Welcome to Unsupervised Learning, a security, 0:00:43.400 --> 0:00:46.100 AI and meaning focused podcast that looks at how best 0:00:46.100 --> 0:00:49.490 to thrive as humans in a post AI world. It 0:00:49.490 --> 0:00:53.479 combines original ideas, analysis and mental models to bring not 0:00:53.479 --> 0:00:56.690 just the news, but why it matters and how to respond. 0:01:01.450 --> 0:01:05.290 All right. Welcome to unsupervised learning. This is Daniel Miessler. Okay. 0:01:05.290 --> 0:01:08.440 What do we have here? All right. This is, uh, 0:01:08.440 --> 0:01:11.080 when sysop makes you release a patch for your end 0:01:11.080 --> 0:01:14.619 of life product. Because the vulnerability is so bad, I have. 0:01:14.620 --> 0:01:19.959 Abandoned my child. Say it. I abandoned my child. Say 0:01:19.959 --> 0:01:23.890 it louder. Say it louder! I've abandoned my child. I've 0:01:23.890 --> 0:01:27.580 abandoned my child. I've abandoned my boy. 0:01:28.330 --> 0:01:28.990 That's so. 0:01:28.990 --> 0:01:33.880 Good. Okay, uh, fabric is now supporting OpenAI's new model 0:01:33.910 --> 0:01:37.570 oh one preview. So you basically just pass it the 0:01:37.780 --> 0:01:41.440 switch R flag, which it sends the request using user 0:01:41.440 --> 0:01:44.800 rather than system, because, oh one preview is not allowing 0:01:44.800 --> 0:01:47.590 system access, so you only have to send it in. 0:01:47.590 --> 0:01:51.190 User results aren't that much different honestly. And you also 0:01:51.190 --> 0:01:54.160 can't send the temperature parameter which we were doing before. 0:01:54.160 --> 0:01:58.430 So this raw option allows you to use zero one 0:01:58.460 --> 0:02:01.700 preview with fabric and that works great. Got an insane 0:02:01.700 --> 0:02:06.260 cookbook use case 401 preview. So this person actually used 0:02:06.260 --> 0:02:08.720 it to. I'm going to open this up to actually 0:02:08.720 --> 0:02:13.369 create synthetic data and then validate whether the data was 0:02:13.400 --> 0:02:17.540 accurate or not. Really really cool. Really really cool stuff. 0:02:17.720 --> 0:02:19.220 And just one of the things that you could do 0:02:19.250 --> 0:02:21.859 for zero one preview that you can't actually do with 0:02:21.889 --> 0:02:26.180 other models. Okay. So let's see here. Back to kickboxing. 0:02:26.210 --> 0:02:29.450 I'll be kickboxing today so hopefully it won't be dead 0:02:29.480 --> 0:02:33.709 later tonight. I got a connect on LinkedIn button here 0:02:33.710 --> 0:02:36.110 in the newsletter. So if you want to go and 0:02:36.110 --> 0:02:40.820 connect there if you connect with me I will mutual connect. Okay. 0:02:40.970 --> 0:02:45.860 Last week's comments on current AI advances. So last podcast, 0:02:45.889 --> 0:02:47.570 if you're listening to this one, you might have already 0:02:47.570 --> 0:02:49.490 listened to that one, but I did a real deep 0:02:49.490 --> 0:02:51.650 dive on like the current state of like the path 0:02:51.650 --> 0:02:55.040 to AGI. I talked about the oh one preview. 0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:55.660 Um. 0:02:55.690 --> 0:02:58.270 And I just did a whole bunch of analysis, but 0:02:58.270 --> 0:03:00.010 you should check that out if you didn't listen to 0:03:00.040 --> 0:03:02.770 that one. And I wrote a new essay called the 0:03:02.770 --> 0:03:05.920 Art Quality Tier List. Pull this one up. And this 0:03:05.919 --> 0:03:09.340 is basically a way of rating art. And keep in 0:03:09.340 --> 0:03:11.530 mind this is for if you're a beginner, if you're 0:03:11.530 --> 0:03:14.470 already like an advanced art person, you already know art 0:03:14.470 --> 0:03:18.430 back and forward, then like you need to teach me stuff. 