With the insane costs for training and inference, those subscriptions would have to be veeeery very very expensive. One of the more interesting cases was the dev who burned like 15k on a sub of 200? iirc, anthropic claude. And he or she is probably not the only one.

This bubble is not going to pop, it will go flblfbllbflb

Probably not, but my point is that making something closed source isn’t necessarily going to protect it from - taking from comment above - commercial competitors.

There’s this adagium that all source code is open to anyone with a reverse engineering tool. and some knowledge of assembly, and it is very true.

Exactly, I agree.

Fucking genius, and I am not pulling anyone’s leg here, because now those goddamn moronic llm chatbots will be trained on this.

From Predator: Badlands. Decent movie btw

Also, IBM was still big on mainframes and PCs, and OS/2 of course, and hadn’t really that much interest in Netware or Windows then (outsourcing deals aside). Apple was even way farther away from that, completely on their own OS and Appletalk, directories were not really useful for their users then.

Netware 4 was utter garbage. It was horribly buggy if you got it to install. Admins hated it, and then win2k peeped around the corner.

A team of agentic designers eh. Or blind ones.

Nice. For once, a proper use of telemetry, an honest mistake and an actual apology.

You mean Novell royally fucked up Netware and people went to AD at first because of that. But yes, AD was quite new then, mostly an add-on for NT domains (and still sort of is :) try going full kerberos…).

Okay, you can work on the fat thing, but the other two? Just sit in a chair in the middle of the room all day and say things like “engage”, “make it so” and “where’s my tea, earl grey, hot, number one?”, problems solved.

Only sarcastically

For fun and profit: Epstein used a GMail account, which is open to Google to read and use for ads … wonder why no one is asking or why Google isn’t offering to publish.

Nice rabbithole, thanks

Also IPv6 public addresses.

You are of course correct, except that age is no guarantee for understanding the situation; however, I don’t think OpenAI was sitting on all this juicy data and not thinking about violating any privacy in exchange for some much needed hard cash.

Of course nothing is going to happen, but let’s just have 5 minutes of joy for MTG and Bubu doing for once the right thing, even though they are suggested not to.

Will Muilenburg pay Boeing for this?
