As for wasted resources - there are cases where the servers have to be deployed in specific jurisdictions (compliance) - it's easier to use AWS than manage tons of small sites. Still I don't see any need for native compilation.
The USA in a nutshell:

> The US Constitution grants Congress, not the executive branch, the power to determine how the federal government’s money is spent.

With regards to the constitution specifically the power of the purse seems a little vague. In 1974 the Impoundment Control Act was passed as a response to, and to prevent, presidents from unilaterally impounding.

Hold on there, Tesla has repeatedly shown an amazing ability to cut costs of their products while improving functionality/quality.

Yes Tesla benefits from credits caused by other companies not meeting co2 targets set by the government but that wouldn't have been enough to save them from three near bankruptcies. And yes, they are still quite a ways away from being a leader in overall quality and consistency but yhey are executing extremly well in their R&D compared to other US car companies only to be outdone by the Chinese, certainly not any US company.

As someone solidly on the left, this has really frustrated me to no end with the typical lefist sources I watch. In 2025 Facts really matter but all I see are facts being omitted to push a narrative (ie. Elon wasn't the founder of Tesla, Tesla/SpaceX is just alive because of the government subsidizes, Elon does not know anything about how to make a car/rocket).

They cite his bad behavior or screwups in reforming Twitter but unless you have followed everything that Elon has accomplished/failed at you are lying by omission. This is especially dangerous now because by dismissing him as dumber than he really is, you are setting him up for surprise successes because people let their guard down.

This is what I see on /r/fednews at how shocked they are over how fast he is moving at his slash and burn.

You would have known this had you followed the whole Twitter saga very closely, the early days of Tesla where they ousted the original CEO for deliberately lying to the board, and the three near bankruptcies of the company where Elon pulled out hail mary after hail mary to save the company.
Resist, resist, resist.

If they want to go through with a coup like this, let them do it in the courtrooms.

They're simply relying on a blitzkrieg of (often illegal) firing/purges, assuming that no-one will challenge them, or that any challenge will take so long that they're ineffective.

Yes. This is how you know that all the people screaming about the EU overregulating and how the EU will miss all that AI innovation haven't even bothered to Google or ask their preferred LLM about the legislation. It's mostly just common sense to avoid EU citizens having their rights or lives decided by blackbox algorithms nobody can explain, be it in a Post Office (UK) scandal style, or US healthcare style.
Agreed. I used to scoff at the hate "techbros" received, but at this point the industry has done more than enough damage to deserve that derision. This is by far the biggest escalation, though.

On the top of my head, you would like to cut costs for materials and nuclear research, big data analytics, all kinds of simulations, machine learning tasks that might not be llm-s, but still give you intelligence advantage, economic security in being able to provide multiple services on lower prices. If necessary, one can throw money, people, and other resources at a problem, but those could be spent elsewhere for higher return on investment. Especially, if you have multiple compute intensive tasks on the queue, you might have to prioritize and to deny yourself certain capabilities as a result. So, I'd say that it is not any one single task that needs cutting edge compute, it is the capability to perform multiple tasks at the same time on acceptable prices that is important.

(While I'm at it, there's nothing special about age here. Plenty of 25 year olds are actually doing productive things for humanity. But many 40 year olds are doing it too. The difference is that they are competent and empathetic, not random guys who Elon happens to like.)
I can't disagree, although pricing models in the industry were a bit insane comparing 1:1 today with the 'don't pirate' site that deep discount a lot of premium plug-ins.

That said, there was a non-negligible amount of studio owners who had licenses but chose to use cracked versions of software stripped of DRM or otherwise bypassing the security checks in favour of maintaining stability.

Love the EU, living here is the best.

There are plenty of companies in the EU using and developing AI even with the fact that Americans say we have "heavy regulation", it isn't just in the same ballpark as the US and China, which both have much bigger potential markets and a stronger VC base with of course, more money.

The lack of regulations from the US in AI creates a very harsh atmosphere for the population.

It's so naive to think that Meta/Google(Youtube) doesn't have power to manipulate people's opinion by showing content based on their algorithms. That's all manipulation through the use of AI.

They are thinking for you. Making you depressed, making you buy useless stuff.

Look on research on this subject and you will be surprised how much the likes of Meta and Google are getting away with.

Hope to see more EU fines for American Big Tech firms using AI to abuse people's weaknesses.
> It's like Java and Scala both compiles to JVM bytecode.

Not really, it's more like how both Castlian and Galician people write in Spanish. Spanish is not some magical byte-code that unifies Galician and Castilian. It's Castilian. Galicians just translate their language when they write in Spanish, while Castilians just write the way they speak.

Similarly, Written Standard Chinese is not a bytecode, it’s written representation of Mandarin. Both Cantonese and Mandarin have words¹ 看 hon³/kan⁴ and 睇 tai²/di⁴. In Mandarin, the standard word for “to see” is 看 kan⁴. In Cantonese, it's 睇 tai². When Cantonese people replace 睇 tai² with 看 hon⁴ in writing, they *translate* their speech into Written Mandarin, while Mandarin speakers write the way they speak.

> because the orthography movement failed in the 70s

It's not a matter of orthography. 看 and 睇 are different both in Cantonese and Mandarin, it's not orthographic variant like “colour” and “color”.

For example, in Mandarin, you can't replace 睇視 [睇视] di⁴shi⁴ with 看視 [看视] kan⁴shi⁴, they have different meaning and different reading.

They're just different words¹.

Xi got into Tsinghua not due to intellectual ability, but due to his political connections with the CCP. This isn't the meritocratic or technocratic story one might have assumed to be the case reading the above comment. China is ultimately a poor country on a per-capita basis and essentially a failure when compared to countries with a similar culture and historical circumstance like Taiwan. It's only their massive size that leads people to the faulty conclusion that they have anything worth emulating.
Look at the comments. It's only been two weeks, and people are already tired of members of Congress running to the media after Musk does something illegal. They want these members to force the police to arrest them on behalf of Musk.

