Is that the value proposition of modern games? 90m of content? I don't buy many new games, but I'd have thought that there was a higher ask of a game than just getting 90m out of it.

I mean, I understand your point. My friend bought a used Mac once, and it had Sim-City on it. We hadn't seen it before and we fell into a black hole of playing it for 3 hours straight before someone accidentally kicked the plug.

"Well, that's that!" and I can attest that none of us really went back to it. It certainly kept our interest for 3 hours though.
I found it interesting when I checked Gnome and KDE orgs on github that by far most KDE repos are C++ and most Gnome repos are C (some Vala).

Resurrecting a mammoth?
Remember DeCSS[1] and later how AACS LA successfully litigated the banning of a number[2]? There was a lot of backlash in the form of distributing DeCSS and later the AACS key, but the DMCA and related WIPO treaties were never repealed and are still used to do things like take youtube-dl repos offline.

Even pretty draconian legislation can stand if it doesn't affect the majority of the country and is supported by powerful industry groups. I could definitely see some kind of compiler licensing requirement meeting these criteria.

This may sound sort of “old man waves at cloud” of me but one thing I’ve found sad is the gross over-complication of later versions of standards such that the sort of project linked here may not be as practical for something like HTTP/3 for example. Similarly, the large, muddled tool chain that is “required” to make modern JavaScript applications makes it hard for newer learners to really understand what is going on because the minimal code version still needs its own transpiler, build system, linter, process managers, etc. Maybe we need all this complexity, but I suspect that some of the overzealous, solve-everything systems design we have come accustomed to is mainly serving to create a larger problem set instead of creating elegant abstractions that are agreed upon.
I have a question, AI is not exclusively to use with data from the internet right?, eg you can throw a bunch of text and ask to order it on a table with x columns, this will need data from the internet? I guess not, you can self host and use it exclusively with your data

Preserving the open web through Drupal
Because there’s no better marketing for a probabilistic (dumb) language model than the idea that it’s so powerful it needs to be regulated.

Just as Steve Jobs used to say when the media was constantly stoking fears about the power of personal computers in the 1980s—“you can just throw it out the window.”

Yet, he simultaneously took advantage of that media hysteria when signing off on what is considered the best commercial of all time- “1984 won’t be like 1984 because Apple”

Essentially what OpenAI is doing right now in Washington (ie. stoking the fear and also selling the solution).

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

This could also just be a simplification for the purposes of this announcement.

They mention this being mostly about security and preventing the use of hacked accounts, and they mention these dormant accounts that were only created and then went immediately dormant. It makes sense to me that they are in fact talking about this issue, just not explaining all the detail.
It’s slow as molasses in some parts though. (Deliberately, it’s a trade-off.)

The Unicode part of ICU shouldn’t be that large, however (on the order of hundreds of kilobytes), it’s the locale data that’s big[1]. Does Bun implement ECMA-402 internationalization? Even without locales, one of the largest parts of ICU data is normalization and casing tables, which I think bare ECMAScript does not require. (It does mean bare ECMAScript cannot adequately process Unicode text, but meh, you get what you pay for.)

My argument isn't that regulation in general is bad. I'm an advocate of greater regulation in medicine, drugs in particular. But the cost of public exposure to potentially dangerous unregulated drugs is a bit different than trying to regulate or create a restrictive system around the development and deployment of AI.

AI is a very different problem space. With AI, even the big models easily fit on a micro SD card. You can carry around all of GPT4 and its supporting code on a thumb drive. You can transfer it wirelessly in under 5 minutes. It's quite different than drugs or conventional weapons or most other things from a practicality perspective when you really think about enforcing developmental regulation.

Also consider that criminals and other bad actors don't care about laws. The RIAA and MPAA have tried hard for 20+ years to stop piracy and the DMCA and other laws have been built to support that, yet anyone reading this can easily download the latest blockbuster movie or in the theater.

Even still, I'm not saying don't make laws or regulations on AI. I'm just saying we need to carefully consider what we're really trying to protect or prevent.

