This collaboration between a Tuvan throat singer and a bunch of beatboxers from Baltimore is the album you didn’t know you needed to listen to today.

With all systems down because of the #Crowdstike outage, there was nothing to be done at the airport. Phone lines are also fully saturated; I was unable to reach the airline, my credit card concierge, or any hotel reservation line.

I grabbed the first hotel shuttle to the Hyatt Regency SFO. Their computers are down too, of course. I got a room and they wrote down my credit card number on a piece of paper. 🛌

When I see systems failing like this, it's not hard to model the issue using Conway’s Law:

“Organizations which design systems (in the broad sense used here) are constrained to produce designs which are copies of the communication structures of these organizations.”

My poetic interpretation is that the website may have failed because the bus company didn't have a pathway to discuss Amazon SES configurations.

Who's making a LLM-based spam filter plugin for #Spamassassin or #Rspamd?

Gmail has advanced AI-based filtering. Now that LLMs are becoming democratized, I'm ready for a self-hosted AI spam filter.

It seems much more popular to publish research papers on the viability of LLM-based spam filtering than it is to build LLM-based spam filtering software. Here are dozens of papers: https://www.arxiv-sanity-lite.com/?rank=pid&pid=2206.02443 Nothing on GitHub, yet.