0:03:18.430 --> 0:03:21.310 I'm not teaching you anything. This is for someone who 0:03:21.310 --> 0:03:24.820 is thoughtful but is not an art expert. Even though 0:03:24.820 --> 0:03:28.149 I did take an art history class in college. But anyway, 0:03:28.150 --> 0:03:31.809 I don't really remember any of it, and I've basically 0:03:31.810 --> 0:03:34.690 just not understood what art was for the longest time. 0:03:34.690 --> 0:03:37.690 And I finally came up with a definition which I 0:03:37.690 --> 0:03:41.440 think is pretty decent. It is indirect expression of something 0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:45.940 that matters to humans. And I basically got a hierarchy 0:03:45.970 --> 0:03:48.670 here of like the different ways you could look at it. 0:03:48.670 --> 0:03:51.910 So going from not art to like proto art to 0:03:51.940 --> 0:03:55.100 like hollow art, which is kind of like a IoT, 0:03:55.130 --> 0:03:59.510 is one example where it might actually look pretty cool, 0:03:59.510 --> 0:04:02.300 or it might actually make you feel a certain way, 0:04:02.300 --> 0:04:05.630 but the artist didn't feel anything. And there was a 0:04:05.630 --> 0:04:08.510 little bit of a caveat here. If the artist feels something, 0:04:08.510 --> 0:04:11.240 but they're using AI to try to make the art, 0:04:11.300 --> 0:04:13.580 bring it out. So there's a little bit of a 0:04:13.610 --> 0:04:17.120 caveat there. And then decent art is where the artist 0:04:17.120 --> 0:04:21.349 feels it and the audience feels it. Great art is like, yeah, 0:04:21.380 --> 0:04:25.100 and people like it. And then S-tier or Brilliant is like, 0:04:25.130 --> 0:04:29.839 it's recognized as like a world talent or world class 0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:33.650 art and that's, that's basically it. So six different levels. 0:04:33.650 --> 0:04:38.330 And I even have a methodology for enjoying art. And 0:04:38.330 --> 0:04:44.299 this might be especially useful, especially useful for beginners. So 0:04:44.300 --> 0:04:47.750 start by feeling the piece. No thinking no analyzing. Just 0:04:47.750 --> 0:04:50.390 take it in and experience how it makes you feel. 0:04:50.420 --> 0:04:53.620 Do that for a number of, you know, seconds or minutes, 0:04:53.620 --> 0:04:55.419 however long you want to take. Now that you have 0:04:55.420 --> 0:04:57.820 a sense of how it affected you, analyze the message 0:04:57.820 --> 0:04:59.830 you believe is trying to convey. Then, once you have 0:04:59.830 --> 0:05:02.980 the message, think about how it was transmitted to you. Like, 0:05:03.010 --> 0:05:05.680 was it a song or was it paint or whatever 0:05:05.680 --> 0:05:08.620 it was? And this one's really important. If you're with 0:05:08.620 --> 0:05:11.770 a friend, do this in silence. Do one through three 0:05:11.770 --> 0:05:14.050 in silence for however long you want to spend on 0:05:14.050 --> 0:05:17.710 it for each piece, and then discuss your results with them. 0:05:17.710 --> 0:05:20.169 It's a really fun way to do this, you know, 0:05:20.200 --> 0:05:22.570 get a glass of wine or whatever it is. The 0:05:22.570 --> 0:05:24.580 first time I ended up doing this, I was doing 0:05:24.580 --> 0:05:29.169 it with my partner and with my friend Sasha, and 0:05:29.170 --> 0:05:31.270 we were doing this, I think it was the the 0:05:31.270 --> 0:05:34.330 Big Art Museum in New York, and we had lots 0:05:34.330 --> 0:05:37.510 of fun, like we all felt like novices, but we 0:05:37.510 --> 0:05:39.880 did something like this methodology and it made it a 0:05:39.880 --> 0:05:43.480 lot of fun. Okay, so that is that newsletter just 0:05:43.480 --> 0:05:46.479 went out, by the way, and security. So US is 0:05:46.480 --> 0:05:52.190 evidently super reliant on Chinese cranes. This is freaking me out. 0:05:52.220 --> 0:05:58.640 Particularly from this one company. Zpmc. And this report says 80% 0:05:58.640 --> 0:06:02.299 of US ship to shore cranes are owned by this 0:06:02.300 --> 0:06:04.220 Chinese company. I thought it was going to be like 0:06:04.220 --> 0:06:07.789 25 or 50%. But yeah, I hope someone is actually 0:06:07.790 --> 0:06:10.070 tracking this stuff in a war room somewhere. And I'm 0:06:10.070 --> 0:06:14.390 pretty sure they are doing doing war room exercises. Fortinet 0:06:14.390 --> 0:06:17.270 has confirmed a data breach after someone called. I'm not 0:06:17.270 --> 0:06:19.550 going to say that word. Something naughty claimed to have 0:06:19.550 --> 0:06:23.510 stolen 440 gigs off of their SharePoint server, and they're 0:06:23.510 --> 0:06:26.900 talking about third party risk as being the problem. GitLab 0:06:26.900 --> 