FWIW, Although I haven't been the the UK in decades and have no connection there I'm a target of two UK lawsuits alleging hundreds of billions of dollars in damages on basis that would be difficult to impossible to domesticate where I reside.

I had to make the difficult decision either to ignore them and potentially risk arrest if I found myself in the UK and risk my assets being seized if they ever ended up under control of a UK exposed entity (perhaps due to an instution I use being acquired by a UK entity), or to fight back and expose myself to legal costs which could be ruinous even in the (likely) case that I win, creating a serious risk that I could lose by virtue of running out of funds. (A situation the claimant has even bragged publicly that he intended to create).

Fortunately there was charitable support able to cover the legal costs, which made the decision somewhat easier but nothing will ever compensate me for the astronomical amount of my time the litigation has taken up and the stress its subjected me to.

The SPEECH act is a big improvement over the prior situation, but unfortunately the ability to abuse the UK for SLAPP isn't limited to libel lawsuits. I think we need a generalization of the SPEECH act that bars the enforcement (and turns obtaining a judgement into a domestic tort) of foreign judgements in jurisdictions that don't have comprehensive anti-SLAPP protections.

But even with that there remain fundamental challenges. As a victim of malicious litigation I'd like it if the courts better regarded bringing false litigation as a tort and had more facilities to require the claimant to post security for not just cost but for substantial damages in case their claim is found to be false. But policy like that would dramatically reduce access to justice especially for parties with limited means. You're not going to sue big-bad who genuinely harmed you if losing means paying huge damages, especially if you'd have to post security for it.

There is probably no complete solution to using the courts abusively.

We're fortunate to live in mature civilizations that are stable and safe enough to give us an illusion that the universe is somehow fundamentally fair. But it isn't: nature is red in tooth and claw though we try to hide it. Sometimes a bad person can harm you and yours gravely and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it except try to pick up the pieces and move on. This is obviously true when you consider attack with a gun or a knife (nothing can undo a death or serious injury), but anything can be a weapon if you're creative enough-- including a court.

But that doesn't mean we can't try to do better.

They wouldn't say it if it wasn't false.

There was supposedly a grueling system in place where the engineers that made it this far were only the ones with the strongest reasons to be retained over the long run.

My guess is that for 1, 2 or 3 moves per turn it's possible to make a bot that looks ahead 2 or 3 rounds using brute force and then use AB pruning to pick the best move.

With 7 moves per turn the search space is too big and it looks difficult.

I tried a few games with neutral pieces, and it' move difficult to beat the bot.
Fulfilment of such a commitment is impressive. But the commitment itself is of very little value. Marriage comes with commitment vows, many of them end in divorce and a large number of those divorces are because one or both partners broke the commitments.

So far Hare 1.0 doesn't exist, so the clock hasn't even started. Neither the hypothetical Hare program, nor the hypothetical Hare compiler exist. It's true that it hasn't been done before by any language but it also just hasn't been done at all.
I was told the same thing 20-or-so years ago: if you feel like you can have a "normal" life, you don't need to wear one... Now I regret not trying them earlier.
As others said here: your nerves stop receiving stimulus... which over time might trigger tinnitus. And even without tinnitus, unused nerves become atrophied... so using hear aids too late might not help as much doing so now.

It's a social thing... if it were about your eyes, you'd be wearing glasses for sure. Glasses are nowadays "fashionable". Hearing aids definitely aren't.

Now, I do have a big doubt about aids: Couldn't they make your hearing loss even worse?! (since they amplify sound and inject it right into your ear, the exact same thing that ear doctors say that kill your hearing)
Maybe I am missing the point, but it seems like everyone will leave Twitter when it stops working. At that point, the traffic will be diverted and a few platforms will get most of it. We are just in that transition stage where platforms are trying to stay ahead of the pack so they can be the eventual winner. At the moment, most of them are probably hoping Twitter stays around a little bit longer so they won't shit the bed when the time comes.

Sorry I meant "its working as expected per the spec", which is not what the user expects I agree with you on that (I may differ that it depends on the context for example if the caroussel is the full page on mobile , in which the fact it scrolls to the carousel are unimportant , which is the use case i intend to use them on)

I'm at a point where I just treat the front-line CS person like a fellow engineer and tell them exactly what's wrong, and why I know that.

I've actually had pretty good success with this strategy, though it really depends on the company. Framework laptops and system76 for example were both phenomenal with this approach. The first reply I got from them was either an engineer or someone who talked to one, or someone very experienced in CS who would be a good candidate for engineering.