Also, I certainly believe that in this case, the widespread public adoption of AI tech has already driven education and adaptation that could not have been achieved otherwise. My mom understands that those pictures of Trump being chased by the cops are fake. Why? Because Stable Diffusion is on my home computer so I can make them too. I think this needs to continue.
> I am not sure what happens if it is found unconstitutional in some of the countries concerned.

The general principle is that EU law takes precedence over national laws, including national constitutions. If a member state finds a law unconstitutional, they have a few options. They could try to convince everyone else to change the law. They could change their constitution. They could leave the EU. Or they could just ignore the law and face the political and financial consequences.

In some sense, the EU is no different from any other legally binding international treaty. It's a package deal, so you can't avoid the aspects you don't like. But because treaties are between sovereign states, it's always possible to leave them.

Thanks for your perspective, I have more orthodox understanding of Marxism that leads to different conclusions but I can see the connections you make as well.
> You want to universally kill people by the millions for making mistakes.

"Making mistakes"? Really? We are talking about repeat violent crime here. This euphemism combined with below frankly makes me more scared of people like /you/ vs someone in prison for something violent. Unreserved, irrational compassion is really no better than irrational, unreserved tribalism - both are evolutionary baggage making the world a worse place.

> This is a perspective completely lacking any empathy and compassion.

1) I don't really see that as a bad thing. This is a policy decision and as such needs to be based on a rational calculation and values, not the feelings known to be hopelessly biased and generally unreliable.

2) Even so, does your perspective have no compassion for future victims of the non-eliminated, non-reformed criminals?

> These are human beings with lives, families, experiences, and have the opportunity for growth and improvement to become a person who can peacefully integrate with society. Giving up on them and murdering them is ridiculous and I really hope you reevaluate your perspective and learn some compassion.

So I take it you are extremely pro-life on abortion (disclaimer, I am very pro-choice), like no abortion even if there's a risk of mother's death?

Cause aside from experiences, fetus has all the same things; in fact its chance of growth an improvement is much higher, if you compare a probabilistic range of outcomes of a new baby vs an existing criminal. That baby could be the guy who cures cancer! Sure, there's health risks for the mother and potential economic burden on society, but given the typical outcomes for criminals (as per original article), there's also a health risk for others and burden on society from keeping them alive. The only difference is criminals already have past experiences. I think for both cases their "future" is a nonsense argument, and experiences don't make any difference.

I really want to get this but I don't

if you're eg experiencing a timeout because your code is calling another service that isn't responding, you can shut down that calling process and restart it all you want, it's not going to really fix the problem, you still need to address why that other service isn't responding? (though it may prevent the VM from being eaten up exclusively by waiting for responses that will never come - is that the idea?)
1. It seems the Bun.file API (https://bun.sh/docs/api/file-io) doesn't provide a way to distinguish between a zero-size file and a file that doesn't exist. Is this right? If it is, it would be nice to have one. It doesn't have to interfere with the lazy loading.

2. Do you cross-compile Bun? If you do, how has your experience been cross-compiling with Zig when you have a C++ dependency?
It really is... Unfortunately there's not perfect answer and any near term solutions will need to include a variety of sources. I also think we should be working on water pipelines as well. Energy preservation is another issue, and where Hydrogen is likely one of the better solutions... but that will require a combination of more effective water filtration and desalinization along with transportation of clean water nearer to where energy is generated.

We should definitely be breaking ground on more nuclear plants in more stable (geographically) locations. I'm less convinced that current solar tech is a better net good considering what goes into building the things. I have similar reservations on electric cars for that matter. I think the tech is very cool and we will go through a lot of revisions.

Of course I also have some skepticism on the eminent dangers of global warming or man's influence in part or whole. Considering there are relatively recent times (about 3-8k years ago) where the understood earth temperature was a bit higher than even the projections for the end of the next couple centuries at worst.

Edit: and I'm still waiting for the flying cars I was promised.
It's not so much against lisp as double curly is a classic string templating style that is common in web programming. I saw it first with `mustache.js` (first release around 2009), but it's probably been used even before that.

we seem to forget history:

1. Who recalls the Jutland battle in early 20th century? We got treaties on limits to battleship building. Naval tech switched to aircraft and carriers.

2. Later mid 20th century Russians tried to scare world into not using microwaves due to their failure to get a patent on the maser. World ignored it and moved forward.