0:06:31.339 release critical updates to fix multiple vulnerabilities. Got 9.9 on 0:06:31.339 --> 0:06:36.320 the Richter scale here. Enable remote exploitation with minimal user 0:06:36.320 --> 0:06:40.640 interaction and low privileges. Lazarus Group, which is North Korea, 0:06:40.670 --> 0:06:44.990 been targeting Python developers with a piece of malware disguised 0:06:44.990 --> 0:06:47.570 as coding tests. They've been doing this for about a 0:06:47.570 --> 0:06:51.670 year now, thanks to material for sponsoring, Mastercard is buying 0:06:51.670 --> 0:06:57.549 Recorded Future from Insight Partners for $2.65 billion, and they 0:06:57.550 --> 0:07:02.830 bought it for 780 million. So nice ROI on that one. 0:07:02.830 --> 0:07:06.760 And what I noticed here is like this motion from okay, 0:07:06.760 --> 0:07:09.880 it's a startup that does this piece of functionality. Now 0:07:09.880 --> 0:07:12.250 we're going to bring it into a platform. In this 0:07:12.250 --> 0:07:14.620 case the platform is like Mastercard. So you have good 0:07:14.620 --> 0:07:18.040 ideas and execution. And their natural home is within some 0:07:18.070 --> 0:07:20.260 sort of ecosystem. And I think this is a good 0:07:20.260 --> 0:07:23.350 way to think of startups. It's like a petri dish 0:07:23.350 --> 0:07:26.620 for features that will live inside of something bigger, a 0:07:26.620 --> 0:07:32.350 bigger platform, bigger ecosystem or a framework. Security. Canary Maturity 0:07:32.350 --> 0:07:35.110 Model is a framework designed to help organizations assess and 0:07:35.110 --> 0:07:38.710 improve their security posture by using Canary tokens. I love 0:07:38.710 --> 0:07:41.530 this concept of detection maturity model. I was just talking 0:07:41.560 --> 0:07:45.310 to dropzone about this actually. So here's like a percentage 0:07:45.310 --> 0:07:48.290 of your most likely minor behaviors that you're likely to 0:07:48.320 --> 0:07:50.510 see based on who you are. And you know what 0:07:50.510 --> 0:07:53.330 percentage of these can you detect. And thanks to Defend 0:07:53.330 --> 0:07:57.140 defy for sponsoring as well. Australia is set to criminalise 0:07:57.140 --> 0:08:00.890 doxxing with penalties up to seven years in jail as 0:08:00.890 --> 0:08:05.030 part of a new legislation aimed at modernizing the Privacy Act, 0:08:05.060 --> 0:08:09.680 criminalizing doxxing. Seven years in jail. I like it. I 0:08:09.680 --> 0:08:12.620 like it. I think, yeah, it does really come down 0:08:12.620 --> 0:08:16.070 to there are times that this happens accidentally. In fact, 0:08:16.070 --> 0:08:18.800 last week I was worried I accidentally did it, which 0:08:18.800 --> 0:08:21.380 I could have just rerecorded, but I caught it and 0:08:21.380 --> 0:08:23.870 realised it wasn't doxxing so I didn't have to rerecord. 0:08:23.870 --> 0:08:26.660 But the point is, hopefully they're doing it for purely 0:08:26.660 --> 0:08:29.960 malicious people, which I'm sure they are. This piece discusses 0:08:29.960 --> 0:08:34.219 how AI powered autonomous weapons are changing warfare. So a 0:08:34.250 --> 0:08:37.699 bunch of Abrams tanks had to pull back after being 0:08:37.730 --> 0:08:42.980 targeted by kamikaze drones run by the Russians. Yeah, definitely. 0:08:42.980 --> 0:08:46.720 Go read kill decision by Daniel Suarez. This is the book. 0:08:46.750 --> 0:08:50.650 It is extraordinary. What? Did I read this? I read 0:08:50.650 --> 0:08:55.329 it in 2016. Yeah, really, really good. Russia's naval activity 0:08:55.330 --> 0:08:59.530 around undersea cables is freaking people out in the US. 0:08:59.770 --> 0:09:04.240 They're worried that they're going to sabotage underwater infrastructure through 0:09:04.240 --> 0:09:09.550 a unit called Goochie. Goochie goochie something. So this unit 0:09:09.580 --> 0:09:14.439 operates submarines, surface vessels and naval drones and has been 0:09:14.440 --> 0:09:18.910 spotted near critical deep sea cables. And these carry 95% 0:09:18.910 --> 0:09:22.929 of international data. US is drafting a New York joint 0:09:22.960 --> 0:09:29.380 statement to bolster security of submarine communication cables. Focus on 0:09:29.380 --> 0:09:33.310 excluding Chinese