They could do that with their shopping app that lets you scan an item and checkout in app; but as soon as people found out they were charged different prices for the same thing on say the same day it would be a PR nightmare. I can see it more as a way to adjust prices dynamically regionally based on demand, not much different than what is done anyway just faster.

I’m with you, how do they know what price to charge once you are at the checkout line? If you shop with someone and they track by phone, which phone to use at checkout? Both? What if one person doesn’t go to the line? It’s not as easy as change digital tag.

It's not even a legal stretch to do so. If I encourage a 6 year old to drive a car and there is an accident, I'm legally on the hook for the lot of it with criminal charges on top. Why shouldn't the AI companies face the same liabilities?

Moving from 1024 to 2048 when 768 is broken is one thing. But so far, quantum computers have only managed 6 bits and had to cheat a bit to do it. It took longer than a child with pencil and paper would take. The new improved quantum computers that were going to do better than that some 6 years ago just kinda didn't happen. We'll get 'em next year?

The fact that this RSA weakness is not based on quantum computation is irrelevant

It's extremely relevant. An actual computer that we can build today can exploit the new RSA weakness. We have no computers today that can run Shor or Grover and the timeline for one that can on a useful scale is somewhere between years and never.

Also how we got to post-quantum when quantum computers have yet to factor anything faster than a 6th grader with pencil and paper.

You are both done laughing and not done laughing.

California Penal Code 399: If an owner knows their animal is dangerous or mischievous, fails to keep it under control, and it kills a person, the owner commits a felony. If only serious injury occurs, it is a wobbler (depends on extent of injury as to whether misdemeanor or felony charges get pressed.)

No state completely lacks a legal mechanism to penalize or hold owners civilly or criminally negligent in this case, and most states explicitly have criminal statues covering this.

Are you just being willfully obtuse or what?

hackernews (when it isn't loaded with fucktons of AI stories)

Using a GPU versus a CPU (as was done here) increases how quickly you can churn through those remaining possible permutations (I read the actual paper.)

What was done on an academic CPU cluster could probably be just as easily performed on a well-tuned bitcoin rig at far far faster speed.

Call it what it is in reality, lies.

2048-bit RSA that protects an AES-256 key that actually does the encryption - those of you that ever had a ransomware hit you from a cock.li address might have hope of recovering your stuff, yet!

However, if tehy sell a product in the US, tehy do have at least an economic nexus, and DeepSeek certainly does, which is teh company I was referring to.

That of course, is teh challenge with teh transnational nature of teh internet. There isn't a whole lot teh EU could do if tehy decided a foreign website violated tehir laws, beyond say requiring ISPs to block your website, unless of course they sold stuff to EU citizens. Teh question I posed is an economic nexus enough to trigger Constitutional protections?

80 trillion operations per second wasted on AI garbage when that could have gone to x86 emulation and made a smartphone on the level of desktop systems.

Instead they choose to spy on you and steal your information.

You stupid gamergate moron. This is why you can't get laid. You can't even remember the bitches you were white-knighting.
