> it's forbidden to do reverse engineering and change the client

First, to play these games (I mean ALL things, touching commercial software development), You must learn, reverse engineering (RE), or hacking, is very special case of laws.

It is like strange matter, or dark matter, nobody seen it, but from some measurements considered, it might exist.

Same is for RE - to sue somebody for it, one MUST provide good enough proof, that this subject really made him LARGE ENOUGH losses, and it is really done by RE.

In real life, this is not always easy to proof losses, it is very subjective thing, so it is even possible, in some WESTERN countries, judges will accept proof, in others will not.

Not exactly for RE or hacking, in most countries exists official formulation - smthing like "worthless sue", may be right word, "negligible", meaning, losses so tiny, it is not worth to proceed and usually judges automatically closing such cases.

Also, in adequate countries, exists exceptions even for publications of Nazy symbols (usually prohibited) - "for scientific purposes", so if You fit, You could proceed without fear.

So You read it wrong. This EULA is for 90% of users, not against hackers (it just will not work against hackers, because, what I said before), and it only mean, if You violate it, for company just will not be possible, to implement their promises which they claimed.

For about enforcement, they could forever ban You from use their services (because of fear, that Your work will affect their services for other persons), and also they could do same thing with Your relatives and other connected persons.

BTW, unfortunately for You, or fortunate (it depends), losses for 3rd parties and even abstract European values, are important for EU and Western judges, so You should be careful, as (depend on case), judge could decide, You doing contra European values, (in this case they will prohibit Your work), or You doing Pro European values, (in this case they will decide, You could proceed).
Talking to the "regular" police and talking to a federal investigator are two completely different things. At the federal level they have "false or misleading statements"[0] which is a felony with a five year max. People have been convicted and done prison time on this alone based on nothing other than the notes and testimony from a federal investigator. At the state level probably the best they have is "obstruction of justice"[1] which requires things like physically interfering with the police or destroying evidence and even those actions have lesser penalties than "false or misleading statements".

I have a friend who is a federal criminal investigator and his advice when/if the feds show up is to say nothing other than "Do you have a business card? Someone will be in touch." and get a lawyer ASAP.

From a purely networking perspective, there are far better solutions than tailscale.

Have a look at full mesh VPNs like:

https://github.com/cjdelisle/cjdns

https://github.com/yggdrasil-network/yggdrasil-go

https://github.com/gsliepen/tinc

https://github.com/costela/wesher

These build actual mesh networks where every node is equal and can serve as a router for other nodes to resolve difficult network topologies (where some nodes might not be connected to the internet, but do have connections to other nodes with an internet connection — I work with networks like that every day).

Sending data through multiple routers is also possible. They also deal with nodes disappearing and change routes accordingly.

tailscale (and similar solutions like netbird) still use a bunch of "proxy servers" for that. You can set them up on intermediate nodes, but that have to be dealt with manually (and you get two kinds of nodes). You also have to create routes for the node to be able to access the control server.
I'm not sure Singh should be held accountable. He is a programmer. He coded what his boss told him to.

This isn't like coding a bomb to kill people, where the programmer clearly has an ethical choice.

Singh was an employee, whose bosses had the job of ensuring what they asked him to do was legal, and he was not obliged to consider the ethics or legality with full view of the "big picture" nor even know or take the "big picture" into account.

That's the bosses job, that's why they're paid more, that's why they take more risk, that's why they may end up in prison.

Even where Singh knew something was up, it wasn't his place to be a financial expert. That's what the company's senior staff are supposed to be. Even where Singh had a partial knowledge or view of the entire company/companies or the legal framework they operated in, in his role as a programmer he was not obliged to have a full view (nor could he have).

This partial view of what's going on means his decisions can not be in full consideration. It's the bosses job to make the consideration. They failed.

To judge Singh in hindsight as if he knew everything we know now, or that the courts will come to know, is bizarre.
It wouldn’t be such a bad idea to take laissez-faire all the way to workers. Abolish bullshit jobs but foster ones that are meaningful to people.
Who else had this experience.

Cool - Game Of Life on my phone. Some pretty cool patterns. Recursion? Don't see it. But look - I can zoom out. Wow, that's a pretty large pattern. Oh shit!

I've not delved into the code. But I am assuming that this is a static model and not actually doing the GOL calculations. Is that correct?

Yes, I use 1p Mobile too - moved from Three after they abandoned their 123 plan.

Have used it for about 10 months and been very happy with it!

(Like the parent, no links with them, and very light user.)
At my last home I had a 5G point nearby and would get faster speeds from that than my fiber internet. But I just moved and it looks like I’m back on LTE.

I have T-Mobile which has unlimited data, though I believe it is slowed after 20gb (unless they’ve changed it).

The hot spotting is 10gb built in and above that I have a per gig charge I believe.
It's not supposed to do so.