firms from the supply chain. Yeah, I think 0:09:33.309 --> 0:09:37.750 we need comprehensive critical infrastructure dependency analysis. And like I 0:09:37.750 --> 0:09:40.000 said before, I'm pretty sure this is already happening. I 0:09:40.000 --> 0:09:43.020 just hope we're using really good red teamers to emulate 0:09:43.020 --> 0:09:47.250 the capabilities of these adversaries. US House has voted to 0:09:47.250 --> 0:09:51.120 block the purchase of new drones from DJI. So much 0:09:51.120 --> 0:09:54.660 coverage of Counter China stuff lately seems like leadership is 0:09:54.660 --> 0:09:57.420 getting the message here, which is great. State Department has 0:09:57.420 --> 0:10:01.620 declared that Russia's state owned RT news has become a 0:10:01.620 --> 0:10:05.309 key player in the Kremlin's military intelligence operations. I mean, 0:10:05.340 --> 0:10:08.040 I remember a friend of mine talking about how awesome 0:10:08.040 --> 0:10:10.199 art he was because he was hearing stories he'd never 0:10:10.200 --> 0:10:13.200 heard anywhere before. And he's like, yeah, you know, the 0:10:13.200 --> 0:10:16.260 US has really messed up. And I'm finding out how 0:10:16.290 --> 0:10:19.020 messed up the US is from this channel. And I'm like, okay, 0:10:19.020 --> 0:10:22.020 what's the channel? And it's RT and I'm like, dude, 0:10:22.020 --> 0:10:25.830 you realize this is like, this is just a Russian 0:10:25.830 --> 0:10:29.880 state media, media, right? This is like this is pretty 0:10:29.880 --> 0:10:32.640 close to propaganda. And he started watching more and he's like, 0:10:32.640 --> 0:10:35.640 oh yeah, it was absolutely. But he didn't know he 0:10:35.640 --> 0:10:38.460 was being manipulated until it was called out to him. 0:10:38.460 --> 0:10:42.130 And this is like so long ago. This might have 0:10:42.130 --> 0:10:45.819 been like 2015 or something. All right, sir, he flash 0:10:45.820 --> 0:10:50.350 Biscan Kostov is a civilian radio enthusiast who has become 0:10:50.350 --> 0:10:53.949 a key figure in Ukraine's drone defence strategy against Russia, 0:10:53.980 --> 0:10:58.540 operating from a mobile intelligence centre in his Volkswagen van. 0:10:58.660 --> 0:11:02.470 He monitors Russian radio transmissions and shares his findings with 0:11:02.470 --> 0:11:08.230 over 127,000 followers, including soldiers and government officials. I'm not 0:11:08.230 --> 0:11:09.939 sure I'd be giving this guy a lot of press. 0:11:09.940 --> 0:11:13.450 It is basically putting a bounty on him. I and 0:11:13.450 --> 0:11:17.770 tech newspaper had humans, and I create novel research ideas, 0:11:17.770 --> 0:11:21.340 and then had human experts rate the ideas to see 0:11:21.340 --> 0:11:24.370 which ones they liked, and they actually liked the AI 0:11:24.400 --> 0:11:27.250 ideas better. And I think this is the way to 0:11:27.280 --> 0:11:31.449 measure the abilities of AI, not with like standalone benchmarks, 0:11:31.450 --> 0:11:34.150 but like what you do is you have AI results, 0:11:34.150 --> 0:11:37.569 you have human results, and then you have a rating system, 0:11:37.570 --> 0:11:40.739 which is humans later. We could use AI for that, 0:11:40.740 --> 0:11:43.920 but in the meantime, we have humans doing that. And 0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:47.370 then we essentially say, which ones did you like better? 0:11:47.370 --> 0:11:49.380 And they're blinded. Of course, they don't know which one 0:11:49.380 --> 0:11:52.949 is which. So when they pick the AI ones, that's 0:11:52.950 --> 0:11:58.199 a pretty good estimate. Estimation that the AI ones are better. 0:11:58.230 --> 0:11:59.940 And I think that's how we should do a whole 0:11:59.940 --> 0:12:01.650 bunch of these. Otherwise it's going to be a lot 0:12:01.679 --> 0:12:05.310 of bias. OpenAI releases their new zero one preview model 0:12:05.309 --> 0:12:09.780 focused on reasoning. We've talked a bunch about this one. Um, yeah. 0:12:09.809 --> 0:12:12.240 Got my thoughts on it so far in the podcast. 