Worst case if the CS person has no idea what I'm talking about, then we start from scratch but at least they know I'm not a dumbass they can BS :-)

I’d say it’s definitely got its merits. If you have a React web app built for desktop browsers, and you’ve cleanly separated your code so that the data layer of API calls, types, utilities, etc… is separate from the desktop UX layer, you suddenly have an awesome way to save time and money. You write the data layer, and then your desktop and mobile apps can all save a ton of duplicated work and maintenance and stay in sync with each other.

While you asked about GDPR, the banners are actually required for many use cases by the EU ePrivacy Directive[1]. This use case is both more broad, and different than those afford by GDPR. However it's possible both can overlap and you can be sanctioned for both items at once.

Not every website is subject to GDPR - applicability is determined by GDPR Article 3[2]. When a site is subject to GDPR - you need a legal basis to process personal data[3] subject to Article 6[4]. Sites which use the 'consent' legal basis, thus get consent with a banner.

If you do not have a valid legal basis (such as consent) to process data, but are found to be - complaints with the relevant Data Protection Authority may be lodged and investigations may be carried out subject to Article 77[5]. In the event of an adverse decision corrective action, including fines may be levied. There are two fine structures in the GDPR, and those can be found in Article 83.[6]

Now, a site can use geofencing, to determine if you are in the EU (or other relevant location) and selectively show you a banner or not based on your believed location as is determined by a reverse IP Address lookup.

You may be re-prompted between visits depending on if the persistence mechanic you select is maintained. Some browsers delete cookies aggressively[7], and if the preference cookie is removed by the browser you will likely be issued a banner on the next visit to re-establish your preferences.

Developing awareness about AI-generated content is indeed important, much like recognizing other online hazards. The more we understand its presence and capabilities, the better equipped we are to engage with it wisely.

Given how widespread ChatGPT is in use now, I think eventually more people will start to write the way that ChatGPT does, even when they are not using ChatGPT.

The author started programming in 2002 it seems[1]. But probably takes time for things to proliferate. I’m sure you could also see the appeal for a kid trying to test their abilities to have fewer guardrails.

But yea I also don’t know why you’re responding so strongly. He basically admitted he didn’t have a strong opinion for either side, and was mostly musing on a vibe that seems to have moved on.

He’s mostly developing in rust these days, so I’m sure he knows the value in good typing.

Lastly, anecdotally, I’d agree with his observation about trusting programmers less. There is definitely a safety-ism culture. Probably from massive professionalization of the web dev space. Again, anecdote.

I think there a number of issues there.

Electric trucks are very efficient and cheaper to operate. They can do a majority of all trucking routes just fine. Companies will primary invest in those routes for electrification. More CO2 reduction. Very long-haul style operations will stay on gas for much longer. Electric truck operation will also be much cheaper then hydrogen operation.

The country most invested in Hydrogen is Japan, and in Japan, electric trucks are clearly superior.

In Europe, a large potential market for Hydrogen trucks, the way the regulations are in terms of rest, that covers electric trucks weaknesses.

Another issue with your theory is that the truck stop that trucks would use are not really the same in form and function as what normal traveling people use for the most part.

They will not be in locations where its viable for lots of commuters to go to. Specially because all short-hall distribution will clearly go electric, not hydrogen.

And its yet to be shown that anybody is actually willing to make the massive investments in hydrogen trucking station, and that there will be hydrogen distribution available. Local generation is very unlikely for a truck stop.

So it sound cool in theory but in practice it just doesn't really line up. Hydrogen trucks maybe make sense in a few long-haul niche application.

And even if, we somehow had hydrogen fuel stations. In practice they are simply worse cars then electric cars. They are far, far more complex to build, and thus cost more to build. They have far far more failure points. For the majority of people who can charge at home, or at work, its just a far worse experience. For long distance travel, supercharging is already really good and its getting better rapidly. Most people make longer breaks then necessary for charging already.

The few people who claim they do like 10h without stopping are the extreme exception of the extreme exception.

> I think for all countries that have large seasonal fluctuations in wind/PV electricity generation, hydrogen will play an important role in both seasonal storage of domestic electricity generation as well as for importing energy (in the form of ammonia) from other regions.

I think seasonal storage makes little sense economically. If your hydrogen production relies on intermittent power availability its going to have really bad uptime and is gone be really bad economically.

At the same time batteries are getting better and more economical at storage. With different battery tech for 4h, 8-12h and 2-3d storage.

Importing energy threw high voltage DC lines makes more sense then transporting hydrogen derivatives. Its far cheaper unless you are going across an ocean.

I absolutely do not believe in the vision that hydrogen (derivatives) will be like oil where a few regions have a shit-ton of production and then we ship it all over the world.

Most nations have enough energy option to figure out their own grid and balance out with their immediate neighbour.
