do stuff, earn from it, and ignore parties and their rights, you are forced to compensate. I guess it will be peanuts though.

The AI companies shown that they are incapable of regulating themselves on this topic, and so people with art at stake should force their hand.

Open source or not doesn’t matter here, what matters is the copyright. If even Disney can defend works they own (whatever their ethics), so should anyone else.

That’s exactly what’s at stake, waiting to be sufficiently litigated. And I hope that creators will win, and that they would be able to tell if they allow richest big tech companies in the world to train on their creations.

It is missing one point: as a creator, I want to be able to forbid you from training on my creations. And the only tool that could enable that is the copyright enforcement over AI training.

I live in central Europe and work remotely with US team. Most people locally work from 7-8, I start work at 10.

10 years ago I’d be awake from 12 till 3 in the morning, it took me a few years to migrate towards 10 till 1. I still do oversleep on weekends, though.

It’s not about not using safety standards.

It’s about learning how to drive in a way that you won’t put anyone else in danger.

Safety fearures are only a tool, you are the person who controls a 2000 pound vehicles that can kill others, so drive responsibly.

This is so fucking stupid because you can apply it to literally any safety standard.

And then you write something exactly opposite.

OP writes about “drive to the conditions” which is like… Your responsibility as the driver. If you can’t react to people on the road, slow down.

And you write about being recless.
