> What is the state of WASM support in Go though? :)

I am sure it is good enough that the team decided to choose Go either way OR it is not important for this project.

> I doubt the ability to cross-compile TSC would have been a major factor.

I never said it was a major factor (I even said "I don't think it would be a deal breaker"), but it is a factor nonetheless. It definitely helps a lot during cross-platform debugging since you don't need to setup a whole toolchain just to test a bug in another platform, instead you can simple build a binary on your development machine and send it to the other machine.

But the only reason I asked this is because I was curious really, no need to be so defensive.
Yeah but how do you get that data written to a structure database so you get to do that?
It's a safe bet that it's either one of the Gemini models or a relative of it.
I've never been in an American datacentre, and power provision looks more complicated than in Europe, but I guess there is 240V power available.

That should mean there are UPSs already available, although possibly they don't come in small sizes.
Well, what's the time horizon? A PE backed outfit, or a CTO looking to move on within a year or so, would be well advised to follow this guidance. Lots of success now, and the problems deferred to later.
Cool! Can we use the sky hue as Terminal background or overal “theme”?
Then what is https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/install/linux?
Yes, in some traditional Fortran environments "codes" has been used where in other environments one would have said "libraries" or "programs", e.g. "these are some codes for solving systems of ordinary differential equations" or "this is a code for solving boundary elements problems".

So in this sense, as a synonym for a library or a program that accomplishes some function, "code" is countable.
Yeah, it's a bit linkbaity as it implies that the runtime is 10x faster; just adding the word 'compiler' or 'type checker' to the title would fix it.

Thankfully there are alternative currencies that can be used for that nowadays.

That is not relevant to the argument. Censoring limits possibilities. While that sometimes has its uses, the overly puritanical approach American companies generally take degrades the value of their products.
And have you measured the trade-off that could come with embracing such a large number of languages and alphabets? It would be interesting to note whether you are sacrificing some response quality, or if such supposed sacrifice is interestingly negligible, or if - even more interestingly - the quality increases with the added proficiency.

But you can at least resell that $10k Mac Studio, theoretically.
That's interesting. Are they often an amalgam of image & text tokens? Because, yeah, image generation is not interesting to em at all.

I had that same experience with Claude Code. I tried to do a 95% "Idle Development RPG" approach to developing a music release organization software. At the beginning, I was really impressed, but with more and more complexity, it becomes increasingly incoherent, forgetting about approaches and patterns used elsewhere and reinventing the wheel, often badly.
AI tools revolutionizing research by spotting errors is a game-changer for academia. With the ability to detect inconsistencies, plagiarism, and even fabricated data, AI is enhancing the credibility of scientific studies. This is especially crucial in a time when the volume of published research is growing exponentially, making manual fact-checking nearly impossible.

However, despite the benefits, AI-driven tools are facing increasing restrictions. Many schools and universities, as well as some governments, have started blocking access to AI services, fearing academic dishonesty or misuse. If you still need access to these tools for legitimate research purposes, proxy services like NodeMaven can help bypass these restrictions, ensuring you stay connected to the latest advancements. I can drop you a link, it helped me a lot while writing my thesis.: https://nodemaven.com/
This is a huge issue that was already raised on their forums and it's very surprising they didn't address it yet.

In developed countries, there’s not much in the way of mass starvation anymore, and normal people have at least some chance of being able to spend money on things not directly required for survival, of being able to retire, etc. They’re generally literate and have some freedom to move between jobs. They’re unlikely to freeze to death if there’s a bad winter, and so on.

None of this was the case for the vast majority of people two centuries ago!

People not being able to find love seems largely beside the point; that’s not an economic issue, it’s a personal one. You could have a society as fabulously rich or grindingly poor as you like for that.
I agree the devs should not do full-on support - that's of course just waste of money. But, that's different from spending maybe two hours per quarter with the customer support agents, just listening in on the calls - it can be quite revealing and sometimes there are issues one is not even aware. Plus hearing it from an actual human, does something to your sense of priority about such issues.
Thank you for the feedback! This is why we are so excited to push more and more on small models for both low end and high end smartphones!
The EU would already prefer that people buy European.

The problem with anti-import schemes is that they inevitably hit exports. Trade has to have something in both directions, eventually.
this went over my head quickly; read through it a few times, than asked GPT for a summary on my level of understanding, which does clear it up for me ,personally , to grasp the overall idea:

Alright, imagine you have a big box of LEGO bricks, and you're trying to build a really cool spaceship. There are two main ways people usually build things like this:

Step-by-step (Autoregressive Models) – Imagine you put one LEGO brick down at a time, making sure each piece fits perfectly before adding the next. It works, but it takes a long time.

Fix and refine (Diffusion Models) – Imagine you start by dumping all the LEGO bricks in a messy pile. Then, you slowly move pieces around, fixing mistakes until you get a spaceship. This is faster than the first method, but it still takes a lot of tiny adjustments.

