Welcome to “Behind The Data”. We all know that data is all around us — it powers every algorithm, predictive model, and AI tool that is revolutionizing our lives. But where does it come from? Who collected it? How do we know if it’s any good? For every dataset shaping our lives, there is a person or team making impactful decisions about what to track and how to track it that we are barely talking about. In this show we go behind the data to understand the stories and incentives behind how all this data came to be, why it matters for our lives, and how we can play a role in shaping it going forward.

Episode transcript:
To describe Robert Metcalfe’s life might sound stereotypical for an American who grew up in the 1950s. He was born in 1946 in Brooklyn. His Mom was a homemaker and his dad was a test technician working in gyroscopes. He graduated from Bay Shore High School in 1964 and got bachelors in electrical engineering and industrial management from MIT in 1969. He got his Masters in applied mathematics from Harvard in 1970 and was cruising to a Harvard Ph.D. in computer science. A true American success story.
Until he wanted to connect to the brand new ARPANet node at Harvard. Metcalfe didn’t take no for an answer. He made his own fate. He used his contacts at MIT and got a job at the school’s Project MAC, which would eventually become the Computer Science and Artificial INtelligence Lab. He worked on the hardware that linked MIT’s minicomputers to the ARPANet.
It seemed like that was his thing. He proposed APRPANet as a topic for his thesis, but Harvard rejected it. While he tried to figure out how to revise the thesis, he got a job out in California at Xerox PARC. While there he read about the ingenious way scientists in Hawaii had figured out how to connect computers between the islands. It was called ALOHANet. He helped them fix some of the bugs in their connections and folded that into his thesis. This time Harvard accepted it.
It definitely seemed like connecting computers was his thing. And if you’ve ever plugged an ethernet cable in to get the internet, you’re glad it was.
Let’s help you know a little more, about ethernet.
Ethernet is a computer networking technology that lets you send data from one machine to another. Typically it’s used for internet traffic, but it can also be used for local area networks, or LANs.
While we think of ethernet as the wires and the funky plug with the little clip, the form factor of the wire isn’t the truly important part. It’s the protocol that makes it ethernet. I could conceivably plug any kind of wire between two computers but you need rules but it would be chaos without rules about which computer is sending and which one is receiving data. If both try to send at the same time you get collisions. Heck even when you do have rules you get collisions. The protocol works because it has good rules not only to try to avoid collisions but how to handle them when they happen anyway.
Ethernet is a very good set of rules.
To use ethernet, systems will divide data into short pieces called frames. Each frame contains info on where it originated, where its end destination is and some error-checking data to determine if the data has been corrupted. If it has, the frame will be discarded and in many instances can be retransmitted.
Think about it this way. When we have a conversation, we don’t both usually talk at once. You talk and then I talk. If we both start talking at once, we stop and one of us lets the other repeat what they said. The ethernet protocol does that too. It basically says for machines to wait until they don’t detect any incoming data before they start sending data. And yes there are rules to stop one machine from dominating the conversation. You have to take breaks every so often. The protocol also has rules for what happens when an accident causes two pieces of data to collide and get corrupted. Sometimes that means ignoring them, sometimes that means asking for them to be re-sent. It depends how important the data is. There are also origination points and endpoints. That’s important when data goes through an ethernet switch, so it knows where to send which frames of data.
Let’s get back to our friend Robert Metcalfe. As we mentioned, while at Xerox PARC, Metcalfe read up on Hawaii’s ALOHANet, which solved the problem of inter-island communication in Hawaii. Starting in June 1971, ALOHANet worked by dividing outbound and inbound traffic into separate channels. Outbound traffic just broadcast everything as packets with each packet containing a destination. Packets were rebroadcast until it was acknowledged that they had been received. We have a whole episode on ALOHANet.
Metcalfe fixed a few bugs particularly about collisions in ALOHANet and included that work in his Harvard PhD Thesis. He used that knowledge at Xerox PARC when he and David Boggs started to develop a way of connecting computers by wire over short distances. At least short compared to islands separated by large distances of water.
Metcalfe was trying to make it easier for Xerox’s Alto computers to communicate. At one point he even called ethernet the Alto Aloha Network since he was using a lot of the methods from ALOHANet.
But the name ethernet was also there from the start. His ideas were first documented on May 22, 1973 in a memo called Alto Ethernet. He likened the ever present stream of data flowing through the wires to the “luminiferous Aether” once believed to be the way electromagnetic waves moved through space.
Ethernet itself first functioned on November 11, 1973.
Xerox filed for a patent on ethernet in 1975, listing Metcalfe, Boggs, Alto designer Chuck Thacker and distributed computing pioneer Butler Lampson as its inventors. Metcalfe and Boggs also published a paper on ethernet in 1976 that was used as the definitive reference work for it.
Metcalfe left Xerox in 1979 to start 3Com but he was able to convince DEC, Intel and Xerox to work together to make ethernet a standard so everyone could use it.
In February 1980, The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, IEEE, started project 802 to standardize Local Area Networks. Ethernet, along with Token Ring and Token Bus were the most popular of the different ways you could connect computers to each other in a network. The 802 group divided into three subgroups to develop standardization for each of the protocols. The group working on ethernet had the reps from DEC, Intel and Xerox and were called the “DIX” group. They called their standard the Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection protocol or CSMA/CD. If you see that somewhere you can assume that means ethernet.
Ethernet originally worked at 2.94 Mbits/s. To make it more commercially acceptable, Yogen Dalal, Ron Crane, Bob Garner and Roy Ogus adapted the protocol to work at 10 Mbit/s.
The first standard at 10 Mbit/s was published September 30, 1980.
The first commercialization also came in 1980 but it was in March of the next year that Metcalfe’s 3Com shipped its first 10 Mbit/s Ethernet 3C100 NIC.
Ethernet becoming a standard would be essential to 3COM, so Metcalfe and David Liddle of Xerox Office Systems, supported Siemens efforts for an alliance in office communications and Siemens helped push for standardization of Ethernet ahead of Token Ring and Token Bus.
Siemen’s Ingrid Fromm, a representative on the 802 group established a Task Group on local networks in Europe’s standards body ECMA TC24. By March 1982, ECMA TC24 agreed on a standard for ethernet based on the IEEE 802 draft. A second version of the DIX group’s works with some tweaks was published in November 1982, known as Ethernet II.
The decisiveness of the ECMA combined with the technical completeness of the DIX group’s work consolidated opinions around ethernet which was approved in December of 1982. IEEE 802.3 was published as a draft in 1983 and ratified as a standard in 1985. International adoption came with the adoption of ISO 8802-3 in 1989.
The rest is upgrades. 100 Mbps ethernet came along in 1995 and Gigabit in 1999. 10-Gigabit ethernet arrived in 2002, and 40 and 100 Gps in 2010. Research continues but 40 is the best you can get for your home because you can’t get any devices for your home that can take advantage of more than that.
So how does it work?
Let’s say you’re sending an email. The data that makes up the email would be broken into packets. Each packet will have three main parts. The bulk of it is the data, the bit of your email being sent. The beginning of the frame is a header which has the Media Access Control address or MAC address of the machine it’s being sent from, the MAC address of where it’s going as well as some other info like IP addresses encryption etc. And the end of the Frame is a frame check value which is used to detect if the frame has been corrupted during transit. That packet is then encapsulated in a. Frame which has information to synchronize the sender and the receiver. This makes sure that even though the frames may arrive at of order everybody knows where the frame fits in the full message.
Once the Frame has been created, the transmitting station waits for the channel to go idle and then sends the frame.
At the other end the receiving station will check to make sure the frame has not been corrupted. If it has it will signal a collision so that the originating transmitter can re-send it. If it’s not corrupted it moves the data into the layer where the frames can be reassembled into the full data, in this case your email.
I skipped over cables earlier because they really are at the service of the protocol. But let’s talk about the cables available now and what they mean.
All ethernet cable use an RJ45 connector. It’s a bit of misnomer since it refers to the jack not the plug, and the jack has a key that twisted pair ethernet cables do not. But nobody really makes a big deal of that anymore. If you must know, ethernet actually uses a modular 8P8C interface, but try asking for that at the computer store and see how far it gets you.
The wire itself as I just mentioned is a twisted pair of wires with a plastic covering. Most ethernet cables are unshielded, known as UTP for unshielded twisted pair, making them more flexible. If you have problems with interference in your area for some reason, more likely in industrial situations than home use, you can get STP or FTP which stand for shielded twisted pair or foiled twisted pair. This has the tradeoff of making the cables thicker and less flexible.
There are 7 widely available types of ethernet cables and they mostly look alike except for the stamp that tells you which kind they are.
The different types can handle different data rates aka speed and bandwidth aka amount of data. I’m just going to give the speed numbers below since bandwidth numbers are less commonly used and won’t mean much to most people.
Cat 5 is the most common and can handle up to 100 Mbps. Cat 5e can do gigabit. Cat 6 which also does gigabit has more bandwidth than 5e. 6a can do 10 gig. Cat 7 does 10 gig with more bandwidth. Cat 7a does 40 Gig. And Cat 8 does up to 40 Gbps with more bandwidth.
If your ethernet cable gets damaged it may not stop working but instead get detected as a lower category. A pinch in a gigabit cat 6 cable might show up as a cat 5 cable.
Then there’s the ports. You may have an ethernet port on your PC or an adapter that gives you one on a laptop. There’s also ethernet ports on routers. And if you want to extend the range of Ethernet, or just need more ports than your routers, you’ll need an ethernet switch. The ports are rated by data rate. You’ll get the lowest of the speeds among all the ethernet ports in your chain. Those ports can be 1 Gbps, 2.5 or 10.
Ethernet is generally more stable, more secure and less prone to interference, even when unshielded, compared to WiFi. You may hear people refer to it as a “hard line” or wired connection. WiFi is pretty fast and reliable these days, but if you have any questions about the reliability of the connection you’ll want to go with ethernet.
Metcalfe received the ACM Grace Hopper award in 1980 for his work on ethernet. He stayed with 3COM until 1990 when the board passed him over for CEO and he left. He spent the next ten years writing a column for InfoWorld.
In 1995 he predicted the internet would collapse within a year or he would eat his words. The next year he blended a page with his prediction and swallowed it. He tried to get them to let him eat a cake with the words frosted on it. To no avail.
He eventually became a venture capitalist and teacher at UT Austin and in June 2022 returned to Project MAC at MIT now known as the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory as a research affiliate and computational engineer, working with the MIT Julia Lab.
So now you know where the inventor of ethernet is. And hope you know a little more about ethernet.

Episode transcript:
In 1962, Robert Taylor’s future seemed galactic. The Dallas, Texas native was working for NASA on a new project called Apollo that aimed to land a man no the Moon. It had been a long road to this post. Starting at SMU, a tour with the Navy in Korea, back to finish his degree, slowly, at UT-Austin thanks to the GI bill. And eventually getting a Masters in psychology in 1959.
What were you supposed to do with experimental psychology in 1959? He toyed with getting a PhD, the route most of his friends and advisors had said looked obvious, but he wasn’t interested in the course he would have to take. He was integrated in psyhoacoastics. The applied physics of psychology.
He taught math and coached basketball for a year in Howey academy in Florida, but then the twins came it was time for him to find a better paying job. So he bounced around as an engineer designing aircraft, including the MGM-31 Pershing for Martin Marietta.
And in 1962, he submitted a research proposal for a flight control simulation display to NASA and they asked him to join the Office of Advanced Research and Technology.
Among the many people he met in his work there was Doug Engelbart, who was developing a suite of computer interface improvements at the Stanford Research Institute, including what would become the Mouse. Taylor made sure some NASA funds went Engelbart’s way.
In 1965, Bob Taylor took another step up becoming a deputy director and shortly thereafter, director of the Information Processing Techniques Office at ARPA. The Advanced Research Project Agency run by the US Department of Defense.
He kept helping out Engelbart and encouraged him to show off his progress at the Fall Joint Computer Conference in San Francisco in 1968. That demo would later be known as the Mother of All Demos. It showed the Mouse, the word processor, hypertext, graphics, video conferencing and collaborative editing, years if not decades before they would become commonplace.
If you’ve listened to our episode about the Mother of All Demos, you know what happened next.
Nothing.
People talked about how impressed they were. And that was it.
At least that was mostly it. The next year, 1969, the chief scientist at Xerox, Jack Goldman, decided to found a west-coast research center in Palo Alto, right down the road from Engelbart’s SRI. Xerox’s Palo Alto Research Center or PARC was far enough from headquarters in Rochester, New York, that scientists could feel a little freer to experiment.
It opened on July 1, 1970, and began bringing in scientists who felt like maybe they had hit a brick wall elsewhere, to give them funding and freedom to develop new ideas. Among those early hires were many of the folks who helped Engelbart on his Mother of All Demos.
And one was a former ARPA director who had left to teach at the University of Utah, but found he wasn’t fitting in. Robert Taylor came to Palo Alto to head up the Computer Science lab there.
That lab would help develop laser printing, ethernet, Graphical User Interfaces, e-paper and even help popularize Engelbart’s mouse.
Let’s help you Know a Little More about Xerox PARC.
George Pake could not serve during World War II because he had Scoliosis. Instead he attended Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh and got his doctorate in Physics at Harvard in 1948. He took his research in nuclear magnetic resonance to Washington University in St. Louis where he taught Physics for four years before being named the head of the Physics department at age 28. By age 38, in 1962 he was Provost.
He could have lived out his career comfortably at Washington and been very happy. After all he had a shape in nuclear resonance imaging named after him, the Pake Doublet.
But Carnegie Tech physics faculty member Jack Goldman was chief scientist at Xerox.
His boss, the chairman of Xerox, Peter McColough, told the New York Society of Security Analysts in 1969 that Xerox was going to develop “the architecture of information” to solve the problems that had been created by the “knowledge explosion.”
As some tell it, McColough turned to his chief scientist after the talk and said, “All right, go start a lab that will find out what I just meant.”
Goldman says it was his idea, brought on by Xerox buying Scientific Data Systems. If you were going to have digital computer business you needed a computer research lab.
And who better than his friend George Pake. Goldman talked Pake into heading out to Palo Alto, California and starting the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center.
It was a good choice. Pake started an all-star team. Granted he drew from the folks departing the Stanford Research Institute as its funding began to decline. There was also a pipeline of fresh young minds coming right out of Stanford Itself.
The whole thing is a demonstration of good delegation. Mycologh trusted Goldman who trusted Pake who entrusted our old friend Robert Taylor to make all this happen.
Except nobody knew what it was they were supposed to make happen. McColough and Goldman said the mission of the lab was to develop the “architecture of information.”
That meant whatever anyone working in the lab wanted it to mean at the time. 1971 hire James G. Mitchell who came over from Berkeley Computer Corp called it “Tom Sawyering.” “Someone would decide that a certain thing was really important to do. They would start working on it, give some structure to it, and then try to convince other people to come whitewash this fence with them.”
An example of that spirit came when the first 20 people decided they needed to have a computer. DEC’s PDP-10 was the mainframe of choice. But Xerox had just bought SDS which made the Sigma 7 and didn’t love the idea of the press finding out that Xerox’s own research lab used the competition’s hardware. But building an OS for Sigma 7 was estimated to take about three years.
So the PARC team built their own machine from scratch. The MAXC (Multiple Access Xerox Computer) was so well made and cared for that it held the record for availability on the early ARPANet.
It was built using 1,103 dynamic RAM from a small company called Intel. A lot of those chips were duds so the PARC team eventually built a tester so they could find out whether they were a dud faster. Intel eventually used that tester on its production lines.
That spirit led to researchers building a lot of things.
Robert Metcalfe, David Boggs and Chuck Thacker took some work from Hawaii’s Alohanet and created the ethernet cabling system to make it easier to plug data feeds into systems.
Gary Starkweather invented laser printers and color management.
Bob Sproull made an early head-mounted display.
Charles Simonyi developed text editors that later led to Microsoft office.
Richard Shoup invented 8-bit Frame Buffer and developed Superpaint with David DiFrancesco who would go on to found Pixar.
Alan Kay developed object oriented programming and Graphical User Interfaces.
Charles Geschke developed page description languages and went on to cofound Adobe.
Lynn Conway developed VLSI design.
And of course Bill English came over from SRI with the computer mouse he developed with Engelbart.
Adele Goldberg co-designed the smalltalk programming language with L Peter Deutsch and once in 1979 refused to demonstrate it to Steve Jobs until her superiors made her.
This is only a small part of the huge team that made up PARC in the 1970s, and Bob Taylor was their ringleader. Famous for conducting meetings in bean bag chairs. His meetings were called “Dealer” as in beat the dealer, where open debate was carried out led by team members over ideas. The purpose of dealer was to figure out how to make things work and make progress.
All of that talent and all of that willingness to do-it-yourself made a lot of the bedrock of our modern computers happen, but the pinnacle of Xerox PARC is also sometimes seen as its greatest missed opportunity.
Butler Lampson wasn’t one of the folks from SRI, but he was one of the folks inspired by Doug Engelbart’s NLS demo in 1968. Lampson combined some ideas from the NLS with the University of Illinois’ PLATO system an conceived of a desktop computer with a graphical interface.
In September 1972, Butler Lampson and Chuck Thacker went to Alan Kay, of object oriented programming fame, and asked him if he would like them to build him a computer. He said he’d like that a lot and gave them part of his budget.
Apparently, A Xerox exec had told Thacker it took 18 months to develop major hardware systems. Thacker bet him he could do it in three months. He couldn’t. It took four months and 9 days.
That computer was the prototype of the Xerox Alto. A desktop machine with a keyboard mouse and graphical user interface.
With a few refinements thanks to the Xerox El Segundo team down in LA, they were Able to build 30 of them Everybody wanted one. Supposedly researchers would help assemble them in the Alto lab to speed up the chance they’d get one.
There’s lots more to that story including how Xerox was reluctant to get into the personal computer business. Even when Xerox decided to get behind personal computers with the Xerox 820, it didn’t use the graphical user interface or the mouse. The closest thing to it was the Xerox Star which Xerox marketed as an integrated “personal office system” sold as a package of 2-3 machines with file server and print server. The package cost around $50,000 or more. A Vic-20 at the time was $300.
In 1983, Bob Taylor left Xerox PARC, in part because he was frustrated that Xerox wasn’t using what his team developed. He quit and was hired by Xerox’s mainframe competitor DEC, where he worked until he retired in 1996.
PARC continued churning out good work with a prototype handheld meant for ubiquitous computing called PARCTAB. PARC employees were instrumental in developing IPV6, to expand the internet’s addressing system.
In 2002, Xerox spun PARC out into a wholly-owned subsidiary dedicated to advances in science and business. And in April 2023, Xerox donated the lab and its assets to.. SRI International. Yep the name for the Stanford Research Institute. The one where Doug Engelbart developed the mother of all demos, and where so many ideas and people had come from when Xerox PARC began.
On January 18, 2024, SRI turned PARC into its Future Concepts Division.
A bit of a homecoming.
And now I hope you Know a little more about Xerox PARC.

