If any remediation was required, that's damage. This looks a lot smaller than the HuggingFace hack but it still required some cleanup.

Remediation mostly involved repairing pre-exising holes in the fences that the dog crawled through.

Since when isn’t that a cyber attack?

Because "attack" implies intent. Accidentally break a window? You might be on the hook to fix it, but you're not going to jail. Break the same window at 3am, while carrying a duffel bag and other burglary tools? Well that's (attempted) burglary, even if you chicken out and didn't steal anything.

Everybody wants alternatives to Cloudflare but nobody wants to build alternatives to Cloudflare.

I don't think anybody uses that mode.

It's all the same situation. https://mullenweg.wtf/

Ouch. Having a website dedicated to one's meltdown is nobody's idea of fame

This is a tier above the best Mac Studio and two tiers above the Spark.

It is more powerful than Apple.

I wonder why Apple has not really pushed their memory bandwidth numbers. They're starting to catch up to 2020 at this point -- cool, but still struggling to run years-old models. (FLOPS is even further behind by a year or two)

Maybe they're waiting on HBM? Given that they're skipping M6 Max to go straight for M7, I'd assume they're doing a redesign for it.


GDDR has higher latency and much lower capacity. HBM requires an interposer and also has lower capacity. It's not an easy choice. The M7 family will probably double memory bandwidth using LPDDR6.

So the MacBooks might get roughly the M5 Ultra's bandwidth in a couple years. Not bad -- my M4 Max is currently stuck in 2016

They're [Max-Q] blower cards and there's a big gap between them so the cooling looks fine.

So the two variants they offer is the Max-Q and the Server edition one, but only explicitly mentioned for one?

Edit: The Max-Q is one of the options, what's the other option then?


Seeing as it adds a second PSU, I'm guessing the workstation one.

That's bananas, unless they also water cool them, would easily overheat if it's just two bog standard workstation cards on top of each other.

Are they possibly selling setups they haven't actually tested practically in the real world?


Two RTX 6000 have more FLOPS and more memory bandwidth than a M5 Ultra (but they also cost more).

It's no different than promises to increase welfare or cut taxes that politicians routinely make.

Yes it is different: he conditioned it on voting for him. And he is not claiming to improve any governmental system to finance this, like other politicians do when they promise welfare or tax cuts: he is saying the money is there, he is the only one who can use it, and whether you get it or not depends on giving him your vote.

It would probably make more difference if it was paid in advance :)

Actually people would have to be an idiot to settle for anything less from Trump.

When you think about it, if Trump genuinely trusted the average American, he would pay in advance.

OTOH, Americans will be able to see if they can trust Trump by whether or not he pays in advance no matter what.

Whoever's paying attention.


This is much different than that. It's basically a direct bribe.

Or pay off student loan debt, it's all crooked, both sides.

"Both sides" is such an absurd claim these days.

It's like saying that a murderer and a jaywalker are both criminals, so they're basically the same.


Exactly. And by doing so, we slowly allow jaywalkers to become murderers but still viewed as "oh, it's just another person jaywalking again".

Lol I see you've never met a stallman type (ie your average hn disposition)

You’re right, the “both sides” claim really doesn’t work here.

Biden’s student loan forgiveness would have amounted to a gift of potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars to his most ardent supporters: young, college educated, poor people.

Trump’s proposal is a fraction of that, and all Americans would be eligible. If he’s trying to buy votes, he’s going to need to try a lot harder. This proposal is nothing like Biden’s vote buying scheme.


Funny that you wake up and rise only now. Where was you righteous indignation when Republicans promises tax cuts? Can you point me to your contemporary reaction to "no tax on tips"? What made you react only now?

Have you missed where Trump himself and many of the wealthiest people in the U.S. have had integer multiples of their wealth over just the past couple of years?

> young, college educated, poor people

Oh yea, you're correct, who needs those? Let's feed the 0.01%.


Please beware the false moral equivalence. Both sides is a position which advantages the incumbency.

What is your intent, beyond cynicism?


Biden promised $2000 and paid out $1400, still owes us $600 each.

There probably can't be. I assume they don't even look at the license when they crawl.