What's the Problem?
People have been using these two ways for a long time, and they’ve gotten really good at them. But no matter how big or smart your LEGO-building robot gets, these methods don’t get that much better. They’re kind of stuck.

The New Way: Inductive Moment Matching (IMM)
IMM is like a magical LEGO helper that doesn’t just follow the usual slow steps. Instead, it looks at what the final spaceship should look like ahead of time and figures out how to jump closer to the final result in fewer steps.

Instead of moving one LEGO brick at a time or slowly fixing a messy pile, it’s like the helper knows where each piece should go ahead of time and moves big sections all at once. That makes it way faster and still super accurate!

Why is This Cool?
Faster – It builds things much more quickly than the old methods.
More efficient – It doesn’t waste as much time adjusting tiny details.
Works with all kinds of problems – This method can be used for pictures, videos, and maybe even other things like 3D models.
Real-World Example
Imagine drawing a picture of a dog.
Old way: You draw one tiny detail at a time, or you start with a blurry dog and keep fixing it.
New way (IMM): You already kind of know what the dog should look like, so you make big strokes to get there quickly!

So basically, IMM is a super smart way to skip unnecessary steps and get amazing results much faster.
Or perhaps it was removing the curly brackets that improved it more than the damage caused by losing the nsfw content.

Or perhaps the measurement of improvement was biased. If a model doesn't understand the word gay there would certainly be people who would find real world use of the model to be substandard.

Did the assessment of what counts as improvement come from the same community that decided that excluding things with 'gay' was cleaning the data?
I'm happy to see it to be honest; at this point C# is 25 years old, and since then there's been a lot of innovation and development in programming languages and ecosystems (as well as 10x more software developers, at least - I am guessing at this number). Current-day programming languages, including Go and Typescript, will have had a lot of learnings from C#, including in things like generics and the like.

Microsoft, Apple and Amazon all sell from EU countries, not US. My AWS and Azure Bills are EU based, not US based...
Strangely, I'm not even offended by the notion that an AI can replace this work I apparently do :D Though my thought here was just pure optimism in the face of something bad, not an attempt to frame a bad side effect of something good as not a big deal.

When it comes to generative AI, I personally don't see a lot of good applications, but a plethora of bad ones. The only solution I could imagine would be regulation to the degree that using or distributing models with certain capabilities is just illegal. Judging from the war on file sharing a few decades ago, probably very difficult to enforce, even if it is perhaps still worth doing.

But I don't see any governments line up to do it. Given that, this particular (semi) new development that generative AI is effective for evidence tampering, I think we'll manage to deal with it.

I don't agree that it's "trivial". The devil will be in the detail and could drag out in the courts depending on the language definitions. Quite apart from the fact that anything dreamt up at short notice is going to have shortcomings, tariffs are much easier impose when you're transporting physical objects across physical borders.
A friend of mine here in London, UK uses a comma 3 and works as advertised. I went on a ride to test-drive it and it's pretty cool.

Even more absurd is that Mac Studio with 512GB RAM costs around $9.5K
Well, I'm not arguing "good riddance". I just optimistically think we'll manage. I wouldn't want to miss any of the things you listed, actually. I'd also prefer evidence tampering to be impossible or at least very difficult. But that's not a call I can make. All I can decide about things out of my control, is how I think about it. And here I'm carefully optimistic.
The point is that much of the defensive programming you would have to do in C is unnecessary and automatic in Rust.
I’m guessing multiple governments are trying to come up with some sort of a deal that resembles it. It just feels like China is going to be the sole winner in the end, as that’s they’re the only partner that is strong enough against US when it comes to trade.
2000$? You wish!
Compounding the opinions of other commentors, I feel that using Cursor is a bad idea. It's a closed source SaaS, and with these components involved, service quality can do wild swings on a daily basis, not something I'm particularly keen of.
Not sure what you mean by complicated API. The (pylab) API is a very straightforward (mostly) immediate rendering typeish interface, with a lot of convenient shortcuts for operations used a lot in data analysis.

For architecture astronauts there's also the OOP API over which the pylab API is a wrapper.

Of course there are also a lot of all sorts of declarative APIs, which are popular with people copy-pasting code from cookbooks. These become very painful very fast if you do something that's not in the cookbook.

Matplotlib does struggle with performance in some/many cases, but it has little to do with the API.

Can you explain what goes through an LLM and what does not. You offer 100K logs per day for free but if all of these goes through an LLM, this will burn "thousands?" of dollars every month for a free customer that is milking the machine.
That doesn't answer my question: "Why tariff such low margin US goods " that aren't major imports in the EU anyway or major parts of the US economy?