That is just two examples. SA is wrong, progress will move around any prosed regulation or law and that is proven by past history of how we overcome such things in the first place.

I'm no expert, but I'm old and I think that Unix is actually the model that won. Linux won because of Unix IMO, and I think that its too late for the regulators. Not that I understand the stuff but like Unix, the code and the ideas are out there in Universities and even if OpenAI gets their licensing, there will be really open stuff also. So, no worries. Except for the fact that AI itself - well, are we mature enough to handle it without supervision? Dunno.
Isn't these kinda of data points we often miss if we look at correlations in big datasets? They often get dismissed as an a anomaly.

question for all you Rust people. does Rust have a way to use interfaces like Go? For example with Go I can do this:

package hello

type namer interface {
first() string
last() string
}

func name(n namer) string {
return n.first() + " " + n.last()
}

I think I saw on a blog post that Rust can only do this with some hacks, is that true?

There is no single company that dominates a city or market enough to “profit from keeping rental units vacant at scale”. Vacancy rates and driving them down is a massive talking point in investor calls. High vacancy is bad because investors mainly care about rental income. The aforementioned companies achieve 3% or so organic rent growth - which is LOWER than inflation.

You have very little understanding of how the business world works and I’d recommend to take a couple of courses or classes in that field. It’s the same suggestion you would give an MBA type posting his opinion about programming or ML on Hacker News I suppose.

There are strategic investors though that buy run down buildings without any intention of renting them out ever but holding them for speculation. This is wrong and harms society. Land zoned for urbanisation is a right that is granted by society and has implicit value only from society granting these rights. Speculations on these artificially (by said society) limited building permissions needs to be eliminated. The space does not have much “inherent value” in itself (e.g., assuming no building for the ease of argument) - but only gains value by being artificially limited in quantity by society.

No, that a human could be standing near but not in a crosswalk, talking. The law says you must treat them as attempting to cross, even though it is obvious they are not. Caress like this abound.
I see what you’re saying and agree that HTTP3 is complicated but I would that since it’s a backwards compatible standard, the added complexities are completely optional. For most use cases the basic protocol is perfectly suitable and only as the scale evolves does it require the additional complexity.

In which direction? I’ve used both recently and while I prefer the design decisions of KDE/plasma over those made by GNOME3 in almost every case, I definitely noticed more bugs in KDE. I had frozen copies of my mouse cursor left behind when I moved between monitors quickly, for example. Frankly it’s hard to imagine seeing that kind of instantly obvious bug in a stable GNOME build.
Thank you! I'm glad you like the idea.

For sharing with others who don't have the app, the link you send lets them see your card's contact information on the neucards' website which they can act on. So, for example, I typically share my phone number, linked in profile, twitter handle, etc. and that works faster for me than just giving someone my number and texting them the rest. Also, by using card types, you can set up multiple cards (Professional, Personal, Friends, Minimal, etc.) and then have more control over what info you share initially.

I'm very much hoping to add Android and making neucards as universal as possible. Open sourcing would definitely help with that, but I'm taking a wait and see approach. The physical nfc tags were just added and if people embrace them, then it would make that approach more viable.
So, to your point, this law of capping rents would then incentivize landlords to keep rental units vacant? Wow, sounds like exactly the kind of effect one can expect from laws suggested by Red-Red-Green in Berlin that lack any common sense or basic understanding of markets.
We live different paths but the perspective is welcome.
Except that Thiel's axiom refers to founding a business on a strategy to sell something that is truly novel, instead of copying what is already on offer. Being first to market as the primary competitive advantage, other than possible ip. Which are all goals that literally no entrepreneurs would find unsound in any way including morally. Thiel has never expressed support for such artless regulatory capture as a means of squashing competition.

Those interns have a pile of form letters they send for about 99% of (e)mail they get, and if you happen to catch their attention you might get more than than the usual tick mark in a spreadsheet (for/against X). Which at best might be as much as a sentence or two in a weekly correspondence summary which may/may not be read by your representative depending on how seriously they take their job.

All the more reason to oppose regulation like this, since if it were in place the US would fall behind other countries without such regulation.
