definitely not for me. Think I had a dozen tutorial examples open for simply configuring nginx to server matrix chat to the web, ended up in crazy nginx docs, things not working properly.
Copy and pasting got things to work eventually - but my next matrix install had a similar loop where I learned about some gotchas and 'dont do this thing!' stuff with nginx.
I tried caddy instead at some point which seemed like a nicer / easier to read and do type of thing.. but then compatibility issues with Debian + Matrix + Caddy just became another time sink.
apache things would of been easier for me if the matrix tutorials including it.
then some nginx updates and other things - I would not call it easier to configure.
definitely some nice things in there though - loved seeing the power of how it can work and it makes sense. It may be worth it, but not easier I feel.
This is a very touchy topic. People have strong stances on each side.
I'm on the side of not letting people suffer and rot in a cell. Either we help them be functional adults who can contribute to society and course correct, or give a humane painless death once their crime is proven beyond doubt and that crime is deserving of a death penalty.
Letting people rot in a cell for life, sounds inhumane to me.
This should also be something a prisoner should be able to decide for their life. Not some politician to garner some more votes for their election.
Teachers' unions in the United States are dedicated to two things:
- increasing pay and benefits for teachers to the maximum possible
- reducing accountability for poor teaching to the minimum possible
Since many people foolishly believe that supporting teachers' unions is good for children, the results are predictable: very expensive schools that do a bad job.
Claude seems to be fairly good at bruteforcing/testing/etc on it's own, it solved a fairly intricate thing while I was busy on other things.
I've adapted a crypto-lib for TLS connections and had a mistake during negotation that truncated some algo-selection value, worked up until the other party started trialling post-quantum algorthims that apparently had algo-id's that collided with the truncated values I was using.
Claude figured out that from the code and trialling TLS handshakes.
Besides, since there was a bounty on finding the curve it seems unlikely that someone would've found out and not shared that? (unless working at a security service that figured out that it was possible to attack?)
I wonder if Claude does the brute-forcing directly. I think what's more likely is that Claude is synthesising programs that brute-force, albeit with interesting heuristics.
If they thought it to be backdoor, why not sell for some other believer who pays more than the bounty? But anyway, not everyone is after money and fame.

That's an argument that must be infuriating to all researchers who ever published a paper on that topic, because most likely Claude was trained with all of them.

When do we call it the right time to stop with the pitchforks, torches and selfish tendencies and accept that many papers published were used to help train a tool that brings discoveries to light for the entirety of humanity to benefit?
About the same time we accept that capitalism is the best economic system possible and that banks and the stock market create value for the common man.

Sorry what? Nice deflection but knowledge for the greater good of everyone and selfish corporate greed are not in the same camps of end results, the latter being in the same category of the original reply of individuals being selfish for their discoveries.
Unlocking knowledge is just a matter of time and effort, someone will do it. Why does it matter who when we have new technologies that allows enabling everyone in advancing human knowledge?