In Wolfram Alpha / search engines there are some ifs which takes numerical part of question and feed it into some calculator something. ChatGPT probably does not have these ifs so it's pure guessing.
Nobody knows. As I understand it so far the primary approach has been to just throw more data at it and tweak it until the output is good enough.

The forest being missed here for the trees is that specialized AI is probably a much better solution to most problems unless your problem is literally replacing humans.
True, by the way do you have some sort of alert or just happened upon this thread? (Re: the topicality of your username)
I think there’s a misunderstanding in how chatgpt works. You feed it text, and it outputs what it considers to be a statistically plausible answer. The reason you got that specific answer is because first it tokenizes your string into 2-3 character chunks, and then from its training, it understands that some portion or combination of those tokens produce an answer similar to that, so it believes 0.02002715164 is statistically plausible in response. It doesn’t understand anything more than weights and biases, so it can’t math, only text.
Just like any other tax enforcement works.

It’s leg work, forensic accountants and laws that demand accountability. If the government thinks your cheating your taxes people are tasked to investigate… if the government suspects your cheating the 100% billionaire tax they would assign people to the task and investigate.

I don’t know why people pretend this has to be special… like billionaires are supervillains with unbelievable power to conceal their globe spanning networks and operations.
> It’s about a high enough number to get agreement.

But don't you think it's a little too easy to select the number so that there are so few people impacted that their opinion on the matter won't count either way? And so that you personal won't be impacted either?
Not really, in court filings there are text messages with him pretty clearly discussing his rationale.

I was refering to US as a great example of a country starting with lots of IP theft then closing the door behind them by making it illegal and pushing the updated IP rights on other countries.

I'm not a US hater at all, I think it's an amazing country, but it's also a great example of how to build one.

....you do realize that's already the reality of living in the UK, right? Your provider has to verify you are over 18 to enable "adult" content on your connection, so your mobile operator has to see some ID or you need to have a valid DD linked to a bank account, and the Snoopers Charter made it so that all operators in this country have to keep your entire browsing history for a full year, and it can be accessed by 17 different government agencies without a warrant.

I'm not defending it - I'm just saying that UK is already a surveilance state and the population at large really doesn't care, at least I have never met anything other than "meh" when I brought it up.
Twitch VODs are only retained for 14 days (or 60 days if you're subscribed to Twitch Turbo).
> Obviously consent can be fabricated (grooming, proxenetism, ...) before the prostitute realizes that they've been sexually exploited and abused. In Europe there is that grooming phenomenon where young girls, often minors are emotionally manipulated by their (older) boyfriend and then asked to prostitute themselves for "love" or just hooked to hard drugs to make them more docile

Sounds like you have a good handle on the actual problem, so why not criminalize that rather than restricting people's agency.

> only by perpetuating sex as a product like toothpaste or a bigmac ...

I'm not sure why you think denigrating the people who don't raise sex on some pedestal is supposed to be convincing. Some people have no problem offering sex as a transactional good like selling big macs, and you haven't actually presented an argument for why that should be universally considered wrong.

Because single implementation languages are toys. Any real language will have a multiplicity of implementations for different purposes. GCC has a ton of development resources behind it; processor makers are familiar with it and often turn to it to bring up new processors and ISAs, etc. Having a GCC front end is a big step in Rust becoming more popular as a systems language.
A MANPAD would already be classified as a destructive device and I doubt you could even find licensed dealer who has one. Since it needs a stamp from the ATF and a licensed dealer needs to handle the transfer, they are effectively already banned.
Unfortunately phone manufacturers (even Apple) are in bed with the carriers and still don't provide VoIP as a first-class option in 2022. VoIP is not as well integrated into the OS as normal cellular calls are, and you can't verify a VoIP number as outgoing number for iMessage/FaceTime either.

Using the OpenAI playground with davinci-003 and the Chat example with temperature set to 0.3, it seems the answers are quite similar, but without it refusing to answer all the time, or needing jailbreaks.

ChatGPT actually lies all the time and says it cannot do things that it actually can do, it's just been trained to lie to say that it can't. Not sure if training an AI to be deceitful is the best way to go about alignment.
Three is widely considered the worst mobile network in the UK. I think they have won #1 worst network for years in a row.
FSF wants to support Rust as a first-class language in GCC, which means their own implementation and ability to bootstrap without dependence on other projects.

Having two independent implementations is good for finding code depending on compiler bugs. The development will also highlight where the Rust language is not documented/specified enough yet.

The GCC implementation may end up with a different design, and perhaps faster compile times, or at least we'll know whether Rust is inherently slow to compile, or is that just rustc. Rustc supporting multiple back-ends can't have as close integration with GCC's back-end as GCC's own front-end.
Of course I did. It is rude to suggest otherwise. Your blanket assertion followed by your long explanation is confusing and less helpful to anyone asking the original question than it would be without it.
They shouldn't treat stablecoins the same. Any one of them can collapse to $0.

ICAO (the UN) set their codes this way. There are 4 letters, the first 2 are a country code.