Episode transcript:
Ask a gamer about hardware and they will spend a lot of your time talking about the GPU. Ask someone about GPUs and they’ll spend a lot of time talking about Nvidia. But what is a GPU? And who invented it?
I can answer the first question for you. At least in enough detail for you to understand how a GPU differs from a CPU. But as for who invented it, the answer is nobody. It slowly evolved over the course of the development of computers and the need to power their displays.
Let’s help you Know a Little More about GPUs.
GPU stands for Graphics Processing Unit. You likely think of it as the thing that makes your video look better, particularly for gaming. Depending on your profession you might think of it as the thing that speeds up your editing or rendering. Crypto miners have often used them to process calculations needed for minting crypto coins. And if you work with the many AI models out there, you probably rely on it for some of your model processing. But what is it exactly?
At base, a GPU can perform certain mathematical calculations at high speed. That’s not that different from a CPU so what’s the difference? The GPU is designed to be able to perform the same operation on multiple data values at the same time. A GPU doesn’t need to do all kinds of operations like a CPU does. That gives it the ability to push through the instructions it is executing at a higher speed.
The earliest GPUs were designed specifically for controlling the display. Over time they have become more programmable to execute parallel-processing for multiple kinds of tasks.
And the GPU is different from the graphics card. The card is a combination of the GPU some memory like VRAM, ports like HDMI and cooling. The GPU can be included on things other than graphics cards, like integrated on the same card as the CPU.
The modern GPU contains a number of microprocessors, called cores. CPUs can have multiple cores, usually around a dozen or so. GPUs have hundreds. Each multiprocessor has a shared memory block and registers. The overall GPU has its own memory plus device memory from the board it’s attached to.
You may have a machine with what’s called an integrated GPU. This means you don’t have graphics card, just the GPU. The GPU processors are on the same card as the CPU for greater efficiency, though usually with a sacrifice of performance. You can add a discrete graphics card to a system with an integrated GPU and then decide in the OS which one to use.
A discrete GPU is the traditional GPU, that operates separately from the CPU. Discrete GPUs that handle graphics usually have their own graphics card. For other tasks the GPU may be on a different kind of card – like a special purpose one for cryptocurrency or AI purposes, or slot right into the motherboard.
So how did we get from just a CPU to needing a GPU?
Before the GPU there was the graphic controller. It let the CPU do most of the processing, and just coordinated what lights on the display to turn on and off. But it was too hard to do 3D with that kind of system. Work on 3D imaging experimented with single processors controlling single pixels in order to combine pixels in a short amount of time and render graphics that appeared 3D. Out of this effort came the GPU.
Arcade systems were the earliest examples. They used specialized video chips that composted data as the display was sent to the monitor. These became more sophisticated as time went on. Namco’s Galaxian used special graphics hardware in 1979 that supported RGB color, multi-colored graphics sprites and tile map backgrounds. Several other arcade companies besides Namco started using the Galaxian hardware.
The first implementation of a graphics display processor as its own integrated circuit chip came from NEC in the 1980s. It supported 1024 x 1024 resolution and was used on multiple graphics cards including the Intel’s first GPU, the 82720.
A few other notable GPUs came out before we got to the first modern discrete GPUs in the 1990s.
Hitachi had the first CMOS graphics processor for PCs with up to 4K resolution in monochrome,
The 1985 Commodore Amiga had a custom graphics chip and a coprocessor capable of manipulating graphics hardware registers. Texas Instruments released the first fully programmable graphics processor in 1986, the TMS34010. That eventually became the TIGA Windows accelerator card.
But a watershed came in 1987. IBM released its 8514 graphics system for PC compatibles. It also introduced Video Graphics Array, aka VGA with a max resolution of 640 x 480. NEC followed in 1988 with the creation of the Video Electronics Standards Association or VESA which developed Super VGA or S-VGA with up to 800 x 600 pixels.
And in 1991 S3 Graphics introduced the S3 86C911 which added 2D acceleration support. 2D accelerators quickly pushed general-purpose graphics coprocessors out of the market.
Sony coined the term Graphics Processing Unit, or GPU in 1994, referring to the 32-bit graphics processor from Toshiba in the original PlayStation.
Arcade systems began developing 3D graphics systems and there were several attempts in the mid-1990s to bring that workstations and home computers. Fujitsu took some of its work for Sega’s Model 2 arcade system into a single integrated circuit for home computers in 1995. The Fujitsu Pinolite, the first 3D processor for home computers was released in 1997. Mitsubishi released the first GPU capable of transformation and lighting for workstations in 1997.
Home computers usually had access to 3D graphics through 2D accelerators that tried to add on separate 3D functions, like the S3 ViRGE , ATI Rage and Matrox Mystique. True 3D graphics were possible with a discrete board but those lacked a 2D interface, such as Power VR and 3dfx Voodoo.
Renditions Verite chipsets were among the first to integrate 2d acceleration and 3D functions on one chip.
But the first of what we would consider modern GPUs in the 1990s combined the graphics controller with a rendering engine and lighting engine on a programmable chip that could work independent of the CPU. That off-loaded processing which sped up the CPU and thus the entire machine when graphics-intensive work was happening. It improved the performance of design programs, like AutoCAD as well as video game graphics rendering.
Fujitsu developed one called the “Thriller Conspiracy” project but never made it to market. Nvidia was the first to bring it to consumers with the GeForce 256 GPU also known as the NV10 in 1999. Nvidia called it the “world’s first graphics processing unit.”
Nvidia continued to lead from there, producing the first chip capable of programmable shading, called the GeForce 3, used in the original Xbox.
In 2007, Nvida released CUDA, a software layer that made parallel processing generally available on the GPU. That meant you could do other things besides just the graphics the GPU was designed for. Eventually that led to alternative uses like cryptocurrency mining and deep learning model processing among others. Anything that required a large amount of processing power with a narrowly-defined outcome.
There’s lots more to GPUs including Ray-tracing video acceleration and more. But this should give you a good sense of what a GPU actually is and what makes it different from a CPU. In other words, I hope you know a little more about GPUs.

Episode transcript:
You’ve been at sea for days and the clouds have covered the stars. Your sextant is of little use. You think you know where you are, but you really need to be sure. Especially since the clouds mean a storm and you want to turn away from that storm but when you turn you want to know where you are.
That’s when Bart has a brilliant idea. Since we knew where we were before the clouds rolled in, why not measure our speed. As long as we know which way we turn and when, if we know how fast we’re going we can calculate where we are on the map.
That’s great Bart but how are you going to measure our speed?
Math! Says Bart the nerd. We drop something overboard that’s likely to float in one place, something light. Then we measure how fast it disappears behind us. That can tell us our speed.
That tree branch there will do. Drop it in from the prow and count how long it takes to pass the stern.
“By George, Bart. We’re saved”, you say in Portuguese. All because you threw that log in the ocean.
Let’s help you know a little more about the term Log in.
A login is a process of authenticating yourself as a user of a computer system. Most common these days on websites and apps.
You probably logged in to multiple systems just today. But why is it called log in? And what does it have to do with a log? Are trees involved? And is it one word or two?
I’ll answer that last one first since it’s easiest. One word login if you’re using it as a noun. When you’re using it as a verb it’s two so you say you can log in to something as two words. But as a noun login as all one word.
Now as to why the term is called login at all, it starts simple but can get very complex and lost in the mists of the ocean. Literally.
Login became common with the time sharing computer systems of the 1960s. Because they were time sharing they needed to keep track of what users are using the system and for how long. To do that the systems created a log. The log file listed who was actively using the system when and when they stopped using it. When you started using the system, your use got logged so you were asked to log in. Record your usage in the log. And when you were done, you logged out.
So far so good. But why then is the record called a log at all?
Well there are loads of examples of logs before computer logs. Logbooks are used in all kinds of record keeping and accounting and such. But if you trace it back, the earliest usage its aboard ocean-going ships.
Sailors used a chip log to measure distances traveled at sea and recorded those distances in the ship’s log. Side note, when you sign in to a computer system it derives from the same thing as sailors would sign log books to attest to who recorded them.
So now we finally get to why the word log came into this at all. The chip log was made of wood. Sailors tied a rope to a wooden board – aka the log. The rope – also called the log line- was tied into knots at regular intervals.
You toss the log overboard and it will mostly float in place as the boat moves away, pulling the rope along with it. As the rope plays out, you count how many knots passed through your hands in a given amount of time. That told you speed of the boat and is the origin of the term “knots” as a measure of ship speed.
The first chip log didn’t even have the rope. Supposedly in the late 1400s, a Portuguese sailor named Bartolomeu Crescêncio invented the idea of throwing an object overboard from the front of a ship and using a sandglass to measure how fast it took it to get to the back of the ship in order to measure speed. This is known as a Dutchman’s Log, despite it being attributed to a Portuguese sailor.
Later sailors added the rope and eventually the knots.
However it was measured though, the speed was recorded regularly, perhaps every half hour in the log book. You could then use that along with other recordings of direction to determine where you are on a map.
The first recorded usage of log-book comes from 1689.
So we have the log on ships and the log book to record what the log told you. The Log Lady would love this. Then other places borrowed the idea of a log book to record things like people entering the castle out what have you. Then accounting logging expenses and such and eventually you get to computer systems logging users.
The earliest recorded use of “log in” to obtain access to computer comes in the 1963 “Compatible Time-Sharing System” at the MIT Computation Center.
The manual read “To contrast with batch-computing techniques, it is informative to summarize a typical time-sharing usage. A user has written a subprogram in a compiler language and wishes to incorporate it into his set of programs already developed and kept in the central disk file. After sitting down at a console, he first gives a login command to identify himself.”
CTSS began operation in 1961 and is often considered the first time-sharing system that shared users and would need a log of users. So Log in might have been used as early as 1961 or even 1959 as the CTSS was being planned.
So there you go! Yet another nautical term sneaking into our computer lexicon. Log it right there next to port, loop hole, above board, cut and run and more.
In other words, I hope you know a little more about the origins of log in.

Passkeys use something called public key cryptography. They have your public key. And because it’s public, it doesn’t matter if anyone gets it. That public key and your private key combine to validate who you are.
But how does that work? Wouldn’t they have to know something besides the public key that’s unique to you? No. That’s the brilliance of it.

Episode transcript:
Internet security. It’s bad. Data breaches are constant, and peoples passwords are sold on the internet like cherries from a roadside cart.
Some of that is because of passwords. We rely on humans to pick passwords and they aren’t so good at it.
We need to get past passwords. Passkeys are one of the most promising ways to do this. We have a whole episode about how they work, but in short, you keep the key on your device and only use it when you need to log in. That way you don’t have to remember a password, meaning you won’t pick an easy one to guess, and more importantly the company you’re logging into doesn’t have your password, or anyone’s, so it’s not a big juicy target for attackers.
But wait, you may say? How does that work? Passkeys use something called public key cryptography. They have your public key. And because it’s public, it doesn’t matter if anyone gets it. That public key and your private key combine to validate who you are.
But how does that work? Wouldn’t they have to know something besides the public key that’s unique to you? No. That’s the brilliance of it.
So let’s help you Know a Little more about Public Key Cryptography
Public key cryptography is a system to make it easy to prove who you are with whomever you want. Public keys can be given out to anyone without risk. And as long as only you have your private, only you can use those public keys to prove who you are.
OK, but how is it not risky to give everyone your public key?
Those of you who are experts in security or security researchers don’t cringe too much at this, I’m going to take some shortcuts in this explanation in order to make it easy to understand for those of us who don’t know anything about encryption.
Don’t get too hung up on the word key either. A key, public or private, is just a number. The private key needs to be complex enough- read long- not to be easily guessed, even by a powerful computer. You don’t have to memorize it either, it’s just a file.
Your public key is also just a file made up mostly of a really complex number. Not so people can’t guess it in this case, but to make the cryptography strong when you use it.
If I have your public key I can encrypt something I send to you, I can read something encrypted by you and can confirm that something was created by you.
That’s all made possible by the combination of the public key associated with you and the private keys each of us keep secret.
One of the first questions I had when trying to understand this was how someone could decrypt something from me without having my private key that I used to encrypt it.
Certainly, I thought, I’d have to give the private key to the other person. The actual way this works involves a lot of math so let’s use a metaphor of an actual physical key and a padlock.
I don’t know who came up with this metaphor first, it wasn’t me, but it’s a great one.
First imagine a typical padlock but instead of the usual locked or unlocked position it has a third position which is also locked. Think of it like this. You have the key in the lock straight up and that’s unlocked. If you can turn it to the left it would be locked. OR you could turn it to the right and be locked.
So left or right are locked. Middle is unlocked.
But the trick is you have two keys that work in the padlock. One key can only turn to the left. The other key can only turn to the right.
Now let’s say you make a bunch of copies of the key that turns the lock to the right and you just give them away. You don’t even care if you drop some for other people to pick up.
Anybody with that key could take my padlock from the locked left position or the unlocked middle position and lock it. But they can’t turn it back from that right locked position and they can’t lock it to the left.
If that’s hard to picture let me give you an example.
Look, you’ve got my public key, the one that goes to the right, and I’ve got my key that goes to the left. So here’s what we’re gonna do. I’m gonna send you an unlocked padlock for you to send me an encrypted message. The padlock is the Public Key platform we’re using. Like Passkeys for example. You put your message in a box. You close the box and latch it shut with a padlock on it. Then you take my public key, which again goes to the right and you put that key in the padlock, and you turn it to the right from unlocked to locked.
And here’s the thing, remember, you can’t go to the left with that public key. So now even you can’t unlock it. You just locked it. You can’t even unlock it yourself. That’s why it’s safe to give everybody the public key. It can only go one direction. You send that padlock box to me. I’ve got my private key, the only copy of the key that can go to the left. And so I’m able to unlock it and I’m the only one. If someone in the middle grabs that padlocked box. What can they do? Unless they have my private key, nothing.
I mean sure in real life they could pick the lock but metaphorically this is a lock that has been made very difficult to pick.
How do we do that with the real cryptography?
Public key cryptography uses numbers not actual keys and locks. Now you may reasonably say that numbers can be guessed especially by powerful computers that can just roll through billions of guesses in a few minutes.
We’re dangerously close to having to use actual math again, so let’s use another metaphor.
May I introduce you to the classic players of the cryptography metaphor stage, Alice, Bob, and Eve.
They have now shared information in public in front of Eve, the platform number two and their two public keys, 8 and 16. And used that to share a private number, 4096, that only they know. That private number could be the key to unlock some more traditional encryption and unlock messages.
Now you might be sitting here thinking oh, well hold on, if Eve knows it’s two, and Eve sees eight and 16, it’s not gonna take very long to figure it out with some simple math. And that is exactly the key to understanding public encryption. When you hear about weakened encryption weakened keys, it means that Eve got better at figuring things out. So of course, in our very weak example, Eve can sit there and go, Okay, well, I know two is the base. And I saw that Alice sent eight to Bob. So let me come, let me compute this. Two times two is four, four times two is eight, aha, I’ve computed that Alice’s secret number is three.
But Eve wasn’t able to just look at eight and immediately do that. She had to do the math in her head. In other words, she had to compute it. Make that math a lot harder than our example and it becomes a lot harder for Eve to figure it out.
The strength of public key cryptography relies entirely on how difficult that mathematical factor is. Now you can get into all kinds of things about the elliptic curve and factoring of primes. If you want to know how they actually create these numbers, but the principle is the same, which is, you create a system based on math, that the other person can come up with so that you’re only exchanging these public numbers that then Eve the person in the middle, or the computer Eve is using, would have to spend a long time factoring to guess. With strong encryption that time should equal thousands of years if not more.
That’s one of the reasons you’ll hear security people often say that there is no such thing as uncrackable encryption, it’s just a matter of time, because it is all math. What you’re trying to do is come up with an algorithm that is sufficiently complex, that the amount of time it will take to crack it makes it worthless to try.
If it’s going to take me to the heat death of the universe to factor out the number, that’s pretty strong encryption. Of course, as computers get more powerful as we do things like add in natural random number generators, from quantum sources, suddenly, things get different.
But as computers get better at solving complex math they also get better at creating complex math. So it stays at parity.
Now granted, these are overly simplistic models. And there’s lots of shortcuts I took to explain them, that when you get into RSA encryption, diffie Hellman 256 bit encryption, there are caveats and things you have to know to make it work in real life. But the fundamental principle is there, which is taking a piece of math and using it to create a number that you can give someone publicly that they can then use to create a key that only the two of you know.
I hope this helps you understand the concept of encryption a little better
In other words I hope now you know a little more about Public Key Cryptography.

