I don't know what you consider to be safe, but I assume you're talking about privacy and data retention.

You can pay someone like Ollama, which is US-based, which runs those models in their cloud. You can also download many/most of the models to run them locally on your own computer, although the performance depends entirely on your hardware capabilities.

Ollama has their own policies about privacy and data retention here:

That's just one third-party doing this, and there are many others.


The optics don't look good for Microsoft, but we don't know their side of the story.


It doesnt really matter. Banning someone GitHub account change literally nothing and its another proof Microsoft is not to be trusted as steward of open source platform.


Worse, cant be trusted to have secure products.


They lost the trust of having secure products a long time ago. Windows is directly responsible for the rash of varying quality EDR & other "security software" for endpoints.

I mean it took them until Windows 10 to move font rendering out of Ring 0, you could run malicious code in kernel space from a freaking font on a web page at one point.


Same.

I left a really good job for a year, to go work for a company CEO'd by a buddy of mine. I had a bad, sinking feeling in my gut from the very beginning when In interviewed with my new boss (not my buddy). Sure enough, I fucking hated working for him, and quit after a year.

When I was leaving my old job, I remember rationalizing it to myself that I would regret not doing it if I didn't try. I have mixed feelings about that job -- not necessarily regret for taking it, but definitely some regrets for how things went down at the end.

With that being said, if I had turned down that job, I don't know if I would regret it now or not. Who's to say?

Anyway, I got my old job back, and lasted there for several more years. It's still the best place I ever worked.


I remember having this interview with an HR person several years ago (like in the early 2010s) where she asked me all these vague, difficult to answer questions. None of them were technical, and I can't remember a single one of them now, but they reminded me of the vague questions we get from various IT audits.

I can confirm this. Our Model 3 doesn't charge as fast using a NEMA 14-50 plug connected via the Tesla-provided mobile charger.

When we moved to a new house, we bought a Tesla wall charger, and it indeed charges at higher amps, but I don't know if the extra speed has necessarily been worth it since we primarily charge the car overnight.


And I'm _still_ laughing. LOL


Since when was there ever a plan to disable IPv4 on the Internet? Just because IPv6 is around doesn't mean that IPv4 is going to go away.


That was always the plan for "the future". That is get everyone to IPv6 and then get rid of IPv4. IPv4's days are numbered - but the number looks really big.


Why would we keep around a whole separate Internet? Dual stack was always only intended for the transition period.


It's very hard to get rid of old standards.

"The past is never dead. It's not even past"


Of course there's an incredibly long tail here, but in the big picture, "nobody except some people maintaining a few legacy systems ever need to learn to work with this protocol anymore" is practically the same thing.


What a gorgeous sight to behold!


Where was that coal coming from?


I feel dumb. I've never heard of Antigravity until now.


Good for you :)


Welcome to the singularity, now in progress. One of its defining features is that things move too fast for people to keep up.


By this logic though JavaScript frameworks were the singularity


lol. True. I guess the difference is “things that matter to technological progress” move too fast to keep up.