0:12:12.240 --> 0:12:14.489 And the big difference I just want to point this 0:12:14.490 --> 0:12:16.349 one out. That's why I kept the story in here. 0:12:16.350 --> 0:12:20.040 Big difference is that it uses chain of thought reasoning 0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:23.520 and the fact that it actually spends time and actually tokens, 0:12:23.520 --> 0:12:28.380 which means money thinking before responding, because before it would 0:12:28.380 --> 0:12:30.330 be tokens in and tokens out. And that was pretty 0:12:30.330 --> 0:12:34.559 much it. Klarna's CEO says that I could replace enterprise. 0:12:34.590 --> 0:12:39.520 Enterprise software giants like Salesforce and Workday claims that conversational AI, 0:12:39.550 --> 0:12:44.410 like OpenAI's strawberry, can handle natural language commands to build 0:12:44.410 --> 0:12:48.040 custom apps. 100%, this is what I've been saying Sbca 0:12:48.160 --> 0:12:51.790 that's going to happen. And yeah, this is my Fpca piece, 0:12:51.790 --> 0:12:55.660 and this is what I think future software looks like. 0:12:55.660 --> 0:12:58.240 You've got, uh, see, I can find the thing. There 0:12:58.240 --> 0:13:01.930 we go. State policy questions, action. I think that is 0:13:01.929 --> 0:13:05.380 the vibe. AI powered SAR satellites are now capable of 0:13:05.380 --> 0:13:09.069 detecting aircraft from space due to new radar tech, which 0:13:09.100 --> 0:13:12.189 enables real time monitoring of air traffic, good for both 0:13:12.190 --> 0:13:17.380 civilian and military uses. Cardio tech? That's a good name. 0:13:17.559 --> 0:13:22.720 Leveraging AI to tackle cardiovascular disease. Leading cause of death. 0:13:22.720 --> 0:13:27.550 Partnering with 65 hospitals to build a massive human heart tissue. 0:13:27.580 --> 0:13:34.300 Multi-omics dataset to identify new drug candidates. Super exciting because 0:13:34.300 --> 0:13:37.620 the AI I needs data to form its model of 0:13:37.620 --> 0:13:40.050 the world, and this is a whole bunch of that 0:13:40.050 --> 0:13:42.990 data to model it, because then you could figure out 0:13:42.990 --> 0:13:45.750 that's kind of the punchline here. You can figure out 0:13:45.750 --> 0:13:49.140 if drugs might work or that's the plan anyway. If 0:13:49.140 --> 0:13:52.110 you have a really good model of how the heart works, 0:13:52.110 --> 0:13:57.239 you can have drugs, potentially synthetic testing of drugs to 0:13:57.270 --> 0:13:59.969 see if they will work without doing trials or without 0:13:59.970 --> 0:14:03.780 doing as many trials, or for as long or as expensive. 0:14:03.780 --> 0:14:07.110 Salesforce just launched Agent Force, a suite of AI powered 0:14:07.110 --> 0:14:12.510 agents designed to enhance human workers across various business functions. Yeah, yeah, 0:14:12.540 --> 0:14:16.559 definitely designed to enhance human workers. Not designed at all 0:14:16.590 --> 0:14:20.580 to replace them. Yep, yep. Waymo's latest data shows that 0:14:20.610 --> 0:14:24.840 human drivers are responsible for most serious collisions involving its 0:14:24.840 --> 0:14:30.030 driverless cars. 16 out of 23 severe crashes being rear 0:14:30.060 --> 0:14:34.720 ended by human driven vehicles. Tesla's Cybertruck is spiking in 0:14:34.720 --> 0:14:39.850 the truck segment. Well, electric truck segment with 61% of 0:14:39.850 --> 0:14:45.790 sales surge in July, a surge of 61% in July. 0:14:45.820 --> 0:14:50.020 Did way better than the R1t's and the Ford F-150 lightning. 0:14:50.020 --> 0:14:52.210 I think we didn't. We just see a story saying 0:14:52.210 --> 0:14:54.790 the lightning was crushing it. I don't know why there's 0:14:54.790 --> 0:14:56.440 a big jump right now, but I have seen a 0:14:56.440 --> 0:15:01.420 whole bunch more very recently. Anecdotally, USPS has rolled out 0:15:01.420 --> 0:15:04.150 a new delivery vehicle. Let's see if we can get 0:15:04.150 --> 0:15:06.400 a picture of this thing, which I saw. Yeah, look 0:15:06.400 --> 0:15:09.430 at that. Looks like a duck. Looks like a duck, Bill, 0:15:09.460 --> 0:15:12.670 doesn't it? Yeah. Evidently the drivers love them. They're very, 0:15:12.670 --> 0:15:17.050 very practical, but they look very strange. Dmitri Greenberg has 0:15:17.050 --> 0:15:20.050 managed to run Linux and Ultrix on a business card, 0:15:20.080 --> 0:15:23.170 turning it into a tiny computer, eight kilobytes of Ram 0:15:23.170 --> 0:15:28.360 and 32kB of flash storage. New studies showing that debunk bot, 0:15:28.360 --> 0:15:33.990 an AI chatbot can effectively persuade users to abandon conspiracy theories. 