Chinese government super computer (allegedly) compromised and (allegedly) 10PB exfiltrated. The source is CNN. Something about this story is very strange to me. I've been doing cybersecurity stuff for a long, long time. I'm usually on top of most cybersecurity incidents, whether I discuss it publicly or not, yet I have not heard of this story and I have not seen the moniker "FlamingChina" before. Furthermore, none of my colleagues have mentioned this compromise to me. I'm very curious who these cybersecurity experts are who they cite in the article. I'm also very curious on the 10 PETABYTES of data exfiltrated because they is an unfathomable number. 10PB is 10,000 TB. Even in cold storage that's roughly $43,000/month. If it's "hot storage" you're looking at something like, $150,000/month, that doesn't even include the fees for moving the data which would be ASTRONOMICAL. Very very strange

BREAKING: Hackers have stolen 10 petabytes of data from China’s largest state-run supercomputing facility in Tianjin The hackers were inside the system for months & stole: - Missile and bomb schematics - Aerospace and aviation research - Bioinformatics & fusion simulation data

High time to kick the US 🇺🇸 out of NATO.

🇯🇵 An African lady says we should stop saying positive things about Japan because Japan has "women only trains". Yes, we have women only trains. We noticed a problem and did something. You don't have electricity let alone trains so perhaps you should shut up.

Glasswing is a bad precedent with the best of intentions. 1. Anthropic is actually concerned about safety. 2. Glasswing is oligarchy. We’ve been living in a really great period where everyone gets to use the best models on the planet. We are now entering a new era where we start to treat these models as too powerful for common folk. If your business isn’t a billion dollar multi corp then you really aren’t important enough to have access. I do think anthropic is doing things in accordance with their concerns, their mission, and their beliefs - I just disagree that the result is what they want. What anyone wants. Centralized planning doesn’t work. Software isn’t just made by mega corps, but my millions of people around the world. I make software, but I’m not big enough to qualify for Glasswing, so, I’m just supposed to get pwned? Honestly…Elon was right. You have to distribute ASI. It will be messy and painful but it’s the only way to get to a better place where we aren’t living in a defacto oligarchy.

it’s hole filling season

White people have you ever looked at your white counterparts and said to yourself they’re a different level of white that you don’t identify with?
