The start(-up?)[sic] generates up to $2 billion annually from ChatGPT and an additional $ 1 billion from LLM access fees, translating to an approximate total revenue of between $3.5 billion and $4.5 billion annually.
I hope their reporting is better then their math...
I watched it about 3 weeks ago, though (I can't remember if I'd seen it before), but honestly it was more a point about the editing pace of other modern stuff that people are used to - if that makes sense?
Yeah, there's some limits to what they could do while maintaining pace for the 0 day stuff...
Some input validations would be the most basic things they should have done years ago. I'm aware of the hashing mature vendors do of any content they download for updates or deployments. Signature checking as well, and that's before the code is even inspected - why don't they include their automated tests they obviously aren't using in the update as a sanity check client-side? (I'm not aware of anyone doing this or even if it's possible without the rest of the IDE, stack, I'm no dev)
...sorta. The complexity here is their driver is signed, but it's also loading code from their channel file (that was all zeroed out), and it seems the necessary error checking wasn't implemented.
I haven't yet got to the root cause they published, this is just what I gathered from the video of a retired MS kernel dev who posts stuff.
Obviously with their design it allowed them to be flexible at the cost of playing with fire - I'm impressed they got away with it for so long, really
Well obviously that's about to change, and some of the core product its still fantastic, but their (presumably) greed and process handling around how they deliver changes has failed here.
The product is still good, hopefully they can mature
That horrible abortive fiat multipla, however, will always gather my scorn. Even when discontinued, it was just that ugly with it's 6 headlights and two noses
...you say that like it's a bad thing?
