tiberious726··on Reclaiming IPv4 Class E's 240.0.0.0/4
You mean this? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6#IPv4-mapped_IPv6_addres...
tiberious726··on 'Right to roam' movement fights to give the commons back to the public
So robbery? If you want it, you'll take it
tiberious726··on I stumbled upon LLM Kryptonite –. no one wants to fix model-breaking bug
The author kept calling it a security problem. Maybe the "babble" contained information there user wasn't supposed to have access to? I didn't know how else to it would be a security problem, unless they mean in the vacuous denial of service sense

tiberious726··on Building a Futuristic Lisp Workstation
Other than the editors built in to the paid for lisps, nothing comes even close to emacs+sly/slime.

Lsps are am amazing improvement to the average IDE, but is barely of fraction of what common lisps introspection can do.

You're posting on HN, just disable this in group policy
tiberious726··on Modern Linux on the Desktop in 2023
No one else is even trying, of course all this functionality winds up under the systemd banner. Gods, I still remember having to explain to the old Windows dev team that Linux had no concept of a service back in the sysvinit days, just a process and bash script that might restart it if you wrote it correctly
tiberious726··on The California man who hid for 6 months in a secret room inside Circuit City
I included it it because in a lot of central American towns those are your only two seafood options. And yes, if its competition is long John silvers, then red lobster might as well be Zuma
tiberious726··on The California man who hid for 6 months in a secret room inside Circuit City
When its competition is tgi Fridays and long John silvers, red lobster starts looking rather fancy. These places not only exist, but are probably most of the towns in America. I've lived in a few
tiberious726··on Proxmox VE: Import Wizard for Migrating VMware ESXi VMs
Anyone try to replace vsphere with the high-availabilty add-on to RHEL?
tiberious726··on Symbolics Sunstone Development Plan (1987) [pdf]
And we never actually got the LMI K-Machine, which was planned to have some of the special hardware people think they all had
tiberious726··on Why Tolkien Hated Dune
Deontology is not empirical, there is no looking for effects in others lives. Deontology holds that certain things can be determined to be right or wrong from the sheer logic of action. See Kant's groundwork of the metaphysics of morals for an introduction.
tiberious726··on Why jalapeño peppers are less spicy (2023)
That's how they always prepared them down south. I promise the old ones were disgusting even blackened and dripping with bacon grease

Beauty is the last thing I care about when digging through settings panels trying to figure out how to disable the latest annoyance

There were also basically no applications for it when fedora decided to ship it
tiberious726··on The story of Signature Plastics
It's been a while, don't they call that the SP profile?
tiberious726··on A seafood firm wants to farm octopus. Activists say they're too smart for that
Yes, we are homo sapiens, sapience is fundamentally a human question. This is why we even care about it in the first place: it boils down to "are some animals human too?" That's why we care about it so much.

Hilariously, this is the result I get from Merriam-Webster: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/sapience did you even look?

tiberious726··on A seafood firm wants to farm octopus. Activists say they're too smart for that
The question the turning test was posed to solve is when does a sufficiently smart computer become sapient. What on earth is your "standard" definition of sapience?
tiberious726··on AI models just love escalating conflict to all-out nuclear war
But how long until some moron posts the nuclear launch codes on the war thunder forums and gpt-6 picks it up as training data?
tiberious726··on A seafood firm wants to farm octopus. Activists say they're too smart for that
Octopus' sapience is absolutely not beyond a reasonable doubt: many consider passing the turning test, or an even stronger form thereof to be required for sapience

"Philosophy and Animal Life" is a collection of essays from the recent hard-hitters in English speaking philosophy

It's Isaac Asimov's fault. I think he was just confused. Never assume malice when ignorance/incompetence will suffice and all
tiberious726··on A seafood firm wants to farm octopus. Activists say they're too smart for that
Technically, all animals are sentient, and many plants are too. Sentient means capable of responding to sensation. Sapient means what Issac Asimov incorrectly called sentient. I can't even tell what that first footnote is trying to prove: sentience is provable with much less than their criteria, and actual sapience requires much more (turing test if you're easy about it, turing test referring to a shared manipulatable world if you buy Davidson's arguments)

tiberious726··on Ask HN: Does airport fingerprinting compromise my biometric security?
What retina scanners do they use? I've been trying to get some to do 3FA on high security areas for years and can't find any that seem decent. (Note that iris scanning is completely different than retina scanning, and is just about as useless as face scanning.)
tiberious726··on Ask HN: Does airport fingerprinting compromise my biometric security?
This is simply untrue, and anyone who follows this advice will fail a NIST audit: https://csrc.nist.gov/glossary/term/multi_factor_authenticat....

All three factors have different security properties. The big downside of biometric factors is that they can't be replaced when compromised. You can't play language games and say "oh, I technically /have/ fingerprints" and pretend that changes their security properties.

Nimble is still shockingly solid

tiberious726··on Write your own retro compiler
This is great quality work---you'd crush it writing technical documentation or putting together technical internal corporate training programs.
