It sounds a heck of a lot like Bitcoin's mining algorithm. But what really surprised me was where Google's AI tried to offer workarounds.

"How to Kill the Delay

Because Anubis relies entirely on client-side JavaScript execution to generate the cookie, you can use these methods to skip the wait:

Use a Browser Extension: Community-made extensions (like Anubis Bypass) automatically inject the required tokens or pre-calculate hashes instantly.

Pre-Mine with a Script: If you are scraping or scripting, you can write a lightweight local script (in C or Python) to solve the SHA-256 challenge instantly, passing the valid token directly in your request headers.

Spoof your User-Agent: Anubis triggers by default when it sees "Mozilla" in the header. Changing your User-Agent to a custom string or a non-standard crawler format sometimes bypasses the check entirely if the site admin didn't configure strict fallback rules."

The precalculating idea sounds plausible if you know what the calculation would be based off of.

Let's suddenly break a really complex system, trying to fix something short term... I mean "what could possibly go wrong?!?!"

Anyone know what specific gene they're breaking? And what typically regulates it?

I am 100% certain that most doctors still have no clue about cholesterol, plaques, etc... They keep repeating the same broken advice, is how I know.

I mean on the camera they used, yeah it is harder to instantly see. But that only really helps if you're not looking for it, or it goes by pretty quickly.

Or if it had VERY good sensors that could work from a long distance... I guess that might offer something.

I mean unique solution to the problem, sure.

Guess everyone needs a place.

Since they explicitly called that factor out between the "interesting" group and not. And my mind first goes to "sleep" if noise is the issue. I guess "stress" in general might be higher too, and that might lead to something, but...

News at 11.

Or "profits beyond reasonable repayment for capital, indicative of monopolistic, or monopsonistic, power over the other trade party".

I think we need to codify what "normal" is, and what should happen otherwise. Winners won't willingly give up their winning lottery ticket unless forced.

It isn't like Micron made any amazing technology leap, or strategic business decision that paid off. No, they're lucky. And those in power have decided that AI companies win.

They obviously failed their duties to direct everyone else.

Seems like plenty of people at NVIDIA would work harder not to let their products get into the wrong hands if they would feel pain when they failed.

Dell who couldn't identify the product before Apple, decides they can solve the same problem how they always have. Good luck with that Dell.

The only way the "old guard" tech are still around is by momentum and (customer) memory loss.

as they want to believe. They're just the psychopath in charge. The front man.

Surely by now.

Those CPU extensions for creating a separate area that is secure. The ones Intel removed from consumer CPU's which broke playback of 4K bluerays on desktop PC's from that point forward.

Meaning partner, children, friends, etc... can all hear information ahead of time too. Just think Nancy Pelosi's husband who seemed to beat the market reliably.

It'd certainly help everyone move to versions that are secure if the insecure versions would turn themselves off. Meaning the creator/publisher would remove approval for easily broken/hacked versions, and after a few warnings would disable/block the broken versions from running at all.

Yes, I'm aware of issues with this pattern, but it still sounds "more secure" than what's typical today (relying on each separate developer to decide to upgrade).
