Since March 2020 I have worked from home. When COVID-19 exploded the University sent everyone who could work remotely, home. Many of us in IT have stayed at home. The Univeristy has wanted to bring us back for some time, but a lack of space to house us prevented that. A building is being renovated to house IT, but it won't be ready for another year. I thought I would be home until then, at least.

The reason this happens is because the ASAR code uses another binary format/encoder ("Pickle") in a stupid way.

Yes — I would rate a kernel-side CFIL/SOFLOW state-retention bug as a strong working hypothesis now, but I would call it a flow-state leak / reclamation imbalance rather than a proven memory leak.

I just finished Rodrigo Nunes's book Neither Vertical Nor Horizontal. It's the most useful piece of political writing I've read this year.

The sign-memory law is an event-time statement about the ordering and fragmentation of hidden orders.

"Hearing voices" happens to *almost everyone* at least a few times in their life, but people are often scared to admit they had a harmless, benign voice-hearing experience, or they even deny to themselves that it counted, because the phenomenon is associated with being extremely crazy and dangerous. For example: have you ever *sworn* that you heard someone call your name, but no-one did? You can p
Participants in Pittsburgh may never learn the results of their cognitive tests – and funding cuts that target ‘DEI’ have the potential to delay vital diagnoses Roderick Blair was surprised when scientific researchers appeared on his doorstep in the Homewood neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

I have some articles on data import I don't feel like completing, so I may release another little tool instead. Just demotivated and giving away ANOTHER few months of accumulated work for free is...tricky. In essence, how current data import works SUCKS, and it really doesn't have to. From OCR, spreadsheets, Word docs, etc.,there is an approach which gives universality and adaptation *pretty easil
One distinction is essential: training is not inference. During training , a model learns its parameters from enormous datasets through repeated computation across many accelerators. This is where most upfront demand for compute, energy, and training data arises. It is also where many questions about how content was acquired belong. During inference , an already-trained model applies those paramet
"There are two kinds of fools. One says, ‘This is old, and therefore good.’ And one says, ‘This is new, and therefore better.’” John Brunner, The Shockwave Rider Neither familiarity nor novelty tells us whether an LLM is useful, harmful, intelligent, or trivial. “Merely autocomplete” understates what scaled prediction can do. But calling it a “machine god” or an “incarnation of evil” does not expl
Technology never arrives alone. It brings economics and politics with it, usually carrying most of the luggage. For much of the US race, capital rewarded ever larger, general-purpose models. Capability could justify investment, create platform dependence, and form an economic moat. I also see a political climate that increasingly rewards black-and-white positions: acceleration or obstruction, opti
With the US midterm election about six weeks away, President Donald Trump's approval rating is near record lows. Voters now trust Democrats more than Republicans on a laundry list of issues: to handle the economy, health care, immigration, the deficit, cost of living and foreign wars, according to a fresh New York Times/Siena poll. "Inflation is still high, consumers are feeling it" and come polli
By these standards, training is currently the part of AI I find most open to criticism. Not because training necessarily consumes most electricity over a model’s entire life. At massive scale, inference can consume more. My concern is that training decisions trigger the race for larger clusters, more power, more cooling, more chips, and more data before we know what the next increase in scale will
Then there is duplication. Competing labs acquire similar data, run similar experiments, and spend vast resources training overlapping general-purpose models behind closed walls. Some duplication is valuable: competition, replication, and alternative approaches matter. At this scale, however, secrecy and the race for a temporary lead mean that failures, dead ends, and discoveries are repeatedly pa
Now to inference: using a model after it has been trained. I want to separate the technology from its application, because the discussion is already carrying enough luggage. Technically, two delivery modes matter to me. With AI as a service , a provider operates the model and sells access. This offers convenience, rapid updates, elastic capacity, and often the strongest available capabilities. It
I see enormous optimization potential in both approaches: smaller specialized models, distillation, quantization, caching, batching, routing, better harnesses, and better hardware. I think improvements of two or more orders of magnitude are possible across the inference stack. One analysis projects up to 100× lower cost per token over time; a peer-reviewed energy study identifies 8–20× in foreseea

Hey @royalsociety.org, the Tesla owner is an FRS and you seem happy with his racism. Is that why you were silent with his DOGE cuts to USAID? Because the millions dead (14m by 2030) are mostly black?

A hearing this week. Pepper and I see these elaborately-equipped Waymoes plying the streets more often than we'd think likely.

While reading the # OpenBSD documentation, I noticed something striking: the project’s storage guidance does not present # Btrfs , # ZFS , # XFS , or newer copy-on-write filesystems as supported operating environments. The FAQ’s section on foreign filesystems does not try to maintain a long compatibility matrix. Instead, it tells users to consult mount(8) and search the manual pages for mount-rela
For a security-oriented operating system with a comparatively small developer community, adopting one of these filesystems is a commitment, not a checkbox.

One way to visualize why organizations must view IT systems as business assets, must own all the risks including security, and must shift security integration left is to take a long view over the asset's lifetime.

A few years back, I went to a webinar about making a "local lulav". The idea was to reduce the carbon costs of sukkot by using local plants instead of getting them from overseas (possibly via airfreight). So how can you do that while retaining all the many layers of meaning attached to the original, overplayed by successive commentators over thousands of years, while staying sustainable when one o
Security/privacy bullshit: I have Delta Dental insurance, mostly because that's the only option available to me. And it's decent (for the US). I haven't logged into their site in years. I logged in now. These things happened: When I put in my username & password it said I had to set up 2FA. OK, fine.

Earlier this year we had to switch from # Nest Smoke/CO detectors to # FirstAlert Smoke/CO detectors because the nest smoke detectors I come into the end of their useful life and Nest doesn't make them anymore. The new-this-year # FirstAlert Smoke/CO detector in my office keeps falling off line and missing its automatic check-in. (It's not on our end, I have pinged the smoke detector a minute os s
I recently switched my mobile plan to https://www. cape.co/ , a privacy focused MVNO with some interesting features like IMSI (subscriber identifier) rotation. I also wanted "unlimited" data (presumably subject to the usual cell traffic shaping) and was ready to move on from Fi, so I made the switch. Now, the self-serving part.

Recent reports show AI adoption rising in labor markets, with effects varying by sector and region. The New York Fed said more than 60% of service firms and about half of manufacturers in its New York and Northern New Jersey surveys now use AI, up from 40% and 26%, respectively, in 2025; the same survey found layoffs remained uncommon, some firms reduced hiring, others added workers to use AI, and
