1/3 NV Access is pleased to announce that we are using a new code signing certificate for our builds. This will give users additional peace of mind in the authenticity of NVDA builds.

In the interim, those running new Alpha / beta builds may see a warning from Microsoft that Windows Defender prevented an unrecognised program from running. It is important to be wary of unexpected warnings like this, however in this case, the warning is expected, as the certificate is new.

in reply to NV Access

2/3 When the warning appears, press tab to "More info", then press enter. Reading through the dialog, note that the publisher is listed as:

"AU, Queensland, Camp Mountain, NV Access Limited, NV Access Limited"

To allow NVDA to run, press tab to "Run anyway", and press enter to run the snapshot. This will help us get through this period until Windows considers our certificate "trusted":

Yesterday, I blogged about curl's graceful connection shutdown. I was a bit vague on why this is beneficial in TCP.

With the help of Dan Fandrich, I provide a more detailed explanation. Hope it helps.

I guess all this insights is not original, I think about it more after listening to the talking description to me Podcast, shout out to @ChristineMalec
in reply to Kaveinthran

The problem is that you need a pretty huge context size in order to do what you want to do, I’m actually not sure what the hardware requirements for large context models look like at the moment. I know they were pretty bad a year ago, but these things move quickly so I’d have to check at this point.

Let Readers Read

#InternetArchive: "Our position is straightforward; we just want to let our library patrons borrow and read the books we own, like any other library. [...] But the publishers suing our library say we shouldn’t be allowed to lend the books we own. They have forced us to remove more than half a million books from our library, and that’s why we are appealing".

The amount of rain in the Netherlands since 1 October is totally out of the range we knew. A very persistent jet stream pattern combined with lots of moisture over the warm Atlantic causes it. Behind that: climate change.
Expect more surprises.

I just read this, and have a bit of constructive criticism. The first version of Windows to include TTS functionality out of the box was actually Windows 2000.

@keith You’d need to take into account people who want their contact information on there instead of just their registrar’s.

Contact points for domain issues that are unlikely to be the registrar’s fault can be useful for some orgs. An abuse contact that isn’t the registrar can be more useful if the org wants to be the first to know about an issue, or if the registrar is unlikely to hold the registrant accountable. Run some queries on domains own by large companies and you’ll see somewhat little WHOIS privacy despite it being easy for them to obtain.

So you’d need the default to have WHOIS privacy, and an opt-in to put your own contact information…which isn’t too different from the current landscape. NameCheap, Porkbun, I think Google Domains, etc. all offer WHOIS privacy by default.

My friend @pikhq is brilliant, and based on one of her suggestions, I've developed the worlds first artificial intelligence CEO!
in reply to rabbit

The CEO market is ripe for disruption! While it's tricky to teach an LLM to do very technical tasks, it's trivial to teach them to make decisions which maximize shareholder value. With the current cost of CEO labor, this is a market ripe for the picking!
in reply to rabbit

You could even supplement your virtual CEO with genuine human intelligence as necessary with gig CEOs. With CEOs costing in the millions of dollars a year, replacing them with gig-work CEOs which don't require bonuses could save significant operating expenses.