Of course I could be wrong. So could you. You think you're right. I respect that. I think I'm right. I hope you can respect that.

There does not exist a proper argument for the existence of God that does not require use of "God is above logic".

I'll believe that many Christians do not see Trump as savior, though. Following true Christian values in these times is a great idea.
Other NATO partners being asked to increase defense spending to 5 percent is entirely reasonable. And that's with or without Trump asking for it.

I live in Europe, I am European: we've outsourced our own defense for far too long. It is absurd that a country presenting an existential threat to us has been met with more supplied resistance from a country across the earth than Europe.

It's long past time for Europe to wake up.
7 languages and a feature nobody to a rounding error uses? No, I don't consider that to be a research, economic, or technical success.

Honestly, I'm not sure if you posted this is support of Horizon or against? The Horizon budget for 2021-2027 is €95.5 billion or ~€15 billion per annum. If a headline "success" is an unfinished implementation of translation in Firefox of a translation engine (Marian) built by the Microsoft Translator team, then it's safe to say Horizon is an unqualified failure.
I can assure you I have witnessed it in dozens of organisations and have been involved.

In terms of timeline I can tell you:

- by 2012 I already heard about that regulation but only knew it was gonna be about data protection. At that time some "Big tech" lobbying groups were already organising events in Brussels raising awareness about how important is data privacy and protection. I have been to some of those events and I even witnessed very heated exchanges between some EU people and and lobbyists about that.

Proof is a lot of people knew way before that time.

- by 2014 many big corporations were already preparing for GDPR, big budgets have already been validated. At that time they already knew it would be at least reasonably disruptive and they had to start early to prepare.

Also remember before 2014 "Windows Azure" (what would become the most successful cloud for most European corporations) was absolutely not ready as a enterprise product.

So those are not Silicon Valley startups on AWS since 2006, for many decision makers in those big corporations the GDPR upcoming problem predate the cloud solution.

It's possible it could do it if prompted to finish the code with those things, but I don't know the secret number of fancy o1 uses I get and I don't want to burn them on something that's not for me.

> Anything that this regulation doesn't allow is by definition "unacceptable",

That's not true. The regulation first defines high-risk products with a narrow scope (see article 5 and annex III). It then requires risk management to be implemented. It does explicitly state what risks are acceptable, it only requires the "adoption of appropriate and targeted risk management measures" that are effective to the point that the "overall residual risk" of the is "judged to be acceptable".

IANAL, the whole story is a bit more complex. But not by much.

Analysing Open-Source Packages Sustainability Using Machine Learning
In today’s fast-paced world, software evolves rapidly, making it essential to evaluate the maintenance of the dependencies we rely on.
Since new software dependencies emerge constantly, maintaining them is crucial, as outdated or poorly supported packages can introduce security risks and technical debt. To address this need, we developed the Package Sustainability Scanner (PSS), a tool that leverages machine learning to assess the sustainability of open-source packages.

Asking questions to neo Nazis is like asking questions to asylum inmates. Their brains are known to be broken so anything they say is presumed nonsense, and they're also very easy to manipulate into saying whatever you want to put into a story.

Aren't Nazi organizations banned in Europe?
Which regulation? Arguably the CA insurance market is broken because of poorly considered price regulation. On the other hand, regulation to help ensure the solvency of insurers seems like a good thing.
The target of the funds is not related to bitcoin.

"The program is anchored on improving the underlying primary balance by around 3½ percent of GDP over 3 years, to put the ratio of public debt to GDP on a firm downward path after peaking at 85 percent of GDP in 2024. High quality measures, worth 1½ percent of GDP in 2025, already included in the approved budget, will reduce the wage bill, spending on goods and services, and transfers to municipalities. To ensure fiscal sustainability and a further reduction in borrowing costs, reform efforts will center on strengthening the efficiency of the civil service, the viability of the pension system, and revenue mobilization. Fiscal consolidation will be conducted in a manner that strengthens support for the most vulnerable and protects priority public investment."

The assessment of their economy seems broadly positive

“The Salvadoran economy has steadily expanded since the pandemic, on the back of robust remittances and a remarkable pick-up in tourism, and amid an improved security situation, with climate shocks having only temporary negative effects. Meanwhile, the current account deficit has continued to narrow, and inflation has fallen further – supported also by lower global commodity prices. The fiscal situation continues to improve very gradually, and recent liability management operations have substantially lowered near-term financing needs, in the context of sharply lower sovereign spreads."

“Building on this progress, and recognizing El Salvador’s pending macroeconomic and structural challenges, the IMF-supported program aims to strengthen fiscal and external stability and help create the conditions for stronger and more inclusive growth."

> Precisely what americans state you should not do: regulate.

Everyone thinks the same until they're screwed over and then they want someone to do something about that. The big misunderstanding is that "regulation" is just the stuff you don't like. In reality it's everywhere the state gets involved. Every rule that the state ever put in place is regulation. Even the little ones. Even the ones that you like.

Computers cannot be held accountable more than a car, or a gun, or an automated assembly line can. That's why you have a human there no matter what, being legally accountable for everything. The human's rank and power defines how much of the risk they are allowed to or must take.

If there is corruption, I hope they can root it out and expose it publicly. I'm also cautiously optimistic that the 3T deficit may be tackled. I've never seen a president come out so strong in his first weeks on these issues. When Trump campaigned on these issues, I assumed it was just more empty campaign promises.

If Elon's allegations that media groups like Vox and others have been eating public funds via USAID are true, I doubt there will be much coverage here at HN. We will see.