Episode transcript:
OpenAI is BIG in the news these days what with ChatGPT, GPT-4, its partnership with Microsoft and mounting criticisms from multiple corners.
You may have heard it’s a non-profit. Or that it used to be and now it’s not. Or that it was supposed to open source things and now it’s not.
There’s a lot of fear uncertainty and doubt being spread about Open AI. So let’s help you straighten out what it is and what it isn’t.
Let’s help you Know a Little More about OpenAI.
OpenAI was founded Dec. 10, 2015 with funding donated by Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, Reid Hoffman, Jessica Livingston, Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Infosys, and YC Research.
It’s other founding members were scientists and engineers, research director Ilya Sutskever, as well as Trevor Blackwell, Vicki Cheung, Andrej Karpathy, Durk Kingma, John Schulman, Pamela Vagata, and Wojciech Zaremba.
Its advisors were Pieter Abbeel, Yoshua Bengio, Alan Kay, Sergey Levine, and Vishal Sikka.
And its co-chairs were Sam Altman and Elon Musk.
OK. That’s a lot of names. I can summarize by saying they mostly make up AI researchers from academia and places like Google and Facebook, or in some cases went on to work at Google and Facebook. Some are still there, some are not and some don’t seem to list their time at OpenAI.
The point being OpenAI made an effort to find to people in the field from all parts of the industry, that were really good at this. And the two driving visionaries of them were the last two names I mentioned. Sam Altman and Elon Musk. We could spend a lot of time talking about Reid Hoffman and Peter Thiel and their ties to Musk being former PayPal folks. And Greg Brockman is an interesting guy from North Dakota and joined Stripe as a founding engineer in 2010 and became CTO there in 2013. He was the first CTO at OpenAI and is now its President.
But I want to focus on Musk and Altman.
Elon Musk you probably know. Born in South Africa, founder of the first federally-insured online bank X.com which in 2000, merged with Confinity, makers of PayPal. Oh right. You might know him more for companies he invested in and bought like Tesla and Twitter. Or companies he founded later like SpaceX.
You might know less about Altman. Born in St. Louis. Went high school at Burroghs out in Ladue. Founded the social networking app Loopt in 2005 and sold it for $43.4 million in 2012. He was then president of Y Combinator in 2014. And he was the CEO of Reddit for 8 days in 2014 between Yishan Wong and the return of Steve Huffman.
Why these two? Well Altman is CEO of OpenAI. And Musk? He is the magnet and Altman’s the steel. [Brief Walter Egan music?]]
Let me explain, While CEO of Y Combinator, Altman began having conversations with Musk, sometimes recorded for the public, about AI. They both shared a concern that it was expanding too rapidly and companies in charge of it weren’t paying enough attention to the risks and to responsible development. They both believed AI could be one of the greatest benefits to humanity but also one of its greatest threats.
They weren’t the only ones thinking along these lines so they gathered together some like-minded folks I mentioned earlier. People concerned with ethics and responsibility. And from the beginning it leaned toward idealism.
OpenAI Incorporated was founded as, and still is, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. From its beginning it reflected the concerns of Musk and Altman, writing on its website “It’s hard to fathom how much human-level AI could benefit society, and it’s equally hard to imagine how much it could damage society if built or used incorrectly.” OpenAI said it wanted to “to advance digital intelligence in the way that is most likely to benefit humanity as a whole, unconstrained by a need to generate financial return.” It took $1 billion in investment and said it expected to only need to spend a small amount of that over the next few years.
But it had to spend more than it anticipated. AI researchers are paid a lot. OpenAI persuaded talent on its mission, its ethics and responsibility, paying better than nonprofits usually did, but less than Facebook or Google. Founding engineer Zaremba told Wired he turned down offers two three times his market value to work at Open AI.
So the people weren’t cheap. Also the cloud computing wasn’t cheap. Reuters reported that OpenAI spent $7.9 million about 25% of its budget on cloud computing in 2017.
If they wanted to make more progress they needed money to attract top talent and to be able to run more complex experiments.
So you can imagine that after the first few years, OpenAI is starting to wonder about that non-profit status. It’s got to make some hard decisions about all that openness too. I mean they’ve done some impressive things training video game bots with OpenAI Gym and Universal, but is that going to move the needle. They’re the ones doing this responsibly, but what does that matter if the big companies stay so far out in front. If they really want to advance AI, if they really want to be the ones protecting humanity and pushing for responsible development, they’d need more, right? So how do you do that and stay true to your core principles?
This was clearly important for Musk. Not long before the founding of OpenAI, he had told students at MIT that AI was humanity’s biggest threat.
So what happened next was surprising if not shocking. So why did it get downplayed?
On February 20, 2018 Elon Musk announced he was leaving the board of Open AI. In a blog post announcing new donors to the non-profit, Open AI wrote, “Additionally, Elon Musk will depart the OpenAI Board but will continue to donate and advise the organization. As Tesla continues to become more focused on AI, this will eliminate a potential future conflict for Elon.”
Well OK. He still believes in the mission, but he’s got his own AI at Tesla to develop so he probably shouldn’t be a director at a competitor, even if it is a nonprofit one. I mean it’s no hard feelings right? Musk even spoke to OpenAI employees to explain that conflict of interest before he left.
But the employees didn’t really seem to buy it. And the line announcing it, was buried at the end of a long first paragraph in a three paragraph post about other funders. Seems like a bigger deal than that no?
Well, maybe it was.
You see, everybody had a solution for that problem OpenAI had of falling behind. Musk’s solution was himself. Put me in charge! Let Musk run the show and he’d catch up. Just look at what he did to the auto industry right?
You may have heard that Musk can be a little — enthusiastic. Maybe rubs people the wrong way sometimes. That seems to have been the case with Open AI’s other founders. Maybe they were also annoyed that Tesla had taken one of those founding engineers- Karpathy. The kind of engineer they were having a hard time convincing to leave higher paying jobs to get. So it’s not too surprising in retrospect that rather than putting Musk in charge, the board moved Altman into the role of President.
And Musk leaving had another effect. According to Semafor, he was supposed to keep contributing money to OpenAI, but he didn’t. That was about $1 billion that the company was expecting to get that it no longer had. At a time when it was scraping to make the funding meet its ambitions.
And right then Google Brain released its “transformer” model. The T in GPT by the way. It was a huge leap forward for AI models, but required a lot more data to train, meaning a lot more computer power, meaning a lot more cost. A cost Google, which ran its own cloud services, could afford to pay. OpenAI, which paid Google for cloud services, could not. If it didn’t want to see Google seriously outdistance it, OpenAI needed to do something.
It started by releasing a new charter in April 2018. It still “committed to avoid enabling uses of AI or AGI that harm humanity or unduly concentrate power,” and said that its “primary fiduciary duty is to humanity.” But now it also said, “We anticipate needing to marshal substantial resources to fulfill our mission, but will always diligently act to minimize conflicts of interest among our employees and stakeholders that could compromise broad benefit.”
A more public hint that things were changing was the announcement of GPT-2 on February 14, 2019. OpenAI’s Valentine’s Day gift was to not open source this release as it had for its previous releases. GPT-2 could take prompts and complete them. So give it a headline it could write the rest of the article. OpenAI justified the less open release by citing the risk that the tool could be used maliciously. Though a public interface was released. And eventually the full code was released in November.
But then it took a Serious step. On March 11, 2019 OpenAI pulled a move from Mozilla’s playbook. Mozilla had operated for decades as a non-profit that fully owned a for-profit subsidiary. This allowed it to make money on Firefox and attract talent and pay for development.
OpenAI was going to do a similar thing. OpenAI Incorporated, the non-profit, would form OpenAI Limited Partnership, a for-profit company, wholly controlled by OpenAI Inc. But OpenAI LP would be profit capped. Investors would receive up to 100 times their investment, and excess profits would go to the nonprofit OpenAI Inc. To assuage concerns about the move, Altman, the CEO of the new for profit company, took no equity in it.
So they had their solution. Sell non-controlling shares in the for profit company. Except nobody was buying. It was profit capped and the CEO didn’t even want a single share? Not for me.
Well, unless you’re Satya Nadella. In September 2019 OpenAI got its first big investment bite. Microsoft agreed to invest $1 billion, a nice replacement for the lost Musk donations. Not only would it invest but it had even better cloud resources than Google, so it would make its vast Azure infrastructure available. Money to pay talent AND bargain cloud computing. And Microsoft gets to become a bigger player in AI.
Microsoft and OpenAI built a supercomputer to handle the massive amount of data needed to train Large Language Models.
OpenAI was back in the race.
In January 2021, OpenAI released DALL-E a multimodal model that could create images based on a text description.
In August 2021 it launched Codex, which translates natural language to code, and powers Microsoft’s GitHub CoPilot feature.
And in November 2022 DALL-E 2 captured imaginations with much better performance and spawned multiple imitators like Craiyon and Midjourney.
But of the course the big leap also came with the launch of ChatGPT that same month. For OpenAI it was just the latest public demonstration of what its Large Language Model could do. Nobody got that excited when it launched DialoGPT in 2019. Why would this time be any different? Well. It was. But for whatever reason it captured the public imagination. Suddenly OpenAI wasn’t just staying in the race. It was leading it.
Google issued a code red. Microsoft and Google got into an AI announcement competition.
Altman was triumphant.
Musk was — not.
In December 2022, Twitter- now owned by Musk, pulled OpenAI’s access to Twitter data. Musk began tweeting criticisms of OpenAI.
On February 15, 2023, he sang his old 2015-era tune again to attendees at the World Government Summit in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, “One of the biggest risks to the future of civilization is AI.”
On February 27, 2023, The Information wrote that Musk was recruiting engineers and scientists to form a lab to compete with OpenAI.
And on Wednesday March 29 signed an open letter put out by a think tank he funded calling for all companies to pause their research into the next version of AI for 6 months in order to create a safety scheme.
Oh and the week before that, Shivon Zillis, the mother of Musk’s twins, resigned from the OpenAI board.
Altman on the other hand, talking on Lex Friedman’s podcast on March 25, 2023 described Musk as one of his heroes and said, “I believe he is, understandably so, really stressed about AGI safety.” [[find podcast sound for this?]]
So there you have it. OpenAI is a nonprofit AND a for profit company. It was co-founded by Elon Musk, but that’s not nearly the whole story. And whether it has remained true to the values from its founding or whether it engenders the fears it was formed to address. I’ll leave that up to you.
I just hope you Know a Little More about OpenAI.
We look at a new LLM training technique called semantic decoder where data from scans of a person’s brain activity are fed into the model. As T-Mobile suffers another data breach involving hundreds of customer’s information including social security numbers, pin codes and address we ask why isn’t T-Mobile’s reputation taking a long lasting hit? And Google accounts now support passkeys to replace password and 2FA logins.

Episode transcript:
You pick up your phone and there’s no service. You’re not getting text messages. And shortly you notice somebody is posting on your Facebook account. And you can’t log in anymore.
You’ve been SIM swapped.
You may have heard that using text messages as a second factor or 2FA code to protect your logins is less secure than other forms like apps or keys.
You may even know this is because of something called SIM Swapping.
But I bet a lot of you have the same question Mike has. Mike emailed Daily Tech News Show and asked “I hear y’all talk about how 2FA via SMS (text messages) is bad because of SIM Swapping. …but what is SIM Swapping. It sounds like if my SIM was swapped then my phone would stop working – I wouldn’t be getting my messages or be able to make phone calls. Would ‘SIM Cloning’ be a better term? Why is SIM swapping/cloning even allowed by the carriers? Are there any legitimate uses/functions to swapping/cloning?”
You understand more than you know Mike.
Let’s help you know a little more about SIM swapping.
The only legitimate SIM swapping would be if you pull out a SIM card from your phone and put in a new one yourself. The SIM in SIM card stands for Subscriber Identity Module. It’s a way of identifying what account is associated with the phone. Since the 1990s it’s existed as various sizes of little plastic cards with a chip on one end. You insert it in a SIM slot in your phone and the phone uses that information to identify you on the network. That way your phone gets calls and text messages meant for your number. And the data service you pay for is delivered.
Why is this helpful? Well if a phone is locked to a certain provider it’s not. The cell phone provider will only let you use the SIM it wants you to.
However if your phone is unlocked, you can put whatever SIM in it you want. As long as that SIM is authorized on the network, the phone will use it to get your calls and texts. So if you pull your T-Mobile SIM out of an unlocked iPhone and put it in an unlocked Samsung Galaxy S23, the S23 will get calls and texts that you used to get on the iPhone. And you can put it back in the iPhone and carry on as well.
Some phones even have dual SIM slots so you can switch between two providers without having to remove the SIM cards. Handy for people who travel between regions with different providers.
But none of this is what people mean when they say SIM swapping.
Sim Swapping is generally used to apply to malicious activity. You may hear it called simjacking, or SIM splitting. But it’s essentially the idea of an attacker getting the phone carrier to swap your account to a new SIM card that the attacker owns.
You may have done a legitimate form of this kind of SIM swap when you activated a new phone. Unless you moved the SIM card from your old phone to a new phone, you probably went through some kind of process, whether in a store, over the phone or even just over the internet- to tell the carrier that the SIM card in the new phone should be associated with your account not the one in the old phone. You may not have realized that’s what you were doing, but as soon as your phone number started working on the new phone, the SIM had been swapped. Your new SIM card was swapped into the database in place of the old one. The old phone no longer works with your number.
Malicious SIM swapping does this without your approval.
To do it they have to make a phone call. Because when you set up a new phone, you usually have the old phone nearby as you switch. A malicious actor wants to change the SIM card on your account without your knowledge.
Going into a store could work but it’s a little riskier since they have to show their face. So most SIM swapping is done with a call.
On the call the carrier will ask them things about you. To prepare for the call the attacker will collect as much personal info about you as possible. Usually a phishing attack is used on the target. They might send an email that appears to be from your phone company asking you to confirm account info, possibly by logging in. Any link in that email would be to a site they control that can capture your info when you log in. That’s just one example. But it’s a major reason why you should not trust every link in an email and never email person info.
It’s not the only method though. An attacker might be able to find the personal info they need for sale. If your info was available in a data breach they may be able to get what they need without phishing you.
Whatever method they use they’re trying to gather as much info as they can, birthday, passwords, account numbers, street you grew up on, whatever they can. They’ll need it for the next step.
Once they have the info they call the phone company and say they need to move their account to a new SIM card. This is not itself a suspicious request. People legitimately do it all the time. Maybe they lost their SIM card somehow while swapping it between phones. Maybe they bought a used phone. These aren’t super common reasons but they’re common enough — that carriers need to be able to support them– when legitimate.
So the carriers try to ask you questions only you would know the answer to in order to verify your identity. They could just push a message to your existing phone right? But what if that’s why you’re swapping the SIM. Maybe the phone and the old SIM card are damaged.
Whatever the case, the attacker will pretend they’re a legitimate users who can’t use any of those methods. But they will use what info they collected about you to answer the questions carriers throw at them to convince them they are you. If they have enough info they may be able to answer all of them. And if they do, they can successfully get the carrier to transfer the account to the SIM they have. Once they do that they can put that SIM in a phone they have and get access to your calls and text messages.
And once they have that access they can try logging into your accounts. If they have your passwords and the account is protected by text message codes, they’ll get the codes and be able to get into your accounts. They can also use the phone number for voice or text account recovery on many accounts, to take control that way.
It’s possible for the attackers to add a device instead of replace yours, but they’re likely to get caught faster as you’ll see all the text message codes too. So more often than not they will replace your device. Your device will suddenly stop working. Most people will assume it’s a bug or a glitch. But even if you assume it’s a SIM swap you’ll have to visit the carrier in person and convince them of that. And even in a small amount of time the attackers can gain a lot of access.
You may wonder why carriers don’t do more to stop Sim Swaps. The problem is that most people really aren’t targets and the carriers calculate, reasonably, they would inconvenience a large amount of people for no reason.
The FCC is drafting rules to prevent SIM swapping in the US. And some carriers now require SMS verification or verification by two employees that you are who you say you are before a SIM is transferred.
Most carriers do offer preventative measures you can choose to enact to help prevent SIM swaps.
You can lock your phone number to a SIM. This can be called Port Freeze or Number Lock. Port freeze because you can’t port a number to a new phone. Number lock because the number is locked to a SIM card. It means you cannot move your number to another SIM card. You can melt the freeze or unlock the number with either PIN or by visiting a store and showing ID.
Most carriers let you sign up for alerts to send you anytime a phone number or SIM card is changed. You should turn those on.
Beyond that you should do the things you would usually do to protect your personal info.
Don’t click on links from people you don’t know. Don’t offer personal info over email unless you are VERY certain of who you’re sending it to. Phone carriers and banks will never ask for sensitive info over email. Protect your account with authentication apps or security keys. If you protect your account wit a second factor over text message, well it won’t protect you from SIM swapping. But if you’re using an authenticator app– and not text messaging too- just the authenticator app, then SIM swapping won’t allow an attacker to get into that account.
So yes Michael SIM swapping does shut your phone off but that’s not protection against the SIM swapping. These attackers can work fast.
Hope that answers your question. In other words, I hope you Know a little More about SIM swapping.
We further explore the fear people have over generative AI tools by taking a look at what AI firms are doing to stoke those fears. While Netflix saw growth in its North American subscriptions for its service the number abroad has dropped. Is it temporary or signs of a more concerning problem? And Microsoft still hopes it can convince the UK Competition and Markets Authority to allow the company to acquire Blizzard Activision.

Could an open source alternative finally spell the end of Twitter’s short-form bulletin board style postings? It’s been tried before, but now there’s perhaps the best contender for the Twitter throne yet: Mastadon.

