> How do we compete in a global market when the regulatory atmosphere is so lopsided?

Not everything is always a solely economic issue.

Without standards, it will just become a race to the bottom about who can cut the most corners, care the least about the environment, and accordingly, will end up doing the most damage to it.

It's also a ultimately greedy motive, so while greed might not play a role now, it would most certainly play one in a race to the bottom.

> I want to know what stuff you guys are putting in public GitHub FOSS repos that you don't want replicated in any way...

Please feel free to use my code in any way that its license permits: attribution for the permissive licenses, share-and-share-alike for the copyleft licenses. Those license terms are the price of the code, no different from a proprietary product's "this costs $x" or "this costs $x/month". I'm happy to give away most of what I work on every day, and I ask that people 1) give credit, and 2) in some cases, share under the same terms, and 3) in many cases, don't sue me or other users of code I've written over software patents (which shouldn't exist).

If the day comes that copyright goes away, and we can freely copy and share the code of any currently proprietary software and other works, I'd celebrate that. Until then, I don't want an asymmetric situation in which proprietary licenses must be adhered to but Open Source licenses are ignored.

Chickens are animals. We know we did not create them as mechanisms.

If AI programs are sentient, then to treat them in anyway other than 'free persons' is no different than the bad old days of denying rights to women and slaves. It has to go all the way.

Neovim has already been very productive by giving Vim some good competition and in so doing having better features come out in Vim.

To me it doesn't make sense to 'hate' neovim for wanting to develop features that they tried to have in Vim but couldn't due to the main developer stalling it.
Or, if you backed off certain regulations perhaps there could be 300 ships still with better conditions than all other ships. Far greater good overall.

What is the intersection where there becomes more bad ships and less good ships because we fail to see the tipping point?

Have we created a better situation or in our determination to be vastly superior in our regulatory manner have actually created more bad?

Governor Schwarzenegger was from LA (after being from Austria of course), still lives there (West Side I believe), and had/has most of his network there.

> When you join GitHub you accept their ToS which among many things gives them the rights to use your code for stuff like Copilot.

I get so many "our terms of service changed" emails and they link to a 30+ page document with not even a diff of what changed. I vaguely remember GitHub sending one out maybe in December 2019 but it linked directly to https://docs.github.com/en/site-policy/github-terms/github-t... and didn't even hint what was different so the only way you'd be able to know what changed is by re-reading every single word.

This is one of those things where you technically agree by continuing to use their service but no one can realistically be expected to read a 30+ page document for the 20 services they do every time a provider updates their terms without a diff. You'd be reading one of these at least once a week.

The email I got from GitHub also didn't include "pilot" anywhere in the body of the email and neither do their current terms of service, so now you need to be able to decipher whatever wording they use to translate back to "co-pilot". After all that I also have lots of emails from noreply@github.com and searching my inbox for emails from that with "terms" in the subject doesn't show anything related to co-pilot.

I'm not a lawyer but I can't imagine if you agree to the terms today but 3 months from now new terms have been added -- you don't passively start accepting those terms without an explicit action to say you do after you've been notified of the changes.

This is the problem with "no politics at work": work has political salience. Politics concerns regulation of the world and work happens in the world.

Whenever an executive starts complaining[1] about how politics is impacting their workplace I see management incompetence. Politics exists. It exists for everyone. If your company is having an unusually difficult time getting work done in a given political environment, the conditions that are causing that probably have more to do with the company environment than politics writ large.

Prohibition is always a largely ineffective policy. People have feelings about the world. If you can't find a way to make space for those feelings somehow they will make their own space, often at the least convenient moment.

In the 1990s I attended a technical high school. We did technical drawing by hand (and by square) until the fourth year, and then we switched to CAD, mainly because the school had purchased a good number of computers with intel i386 and i486 processors--there was some competition to use 486s, let me tell you.

CAD was also starting to become popular among architects and professional engineers; for the new generation it was the tool of choice, while for the older generation it was a tool to be skeptical about.

Drawing by hand when CAD is available is a waste of time. It is just that the "old" professionals, genius or not, do not want to learn the new technology and look for any foothold that can justify their staying in the technological past.
One tricky part with fermented foods is that the salty ones appear to increase rates of colon and stomach cancer as I recall.