It doesn't work any better than the 3 letter codes you see on your ticket. It's just different.
It's mostly a personal choice. Any piece of software I write is opened up, and licensed with GPL.

I don't want my software dependent on a non-GPL toolchain to ensure its long term sustainability. I also try to choose GPL licensed libraries, and include everything required to build my code (incl. external libraries) inside my repository.

In the end I want someone to be able to just clone the repo, and run make, or GCC, or what it needs to be run. So, the code is just dependent on the compiler and its standard libraries when obtained by someone.

Lastly, I find LLVM's supporters and general ecosystem slightly hostile towards GCC, and want to replace it anywhere and everywhere possible. I'm a free software advocate, and I prefer LLVM and GCC just to be interchangeable.

Hence I only use languages which GCC supports exclusively or has GPL compilers/interpreters. Working on HPC makes this easier for me.
> There's a pretty big difference between prostitution and other shitty jobs from mental health perspective.

Is there though? Or is it really the circumstances around the sex work that cause these problems, like legislation that forces women to work with pimps for protection, who then get them hooked on hard drugs and physically abuse them.
Competition authorities must force Apple to allow alternative Browser Engines on their platform ASAP and this must include allowing Electron with full access to all Hardware components.
Electron on Desktop and Mobile would be a game-changer - fantastic for Developers and Consumers.
Conflating "buying a service" and "buying people" is a clear sign of the author's confused thinking here.
Why do you think so? While being really senior and very talented will always give you more options and leverage, I’ve met a lot of people at varying stages of their career do part time work.
Easily. Besides being forced to allow sideloading and competing app stores, Apple & Google should be forced to allow competing browser engines and allow for progressive web apps to be installed just like ordinary apps.
It doesn't matter what musk, does it?

musk won't lose popularity amongst his fanboy. They will lick his boots until he's replaced by the next loudmouth.

musk could ban every extremist right-wing tweeter, fire 95% of his employees and not pay any severance then throw bags of dog feces at the laid off engineers' children. They would still love him, hell, they would love him more.

This is a danger of idol worship. Once somebody has achieved influence they almost always use it in a destructive manner.

But hey, he's rich.
Many types of doxing are free speech
assuming there’s more to it when we have a history of there not being more to it seems similarly foolish
This is absolutely laughable. The very opposite is the case:

Wealthy, well connected people, politicians and businesses already can and do transfer and launder money on industrial scales, with only minimal worry about rules like this one, which doesn't even really affect their ability to launder or evade. They can instead use armies of lawyers, accountants, political connections for the high levels at which their laundering and tax evading happens. And if those fail, they can then simply pay whatever fines as a cost of doing business while minimizing convictions of real, actual people behind a business structure.

This cash prohibition rule on the other hand turns many average people across the EU, possibly millions of them in total into potential lawbreakers just because any number of normally, morally non-criminal random circumstances or worries about digital finances being frozen make them want to have and use cash for modestly large transactions.

All of this aside from the flawed reasoning that the state has an innate right to completely strip away financial privacy for the sake of taxes or KYC. It should not have such a right. Tax collection and financial auditing are contextual and imperfect necessities in the context of imperfect government and society, they should not be treated as divine rights of power, to ever be increased without recourse against them.
If lossless, why doesn't LosslessCut export the original media codec and wrapper? Seems to have its own unique file format.

Overlooked NIF fusion pathway comment about fusion yield
An overlooked comment from the announcement at 28:50

"It's possible with a laser system at scale to generate hundreds of megajoules of yield so there is a pathway to a target that produces enough yield."

This is more significant comment in my opinion than the fact lasers can be much more efficient.
Couldn't you say the same about most labor laws? Is it restrictive to my agency that I can't choose to work 80h/weeks with no overtime? Or that I can't choose to work somewhere that pays me less than minimum wage?

In both cases it limits my ability to make personal choices, because we acknowledge that there are power dynamics that can affect/influence my actual freedom of choice. What's the difference here?
> No one needs more than 999 million

It's not like anyone has the money in cash you know.

You should rephrase your statement to "nobody needs more than a billion dollar stake in one or more companies". That is more realistic, and maybe a better discussion can come out of that one.
I’m convinced people don’t like/ read messages closely. They just like sentiment.

So they’re happy to embrace what they think of as say a concept like freedom, even if it is the opposite.

Sorry to hear you had that experience. I’m sure it’s a YMMV type situation and it’s not guaranteed. The few anecdata points I have show that people have done it successfully. But certainly it’s small numbers.
> Assuming free market,

Are you assuming multiple suppliers for that cure or a single supplier?

Very different. In the case of a single supplier - wouldn't it make sense to pay everything you own ( minus what else you need to live ) to survive?

In the case where there were multiple suppliers ( with no collusion between them ) - then the price could be driven down to the cost of production, rather than the value that it brings.

So for example food is essential to live - yet it's cheap.