0:15:33.990 --> 0:15:38.640 The bot made significant progress in changing people's beliefs, challenging 0:15:38.640 --> 0:15:43.170 the notion that facts and logic cannot combat conspiracies. I mean, 0:15:43.200 --> 0:15:45.150 this makes sense to me. So this is what I 0:15:45.150 --> 0:15:49.109 wrote you. You can convince. If you can convince somebody 0:15:49.110 --> 0:15:51.540 of something, you can convince them as well. This is 0:15:51.540 --> 0:15:55.530 why I'm optimistic about having AI on us all the time, 100%. 0:15:55.530 --> 0:15:58.050 It can be Orwellian, or it could be a defender 0:15:58.050 --> 0:16:01.800 or protector or tutor or coach, etc. that's always with us. 0:16:01.830 --> 0:16:05.220 Community college had to cancel its CS career fair because 0:16:05.220 --> 0:16:08.610 no companies reached out. Super sad, but super expected. If 0:16:08.610 --> 0:16:11.250 you have people coming out of college with four year 0:16:11.250 --> 0:16:14.520 degrees and master's in CS and they can't find jobs, 0:16:14.520 --> 0:16:18.990 what do you think? Do you think companies are rejecting right? 0:16:19.020 --> 0:16:21.360 The companies who would come to the job fair, they're 0:16:21.510 --> 0:16:24.479 rejecting the master's degree people, but they're going to go 0:16:24.480 --> 0:16:26.880 to community college? I don't think so. This is why 0:16:26.880 --> 0:16:30.920 we need human 3.0. Future is connecting directly to individuals 0:16:30.920 --> 0:16:35.000 not going through these credential forms. Google has officially killed 0:16:35.000 --> 0:16:37.940 off cache links, which is sad because that's how I 0:16:37.940 --> 0:16:40.370 used to see old versions of the site. And you 0:16:40.370 --> 0:16:43.310 can see the site even if it was down, like, whatever. 0:16:43.340 --> 0:16:47.840 United Airlines is partnering with SpaceX to bring free Starlink 0:16:47.840 --> 0:16:50.960 Wi-Fi to all of its planes. I'm a united person. 0:16:50.960 --> 0:16:53.960 I'm so happy that I'm a united person right now, man, 0:16:53.990 --> 0:16:57.410 because I fly JSX as well, and the Starlink is 0:16:57.410 --> 0:16:59.780 so good. It's better than a lot of my friends. 0:16:59.780 --> 0:17:03.020 Wi-Fi at their house. Ukraine just launched its biggest drone 0:17:03.020 --> 0:17:07.460 attack on Moscow yet, hitting the region with 144 drones. 0:17:07.460 --> 0:17:10.669 I still don't understand how Ukraine could possibly be winning 0:17:10.670 --> 0:17:13.760 this war. Completely insane to me, but in a good way. 0:17:13.790 --> 0:17:17.570 Sweden is increasing how much it's paying migrants to go home. 0:17:17.600 --> 0:17:22.310 It's now up to $34,000, roughly paying them to just leave. 0:17:22.340 --> 0:17:27.800 NASA's advanced composite solar sail successfully been deployed its ultra 0:17:27.800 --> 0:17:31.380 thin solar sail is now in low Earth orbit means 0:17:31.380 --> 0:17:34.140 it's visible in the night sky from various locations. It 0:17:34.140 --> 0:17:37.980 could be as bright as serious. Sirius is the brightest 0:17:37.980 --> 0:17:41.070 star out there. The dog star. It is very bright, 0:17:41.190 --> 0:17:43.740 so I can't wait to go find this thing and 0:17:43.740 --> 0:17:45.780 I wonder. I mean, it would be crazy to see 0:17:45.780 --> 0:17:48.720 something as bright as Sirius actually moving, so I can't 0:17:48.720 --> 0:17:53.160 wait to see this thing. Got a comet? They're calling 0:17:53.160 --> 0:17:56.910 it the comet of the century. I feel like these astronomer, uh, 0:17:56.910 --> 0:18:00.480 journalists are always saying it's the brightest. You will not 0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:04.860 see another solar eclipse for 900 years or whatever. And 0:18:04.859 --> 0:18:08.880 then it turns out, well, not one that comes directly here. 0:18:08.880 --> 0:18:11.760 Not one that falls on a Friday. Not one that 0:18:11.760 --> 0:18:14.640 you could see while standing upside down or whatever. And 