Tried osrs ironman mode? Great experience

Yep, and at that point they will be in memory until a reasonable time to clean up. But decrypting the whole password database and leaving it there forever seems needlessly unsafe.

Seems like a pretty basic security precaution to avoid loading decrypted secrets into memory before they're needed. Someone who can access application memory can already own you but there isn't really a good reason why they should be able to access secrets that you never accessed while they were in.

I wouldn't say it's an alarming flaw, just seems weirdly and unnecessarily unsafe

Voyager used bioneural gel packs instead of isolinear circuitry. The ship caught the flu once

A Riemannian manifold isn't necessarily non-Euclidean, it's just a smooth manifold with a Riemannian metric, which is just sort of a way of defining local geometry in a coherent way. Namely it's a smooth family of inner products on the tangent spaces at each point, where an inner product on the tangent space is sort of a way of comparing any two directions at a point and the smoothly varying part means that for sufficiently close points, the comparison function on their respective tangent spaces is similar.

Anyway, like "manifold" is a formalism intended to capture the idea of a "shape or space," a "Riemannian manifold" is just "a shape or space we can do geometry on."

Feeling the pain for a bit will quickly make you comfortable with the numbness

People are using LLMs to diagnose disease, write prescriptions, deny health care claims, deny loans and grants, write scientific papers, review scientific papers, draft engineering and architectural documents, and talk to their loved ones
