Daily Tech News 15 August 2024

Top Story

  • So what is going on with that data breach of 2.9 billion people? (Troy Hunt)

    I'm glad you asked.

    Since the breach is supposed to affect only the US, UK, and Canada, and those countries do not have 2.9 billion people, obviously someone was being imprecise.

    Turns out that a lot of people where being imprecise. While the National Public Data breach does contain 2.9 billion records, that does not mean 2.9 billion people.

    Troy Hunt took a leaked sample of the data which contains 134 million unique email addresses. He found himself in the list 28 times, but none of the entries associated his email address with any other recognisable data.

    So... It's bad, but probably not the end of the world.

    That's next year.


Tech News

  • Putting AMD's Ryzen 9 9950X to the test. (AnandTech)

    We're getting a clearer picture of why some reviewers are praising the Ryzen 9000 series and others are panning it.

    If you are focused mainly on gaming performance, the 9000 series offers only modest gains over the 7000 series, but costs significantly more.

    And there's no Ryzen 9000 X3D model yet - these models triple the on-chip memory and provide significantly better performance on many games - so the net result is that the newer, more expensive chips are actually slower.

    But if you are focused on technical work, Ryzen 9000 rules the roost. And if you can use AVX-512 - 512-bit vector math - it crushes everything else like a bug, up to ten times as fast as Intel's offerings (which have AVX-512 but disabled).

    There are also some potential performance issues with the 12 and 16 core chips on Windows right now, issues that didn't happen with Ryzen 7000, and don't happen on Linux.

    So it's not a simple one to recommend, but it's also not bad.

    If you're interested in gaming though, either go with the 7800X3D now or wait for the 9800X3D.


  • Middle age starts at 44, and old age at 60. Ish. (The Guardian)

    Scientists studying biochemical markers of aging have found that it's not a steady process, but shows two bursts of aging around 44 and 60 years.

    They suspect another burst at 78 based on other studies, but haven't actually looked.


  • Google Gemini is replacing Google Assistant on Google Pixel Phones. There's just one small problem. (Fast Company)

    It doesn't work. Inasmuch as Google Assistant works, Gemini doesn't.


  • The Harris campaign is lying. (The Verge)

    You know it's bad when the crazies at The Verge are saying that.


  • Twitter has announced its new AI image generation tool and the left has gone even more insane than usual. (The Verge)

    The article isn't the worst of it here. It's kind of bad, but just the usual nonsense you expect from leftist hand-wetting bed-wringers. The comments are deranged.


  • Police in New Zealand are racing to track down candy distributed by an Auckland charity. (BBC)

    Because they contain potentially lethal amounts of meth - with a street value of as much as $600 in each piece of candy - about 300 times the typical dose.

    No, I don't know either.

7 Evening and morning to all the AoSHQ satellites and outposts! How's your Thursday looking? I slept a decent time last night, though not solidly. I've learned having a pipe before dinner means I'll be hitting the head every two hours all night. So that has to stop, sadly; it's a relaxing moment after work.

Except for insomniac waking and the like, I haven't seen 1:20 am in forever. Certainly I haven't stayed up that late in years. Maybe after I retire I can stay up later and (I hope) sleep later.

You know how some people have mentioned that MushBrain seems more rested and a little more energized since he withdrew from the '24 race? I can see it. I envision myself being more rested and energized once I don't have to deal with commuting and long days at the computer, and can grab an afternoon nap if I want one. (And I will.)

17 Staying up late, has become a bad habit of mine.

I do get tired by 10 or 11pm, but there's always One More Thing to do... so, I do it & then have a small rush of energy... and then get tired again... try to sleep and can't...

Ugh. I need to force myself back onto a decent schedule. Which means forcing hubby, too. *and there's the rub* He's different each day. And more stubborn than any mule.

This alone is a tremendous step forward:

"Grok isn’t the only way to get violent, sexual, or misleading AI images, of course. Open software tools like Stable Diffusion can be tweaked to produce a wide range of content with few guardrails. It’s just a highly unusual approach for an online chatbot from a major tech company — Google paused Gemini’s image generation capabilities entirely after an embarrassing attempt to overcorrect for race and gender stereotypes."

And yes, the comments are mostly insane and worth a read to know what freedom-loving Americans are up against. This one was good (not joking, I like the point):

"This is the inevitable result of all the censorship on the other image generators."

Good for Musk for allowing his to be a teensy, tiny bit uncensored.

Can someone please explain to me how this isn't "obstruction of official proceedings" or whatever it was claimed about J6?

Also there's only downsides for the cops and they know it. Antifa / Democrats literally have their own group of assigned lawyers for this stuff discussed at the link. They pose in front of places with their antifa swag. Stop the fascists and you and your family become targets of the state instead. Lot easier to let them do what they want and go home and forget about it.

82 Moore's Law is Dead put out a leak hammering AMD's handling of Zen 5. Apparently they mismanaged it bad enough that people who know are green lighting leaking what went wrong.

Apparently they had problems with the unit la core team starting from the Zen 2 baseline, and number of team swaps, and released it a couple of months before the Windows Scheduler software, or even the final micro code was done.

Also, either marketting was making stuff up, or someone in the engineering team was lying to them about current performance results.

They're potentially very good, but the finalization and release has been a management clownshow. AMD needs to get their act together before they do to themselves what Intel is vigorously doing to itself.