0:18:14.640 --> 0:18:16.470 then you look and you're like, okay, when is the 0:18:16.470 --> 0:18:20.520 actual next eclipse? Oh, nine months from now or whatever. Anyway, 0:18:20.520 --> 0:18:21.810 this is going to be a cool one. It's going 0:18:21.840 --> 0:18:25.050 to be bright. So I'm going to try to remember 0:18:25.050 --> 0:18:27.050 these times. I'm sure they'll say more about it at 0:18:27.050 --> 0:18:29.359 the time so I can go take a look. US 0:18:29.390 --> 0:18:33.230 is closing a trade loophole that e-commerce people like Temu 0:18:33.230 --> 0:18:38.510 and Shine. Shine, shine have been exploiting. Loophole allows them 0:18:38.510 --> 0:18:42.530 to ship goods directly to customers without paying tariffs. So 0:18:42.530 --> 0:18:44.630 the US government is going after that. There's a leaked 0:18:44.660 --> 0:18:48.619 PDF that details Mr. Beast's unique company culture, and it 0:18:48.619 --> 0:18:51.290 got a one page summary of it here. Pretty, pretty 0:18:51.320 --> 0:18:54.830 smart business stuff. Although he is, I think being investigated 0:18:54.830 --> 0:18:58.850 for some some stuff. See here. Uh, person says sunlight 0:18:58.880 --> 0:19:01.850 cured their migraines. It's not a study. It's really just 0:19:01.850 --> 0:19:04.880 somebody talking about it. But I figure most people who 0:19:04.880 --> 0:19:07.850 have migraines have tried everything else, so why not try this? 0:19:07.880 --> 0:19:10.669 It's basically sunlight getting lots of sunlight, I think in 0:19:10.670 --> 0:19:14.900 the morning. Love this concept from Laura Hogan. Be a thermostat, 0:19:14.930 --> 0:19:18.410 not a thermometer. That's that's cool. I mean, it's cool 0:19:18.410 --> 0:19:21.050 if you don't even read the article. Be a thermostat, 0:19:21.050 --> 0:19:24.750 not a thermometer. Content driven development is a strategy for 0:19:24.780 --> 0:19:28.500 making progress on side projects by focusing on small, shareable 0:19:28.500 --> 0:19:30.869 pieces of work. So you finish a thing you share, 0:19:30.869 --> 0:19:33.870 you finish a thing you share. In 1913, Vienna was 0:19:33.869 --> 0:19:38.490 quite a place to hang out. Hitler, Leon, Trotsky, Tito, 0:19:38.490 --> 0:19:43.290 Sigmund Freud, Joseph Stalin all hanging out in the same city. 0:19:43.290 --> 0:19:46.560 And by the way, this is before Hitler. And I 0:19:46.590 --> 0:19:49.740 guess Stalin turned evil. And whoever else in that list 0:19:49.740 --> 0:19:53.220 was evil. Not sure how evil Trotsky was, because that's 0:19:53.220 --> 0:19:57.149 how poorly read I am about Russian history. Discovery merkel 0:19:57.150 --> 0:20:00.180 map CLI command line tool lets you search and enumerate 0:20:00.180 --> 0:20:07.740 subdomains using the merkel Map API. Okay, 71TB, ZFS, NAS 0:20:07.770 --> 0:20:12.570 24 four terabyte drives. It has lasted without a single 0:20:12.570 --> 0:20:16.350 drive failure for over a decade, thanks to a strategy 0:20:16.350 --> 0:20:19.230 of keeping the server off when not in use. Cheating? 0:20:19.230 --> 0:20:22.969 I feel like it's cheating. Doctor Mordechai Guri She has 0:20:22.970 --> 0:20:26.990 unveiled a new side channel attack called Rambo, which uses 0:20:26.990 --> 0:20:31.850 radio signals from a device's Ram to exfiltrate data over 0:20:31.880 --> 0:20:35.720 Airgapped networks. I was like, I know this is Israeli. 0:20:35.720 --> 0:20:38.840 I know for sure, I guess Tel Aviv, but it 0:20:38.840 --> 0:20:43.610 was actually a different Israeli university. But yes, it was Israeli. 0:20:43.640 --> 0:20:47.750 Israelis are the side channel goats. Six techniques I use 0:20:47.750 --> 0:20:50.690 to create a great user experience for shell scripts. This 0:20:50.690 --> 0:20:53.690 was a great read. User friendly shell scripts with techniques 0:20:53.690 --> 0:20:59.030 like comprehensive error handling, colorful output, and progress reporting. These 0:20:59.030 --> 0:21:01.130 things really do make a difference. They make it feel 0:21:01.130 --> 0:21:03.320 like an actual app. Two people made a tool that 0:21:03.320 --> 0:21:07.280 lets you transfer playlists between Apple Music and Spotify and 0:21:07.280 --> 0:21:10.100 YouTube music. Those are kind of the