Episode transcript:
Twitter.
“This website.”
A platform that people love to hate.
A platform people love to yell “I’m leaving.”
But they always come back.
They left for Pownce. And they came back. And Pownce died.
They left for Plurk. And they came back. And Plurk went niche.
They left to start whole new protocols like Diaspora and Identica.
But every time they fly to an alternative, they also fly back.
Except. Maybe this time? Is this the exception?
Because this isn’t the story of Twitter. This is the story of a place that has almost all the ingredients to keep the Twitter exodus.
Let’s help you know a little more about Mastodon.
It’s March 2007. The SXSW Interactive festival in Austin, Texas is filled with Web 2.0 pitches and internet stars. But one website is standing out. Twitter, with a giant screen in the convention center showing “tweets” as they happen in real time, steals the spotlight.
That feels like the last time people unanimously loved Twitter.
In 2009 a group calling itself the “Iranian Cyber Army” hacks Twitter through a DNS exploit. It won’t be the last time Twitter gets hacked. But it will cause one of the first big rounds of questions about whether Twitter is safe. It won’t be the last time that happens either.
In 2011. Twitter posts are credited with fueling uprisings in the Middle East known as the “Arab Spring” BUT it also launches the “Quick Bar”, a floating bar at the top of the iOS app which was withdrawn after loud user complaints.
Then there was #gamergate and the vitriolic arguments and harassment about what was true journalism and who were fake gamers. That led to calls for better Twitter moderation.
You get the idea. Controversies happen frequently on Twitter and when they do, users storm off to try an alternative.
And in 2016, the US presidential election made every one of those controversies look mild. A month out from election day, a European developer decided to be the latest to try to make yet another Twitter alternative. Maybe this would be the one.
Mastodon launched October 5, 2016 Developer Eugen Rochko posted on Hacker News, “Show HN: A new decentralized microblogging platform” It linked to a Github page.
There you could find the basic code of yet another decentralized social network. It stood out from previous attempts in a couple ways. First, it was truly open source, not a proprietary service pretending to be decentralized. Anybody could set up a Mastodon server. And second, it was polished. It looked like a slick implementation of Tweetdeck.
Developers in general were complimentary and several jumped in to help work on the project. Since anybody could set up a Mastodon server, lots of them did, showing that it could work as a truly federated and decentralized platform.
You just needed people to use it.
It simmered away with people wandering in as they heard about it in various corners of the internet. But that calm period changed. In March 2017.
The rancor on Twitter had been snowballing since the election of President Trump. It seems like background noise now, but at the time it was overwhelming. People got angry on Twitter before but not in the numbers and not with this kind of sustained rage. Almost every user on the platform was picking a side and firing shots at the other.
That may explain why a seemingly innocuous change began another exodus.
On March 30th, Twitter announced that the names of people you are replying to would not count against the character count, and if you replied to more than one person, only the first person’s name would show with the rest available with a click.
Minor stuff right. WRONG
With everyone angrily replying to each other and laser-focused on shaming their opponents by name, this was seen as hiding important information! In reality, this was the straw that broke the camel’s ability to stay on Twitter.
So when big names like IT Crowd creator Graham Lineman (aka Glinner) and Community and Rick and Morty creator Dan Harmon started accounts on Mastodon, a wave began. Motherboard’s Sarah Jeong had been working on an article about the little platform and found herself documenting a mass migration.
Mastodon users jumped 70% in 48 hours and Rochko met his $800 a month Patreon goal. Jeong posted her Motherboard article on April 4th. Mashable’s Jack Morse posted the same day with the title “Bye, Twitter. All the cool kids are migrating to Mastodon.” A few days later, April 7, Quartz and The Verge both had published guides on how to use Mastodon.
By April 9, 2017 Mastodon had 129,302 accounts. Nothing compared to Twitter’s hundreds of millions, but a hockey stick-like growth that caught people’s attention.
Rochko’s main instance, Mastodon.social had to lock registrations to encourage new users to sign up on one of the other 1,200 or so servers.
Mastodon was having its moment. Like Pownce, and Plurk and identi.ca and Diaspora before it.
And almost as quickly as it began. It ended.
The pattern held. The Twitter faithful got mad. The Twitter faithful fled. The Twitter faithful realized that they still liked yelling on Twitter and returned.
By May 22, the headline on the Verge was “What happened to Mastodon after its moment in the spotlight?”
Thankfully for Rochko and friends the story was more Plurk than Pownce. The flood had stopped but there was still growth.
The Verge’s Megan Farokh-manesh described it as a grab bag of “personal observations, video games, politics, comics, and a mix of users speaking in French, Japanese, Spanish, and more.”
In fact it was now a cozy community. Slightly bigger than it had been a few months before but the better for it. The Twitter masses had gone.
For now.
Let’s take a minute to look at how Mastodon works. Because it’s not exactly a Twitter clone. And it points out some of the reasons Mastodon is seen as a good Twitter alternative, and also what its actual road blocks are to becoming massively popular.
Mastodon’s code is issued under the AGPLv3 open source license built on the W3C ActivityPub standard. That’s a standard used not just by Mastodon but other federated services like PeerTube for video, Pixelfed for images and Friendica, another social networking alternative.
But the point here is Mastodon is standards compliant. ActivityPub is a World Wide Web Consortium standard, like HTML.
Mastodon’s open source code is free and the license does not allow anyone to reverse that. It is administered by a German nonprofit called Mastodon which owns the trademark and runs two servers, the original mastodon.social and mastodon.online.
Mastodon describes its federation of servers as the ‘fediverse.’
Basically, anybody can take the code and start a server if they want to maintain it. And those servers can then integrate with other servers in the fediverse as much or as little as they want. Each server will have its own policies and moderation rules. So you can be on a server and see posts on every other server but you can choose a server that plays by rules you’re comfortable with. Want maximal free speech? Find a maximal free speech server. Want strong moderation and crackdowns on offensive speech, choose a server with those kinds of policies. You can still interact with the rest of the fediverse, but with filter levels and other rules that you’re comfortable with.
So for example a Mastodon server can see all the posts in the fediverse, but a particular server may choose to ban a list of swear words. If you sign up on that server you’d see all the posts from the rest of the fediverse unless they had swearing in them. But swearing doesn’t have to be banned everywhere. If you don’t mind seeing swearing you can choose a server that doesn’t block it.
And you can also block server yourself on your own account. Don’t like the policies or perspectives of the people who post on the mastodon server blacklicorice.rocks, you can stop it from ever showing up in your feeds, without needing the server you’re on to block it for everyone.
Of course, most people will pick a server that has policies they agree with, so they don’t have to do a lot of maintenance and blocking. But what if you change your mind. Or pick the wrong server. Or your server changes ITS policies?
This is where another feature of the fediverse comes in handy. You’re not locked into a server. You can try one out and then change your mind and not lose your data.
Mastodon makes it possible to take your follower lists along with you. With Facebook or Twitter that would mean abandoning everything. With Mastodon it just means a couple of export and import clicks. There are one or two steps depending on what you want to keep after you move. If all you want to keep is your followers– so people find you immediately at your new server– you can do that automatically. If you want to keep who YOU follow, as well as mute lists, block lists, bookmarks, domain blocks, you need to export a file with that info and import it when you set up the new account. The point being, it’s not complicated to move from one server to another.
This is also why Mastodon usernames look like email addresses. tom@mastdon.server for example. The first part is the user name and the portion after the at symbol is the server name.
Even with the ability to switch servers, the choice makes it daunting for some people to sign up in the first place. Not just for the simple reason of having to choose, but because the various apps are still developing better ways to make it easy to see what’s available and get signed up.
Whatever server you end up on, you’ll be able to view multiple feeds. And they’re pretty familiar if you’re a Twitter user. Different servers can tweak them a little but usually there’s one for people you follow, one for interactions with your posts, one to see everything on your local server and quite often one called “Federated” which lets you see every post from every server your server interacts with.
A lot of servers also have a feed called Explore which lets you see posts from across the fediverse that are getting a lot of attention. That’s the closest Mastodon gets to a “trending topics” feed.
There are also Direct messages, Favourites and Bookmarks. Favourites let other people know you like something, bookmarks are for you to reference something later whether you “like” it or not. And you can make your own lists.
The standard message posting on Mastodon has a maximum of 500 characters. You can attach an image, run a poll, add a content warning and select a default language that the post is in. Posts were jokingly referred to as Toots in the early days, a play on Tweets and because Mastdon’s logo is a big hairy extinct elephant. While the word toot is still in use, it’s somewhat deprecated.
Posts can also have varying privacy settings. You can let a post be public across the fediverse, private to only your followers, direct between users or even unlisted, so anyone can see it if they know where to look but it won’t be discoverable.
There are some differences from Twitter too.
Search is more limited as well, with most servers only returning searches for user names and hashtags. For example, the Explore feed only follows hashtags, not individual words in posts. And Boosts, the mastodon equivalent of Retweets, do not allow you to add commentary.
One of the downsides of Mastodon’s federated approach is that not every server is as well run as every other. Large popular servers have few problems but niche communities rely on the good graces of small teams or sometimes individuals. There is no monetization built into the platforms so the folks who run servers rely on crowdfunding like donations or Patreons.
So not every server is secure, and things like posting images can become an ethical dilemma if you know each image is increasing the cost of the volunteer who runs your server.
That boils down to two things working against Mastodon’s uptake with the wider populace: ease of use and difficulty of maintenance. Hold that thought though.
The tradeoff is that you get that ability to pick and choose moderation. Something that attracted people to another run at Mastodon in 2022. This time was much bigger.
By October 2022, Mastodon had grown to 300,000 users. A little less than three times what it had during the great yet brief migration of 2017. It wasn’t booming but it wasn’t declining. Just a nice slow growing community of people. A small suburban feel.
Then. On October 27, 2022, Elon Musk closed his long embattled acquisition of Twitter.
It would be an entire separate episode to discuss all the events of Musk’s first few months owning Twitter. Lifting the ban on President Trump, firing executives, firing more people, lifting more bans, launching paid verification, unlaunching paid verification, laying off more people, making decisions by poll. And with each event, the Twitter user did what Twitter users have always done. Flee to try something else.
And there were new platforms to try like Hive and Post and platforms on the comeback trail from decline, like Tumblr. But the biggest by far was a familiar furry trunk.
Mastodon had never gone away. It was never in decline. But it had never grown like this. Between October and November 2022 it grew 800% to 2.5 million. Still much smaller than Twitter’s 350 million plus, but now in the conversation.
The holidays took some of the momentum away though as people paid less attention to whatever wild thing Twitter’s CEO was posting. And after the first of the year, CES diverted the tech world’s attention such that Musk’s antics seemed to engender less panic than they had.
By February, Mastodon users had fallen from the 2.5 million high to 1.4 million.
It looked like an old story. Twitter users angered. Twitter users flee. Twitter users get over it. Twitter users come back. Alternative platform left to pick up the pieces.
Except.
January 19, Twitter changed its API kicking off third-party clients. That left developers of the clients wondering if they shouldn’t make a Mastodon app. The folks who made Tweetbot launched Ivory. The folks who made Aviary, launched Mammoth and even got funding from Mozilla. Suddenly there were easier ways to get started with Mastodon with experienced developers who by all rights should not have been given the opportunity to do this.
And on February 10, Cloudflare, a company who makes its money securing big websites from cyberattacks and downtime, launched Widlebeest. It lets you quickly spin up a Mastodon server that supports ActivityPub and other Fediverse APIs, with the ability to publish, edit, boost, and delete posts. And of course the server will sit behind Cloudflare’s security from denial of service and other attacks. You still needed some tech chops, but it made it a lot easier for someone to get a server up and going and not worry as much about the maintenance and security.
And Fast Company had another point. Maybe Mastodon isn’t following the Twitter alternative pattern at all. Maybe it’s following the Twitter pattern.
In April 2009, two years after launch, Nielsen noted that only 40% of Twitter users still used the service. In February 2011, Forbes noted Twitter’s user base had dropped by 5 million. Even as recent as 2014, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found that 36% of people who joined Twitter said they never used it.
And yet, Twitter, even after all of the outrage– is still going.
Mastodon may or may not be a replacement for Twitter. But it may very well be a new platform in the mix, and possibly could become something totally new and unexpected.
In other words, I hope you Know A little More, about Mastodon.

