Sure. No AI for toy projects:. But the professional mission-critical ones, you should just let the LLM write them

Love the minimalist blog layout

Lots of paying customers also depend on the open source part of GitHub to run their business.

That sounds like an opportunity for GitHub to clip the ticket for providing a way for those businesses to support those projects more directly.

I'm actually surprised Claude was about to do that much.

I hadn't even considered handing it a visual mockup to work from. Event though that workflow is par for the course for any web design team.

I would assume there must be at least some prior work into locating individual assets in a larger canvas. It just needs to be integrated into the pipeline.

Major nitpick: ARK is not a hedge fund but an ETF. My understanding is that it tracks an actively managed list of public stocks.

I'm sure it's not much consolation, but "actual" hedge funds are for the sophisticated investor. These funds have access to more sophisticated ways of wiping out investor money.

You're right. Cathie Wood's ARK is all about "disruptive innovation". It's no surprise to see the fund falling after tech. stocks were so grossly inflated.

As an investment strategy, it's a long-term play. Whether the holdings make sense is a whole other question. But don't expect a huge change in strategy just because the markets are down.

Is this about the old DEC Alpha?

yes

Microsoft offering the Windows ISO for download is a recent addition.

If you had to restore a PC 10 years ago, your only options were to obtain a restore disk from the PC manufacturer, use a restore partition on the HDD (assuming it was intact) or buy Windows.

In the past, I had to get restore disk images on BitTorrent to fix friends computers.

Independent discovery don't happen overnight. Intel must have been aware of these vulnerabilities for some time.

edit: I'm sure everyone involved acted responsibly. I'm just curious as how far apart these independent discoveries were made.

The bug has been around forever, but it must have been discovered relatively recently since it's not fixed in hardware yet.

I've always been baffled by the concept of simultaneous discovery.

The Spectre paper includes this line in the acknowledgements:

> We would like to thank Intel for their professional handling of this issue through communicating a clear timeline and connecting all involved researchers.

So Google people and the Germans were working on the same thing without knowing of each other until Intel connected them?

Graz is in Austria, but considering these things are usually kept quiet quite long: probably yes

Google project zero blog says: We reported this issue to Intel, AMD and ARM on 2017-06-01

We talked about NSA and how people are leaving for greener pastures. Wondered two things:

1) Have any of them ended up in Project Zero or working on stuff like this

2) Wonder if NSA knew about this vulnerability and now someone there in a windowless office is sighing saying to themselves "Welp, another backdoor we can't use".

For the cloud providers it's the security of the hypervisor that's at stake.