three big ones. 0:21:10.100 --> 0:21:13.070 Nothing is a timer that celebrates the art of doing 0:21:13.100 --> 0:21:17.450 absolutely nothing. And how to create a pipeline with pinecone 0:21:17.450 --> 0:21:22.199 and semantic image search CLI CLE ideas. I love it 0:21:22.230 --> 0:21:25.859 when experts completely disagree about a really important thing. Like 0:21:25.859 --> 0:21:29.790 for example, I have no idea if China is thriving 0:21:29.790 --> 0:21:31.560 right now and is about to take over the world, 0:21:31.560 --> 0:21:34.980 or if they are about to have this demographic collapse 0:21:34.980 --> 0:21:37.590 and their economy is tanking, and they've got the housing 0:21:37.590 --> 0:21:41.669 crisis and they're just in major upheaval, and she is 0:21:41.670 --> 0:21:45.150 facing pressure and time is running out. And they have 0:21:45.180 --> 0:21:48.090 brain drain going to the west. And they're super screwed 0:21:48.090 --> 0:21:50.160 because they're slowing down AI and they're going to get 0:21:50.160 --> 0:21:52.619 passed up. I don't know if that's true or if 0:21:52.619 --> 0:21:55.080 they're about to invent their own chips. They're about to 0:21:55.109 --> 0:21:57.990 not need Nvidia. They're about to take over everything because 0:21:57.990 --> 0:22:00.930 the West is stupid. And I could find the world's 0:22:00.930 --> 0:22:04.050 best experts who tell me both of those things and 0:22:04.050 --> 0:22:06.720 tell me that the other set of experts is completely wrong. 0:22:06.720 --> 0:22:09.750 I find that fascinating, and I've read a whole bunch 0:22:09.750 --> 0:22:14.790 of books. I've read probably 12 deep, like large books 0:22:14.790 --> 0:22:18.929 about China or dedicated just to China and its development, 0:22:18.930 --> 0:22:21.679 probably the most important one being like Chip Wars, although 0:22:21.680 --> 0:22:23.450 that was more about chips than it was about China. 0:22:23.450 --> 0:22:25.850 But it definitely talked about China a lot. But I 0:22:25.850 --> 0:22:28.220 read a whole bunch that were dedicated just to China. 0:22:28.220 --> 0:22:30.920 And I mean, it didn't tell me the answer. I mean, 0:22:30.950 --> 0:22:33.050 I have all these opinions and I listen to these 0:22:33.050 --> 0:22:35.419 opinions of like, the smartest people, but the fact that 0:22:35.420 --> 0:22:38.870 I still don't know, after reading all those books and 0:22:38.869 --> 0:22:41.180 seeing all the data and listening to all these smart 0:22:41.180 --> 0:22:44.449 experts and I still don't know, that is exhilarating to me. 0:22:44.450 --> 0:22:48.020 I'm like, wow. I mean, I love the idea of 0:22:48.050 --> 0:22:51.710 like and I'm happy with myself for not like picking 0:22:51.710 --> 0:22:53.750 one and just saying, oh, this is what I think 0:22:53.780 --> 0:22:56.780 is going to happen. I tend to it's like strong opinions, 0:22:56.780 --> 0:22:59.120 loosely held, you know, and the recommendation of the week 0:22:59.150 --> 0:23:03.920 actively guard against age related lock in, which starts around 30. 0:23:03.950 --> 0:23:06.320 I'm guessing I made that up, but roughly around there, 0:23:06.320 --> 0:23:08.840 maybe even late 20s. And for some people it doesn't 0:23:08.840 --> 0:23:12.320 kick in. I've been very resistant to it, although I 0:23:12.350 --> 0:23:16.400 am writing this also to myself because you actively have 0:23:16.400 --> 0:23:19.650 to fight it. Listen to new music, read new books 0:23:19.650 --> 0:23:22.410 with new ideas in them, talk to new people. Go 0:23:22.410 --> 0:23:26.100 to strange restaurants. Try new foods. Don't let your experiences 0:23:26.100 --> 0:23:29.640 reduce into a tighter and tighter death spiral. Variation keeps 0:23:29.640 --> 0:23:32.370 your mind young and the aphorism of the week. Choosing 0:23:32.369 --> 0:23:35.100 not to read great books has the same effect as 0:23:35.100 --> 0:23:38.550 not being allowed to. Choosing not to read great books 0:23:38.550 --> 0:23:43.889 has the same effect as not being allowed to. Unsupervised 0:23:43.890 --> 0:23:46.379 learning is produced and edited by Daniel Miessler on a 0:23:46.410 --> 0:23:51.270 Neumann U87 AI microphone using Hindenburg.
