ChatGPT's model is called "gpt-3.5-turbo".

Why bother with IPv6 support when IPv4 is more supported, and generally not in a state where we need to be using IPv6 as a default ?

Cool, but the badly looping background annoys me too much to use it. If you're trying to create a solution that allows peopel to focus, remove the badly edited thing that prevents them from focusing :P

recrudesce commented on I quit infosec and I couldn't be happier   paulsec.github.io/posts/i... · Posted by u/PaulSec

I have been working in infosec for 10 years now. I know this author doesn't want to convince anyone, and I am happy that they are happy. :)

But I am kinda wondering why this brings so much attention? To me this reads like a long trip down memory lane. Is your takeaway: "if your job and your hobby are too similar, then this will lead to burnout?" Or is it "a job in infosec will lead to burnout, because infosec has certain inherent problems?"

I think it's mostly that the echo chamber that is the Infosec world gets tiring after a while.

Let's just shout "ffs, just patch yo' shit" rather than actually trying to educate people.

Let's all go to a hacking convention, and act like children and hack everything within arms reach at all times.

Let's all belittle people who don't have the same level of technical skill as us.

Let's all be arseholes to women in the field.

etc etc. that's why I took a step back, because for all the "we want to help you fix things to make the world a more secure place", the infosec industry seems to not want to help make it happen.

If anything, Twitter locking an incredibly insecure method of 2FA behind a paywall is a GOOD thing IMHO, cos it forces users to use a more secure methods instead such as using an authenticator app (Authy et al)
recrudesce commented on Ask HN: Thoughts on using IPFS key to store an physical address in your database    · Posted by u/sharemywin
recrudesce · 3 years ago
Great and all, but you'd need the IPFS data pinned somewhere, else it'll get garbage collected after a while. And if you're pinning it to a specific server (such as one you're running), why not just store the actual data in the database instead ?