I read something years ago about how as the Japanese population adapted a more western diet, heaps of ailments came upon them as you’d expect, but their salt intake declined so dramatically that they stopped experiencing stroke and GI tract cancers nearly as much.

I think you’d need to pin down just how much salt was causing those issues though and then ask if the benefits of the salty fermented foods outweigh the current problem of having depleted gut microbiomes and atrocious diets.

So, I’m certainly not suggesting everyone avoid salty fermented foods. I eat (and make) a fair amount myself and as I alluded above, I suspect it’s better for me than eating food that is, on balance, worse for me.

There’s no perfect diet, but there are clearly worse diets. I try to avoid the latter.

Your experience its quite limited and you probably need to know how to properly update ubuntu since most of the issues I've found with it (since I started using it ~12 years ago) are usually issues caused by lack of drivers (which gets solved in 15 minutes once you know where to click) once those are solved it is sturdy and you can keep it runing for several months without having to restart it or it becoming unusably slow as it hapens with windows systems after about 4 days of uptime

I don't think that sentence refers to illegal abortion clinics; I think they're referring to state laws that attempt to punish out-of-state abortions (https://www.usnews.com/news/national-news/articles/2022-05-1...).

That said, a clinic is more like a house that burns down several times daily, which dramatically expands the scope of any such warrant.

Congress has been purposefully broken by Republican's new requirement that all legislation must receive supermajority approval in the senate.

I think Neovim had a whole bunch of other reasons to split. I'm pretty sure that Neovim's server mode, which allows it to be used with other editor frontends, is simply not present in vim. For me this is the whole reason to use Neovim. But I think it also natively supports tree sitter and/or LSPs, which really improve the coding experience.

Anyway iirc Neovim wanted these features integrated into Vim itself and only started a separate project when it became clear that that wasn't going to happen. My understanding was that at the time Bram was hostile to lots of the changes that people wanted integrated.

> And has been growing 30% YoY for the last 3~4 years alone.

Growing revenue while still not making a profit is not impressive. If you give me $100 today I can go out a buy $100 a pair of new shoes, and sell it for $70. Give me $200 and I'll go out and by two pairs of shoes and sell them for both $84 (total)! Keep giving me money and you'll continue to see this growth I promise!

> This is unheard of in any other industry/market

Given my example above, that should be a warning, not a sign of success.

I find it mind-boggling that people can really not even grasp that growing revenue with out demonstrating you can transform that revenue into profit doesn't mean all the much.

Grow profits every year by 30% and I'll be impressed.

I read that the dots team went dark over a year ago. People are speculating that the whole thing was either canceled, or they are planning to release a completely separate game engine rather than try and shoehorn it into the GameObject model.
I worked making J2ME phone games back then. There was definitely an element of going back to games of 10-20 years before.

What if the suggestions menu crashes? Have you considered the extra RAM that is being used that could go further towards solving business problems? What if the curated menu of autosuggestions doesn't contain what you need?
What I mean is that the R1000 memory architecture is not fundamentally different from modern hardware in a way that seems to solve any modern design problems. The tag RAM is functionally equivalent to the TLB on a modern CPU, but it's much larger relative to the size of the RAM it's used with. The 2MB memory boards described in US Patent 4,736,287 (presumably an earlier version of the 32MB boards present in the R1000/s400) have a whopping 2K tag RAM entries. This is the same size as the 2nd level data TLB in Zen 2 which is supporting address lookup for a much larger main memory.

If you were to try and make a modern version of the R1000 architecture you're going to run into the same size vs speed tradeoffs that you see in conventional architectures. The server oriented Rome SKus of Zen 2 support 4 TB max RAM. Even if you bump the page size to 4MB, you still would need 1M TLB/tag RAM entries to support that with an R1000-style implementation.
I don't think that the insurers for those extended warranties are the same as the legitimate ones that a consumer would normally go to for insurance. That's assuming there's even a product that's being sold, and not someone just calling people, pocketing the money, and running away with it.

Residential water is being rationed, but it won't make a dent unless we address that 70%, which to make it worse, loses half of that to evaporation and inadequate distribution networks. Solve the most glaring wasters and you don't need massive desalination anymore.

If the Constitution doesn't give Congress the authority to do something (as it certainly wouldn't in your example, see Article I Section 8 [1]), it's the job of the Court to strike down the law no matter how many people would like the law.