Episode transcript:
Why is the algorithm showing me Pat Benatar videos?
I can’t search for nuclear war or the algorithm will know.
Well those algorithms are biased. You know that!
Algorithms are a hot topic, especially among those concerned about how information is spread. Social networks like Instagram and TikTok famously use “algorithms” to decide what content to show you. Facial recognition algorithms famously fail, especially if you aren’t light skinned.
But … What is an algorithm anyway? Is it really at fault for all of this? Including the Pat Benatar videos?
Let’s help you Know a Little More, about Algorithms.
Let me tell you a story.
A story has a beginning. A middle. And an end.
Beginning: Mathematicians in ancient Baghdad write multiple books laying the foundation of modern mathematics
Middle: Hundreds of years later one of those author’s name becomes synonymous with operations, and is translated into latin as algorithm.
End: In the twentieth century, algorithms are defined, refined and by the early 21st century, combined, to make systems that can draw pictures, write you a resume and replicate your voice and even video.
That’s the quick story of the algorithm. And algorithms themselves, like stories, have a beginning, the input. A Middle, the operations performed on the input. And an end. The output. They’re simple really. But just like a story can be much more complex than the one I just told, an algorithm can be much more complex as well. And when you combine multiple complex algorithms. You get a whole lot more.
OK OK but what does all that mean right? To explain we may need to start in the middle of the story. With how an algorithm is defined. You know like Captain America: The First Avenger.
A great example of an algorithm is a recipe.
Step one. Boil water
Step two. Place egg in water
Step three wait 8 minutes.
Step four remove egg from water and let cool
Step five peel egg and eat it.
That’s an algorithm for a hard-boiled egg.
But of course algorithms aren’t all linear steps. More complex algorithms can use what are called conditionals – you know, like an If Then situation. This can let it look like it’s making inferences and executing reasoning.
You use conditional algorithms all the time.
Let’s say you’re on vacation and want to go to a grocery store you’ve never been to before and find a can of peas. Because you love peas in this example OK? You need peas. So even though you’ve never been to this grocery store, you know how grocery stores generally work. The grocery store is kind of your operation system. So you employ your personal pea-finding algorithm.
First you look at aisle signs. If an aisle sign says “canned food” you proceed down the aisle and look for cans of peas. Else check next aisle.
This algorithm saves you time. Instead of wandering up and down each aisle looking for canned peas, you skim along the edge of the aisles and quickly get to the right shelf.
Now imagine how a more powerful algorithm can help a computer sort through billions of data points faster than humans could.
There are multiple types of algorithms. The brute force algorithm just tries all possible solutions until it hits on the right one. That would be just walking up and down the aisles.That one is used sometimes because computers can do things faster. So a “brute force” attack to find a password is using that kind of algorithm.
Another one is called Divide and Conquer. You break the problem up into smaller subproblems then combine the solutions to solve the original problem. Processors use this one to great advantage. For our grocery store example this would be good if you need canned peas and fresh carrots and there are two of you on vacation. One handles the carrot search and one handles their pea search. You combine at the register to checkout. Output= peas and carrots.
There are others that don’t fit so nicely into the grocery store format. An encryption algorithm transforms data in a way that only a person who knows how it was transformed can easily revert it back to the original. I guess that means the grocery store is locked?
And there’s also a type called Randomized algorithms where you use a random number at least once along the way to solving a problem. One example of this is the Las Vegas algorithm which will always return a correct result you just don’t know how long it will take. If you’ve ever used QuickSort, you’ve used this kind of algorithm. For the grocery store it would be like walking right to a random aisle and looking up at the signs, hoping you happened to hit the canned foods on the first try.
That might sound like it’s going to take as long or longer to work.
But here’s a way to think about it. You have a line of 100 people and you’re looking for Pat. You can wait as everyone in line walks by you one after the other and eventually you’ll find Pat. But that may take a long time, unless Pat happens to be near the front. Or you can call out line positions at random. “Number 5!” “Number 64” etc. until you find Pat. It may not sound guaranteed that this will be quicker, and it’s not guaranteed, but it does end up being faster in a lot of more complex situations, especially when you can repeat it a lot of times very fast– like a computer does. This is often used in search.
One thing to keep in mind about algorithms is they are meant to be precise. An algorithm is not the same as a heuristic. A heuristic is a shortcut that may or may not give you the exactly correct result. That’s OK when an approximation is good enough.
So let’s say there’s a person walking toward you and you hold out your thumb. If their head appears to be about half the size of your thumbnail, you guess they’re about 200 meters away. That’s not accurate of course, but it may be close enough for what you need to know. And it’s an example of heuristic.
An algorithm on the other hand would want to use more information to come up with a precise measurement. So perhaps taking into account known distances of objects near the walking person, along with any shadows cast etc.
But the key thing in all algorithms is they have an initial input, a set of instruction and an end. It has to terminate after a finite amount of time. It also should give the same output if given the same input.
All right. We have Cap out of the ice. Let’s head back to the 1940s. Or for you non-marvel fans, let’s go back to the beginning of algorithms.
We start in Babylon. 2500 BCE. Birth place of laws and the code of Hammurabi. The most advanced mathematicians in the world have discovered something that will make grade school children wail and gnash teeth centuries into the future. Division! One of the earliest examples of an algorithm.
On to India. 1,000 years BCE. Mathematics is developed that is predominantly what we would now call algorithmic.
Forward 1800 years to the 800s and the Islamic Empire. The most advanced mathematicians the world had yet seen are pushing the discipline close to its modern form. They take Indian number symbols and develop them into the Arabic numerals we use today. One man involved in this is called Al-Kindi. And were this a more accurate world, algorithms might be called Alkindis. He wrote a book called Manuscript on Deciphering Cryptographic Messages, which is credited with creating cryptanalysis – breaking cryptography. He developed frequency analysis, where you look at how often certain symbols occur to help deduce what they may mean. All of these are examples of algorithms.
However, one of his contemporaries, while not developing as much algorithmic math, would leave a stamp on the discipline still felt to this moment. He was called Muḥammad ibn Musā al-Khwārazmi, most often referred to as al-Khwarizmi, which meant he was from Khwarazam, a Persian region, which is now part of Uzbekistan.
He worked in the Abbasid caliphate’s libraries, including the Grand Library of Baghdad and wrote a lot of important mathematical treatises. Even way back then retro things were cool. So 300 years later al-Khwarizmi’s writing becomes all the rage in Europe. His book on Algebra was a particularly huge hit. Those retro math enthusiasts couldn’t get enough of his work, but not all of them wanted to learn to read Arabic, so they translated the books into latin. And when they translated Al-Khwarizimi’s name, they latinized it to Algorizmi. You can see where this is going. Over the centuries his name was used to mean all kinds of related things like decimal number system etc, and by the 1600s it was occasionally being spelled algorithm and by the late 1800s it was being used in its current sense.
There are innumerable strands of history that led to the modern algorithm but I’m going to use a heuristic to narrow in on one of them.
Gottfried Leibniz, the guy who also invented calculus, at the same time as Isaac Newton. Leibniz imagined a machine that could manipulate symbols in order to determine the truth of mathematical statements. You know, a computer. He also realized you’d need some kind of formal language for the symbols in order for it to work. You know, programming. His musings kicked around in mathematical communities for a few centuries.
Then in 1928 David Hilbert picked up Leibniz’s torch. Hilbert posed 23 problems for mathematicians to solve. The second was a “Decision Problem” that Leibniz would have recognized. It asked for an algorithm that could prove whether any mathematical statement.
And then we have a relay race that ends in defining the algorithm,
In 1931, Kurt Gödel demonstrated that certain math questions can be neither proved or disproved. In 1935, Alonzo Church picks up the baton from Gödel and in the process ends up defining what an algorithm should be – something called “effective calculability.” And taking us over the end line in 1936 Alan Turing expands the proof and goes on to use algorithms in his Turing machines, the most famous being the Enigma, which broke German cryptography during World War II.
Thanks to that relay team we have a very good understanding of algorithms. And while there are all kinds of variations, they fall into two big buckets.
An algorithm with a yes or no answer is called a decision procedure because the question is decidable. An algorithm that goes beyond yes or no is called a computation procedure because it can compute the answer.
Is X number prime? That is decidable. It either is or it isn’t.
Long division? That is computable. There’s no yes or no in division, just your quotient and your remainder. And your agony, depending.
So we found our protagonist, the algorithm, at the beginning of this story. We flashed back to its origins in the ancient empires. Now it’s time for our metaphorical Cap to wake up and start asking Nick Fury questions.
For our story the question is:
So is AI an algorithm?
Yes?
Or rather, some kinds of things that are called AI, use algorithms.
For example, machine learning uses algorithms to identify patterns in data and group them into subsets. And other kinds of AI use machine learning. You’ll often hear scientists describe AI as using unstructured data, while machine learning needs structured data. Then you’ll hear other scientists yell at this scientists. Don’t get too caught up in that. Machine Learning uses algorithms to be able to solve a problem it’s been trained to solve. And more advanced AI sometimes uses machine learning to create more complex behavior – like driving a car.
If you’re still confused, think of it this way. There isn’t a “Facebook algorithm” there are hundreds of them.
Credit card fraud detection is an example of this. A set of algorithms processes the date, location and amount of transactions and uses math to determine a range in which variability is normal. If a transaction falls outside that norm it generates an output that can be used to stop the transaction and maybe send you a text message. [[“No I did not buy 200 pound of red vines. I am a confirmed Twizzler person!”]]
As we’ve indicated, Algorithms themselves are deterministic. They each take inputs, perform operations on them and produce outputs. But when you chain them together and use them in the right way, they can exhibit seemingly complex behavior.
For example, let’s consider a machine learning model that recognizes images of cats and dogs. This model consists of several algorithms, including image preprocessing, feature extraction, and classification. Each algorithm takes the output of the previous algorithm and transforms it in some way. The end result is a model that can accurately classify images of cats and dogs.
Also, that last paragraph about cats and dogs was written by ChatGPT when I gave it the paragraph before. Just an example of the kind of complex behavior we’re talking about.
Anyway, back to human written stuff– a key part of the complexity of AI is that the outputs of the algorithms can be used to change the algorithms. This is how AI systems “learn.” It’s the instructions to modify some algorithms and sometimes create new algorithms that causes AI to have the appearance of “intelligence” in the way that an algorithm on its own does not.
This is an important difference when talking about algorithms vs. AI. Even though AI is made up of algorithms. An algorithm can be fully transparent. It has defined steps you can look at (if the programmer lets you) to see how it makes its decisions.
Many types of AI though are a black box. The systems are modifying their code in such a complex way that it isn’t always clear why it created the output it did.
A great example of this is a kind of AI called deep learning. It uses connections of nodes called a neural network. Each node is essentially an algorithm. It takes input and passes output to the next node. As data passes from node to node, the nodes can be altered as a result of each output. This is similar to how our neurons strengthen connections as we think. Hence the name neural network. Deep learning alters these nodes in a way that makes it very good at recognizing patterns. But we only know that it’s doing this and that it works. We don’t see the output between the nodes. We only see the conclusion.
There is an effort to build something called explainable AI, that would let us see how the decisions inside the system are made. This is technically complex and can slow down or limit the effectiveness of the systems. It may also open the systems to manipulation by bad actors. But if it gets good enough, it could help us understand AI better.
In the end though, none of the shortcomings of AI are the fault of the algorithms themselves, which as we all know by now- say it with me– are finite with defined inputs and outputs. Just like our neurons are finite cells with defined synapses that send and received signals from other neurons. Connect enough neurons together and you get a brain, possibly even a human brain, or a dolphin. Something that can think anyway. Connect enough algorithms together and you get AI.

Episode transcript:
You probably use an RSS feed. In fact if you got this episode as a podcast you definitely used an RSS feed. Most people these days don’t even know they’re there. The story of RSS is simple and yet combative. In fact RSS’s success may hinge on one man’s idealistic dedication to his principles. If you’ve ever thought “why are people making this so complicated?” If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to be a person who just shut everyone up with an action that for right or wrong would stand the test of time. Get ready to Know a Little More about RSS.
People say RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication though it really doesn’t. That’s one of the charms of the story of RSS. Throughout its formative years nobody could agree on much and the name is still a matter of debate to this day.
If you’ve heard of RSS at all, it was most likely in connection with Podcasts. Podcasts are delivered through RSS feeds to the apps and platforms where you can listen to them. Behind every Apple Podcast, Google Podcast, Audible Podcast and even most Spotify podcasts, there’s a simple RSS feed. You may also use RSS as a feed for headlines. If you use Feedly, NewsBlur or Inoreader or something like that you’re using RSS.
But where did RSS come from? Oh my friends. Be prepared for a tale of idealism, abandonment, betrayal and perseverance. It is the tale of RSS.
In the earliest days if you wanted to know if a website had been updated you had to visit it. As websites became more common this became a chore. So people experimented with ways to let you know when a website had been updated, without you having to go there. One of the earliest attempts at this was the Meta Content Framework or MCF, developed in 1995 in Apple’s Advanced Technology Group.
Ramanathan V. Guha was part of that group and a few years later, he moved over to browser-maker Netscape, where he and Dan Libby kept working on these sorts ideas. Guha particularly liked developing Resource Description Frameworks, or RDFs, similar to the old MCF he worked on at Apple. They were complex ways to show all kinds of things about web pages without having to visit them.
But Netscape’s team was of Guha, Libby and friends was not alone. And early on they weren’t he most likely to succeed. The Information and Content Exchange standard, or ICE, was proposed in January 1998, by Firefly Networks — an early web community company– and Vignette- a web publishing tool maker. They got some big names to back ICE too. Microsoft, Adobe, Sun, CNET, National Semiconductor, Tribune Media Services, Ziff Davis and Reuters, were among the ICE authoring group. But it wasn’t open source. In those days respectable tech companies like those I just named, still cast a skeptical eye on open source code. How were you supposed to make money on it? Who would keep working on it if they weren’t paid? So the members of the ICE authoring group paid people to develop it. And in the end that meant it developed slower than competing standards.
Interestingly, ICE’s failure caused Microsoft to get a little more open, a little earlier than you might expect. In 1997 Microsoft and Pointcast created the Channel Definition Format, or CDF. They released it on March 8, 1997 and in order not to fall under the death by slow development that ICE seemed to, they submitted it as as standard to the W3C the next day.
It was adopted quickly and in fact its success planted the seed of its successor. Dave Winer had founded a software company in 1988 called UserLand. UserLand added support for CDF on April 14, 1997 one month after its release. Winer also began publishing his weblog, Scripting News in CDF. But CDF, like ICE, was more complicated than a smaller site needed. So on December 27, 1997, Winer began to publish Scripting News in his own scriptingNews feed format as well. He just simplified CDF for his own needs and made that available for anyone who wanted to use it to subscribe.
Meanwhile Libby had been working away at his own version of a feed platform and Netscape was about to make a big launch that would cause his project to surpass them all. On July 28, 1998, Netscape launched My Netscape Portal, This was one of the earliest Web Portals. A place that aggregated links from sites around the Web. You could add sites you wanted to follow, like CNET or ZDNet and then see their latest posts all in one place.
Netscape kept the links updated with a set of tools developed by Libby. He had taken a part of an RDF parsing system that his friend Guha had developed for the Netscape 5 browser, and turned it into a feed parsing system for My Netscape. He called it Open-SPF at the time, for Site Preview Format.
Open-SPF let anyone format content that could then be added to My Netscape. It was rich like CDF, open like CDF but had one advantage over CDF. It worked on My Netscape, which suddenly everyone wanted to be on.
Netscape provided it for free because that meant the company didn’t have to spend time reaching deals for content. You want your content on My Netscape, use Open-SPF, it can be there. That meant there was more content available for My Netscape than was usual on curated pages. The content was free for both the users and Netscape. More content meant more users and more users meant Netscape could serve more ads. And content providers were willing to create the Open-SPF feeds, because they weren’t burdensome to create and the sites got more visitors who saw their content on My Netscape and clicked on links to come to their sites.
Sound familiar? This arrangement is the one Google still tries to rely on for Google News. Except the news publishers have changed tunes. Back then they were all about bringing visitors to their websites and happy that Netscape sent folks their way for free.. But as the years have passed and revenue has shrunk, now they’re more about getting Google to pay them for linking to their news.
Anyway back to the rise of Netscape.
1999 is not only the end of the millennium. It’s not only when everyone actually got to party the way Prince had been asking them to pretend to party. 1999 was a huge year for RSS. It was about to reach its modern form and become something users of RSS today would recognise. By name.
On Feb. 1, 1999 Open-SPF was released as an Engineering Vision Statement for folks to comment on and help improve.
Dave Winer commented that he would love to add Scripting News to My Netscape but he didn’t have time to learn Netscape’s Open-SPF. However because he had his own self-made feed format using XML he’d “be happy to support Netscape and others in writing syndicators of that content flow. No royalty necessary. It would be easy to have a search engine feed off this flow of links and comments. There are starting to be a bunch of weblogs, wouldn’t it be interesting if we could agree on an XML format between us?”
However by Feb. 22, Scripting News was publishing in Open-SPF and available at My Netscape. Feeling like it was a success, Libby changed the name of Open-SPF to refer to the fact that it used RDF, calling it the RDF-SPF format and released specs for RDF-SPF 0.9 on March 1. Shortly after release he changed the unwieldy name to RDF Site Summary, or RSS for short. Thus begins the first in a parade of meanings for RSS
And the new name took off. Carmen’s Headline Viewer came out on April 25th as the first RSS desktop aggregator and Winer’s my.UserLand.com followed on June 10th as a web-based aggregator.
Folks liked the idea obviously, but a lot of RSS enthusiasts thought the RDF was too complex, Dave Winer among them. Libby hadn’t ignored Winer’s earlier offer either. In fact, Libby thought they weren’t really using RDF for any useful purpose. So he simplified the format adding some elements from Winer’s scriptingNews, and removing RDF so it would validate as XML. This was released on July 10, 1999 as RSS 0.91.
Some folks write that the name changed to Rich Site Summary at that point but Winer wrote at the time “There is no consensus on what RSS stands for, so it’s not an acronym, it’s a name. Later versions of this spec may say it’s an acronym, and hopefully this won’t break too many applications.”
Anyway by 1999, like Toy Story, RSS is on a roll. Libby is bringing in feedback from the community and creating a workable usable standard that is reaching heights of popularity beyond just the confines of My Netscape.
Like some kind of VH1 Behind the Music story, as it reach that’s height, everything fell apart.
Netscape would never release a new version of RSS again.
In the absence of Netscape’s influence, two competing camps arose.
Rael Dornfest wanted to add new features, possibly as modules. That would mean adding more complex XML and possibly bringing back RDF.
Dave Winer preached simplicity. You could learn HTML at the time by just viewing the source code of a web page. Winer wanted the same for RSS.
On August 14, 2000, the RSS 1.0 mailing list became the battleground for the war of words between the two camps.
Dornfest’s group started the RSS-DEV Working Group. It included RDF expert Guha as well as future Reddit co-founder Aaron Swartz. They added back support for RDF as well as including XML Namespaces. On December 6, 2000 they released RSS-1.0. and renamed RSS back to RDF Site Summary.
Not to be left behind, two weeks later On December 25, 2000, Winer’s camp released RSS 0.92.
Folks, grab your steaks knives. We have a fork.
In earlier days, Libby, or someone at Netscape, would have stepped in. In But AOL had bought Netscape in 1998 and had been de-empahasizing My Netscape. They wanted people on AOL.com. And if they didn’t care about Netscape, they cared even less about RSS. In fact they actively did things that could have ended RSS. In April 2001, AOL closed My Netscape and disbanded the RSS team, going so far as to pull the RSS 0.91 document offline. That document was used by every RSS parser to validate the feeds. Suddenly all RSS feeds stopped validating. Apparently this had little effect on visitors to AOL.com or people dialing in to their internet connection, so AOL just let them stay broken. With the RSS team gone and AOL doing nothing, RSS feeds were looking dead in the water.
But the RSS 0.91 document was just a document after all. And there were copies. Anybody theoretically could host it as long as everyone else changed their feeds to validate to the new address. Dave Winer stepped up.
Winer’s UserLand stepped in and published a copy of the document on Scripting.com so that feed readers could validate. That right there won Winer a lot of good will.
An uneasy truce followed. Whether you were using Netscape’s old RSS 0.91, Winer’s new RSS 0.92 or the RDF Development Group’s RSS 1.0 they would all validate.
By the summer of 2002, things are going OK and tempers have cooled. Nelly has a hit song advising folks what to do if things get hot in here. Maybe we can solve this? Let’s try to merge all three versions into one new version we can all agree on and call it RSS 2.0. right?
Except they couldn’t agree. Winer still wanted simplicity. RDF folks still wanted RDF and the fun features it would bring. They would agree to a simplified version of RDF but they still wanted it. To make matters more confusing, Winer was discussing what should happen by blog, with everyone pointing to their own blogs. The RDF folks were talking about it on the rss-dev mailing list.
Communication, oddly in a discussion about a communication platform, was the problem. Since neither side was seeing each other’s arguments they never came to an agreement. So Winer’s group decided not to wait. On September 16, 2002, UserLand released their own spec and just went and called it RSS 2.0. AND Winer declared RSS 2.0 frozen. No more changes.
Discussions continued on the RSS-dev list but Winer’s camp got another victory when in November 2002, the New York Times adopted RSS 2.0. That caused a lot of other publications to follow suit. Further consolidating the position.
The next year in another move fending off the debate, on July 15, 2003, Winer and UserLand assigned ownership of RSS 2.0 copyright to Harvard’s Berkman Center for the Internet & Society. A three-person RSS Advisory board was founded to maintain the spec in cooperation with the Berkman Center which continued the policy of considering RSS frozen. Mic. Dropped.
There was still a resistance. IBM developer Sam Ruby set up a wiki for some of the old RDF folks, and others, to discuss a new syndication format to address shortcomings in RSS and possibly replace Blogger and LiveJournal’s protocols. The Atom syndication format was born of this process and was proposed as an internet official protocol standard in December 2005. Atom has a few more capabilities and is more standard compliant, being an official IETF Internet standard, which RSS is not. But in practice they’re pretty similar. Atom’s last update was October 2007 but it is still widely supported alongside RSS.
And RSS 2.0 kept going. In 2004 its abilities to do enclosures, basically point to a file that could be delivered along with text, led to the rise of Podcasts. Basically RSS feeds that pointed to MP3 files.
In 2005, Safari, Internet Explorer, and Firefox all began incorporating RSS into their browser’s functions. Mozilla’s Stephen Hollander had created the Web Feed icon, the little orange block with a symbol like the WiFi symbol at an angle. It was used in Firefox’s implementation of RSS support, and eventually Microsoft and Opera used it too. It was also used for Atom feeds. Stephen Hollander did what most could not. Get people interested in providing automated Web feeds to agree on something.
And in 2006, with Dave Winer’s participation, RSS Advisory Board chairman Rogers Cadenhead relaunched the body, adding 8 new members to the group in order to continue development of RSS.
Peace in the form of an orange square was achieved.
OK. So RSS has a colorful history. What the heck does it do?
That part is pretty simple. It’s a standard for writing out a description of stuff so that it’s easy for software to read and display it.
Basically you have the channel (or Feed in Atom) and Items (or entries in Atom).
RSS 2.0 requires the channel to have three elements, the rest are optional. So to have a proper feed you need a title for your channel, a description of what it is and a link to the source of the channel’s items.
Like Daily Tech News Show – A show about tech news. And a link to dailytechnewsshow.com
Optional elements of RSS are things like an image, publication date, copyright notice, and even more instructions like how long to go between checking for new content and days and times to skip checking.
The items are the stuff in the feed. There are no required elements of an item, except that it can’t be empty. It has to have at least one thing in it. So an item could just have a title or just have a link. However most of the time an item has a title, a link and a description. The description can be a summary or the whole post. Other elements of the item include author, category, comments, publication date and of course enclosure.
So for our Daily Tech News Show example title might be Episode 5634 – AI Wins, the description might be “Tom and Sarah talk about how AI just won and took over everything.” And the link to the post for that episode.
The enclosure element lets the item point to a file to be loaded. The most common use for the enclosure tag is to include an audio or video file to be delivered as a podcast.
For Daily Tech News Show that would be a link to the MP3 file.
In the end an RSS reader or a podcast player looks at an RSS feed the way your browser looks at a web page. It sees all the titles, links descriptions and possible enclosures, and then loads them up and displays them for you.
After a rather stormy opening decade, RSS has settled down into a reliable and with apologies to team RDF, simple way of syndicating info. Really Simple Syndication indeed.
Like podcasting which it provides the underpinnings to, RSS has been declared dead several times. But it just keeps on enduring. I hope you have a little appreciation for that tiny file that delivers you headlines and shows now. In other words, I hope you know a little more about RSS.
Tom Henderson at Insider Gaming’s sources say Sony began development on a new PlayStation Handheld codenamed the Q Lite. Is Sony planning a new handheld and is it a strategy that will work better than the Vita? Is Meta’s release of research into computer vision segmentation a play for a future use as an ad delivery model? And Nintendo’s Shigeru Miyamoto signals the company is pulling its Mario franchise away from mobile. Does the company’s existing vision still work in a multi-platform market?

