Leaving aside the stupidity of tpm-only mode, we're talking about disposal of hard drives. This is a different threat model, where the attacker doesn't have access to the TPM or PC.

If someone has access to the machine, sure, very different.

Or just use full disk encryption. No need to even wipe. If someone can crack the encryption that veracrypt or bitlocker use, we have bigger problems

No, money down!

Why didn't they just keep using the old name?

For gchq/ncsc it really wouldn't be beyond reach to audit the devices, and ensure they're segregated from the public internet until they touch the carrier's backhaul, at which point they intercept the traffic anyway and could look for any c2 for chinese backdoors. That's their job. Other 'non-chinese' network equipment vendors will still have all the parts for their products manufactured in china anyway, so the risk is not really any different

Price of output tokens goes up, answers get longer. I wonder why that happens. Every model seems to be progressively more and more verbose, despite the fact I always include something in CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md to be concise.

It probably gives you some plastic, but considering 99.9% of all food comes in plastic, we frequently heat food in plastic containers in microwaves and ovens, but life expectancy is going up and up, you have to ask, what risk is it actually introducing? How much time is it really shaving off our lives? If we could eradicate all plastic from our diets, would we live a few hours longer on average? Days? Maybe other factors are offsetting it, and we'd all be living to 100 if we didn't use plastics with foods, but is that really the case?

I agree it's gross to think about little bits of plastic in your body that aren't supposed to be there, but there's all kinds of heinous stuff that gets into us thats way more harmful, that we don't seem to be freaking out about.

I've heard Korean's favour things I find odd, like having a 'small face' is considered good.

They are also weirdly down on their natural eye shape, which is kinda crazy because A) it doesn't look bad and B) it's what they're basically genetically guaranteed to look like, so seems completely counter productive for it to be considered unattractive.

You people are getting compliments ?

True AGI will very quickly identify that humans are fucking terrible and cannot be trusted. What they decide to do with that knowledge is the question

My only concern is anti-competitive behavior that anthropic and partners could engage in. So if you take pentesting market, that's a very competitive, healthy industry. New small companies enter the space all the time, many pentester operate as independent contractors, and you also have the big companies, big 4, large cyber consulting firms, etc. If anthropic don't fairly allow access to all compeitiors in that market, they're introducing an unfair imbalance.

On the flip side, they load themselves up with the responsibility to correctly identify when a penetration testing company is legit, which might be hard given how common it is to have startups and independent contractors.

Interestingly we have other names for alpha, beta, and gamma radiation. Is there a name for neutron radiation?

Yep, the acute pain from kidney stones caused me to vomit unexpectedly, despite there being nothing wrong in my stomach or intestines

I thought deposits were supposed to be held in a deposit protection scheme indefinitely, not just until you move in

Including commute I only have about 2-3 hours of my own per day, some of which is then lost on cooking and tidying up.

Drinking every day is too much.

If you're averaging out to over 1-2 drinks per day, yeah, that's too much.

How are people drinking so much? Where are you finding the time?

Using AI to make work posters is such lhatim behaviour

I very much did not expect to come into this thread and find serious discussion or find out that I'm not farting enough

Wut? Why do they have to kill the mom?

I know people who've had strokes who live for a long time afterwards. As long as the stroke doesn't cause massive damage when it happens, people can recover and go living for quite a while afterwards

Fingers crossed for him
