On: Higher usage limits for Claude and a compute deal with SpaceX

In space you get bit flips fairly quickly when using very small transistors. You would have to run stuff on fairly old hardware, which probably makes the whole thing economically inefficient for serious "computation in space".

Looks like Cloudflare has the only user friendly captcha of them all.

Ironically that site has a paid AI option.

Some laptops do become unusable once they start thermal throttling. I have an Matebook X Pro (2020, the one with i7) which throttles to the point where I can't even properly write code in VSC anymore (I do only light web apps).

On: ChatGPT Images 2.0

On: Ransomware Is Growing Three Times Faster Than the Spending Meant to Stop It

[super256]

Don't worry, ransomware already existed before BTC. The ransomware demanded Ukash and Paysafecard instead.

[wstrange → super256]

That seems disingenuous. Crypto made ransomware much easier.

>It isn't a product-led acquisition, but more a talent one.

I am pretty sure OAI mostly cares about their virtualization IP for MacOS. They already extensively use WSL2 for sandboxing Codex on Windows, and I imagine they want something similar for Codex on Mac.