Episode transcript:
Two cases are before the US Supreme Court regarding protections provided by Section 230 of the US Communications Decency Act. Gonzalez v. Google claims that a platform, in this case, YouTube, should be liable for content it recommends to users. Twitter v. Taamneh argues that Twitter provided unlawful material support for failing to remove users from its platform.
A lot of people are talking about these cases. And a lot of well-intentioned and well-informed people are going to make arguments based on misunderstandings of Section 230. So in this special episode I want to cover just what Section 230 is and what it isn’t. In other words I’ll help you Know a Little More about Section 230.
We covered the history and meaning of Section 230 in depth in the episode About Safe Harbor in July 2020. So if you want the deep dive please listen to that.
This episode will focus on how to properly explain and think about Section 230 no matter what argument you may or may not be trying to make. You may think Section 230 promotes censorship. You may think it protects big tech companies from responsibility. You may think it should be repealed. Those are all reasonable positions to take. But I often hear people argue these sorts of positions from a starting point that is wrong. I just want to give you the correct starting point from which you can make your argument.
So let’s start with the folks who say we should just get rid of it. There is a misconception that if we get rid of Section 230 companies would have to take responsibility for the content on their platform or that they would have to stop censoring. Neither one of those things is assured.
Without Section 230, ANY platform. And it’s worth pointing out this applies to a forum you might run on your own website, as well as to Facebook. Without Section 230, any platform would be seen in the eyes of the law as either a publisher of information or a distributor. A publisher is responsible for what it publishes. A distributor is not responsible for the contents of what it distributes.
The easiest way to think about this is a brick and mortar bookstore. The publisher of the books and magazines it sells are responsible for what’s in the books and magazines. The book store is just the distributor. In fact a 1959 Supreme Court case ruled that a bookstore owner cannot be reasonably expected to know the content of every book it sells. They should only be liable if they know or should have known that selling something was specifically illegal. Otherwise the publisher is liable for what’s in the book or magazine.
Now let’s think about that for a minute. The bookstore can decide what magazines to carry. But it’s not deciding what’s in the magazine. And it still isn’t allowed to sell magazines that it knows are illegal. Also of note is that letters to the editor published in the magazines are still the responsibility of the publisher. Just because a reader wrote the letter doesn’t free the publisher from liability. Because the margin publisher chose to publish it. It exercised editorial control.
So the bookstore gets protection because it’s not exercising editorial control of what’s in the books.
Fast forward to the 1990s. Compuserve and Prodigy are vibrant new parts of the internet where people are talking to each other like never before.
It’s April 1990. Sinead O’Connor’s new song Nothing oppress 2 U (written by Prince) tops the Billboard charts.
Robert Blanchard’s company Cubby Inc. has developed Skuttlebut – with a K- a database for TV news and radio gossip. It’s a new competitor for Compuserve’s Rumorville. Rumorville is published by Don Fitzpatrick Associates on Compuserve’s Journalism forum. Skuttlebut and Rumorville are in stiff competition for the burgeoning online audience that wants TV and radio news industry gossip. This is FIVE YEARS before the Drudge Report mind you.
In the heat of the competition Rumorville USA posts that Scuttlebutt has been getting info from a back door at Rumorville. And that Skuttlebutt’s owner, Robert Blanchard got “bounced” by WABC. And– and you don’t do this folks– described Scuttlebutt as a “scam.”
Blanchard and Cubby Inc. sued Don Fitzpatrick Associates, but also sued Compuserve as the publisher. But here’s the thing. Compuserve did not review Rumorville’s content. Once it was uploaded it was available. Compuserve also didn’t get any money from Rumorville. The only money it made was off the subscribers to Compuserve itself, whether they read Rumorville or not.
In Cubby Inc. v Compuserve, the judge ruled that Compuserve was not a publisher. It was a distributor. It could not reasonably know what was in the thousands of publications it carried on its service. Therefore, like a bookstore, Compuserve was not liable for what was published in Rumorville USA.
Reminder. This is without Section 230. The platform was not exercising control over the content so it was not liable for what was in it.
On to October 1994. Boyz II Men is dominating the charts with a long run at number one with “I’ll Make Love to You.”
Prodigy’s Money Talk message board is still awash in talk about the bond market crisis. And an anonymous user posted that securities investment firm Stratton Oakmont had committed crime and fraud related to a stock IPO. Stratton Oakmont files a lawsuit against Prodigy alleging the company is the publisher of the information.
So you’d think, given the Compuserve case that prodigy is in good shape. It didn’t publish the comments the commoner did.
Except. It’s been a few years, and a few raging internet flame wars later, and Prodigy, like many other platforms, has developed some Content Guidelines for users to follow. It also has Board Leaders who are charged with enforcing those guidelines. And prodigy even uses some automated software to screen for offensive language. This is all good community moderation practice right? Clear set of guidelines. Consequences if you violate them. And even some automated ways to keep some of the bad stuff from ever even showing up.
The court looked at that and said, well, looks to us like you’re exercising editorial control. You’re deciding who gets to post what. That feels a lot more like the letters to the editor than it does the bookstore. The court wrote “Prodigy’s conscious choice, to gain the benefits of editorial control, has opened it up to a greater liability than CompuServe and other computer networks that make no such choice.”
In Stratton Oakmont v. Prodigy, the court ruled in favor of Stratton Oakmont.
After that case the law stands that courts will give you the protection of a distributor, as long as you don’t moderate. If you moderate the content, you’re on the hook for it.
So in other words before Section 230, you could either leave everything up or you’d have to be responsible for everything, meaning you’d have to pre-screen all posts. Your choice is either zero moderation or prior restraint.
Republican Chris Cox and Democrat Ron Wyden both thought this was not an ideal situation. So they wrote Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act which read “No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider.”
Those are the 26 words usually cited as section 230. But that’s just paragraph 1 of subsection c. There are a lot of other subsections related to definitions and why the act is being made etc. But there’s a second subparagraph of section c which is also important. It’s called Civil liability It reads:
No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be held liable on account of—
(A) any action voluntarily taken in good faith to restrict access to or availability of material that the provider or user considers to be obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, excessively violent, harassing, or otherwise objectionable, whether or not such material is constitutionally protected; or
(B) any action taken to enable or make available to information content providers or others the technical means to restrict access to material described in paragraph (1)
In other words, even if it’s protected free speech, the platform can take down content it finds objectionable and not lose its protections from liability for other content.
All of this is a long way to say if the platform didn’t create the content, it’s not responsible for it. ..with a few exceptions.
This is another part of the discussion of Section 230 that gets left out. Section 230 specifically says that this law will have no effect on criminal law, intellectual property law, communications privacy law or sex trafficking law. So the DMCA for example still has to be followed. You have to respond to copyright takedown notices.
So back to the two Supreme Court cases Gonzalez v. Google and Twitter v. Taamneh.
Section 230 does not let Facebook publish anything without being responsible. It just means it’s not on the hook for what I post just because it removes other posts. It’s an interesting question whether recommendations count as content created by the platform or not. It would certainly count as editorial control before Section 230, but Section 230 was put in place specifically to allow a measure of editorial control without having to take responsibility for all posts.
It’s also an interesting question whether “terrorist” content qualifies as criminal content which Section 230 does not protect. And should Twitter have known about it and removed the accounts.
Bearing on both those questions is one more case that tested Section 230 shortly after it became law.
It’s April 25, 1995. Montell Jordan’s “This is How We Do It” tops the charts.
And someone has posted a message on an AOL Bulletin Board called “Naughty Oklahoma T-Shirts” describing the sale of shirts featuring offensive and tasteless slogans related to the Oklahoma City bombings which had happened 6 days before. The posting listed the phone number of Kenneth Zeran in Seattle, Washington who had no knowledge of the posting. He then received a high volume of calls, mostly angry about the post. Some calls were death threats. Zeran called AOL which said they would remove the post. However the next day a new post was made and new posts were made over the next four days. One of the posts was picked up by a radio announcer at KRXO in Oklahoma City who encouraged listeners to call the number. Zeran required police protection and sued KRXO and then separately AOL.
In its decision, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit wrote “It would be impossible for service providers to screen each of their millions of postings for possible problems. Faced with potential liability for each message republished by their services, interactive computer service providers might choose to severely restrict the number and type of messages posted. Congress considered the weight of the speech interests implicated and chose to immunize service providers to avoid any such restrictive effect.”
It also wrote that Section 230 “creates a federal immunity to any cause of action that would make service providers liable for information originating with a third-party user of the service. Thus, lawsuits seeking to hold a service provider liable for its
exercise of a publisher’s traditional editorial functions — such as
deciding whether to publish, withdraw, postpone or alter content —
are barred.”
Zeran argued that even if AOL wasn’t a publisher, it was a Distributor and under the 1959 case, a distributor would still need to be responsible for speech it knew was defamatory. And Zeran argued AOL knew, because he called them about it after the first post. The judge however says that AOL is a publisher not a distributor plain and simple. But Section 230 shields them from the liability normally afforded a publisher. So you can’t just redefine them.
This ended up as a stricter protection for a distributor than the 1959 case. Instead of having to take it down once you know about it. Internet services were given a broader shield.
And that became the principle justification for CDA 230.
And if the Supreme Court follows that precedent it might also consider recommendations to be publishing behavior and therefore protected. That’s not the only way it could rule but it is a possibility.
In the end what I want folks to take away is that Section 230 doesn’t free a tech platform to do whatever it wants. It frees a platform to choose to moderate and exercise editorial control over the posts of others without having to assume responsibility for the thousands, and now millions of posts made every day.
It’s reasonable to argue that perhaps there are some responsibilities that should be restored to tech platforms through legislation. I think it’s worth pointing out that repealing Section 230 altogether would not necessarily achieve that.
So I hope now you have a firmer basis upon which to base your opinion whatever it is. In other words, I hope you know a little more about section 230.

Episode transcript:
My uncle said my grandma worked as a computer and I said you mean ON a computer and he said no, AS a computer and I said what was she a robot and he said I didn’t know anything
Confused, don’t be
Let’s help you know a little more about the word Computer.
The Oxford English Dictionary says the first recorded use of the word computer was in a 1613 book called The Yong Mans Gleanings by the English writer Richard Brathwait. He wrote “I haue read the truest computer of Times, and the best Arithmetician that euer breathed, and he reduceth thy dayes into a short number.”
Brathwait was using the term to describe a person who carries out calculations. A pretty common tactic in English called nouning a verb. The verb was “to compute” and the noun used for a person who computes became computer. Just like a person who rides is a rider or a person jokes is a joker or a dolphin who flaps is a Flapper.
So where does compute come from? As with many things in English it comes from the romans – via the latin computare – which was used to mean to count or sum up. Literally to cut strike or stamp together with. Something like a word describing a person who marked down tally on a clay tablet or some such thing.
It worked its way into French in the 1500s and then to English the next century. What’s fun about that is the word still exists in French – compter– meaning to count or add up. But when it worked its way back into French from the English word being used to mean a mechanical device, the French resistance to borrowing from English acted up and professer Jaques Perret suggested using ordinatrice elctronique, based on the word ordonnateur, someone who arranges things or puts them in order. Essentially electronic ordering up person. IBM shortened out ordinateur, and even tried to trademark, but it was too popular and was officially included in the lexicon.
OK so back to English. When did computer start meaning a thing not a person. Apparently 1897. At least that’s what etymonline says but it doesn’t give details or a citation. However that is in the time in which Charles Babbage was developing his Difference Engine, designed to aid in navigational calculations and his Analytical Engine, designed for more general uses. Babbage used punched cards that were being used to direct mechanical looms. Charles Babbage’s son Henry completed a simplified version of the analytical engine’s computing unit in 1888 and a successful demonstration of computing tables in 1906.
And here’s an interesting twist. A computer was not a profession until the 20th century. Nor was it a popular term for a mechanical device until the twentieth century. Human computers were used to compile tables in earlier centuries but it was World War I that made it a legitimate profession. Computers were people who produced map grids, surveying aids, navigation tables and artillery tables. As more men were sent to the front lines, most computer jobs were done by women. The same thing happened again during World War II. Several women with degrees in mathematics worked as computers for research related to and part of the Manhattan Project.
And people who worked as computers were the logical choices to work on setting up and maintaining electric computers. First general purpose electronic digital computer is usually acknowledged as ENIAC, which was completed in 1945. Six computers — the people — were selected to set up problems on ENIAC. The first six computers which you can call the first computer programmers were Kay McNulty, Betty Snyder, Marlyn Wescoff, Ruth Lichterman, Betty Jean Jennings, and Fran Bilas.
And from there the use of computer as a word for a person faded out. What we now call computers went from being electronic brains to electronic computers to just computers. To PCs and then phones. In fact the word computer may be in the midst of another transition as people more frequently use words like laptop, tablet and phone.
Whatever its future, here’s to the word computer and all the people and machines who have fit the description for more than 400 years.
In other words, I hope you know a little more about the word computer.

Episode transcript:
I saw back to the future and the car ran on banana peels in a thing called Mr. Fusion
So where are our fusion reactors?
I heard we figured it out or something. No?
Confused?
Don’t be. Let’s help you Know A little more about nuclear fusion.
To solve… everything… we need more cheap clean energy. Yes there’s wind and solar and geothermal and lots of other options. But one dream that physicists particularly love is harnessing the power of nuclear fusion.
Nuclear fusion is the process of combining two atoms. If the atoms are light enough the process releases energy, called an exothermic reaction. If the atoms are heavy, the process retains energy, called endothermic. Exothermic means the energy goes out and endothermic means the energy stays in. So if you to generate power you want exothermic. And for an exothermic reaction you can fuse two light elements together. The fusion of light elements is what most people mean when they refer to fusion.
Two nuclear forces are important to understand why nuclear fusion of light elements makes power.
The nucleus of an atom is made of protons and neutrons. The force that keeps them bound together is called, creatively enough, the nuclear force.
There’s another force called the Coulomb force, named not after Columbo, but rather after French Physicist Charles Augustin de Coulomb who published three reports on electric and magnetism in 1785. In those reports he stated Coulomb’s law that stated that “the repulsive force that the two balls — [that were] electrified with the same kind of electricity — exert on each other, follows the inverse proportion of the square of the distance.” Basically the force derives from the charges in the two things multiplied by each other and gets stronger the closer they are. Except he had math to help you determine exactly how much that is.
So the nuclear force keeps neutrons and protons together in the nucleus. And Coulomb’s force repels like charges. Protons are positively charged so they normally will repel each other. If you keep protons close together in a nucleus, the nuclear force keeps them together, but pull them apart and the Coulomb force will cause them to split apart.
In elements smaller than iron and nickel, there aren’t many protons. So when you push two nuclei together the protons will resist but since there aren’t many of them they can get close enough that the nuclear force overcomes Coulomb. In fact there’s more nuclear force than you need, so some of it gets released as energy.
This is how the sun generates energy. It fuses together hydrogen atoms, which have one proton, turning them into Helium which has two protons.
Now that nuclear force is short range. The Coulomb force is infinite range. It takes a lot of energy to get two hydrogen atoms to get close enough so that their nuclei are so near that the nuclear force overcomes the Coulomb force and fuses them together. But it’s worth it because more energy is released as a result of the fusion than it takes to get the two atoms close together. Given the right conditions that extra energy can be used to force other hydrogen atoms into each other and so on and so on in a sustained reaction.
That’s what’s going on in the sun. And there’s enough hydrogen around that it will probably go on for around 5 billion years.
Great. So we just need to recreate the conditions of the sun. Heck we don’t even need a fraction of 5 billion years worth of energy so it can be a very small sun. Which is probably smart since a big sun would cause all kinds of problems.
The only obstacle is how to get it started. The sun did this by collapsing a giant cloud of spinning dust under its own gravity. Hard to replicate, especially without destroying the Earth. While it’s a tough problem it’s worth exploring.
Why? Well it doesn’t emit many byproducts. No CO2 at all. And it has a lot fewer downsides than its opposite, nuclear fission. Fission power works by splitting atoms apart to release energy. It also releases lots of radioactivity and radioactive waste. Because when you pull apart those protons a lot of other stuff leaves with it. Fusion generates much less radioactivity and very little nuclear waste. Your pushing things together not pulling them apart. So you do end up with some helium but that’s kind of about it.
And fuel is pretty easy to get. The whole planet is covered in hydrogen, albeit bound with oxygen in the form of water. And fusion fuel is energy dense. A cup of hydrogen could potentially power a house for a hundred years.
OK so its worth doing. How do we do it.
The big obstacles are getting the temperature pressure and duration needed to get the reaction going, and then the next obstacle is sustaining it long enough to generate enough power to start other reactions. The challenge with sustaining the reaction is that the neutrons released in fusion sometimes degrade the equipment you’re using to make the fusion happen. And the ways we use to create the energy to ignite the fusion sometimes destroy the equipment. Little things like that.
But we’re making progress.
There are two main approaches showing promise: the tokamak design and the internal confinement fusion or ICF design. There is also magnetized target fusion and inertial electrostatic confinement, but the majority of the work at the moment is being done on tokamak or ICF.
The tokamak uses a magnetic field to confine hydrogen plasma in a torus shape. A torus is a donut shape. The kind of donut with a hole in it. It’s donut power. Homer Simpson by rights should have worked at a fusion reactor. But I digress.
Essentially in a tokamak reactor, a set of magnetic coils and a central magnet (a solenoid to be precise) create opposing fields that result in a twisted magnetic field that confines the hydrogen plasma. Twist the plasma enough and it fuses.
Internal confinement fusion or ICF, puts hydrogen in a pellet about the size of a pinhead. The outside of the pellet is bombarded with high energy beams. It could be photons, electrons, or ions. Most ICF reactors these days use lasers. The beam heats the outside of the pellet enough that it explodes both outward but also accelerating inward compressing the hydrogen and triggering fusion.
OK so we have some ideas. Let’s give a progress report.
We’ve been working on nuclear fusion for awhile. The first patent for a fusion reactor was registered in 1946 by the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority. And fusion ignition was first achieved just a few years later! In 1952! That’s a good pace right?
Just a couple of snags. One was that it used nuclear fission to start the reaction, so that kind of negated the benefits of fusion over fission. And two it was a bomb. So it kind of just blew things up rather than actually “powering” things. The bomb was called Ivy Mike though. So that was cute.
Much more useful for power generation was the first controlled fusion reaction using the Scylla 1 machine at Los Alamos National Laboratory in 1958. It technically created fusion but not for long, not efficiently and not at scale.
And that was the story of fusion power for decades. It’s always just a few years off. But there’s always a little progress and by the mid 2000s, momentum built Tokamak and ICF designs.
That sort of catches us up to now.
The biggest Tokamak project is Iter, which is an intergovernmental organization created in 2007 by China, Europe, India, Japan, Korea, Russia and the US. It began construction of a reactor site in 2013, the tokamak itself in 2020 and is expected to conduct its first reaction in 2025.
Another tokamak reactor is already up and running. On December 21, 2021, scientists at the Joint European Torus – aka JET– in the UK generated a record 59 megajoules over the course of 5 seconds by fusion. The most ever generated. It still wasn’t putting out more energy than they put in though.
Energy gain is what scientists began to look for. When can you say that you got more energy out than you put in, that’s energy gain.
Well, on December 14, 2022, scientists from the National Ignition Facility at Lawrence Livermore Labs in Livermore, California announced that for the first time they had developed a fusion reaction that produced more energy than it took in. They achieved energy gain.
The National Ignition facility used the “world’s biggest laser” focused on a cylindrical device with a capsule about the size of a pea, designed based on work with computer models to optimize its reaction. That capsule was filled with isotopes of hydrogen– deuterium and tritium. Laserbeams heated the capsule contents into a plasma that fused the atoms into helium and released energy and neutrons. At 1:03 AM on December 5th, the process was able to produce 3.15 megajoules of energy, 50 percent more than the 2.05 megajoules used by the 192 laser beams– about the same energy used by a hair dryer running for 15 minutes, but compressed into a millionth of a second. Still, that’s only 1.1 megajoules. Enough to boil water in a couple of of kettles.
So we’re there right? Not exactly.
The experiment produced more energy than went into the experiment, but that is not the same as producing more energy than was used in the experiment overall. The lasers are very inefficient. It took more than 300 megajoules of energy to create the 2.05 megajoules that the lasers put out. This is still scientifically important, because we’ve shown that if we had a perfectly efficient input, fusion could generate net positive energy. But it’s not a practical demonstration of a reactor we could use today. To do that we’ll have to see if we can repeat the process using more energy-efficient lasers.
There are other practicalities to overcome as well. This was one short reaction that destroyed the capsule and the sensors around it. Remember those stray neutrons? Yeah those and exploding capsules tend to play havoc with the equipment.
To be commercially viable, a fusion reactor needs to create multiple ignitions per minute without destroying everything nearby. Something of a trick when each ignition is designed to crush and obliterate your fuel capsule into helium.
Also the whole thing is still pricy. Like if you have to ask you can’t afford it pricy. The experiment cost a few billion dollars.
At a press conference, Kim Budil, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory director, said “We need the private sector to get in the game. It’s really important that there has been this incredible amount of US public dollars going into this breakthrough, but all of the steps that we’ll take that will be necessary to get this to commercial level will still require public research and private research.” Among the private companies working on fusion are Tokamak Energy in the UK and Commonwealth Fusion Systems which spun out of MIT and more.
So nuclear fusion. It’s just a few years down the road.
In other words I hope you know a little more about nuclear fusion.

Episode transcript:
I heard some software got compromised because of a supply chain attack.
That sounds like malware was delivered by boat or something.
But my SysAdmin friend tells me it’s no joke. What the heck is it?
Confused? Don’t be. Let’s help you know a little more about Supply Chain Attacks.
A supply chain attack can mean a lot of things including people drilling a whole in a warehouse or something. But in the technology world we use the term supply chain attack to mean adding malicious code to software or hardware before it is supplied to its destination. This lets the attacker use it as a Trojan horse. Wait for the compromised admin software or network card to be installed within a company’s network, then attack from within.
Supply chains in tech usually involve multiple vendors. In hardware there is software embedded on parts that may be sent to multiple packagers and assemblers before finally being shipped out for warehousing and distribution. In software, multiple vendors may make components used in the software, some open source and some proprietary. It could be components or dependencies. Little bits of code that do one specific thing and save a lot of time and money so that developers don’t have to rewrite every piece from scratch. Like maybe a clock or a machine learning model. Even when the software is finally done, the software-maker may use intermediaries to distribute the software and to handle pushing out updates.
Any one of those links in the chain can be an opportunity for an attack. Supply chain attacks are conducted by sophisticated actors, often called Advanced Persistent Threats or APT. The attackers will usually conduct surveillance on a supply chain to identify which part of it has the weakest security. You can successfully attack a large well-secured company by compromising a piece of its software made by a smaller less well-secured business.
So the attackers look for an insecure network, unprotected server infrastructure or bad coding practice and exploit it to hide malware in the build or update process in a way that is difficult to detect. The software is released by a trusted vendor, signed and certified without anyone realizing it contains a backdoor or some other malware.
Supply chain attacks come in multiple flavors. Upstream attacks are the most common. That’s where the attackers infect an update, so every installation that updates, gets infected.
Other type of supply chain attacks can include:
Targeting development tools so the developers working on code unknowingly insert malware
Target dependencies – components of software that are frequently included in all kinds of software.
Compromise elements of automation like cloning repositories.
However it’s used, supply chain attacks are efficient because the attacker can just compromise one element, wait for it to appear in multiple places and then choose who to attack. Let’s say a company makes a component that is used in lots of software. Maybe it’s a network management component that goes into all kinds of applications from sales to HR and beyond. The attacker just compromises that one component, which then gets into hundreds of thousands of installs across multiple parts of multiple companies.
And once you’re into a network you can then install more malicious software elsewhere, so that even if the original piece of software is patched, the malicious attacker is still inside.
There are no end of examples of supply chain attacks.
The first supply chain attack was demonstrated in 1984 by one of the creators of Unix, Ken Thompson. For science. He was probing for vulnerabilities and wanted to see if he could hide a backdoor. So he built a compiler that put a backdoor in the login function. He also compromised the compiler that was used to compile that compiler so there wouldn’t be signs of tampering.
One common example is to inject spyware into a firmware installation for a consumer device. This kind of attack has been carried out against multiple computer makers like Lenovo and Asus.
Another example is to infect the software update process. That happened to hard drive utility CCleaner.
Of course the one you most likely have heard of happened to a company called Solar Winds. It offers a network monitoring tool called Orion. Attackers breached SolarWinds and managed to place malicious code in a software update for Orion. Yes the tool you used to monitor your network was compromised to let people into your network. Any company that applied the software update between March and June 2019 unknowingly installed a backdoor to their network. That ended up being around 18,000 networks.
The attackers did not use all these backdoors, but they did exploit many of them including ones at NASA, the US Department of Defense and multiple large companies including Microsoft, Intel, Cisco and security firm FireEye.
Another famous one that you may not realize was a supply chain attack, happened in 2017 when updates for accounting software MEDoc pushed out the destructive NotPetya code.
There are many more and you haven’t heard of most of them because a successful supply chain attack won’t attract attention. Most supply chain attackers want to run quiet, keeping activities at a minimum so as not to be detected. Some even rent out their access to other malicious actors.
Ok so how do we stop them?
Supply chain attacks are hard to defend against. The company affected is not the company that made the software. If you work in any kind of company, you know how hard it is to get people within the same company to cooperate to identify security issues. Now multiply that by one or more vendors in a supply chain to stop supply chain attacks.
So let’s run through the option.
A company could try to screen all its software– and it should– but it won’t always have access to source code and even if it did, will not always catch every cleverly hidden compromise. An update changes the behavior of software by design so it’s hard to tell which changes are intended and which aren’t. FireEye and Microsoft both missed the malware in SolarWinds’ Orion. Not because they are incompetent but because it was that cleverly hidden.
A company could try to write all its software in house, choosing not to trust any vendor. But that would likely end up having more security vulnerabilities of more kinds rather than less. It would also be much more costly than following best practices to prevent supply chain attacks. One of the benefits of using vendors is gaining their expertise and their security efforts at scale.
The common advice these days is to use fewer suppliers and hold them to higher standards of security and quality, while tightening up your own internal network security to make it harder for malicious actors if they do get into your network.
The US issued an executive order in May 2001 charging NIST with setting minimum security standards for a company that wants to sell software to federal agencies. This will cause many companies to raise their standards because they want to sell to the government. But companies who buy software and aren’t the government, can and probably should tailor their own standards as well.
Still, the NIST recommendations are a good template. There are two main areas of defense. Hold your vendors to a high standard to reduce the chance that you are buying software from a compromised entity. And develop robust internal protections that can detect and shutdown compromises if and when they do get in.
Among the security measures recommended for companies to protect themselves are the use of multi factor authentication for all users and admins. Uniquely identify and authenticate each service attempting to access critical software. Don’t trust something just because it’s inside the network. Maintain a software inventory so you know what’s actually running in your system. Encrypt data at rest and in transit. And there’s lots more about training, patching and monitoring. All meant to make it harder for an attacker to move even if they do get inside.
But you also want to make it less likely they get inside your software at all.
To reduce the chance that you are using a compromised vendor there are NIST standards for vendors as well. Vendors must engage in threat modeling, automated testing, code-based analysis, running programs in test cases to look for bugs, check all included libraries and other software and you know, fix bugs when you discover them. Basically make them prove they’ve done everything to help stop malicious actors from infecting their software.
You may be asking why these sorts of things aren’t already common practice. The answer is cost. Companies have been writing software or buying software on the cheap for decades, essentially relying on security through obscurity. Those days are gone. Auditing and certification are expensive but as more companies demand it, the prices will fall. And it’s worth the cost. Ask the victims of the NotPetya and Solar Winds attacks.
There are other movements besides NIST too.
The Consortium for Information and Software Quality for instance developed ISO standards that are the software equivalent of a bill of materials. It lets you know all the components that are in the software you’re buying, when they were last patched and if there are any known outstanding vulnerabilities.
This is a VERY high level overview of this topic. If you’re in an enterprise you should read the full NIST guidelines as well as some very good recommendations from security companies like FireEye and infrastructure providers like Cloudflare and Microsoft.
But I hope it helps you know a little more about supply chain attacks.

Embracer Group has acquired Tomb Raider developer Crystal Dynamics. The company also owns the worldwide exclusive rights to elements of The Hobbit and Lord of the rings. We speculate what Embracer Group is up to. The latest Framework modular laptop, that lets you swap out components and ports like a desktop PC, has received positive reviews while Dell continues to tease with its modular laptop concept. The ad-supported tier of Netflix isn’t providing enough of an audience for advertisers. Is this a problem only for Netflix or are other ad-supporter streaming services experiencing this too?

Lecturas de Interés:Twitter has, like its fellow social media platforms, been working for years to make the process of moderation efficient and systematic enough to function at scale. Not just so the platform isn’t overrun with bots and spam, but in order to comply with legal frameworks like FTC orders and the GDPR.
Setting aside the political motivations of the various participants in this limited hangout, or the question of journalistic value (or ethics) around the Twitter threads, I think what’s going inside Musk’s head is actually pretty simple and stupid: I think he noticed that Twitter attracts more traffic when he cultivates drama on the site and within the company, and he has stumbled upon a pretty effective means of cultivating more drama in order attract more traffic.

Transcript:
My friends make fun of me because they say my TV has the soap opera effect
They told me I need filmmaker mode
I’m not a filmmaker and I don’t watch soap operas. What are they on about?
Confused?
Don’t be
Let’s help you Know a Little More about Filmmaker Mode
TVs these days have a wealth of settings. This makes them more capable than TVs of the past, but also bewildering to the average TV watcher. Hence the epidemic of people leaving motion smoothing on and getting the so-called soap opera effect on everything.
Despite all this, people are watching more movies at home now than ever. Some of them may venture into settings and turn on Cinematic or Movie mode when they watch a film. That’s better than motion smoothing but it still messes with the picture more than a film’s director might approve of.
So even before COVID-19 hit, Filmmakers were teaming up with TV manufacturers to try to make it easy to configure your TV to look as close as possible to how a movie’s director would want it to look. I mean outside of you seeing it in a theater.
The Ultra HD Alliance or UHDA, is made up of loads of companies involved in making technology for displaying video– including Samsung, LG, Sony, Toshiba, Vizio, Panasonic, Amazon, Nvidia, Dell, Google, Dolby, Intel, and Asus
The alliance. maintains a spec for the combination of 4K, HDR and Wide Color Spectrum, called Ultra HD and Ultra HD Premium. Sometimes just UHD for short. That’s why you often see TVs labeled as UHD instead of just 4K HDR. (And side note, if you want to know about HDR we have a separate episode of Know A Little More about HDR TV)
The UHD Alliance also tries to educate consumers about the best settings for their home theater, including at a website called “experienceuhd.com”
And on August 27, 2019, it announced a new project to create a new viewing mode for all TVs, called Filmmaker Mode, or FMM for short.
The UHD Alliance wanted to create an easy way for viewers to set their TVs so that movies looked right. It partnered up with the Directors Guild of America, The Film Foundation, the International Cinematographers Guild, and the American Society of Cinematographers. So it was the folks who knew the tech combined with the folks who knew movies.
At CES 2020, months before the lockdowns began, TV manufacturers including Vizio, LG, Samsung, Panasonic and Philips introduced Filmmaker Mode for their coming TV models.
With one setting, sometimes one button and sometimes even automatically, all the post-processing features that muck with a film’s looks are turned off.
You may wonder why there is all this post-processing at all. The short version is that some video content benefits from it. Post-processing can emulate extra frames which makes things like live sports look better. Most of these try to match the frame rate to the TVs refresh rate, anywhere from 60 to 120 Hertz. The theory goes that motion looks most natural to our eyes when it’s 60 frames per second. Which is why amping up the frame rate to 60 helps live stuff look good.
But films have a long history of being shot at very close to 23.967 frames per second. We generally round that to 24. You often hear it called 24 p.
There are all kinds of theories as to why 24 frames per second became the standard for film. The earliest silent films were anywhere between 16 and 26 frames per second, varying based on the speed of the person cranking the projector. The range came about as the cheapest for film stock, but still enough to look like things were moving fairly smoothly. When sound came to films they had to pick a standard to hit because the sync got weird if the frame rate varied, so they settled on 24, which was right in the middle of what movie projectionists were achieving at the time.
Some folks theorize that 24 stuck because it’s smooth enough, but also requires your brain to work to fill in frames, since 60 is the natural rate. Theoretically that extra brain work engages us more in movies. 24 also might have stuck around for a long time because it’s cheap. You use less film to achieve it. But for whatever reason it stuck. And now, we’re all trained to expect a film to look like 24 frames per second. Anything else looks odd. See The Hobbit movies.
Plus post-processing can often introduce inaccurate frames which can cause artifacts and blurriness. Not as big of a deal in a live soccer match, but noticeable in movies.
So you have this situation where you might want post-processing or even certain aspect ratios or color settings for certain content but it doesn’t work well for movies.
Let’s say you have your settings tuned for all that hockey you watch. If you watch a streaming movie or Blu-ray on that same device, it’s a pain to dig into settings to adjust it. And then adjust it back when you’re done
Filmmaker mode solves for that.
Now you may be saying “well video game mode already turns off post-processing, why not use that?” It does, but with the goal of reducing latency. Something important for video games. But latency is not important for your movie-enjoying experience. Filmmaker mode doesn’t care about latency, it cares about preserving the image. To optimize for latency uses slightly different settings than optimizing for image quality.
OK so we know why we might want filmmaker mode, but what does it actually do?
Keep in mind that Filmmaker mode is designed by filmmakers, so the ideal situation is a darkened room like a theater. There’s a planned update to filmmaker mode for those of you who insist on watching movies in a bright room, but for now, filmmaker mode is tuned for a dark theater-like experience.
When you engage filmmaker mode, here’s what it does
It respects the source content’s frame rate and aspect ratio. That means it won’t stretch the picture or try to insert frames.
It turns off motion smoothing. Just off. No interpolating.
It sets the gamma control (which controls how quickly the video signal transitions from dark to light) to a preset called BT1886, and reduces peak brightness to 100 nits. This is bad in bright light, but again in a darkened room it keeps the shadows from looking gray.
It turns off sharpening and noise reduction. These generally fix one problem while introducing others. They’re only useful, if they’re ever useful at all, with degraded video. You’re streaming movies and Blu-rays are not degraded video.
It only allows overscan if the image signals for it
It turns off any other image enhancements a particular TV might have by default.
And it sets the white point at D65/6500K. This is the white balance. It makes the color temperature not too warm, not too cool but just right.
Now. You can tweak these settings yourself after filmmaker mode is engaged- you know to turn the brightness back up or something– but that kind of defeats the point of having an easy one button or automatic solution.
Keep in mind that all these settings are independent of other aspects of your picture, like HDR10, Dolby Vision, etc. These settings work separately from the effects of HDR and such.
Great. What TV makers get to use it?
Filmmaker mode is available for any device manufacturer to implement, so it works the same across devices. Most members of the UHD Alliance who make displays are implementing it, though not all. Sony being an early holdout.
New TVs in 2020 were the first to ship with Filmmaker mode. As of January 2022, Filmmaker Mode is available in all new LG and Samsung TVs as well as some models from Hisense, Panasonic, Philips/TP Vision and Skyworth; projectors from Benq and Hisense; and services including Kaleidescape and Prime Video. And some airline displays are supposed to get it in 2023.
If you have one of these TVs with filmmaker mode, it’s dead simple to use. There is either a button on the remote or even better, the TV reads metadata in the content and asks if you’d like to apply filmmaker mode and then automatically apply it from then on. Most TVs will have both options. And of course if you’re not using the remote or want to apply it to content without the metadata, you can activate it in settings. Which is still easier than tweaking each of those settings individually.
Finally, what if you have an old TV? While theoretically it could be added in a firmware update it doesn’t look like that’s going to happen.
However you may have a setting that’s almost the same or even identical to filmmaker mode under another name. It won’t have the easy one button or automatic aspect but at least you could apply it to films when you need to.
On LG for example, this is called Technicolor Expert Mode. (I Know.)
Oh and about that requirement to sit in a dark room to watch movies. In 2022, The UltraHD Alliance began phase 2 development of Filmmaker mode to make it work in bright rooms. Since some of you out there just refuse to put in blackout curtains or turn off all the lights when you watch movies. The idea is to use ambient light sensors present in many TVs to automatically adjust brightness to the optimal setting.
So that’s filmmaker mode!
Filmmaker mode is not going to magically fix every issue you have with a movie. Certainly not the plot. But there are also visual quirks specific to the type of display you have like an OLED or LCD. Filmmaker mode won’t make LCD black levels darker. And experts can certainly tweak a few detailed settings here and there to suit the room you’re in better. The color controls of filmmaker mode particularly are considered a little generic.
But at least with Filmmaker mode right now, you’re getting the right white balance and aspect ratio and a simple way to set the baseline so it’s closer to what the filmmaker would find acceptable.
In other words, I hope you know a little more about Filmmaker mode.

Transcript:
I went to a restaurant and they said their menu was a little box full of boxes.
How am I supposed to read that.?
Someone said point my phone at it?
Confused?
Don’t be, let’s help you Know A Little More about QR Codes.
The “QR” in QR code stands for Quick Response code. It was invented by Masahiro Hara of the Denso Wave subsidiary of Japan’s Denso automotive parts company in 1994. He was inspired by the black and white patterns created when playing the game Go. The original application of the QR code was to identify parts in auto manufacturing at high speed.
The QR code is a type of 2D or matrix barcode, as opposed to the widespread UPC bar code you see a lot of, which is considered a 1D bar code. A 1D bar code is read in one dimension. So with UPC a laser horizontally the series of varying widths of black and white bars. Whereas a 2D barcode is read vertically and horizontally and uses rectangles, dots, hexagons and other patterns.
The big advantage of a 2D bar code is it can hold more information and deliver it quicker than a 1D bar code.
A QR code uses black squares called data modules arranged in a square grid on a white background. The background should extend outside the square in what’s called a “quiet zone” to make it easy to detect what’s actually part of the QR code’s matrix. You can encode four standard types of input data or “encoding modes:” numeric, alphanumeric, byte/binary and kanji.
The maximum amount of information you can encode depends on which of these inputs you’re using as well as your level of error correction and the dimensions of the grid. Grid dimensions are described by a level number from 1- 40. With level 1 having 21 by 21 data modules and each level adding 4 until you get level 40 with 177 x 177 data modules.
Maximum capacity can be found with the 40-L numeric encoding which encodes just numbers at the maximum dimensions of the grid with the lowest error correction. It can hold 7089 characters. The Alphanumeric version of the same thing holds 4,296 characters. Most QR codes you see in everyday life are around versions 2-5 and usually hold between 20 to 100 characters, enough for a shortened URL.
Because a QR code is two dimensional you need an image sensor to detect it. Since almost every phone now has a camera, the phone has become the most familiar way QR codes are scanned.
A Reed-Solomon error correction process is used to interpret the pattern. Reed-Solomon is also used in CDs, Blu-ray Discs, DSL and RAID 6. In QR codes there are four levels of error correction L is the lowest restoring approximately 7% of data, M is the middle at 15%, Q is the next up at 25% and H is the highest at 30%. This is going to offend statisticians and data professionals but you can roughly think of it as if up to 7% of the data is damaged the L error correction will still let you read the data. In practice most QR codes seem to use M. I guess they assume if more than 15% of that sticker is damaged you might as well get a new menu sticker.
But let’s get into how that pattern of blocks gets turned into your restaurant menu or wifi password or name of a conference room or whatever. The whole QR code is made up of just those blocks, called data modules, either black squares or empty white spaces.
You might have noticed there are always three distinctive larger squares in the corners of a QR code, Those are position markers. They are used along with a smaller square or set of squares in the fourth corner to calibrate the size, orientation and angle in which the pattern is being viewed.
Now your QR code reader, likely your phone’s camera, knows where the code is and can adjust for how big it looks in your camera. It can even do these adjustments on the fly as your unsteady hand wavers over the restaurant table.
Next it needs to know some things about what kind of encoding and error corrections and such were used. This way it can interpret the data correctly.
The mode indicator is placed in the bottom right indicating the input type. Other format information like error correction quality and character count is placed near the three squares. These are done as a sequence of 4 bit indicators.
That stuff is always the same and lets the reader know whether to look for numbers, alphabets kanji whatever and how much will be redundant error correction code
Now it’s time to read the whole point of this exercise. The data. The thing. The link to the menu. The kind of auto part this is. The WiFi Password!
In the space remaining after the position markers and format data, the encoded data is placed from right to left in a zigzag pattern until it reaches an end indicator. The amount of bits used for your data varies by the type of input. So numbers can get 3 digits into 10 bits, alphanumeric gets 2 characters into 11 bits and so on. You can even switch encoding types if you need to. Just throw in another 4-bit indicator.
You often need to mix input types because alphanumeric can only do capital case and 8 punctuation marks. So to do anything beyond that you need to use bytes which takes up more bits.
And that’s it, once the reader has interpreted all that it has the data and then the reader goes from there whether that’s showing you a URl you can tap or a wiFi password you can enter or the name “brake pad.”
You may wonder who keeps track of how that all works so that every reader works with every QR code.
QR codes have been standardized multiple times over the years. The first time was in October 1997 issued by the Association for Automatic Identification and Mobility, followed by one in January 1999 from JIS or Japanese Industrial Standards. And then the heavy, the International Standards Organization, or ISO issued its first standard in June 2000 and most recently updated it on February 1st, 2015.
Denso freely licenses QR code tech as long as users follow either the JIS or ISO standards. While Denso holds patents on the technology, it waived its rights for standardized codes and its patents in the US and Japan have already expired.
Denso does still hold the trademark on the name QR code and maintains some proprietary, non-standard implementations. But the ones you mostly see are standards-compliant.
You probably figured this out but QR codes are static. Once they’re printed, they don’t change. Even if you made an animated GIF of a QR code, the reader would just keep trying to show you the latest one. Once you make a QR code it’s meant to stay that way. Which makes them great for permanent information, which is why they were very good at parts identification. This is a shock absorber and we have very little expectation it will suddenly become a brake pad so we can slap a QR code on it so the assembly robots know what it is.
However at some point folks had the bright idea to encode URLs into QR codes. Why not? URL’s are just alphanumeric strings after all. Now, the URLs are still static. But any URL can be made to point to a different thing over time by redirecting it. Knowalittlemore.com for instance points to the ACast site where the podcast lives. I could change that to point to the daily tech news show blog posts about the show instead, if I wanted. So URLs sort of bring in the idea of a dynamic QR code, and so some people refer to static vs. dynamic QR codes. Let’s be clear, they’re all static. So when someone says a QR code is dynamic, it just means it has a URL. The code itself isn’t actually dynamic. But it points to a URL that you know you can redirect to different things. This is helpful for say, a restaurant that changes its menu.
It is also helpful for malicious types who want to do crimes and other malicious behavior.
As I think is clear by now, QR codes themselves are not risky as they only hold static data. QR code readers when working properly would prevent unauthorized executions of that data and there’s not a lot of leeway to make a very capable executable anyway. So the bigger worry is the URL. The practice of encoding URLs in QR codes is widespread, dare we speculate it is the norm, and that means the same risks that come in clicking any URL anywhere come with QR codes. One weakness could be a third party QR code reader that let its permission down a little. But even the most buttoned-down from the OS manufacturer built into the camera app QR code reader –can just take you to a malicious site like any email text message or link on the web.
As such you should only scan QR codes if you’re certain of the source. QR code stickers out in the world might be legitimate or might have been stuck there by someone malicious, possibly over the legitimate code. This doesn’t mean you should never scan a QR code in public but use secure QR code readers and look carefully at the link you’re being sent to before tapping it.
Some malicious links can look to you like they operate normally while engaging in malicious behavior like accessing your browser history or sending text messages without your knowledge.
It’s also good to doublecheck the URL after you tap to make sure it took you where you expected to go. Don’t just look at the graphics or the site layout, those can be faked. And resist the urge to log in, pay for something or download an app from a QR code link. Those are all popular scam vectors. There are legitimate times to use QR codes for that, but you need to be very sure about the legitimacy of the code before you do any of those.
And finally keep in mind that while the actual scanning of a QR code leaks no data, using a QR code to go to a website exposes all the same kinds of data as any visit to a website. Like your IP address, kind of browser and device, etc. This is no worse than browsing the web mind you, but something to keep in mind.
Finally , there are a few variations on the QR code you may encounter.
The Micro QR code holds a very small amount of info but doesn’t take up space so it’s often used on small items. It only has one positioning square in the upper left corner.
Denso Wave has a proprietary version called the IQR code that can be square or rectangular. It works well on cylindrical objects and holds more information than the standard QR Code.
And Frame QR codes take advantage of the error correction process to allow for a canvas area that can be used for logos, graphics etc.
QR codes are just bug dumb links in the world made of squares. Treat them like any big dumb link you’d find anywhere.
In other words, I hope you know a little more about QR codes.
Netflix reports it lost 200,000 subscribers in Q4 of 2021 falling and expects to lose another 2 million this quarter. What’s behind the falling subscribership?

I keep hearing about self-driving cars
Some are on Autopilot but others have reached level 5 or something?
Is that a video game? Are self-driving cars rated on video game playing?
Confused?
Don’t be Let’s help you know a little more about Levels of Driving Automation.
Autonomous cars are cars that can drive themselves. But some can drive themselves more than others. So over the years organizations have tried to define levels of autonomy so you know just how autonomous and reliable a car’s self-driving capabilities are.
There have been different definitions over the years and of course every car manufacturer has its own brand names on top of these.
But the good news is that in the last few years the Society of Automotive Engineers or SAE has published Levels of Driving Automation that have become the standard that all the brand names and shortcuts refer back to.
SAE J3016 Recommended Practice: Taxonomy and Definitions for Terms Related to Driving Automation Systems for On-Road Motor Vehicles was launched in 2014 but you can call it SAE Level of Driving Automation for short. It occasionally gets refined and clarified but it generally is holding up as the easy way to signal how capable an autonomous driving feature is. The most recent revision is J3016_202104 released in April 2021.
There are 5 levels, well 6 if you count Level 0. Let’s go through them here with a rough (and engineers please bear with me as I oversimplify a little here and there) I say again rough explanation of what each level means.
Level 0 is the easiest. It’s manual. No automation. Though we don’t mean a stick shift from the 1960s. It can still have advanced features. The car may tell you things or even do a few things but it doesn’t do any driving. So blind spot warning, lane departure warning, these are are still cool under level 0. In fact even automatic emergency braking is still level 0 according to SAE’s graphic on this. These are momentary warnings and brief assistance. The level 0 features have no sustained control over the car.
Level 1 can do some more sustained assistance. So lane centering brings a car up to level 1 since its adjusting the steering on an ongoing basis. Cruise control counts here because it can speed up and slow the car for you. You’re still steering or braking the car but the car can jump and help with these– one at a time. It can center you in the lane. It can maintain speed with cruise control. But here’s a key, it doesn’t do both at the same time. Parking assistance is level 1 because it only steers while you control the speed.
These first two levels are defined as Assistance. Level 2 is the first one that uses the word Automation and that’s because it can do more than one thing at a time. If the car can maintain cruising speed AND Center you in the lane that’s level 2. That’s because it can steer accelerate and brake when it needs to. It’s not just monitoring one thing. So SAE kind of considers that doing a little bit of driving for you. This level is confusingly called Hands off or Autopilot sometimes but it’s really neither. One key to level 2 is the driver is always responsible. The system is not considered reliable enough to operate unsupervised.
Level 3 is the first one where you can relax (sometimes) and not have to supervise to maintain safety (sometimes). With Level 3, under limited conditions, the car can drive itself. However one of the things that makes it level 3 is that even if the conditions are met it can’t always drive itself, so you have to be ready to take over. There still needs to be human in the driver seat with a steering wheel and pedals. A common example of this is traffic jam driving. On a controlled access highway the car can speed up and slow down as needed to keep you moving through traffic. It is considered reliable enough that you don’t need to pay full attention. But at certain times, like maybe after you get off the highway, the human driver may have to take over. One important thing about Level 3 is it doesn’t mean you can fully take your eyes off the road. But maybe now you could take your hands off the steering wheel.
Level 4 is real autonomous driving. If certain conditions are met, the car can drive itself and it will not operate if those conditions aren’t met. A good example here is an autonomous taxi service in a predefined and well mapped region. Within that region the taxi doesn’t need a human driving it, and it won’t operate outside the region. This is the first level where you might have a car without a steering wheel and a pedal. It can’t drive everywhere. It’s not a general purpose vehicle. But within it’s parameters it can go without needing a human driving. Outside it’s parameters it can safely pull to the side of the road and stop for instance.
Level 5 is the holy grail that some people say we may never actually achieve. Level 5 means a vehicle can drive reliably and safely everywhere under all conditions in which a human can drive now. I can’t drive in a blinding blizzard so no the Level 5 system won’t either. But it doesn’t need predefined regions or special conditions and it doesn’t need a human or a steering wheel or pedals.
Let’s go back over those last few again. Level 3 means the human doesn’t always have to supervise. The car however may tell you to take back control so you need to be ready to do that. The driver is not relieved of all responsibility. Level 4 means the human does not have any responsibility anymore. The car will just stop itself if it meets conditions it can’t drive in. And Level 5 can drive pretty much anywhere in any condition a human could and doesn’t need a human to do it.
Right now most cars that you can buy have level 2 features or lower. Even those with traffic jam assistance and lane keeping assistance are usually not reliable enough for the human to be relieved of the responsibility of having their hands on the wheel. Level 3 vehicles do exist though. Mercedes-Benz and Honda were the first two manufacturers to get regulatory approval for level 3 services. Honda got it for its Traffic Jam Pilot in Japan in November 2021 and Mercedes got it in Germany for Automated Lane Keeping that it calls Drive Pilot in December 2021.
Level 4 systems are limited to tests with certain buses in limited commercial parks and some small suburban routes by Waymo vehicles. And Level 5 doesn’t exist yet.
A few more things to keep in mind regarding these definitions. They are designed to describe the level of human interaction and capability of the system to drive on roads. They aren’t a measure of value or quality. A really tricked out Level 0 car may be a better car than a really minimal Level 4 bus.
And they’re not measures of safety. Level 2 is a big minefield for this. There are loads of arguments about how safe the implementations of Tesla’s Level 2 features are. SAE levels don’t have anything to say about that.
It’s also worth pointing out that the Levels are meant to apply to features not cars. The driver assistance may be Level 3 but that doesn’t make the car Level 3 overall. It may only have Level 0 for all its other features. That might seem like a distinction without a difference but you might find it useful if you found yourself shopping for a car with Level 3 features. That Mercedes Automated Lane Keeping is Level 3 up to 37 miles per hour on designated highways in Germany. The rest of the time it’s not a level 3 car.
And finally if you see Level 2.5 or Level 2+ those are actually prohibited by the SAE. So they’re just marketing terms, not official designations.
But with all these caveats the levels are useful and used often to delineate just how capable a car’s features and systems are. So hopefully it’s helpful that now, you know a little more about Levels of Driving Automation.