Them being red state products is a weak argument that sees no base of argument or success.
Regardless. Your points are only mildly important to me. You seem to be basing your entire decision/argument on them. I repeat my proposition. Go sit in them.

The end. Sounds like you're not up for a change of mind and I'm not in the business of changing minds, but I will call shit out.
A $10k backup plan? That makes sense. No wonder you used a throwaway.
I've thought about that too, but of course reality is a bit more complicated. For example, the EU has a pretty large (and somewhat struggling) automotive industry that could be pretty negatively impacted by Chinese imports.

I'd wager there are other areas though that could be mutually beneficial though.
You could switch to a Linux distro for that. Most of them are gratis, but accept donations or contributions. For example Debian & LibreOffice.

That said, even well intentioned distros that don't sell your data will have some privacy issues, inherited from upstreams.

Go is a step back in key areas: generics, nullability, functional constructs, concurrency. The praise of the latter in particular is egregious. Surely we can do better than having to wire the transfer of data and forking/joining the logical flows manually in 2025? The concept of virtual threading in Go, despite having nice implementation, did not progress much from what we’ve had 10 or even 20 years ago either. It can be more convenient than async/await with hot-started tasks/futures if you predominantly are dealing with sequential code. But for highly concurrent logic working with goroutines is more ceremonious.
As a EU citizen I really wish we weren't stupid enough to impose counter tariffs.

Just because the Trump administration is punishing (ultimately) its citizens for buying non-US goods doesn't mean I want the EU to punish me as well.
> Hence you believing that only including M/F as gender options is something that would greatly affect the success of an app.

That is neither what I believe nor what I wrote. You are making up that argument in your head and attacking a straw man.

If you open a restaurant which only serves spicy food and I tell you “many people won’t come here because they dislike spicy food” while giving you a list of reasons why your spices aren’t even applied correctly, that is not the same as saying “only having spicy food will greatly affect the success of your restaurant”. Rather, it is asking you to consider if you really need to limit yourself to one kind of food.

That should be obvious from my post (and apparently was for most people). My criticism was respectful and focused precisely on asking why be so adamant about something which isn’t verified, is notoriously lied about, and isn’t even relevant to the stated goal.

Perhaps look inward and consider if your own bubble is instilling in you a knee-jerk reaction to instinctively categorise the words of strangers into one-dimensional categories you must agree or disagree with, completely missing any nuance and distorting your own perception of reality.

> People like the OP from other cultures do not even understand what you are talking about.

Obviously and demonstrably false.

All of this is true but then it's as easy as releasing censored and uncensored versions of the model.

Then it's up to users (or parents, in the case of children) to choose the adequate version for each purpose. Just like there are child-friendly movies and adult-only movies, and no one beyond fringe puritan crusaders would say that the latter should outright not exist.
Not really. You have seen what the US (under multiple administrations) does to countries that try to switch away from the dollar. Even China and Russia have issues trading in their own currencies with each other - to name the top two "enemies" of the US. What options do you think smaller countries have?

Dijkstra is not implying anywhere that COBOL is "complex".

On the other hand, I would not even call COBOL in itself reliable. I used it twice in my career, and it always needed a tremendous amount of handholding from user and developers to run, and very often the main user HAD to be a developer.

The first time was in a major bank, and the second time it was in a major university. My job in both cases was to migrate away from it and have a system that could run independently rather than needing a developer babysit it.
You make a valid point about the benefits of algorithms in content discovery. While they can enhance our experience by introducing relevant material, it's crucial to maintain control over our consumption to avoid potential echo chambers.

Imagine if Commodore had built ARM, or something like it it. A 16 register RISC in the 80s was basically an instant win. They would have been in the CPU lead for a couple of years.

And they had the resources. I mean hell, Acron was a tiny company and they pulled of building an absolutely incredibly machine in the Archimedes.

Its just what you dare to do. If they were as bold as the original Amiga team, with VSLI Technology 2nm CMOS in the late 80s they could have built an incredible machine. I think they held on to long trying to do their own semiconductors.

Acron didn't have the bandwidth to really innovate on the graphics side of things, and because of their problems with OS, they never managed to get enough software on the platform. And they just didn't have the market either.

Commodore on the other hand, actually had a pretty high quality OS with lots of software and users already.

> Nothing of value is lost when these models are made private again

To list a few uses I see for voice-generation/cloning tools:

* Real-time translation of a user's voice, maintaining emotion and intonation

* Professional-quality audio from cheap microphone setups (for video tutorials, indie games, etc.)

* Allowing those with speech impairments to communicate using their natural voice again, or:

* Allowing those uncomfortable with their natural voice to communicate closer to how they wish to be perceived

* Customization of voice assistants, such as to use a native accent/dialect

* Movies, podcasts, audiobooks, news broadcasts, etc. made available in a huge range of languages

* And of course: memes, satire, and parody

If it exists but isn't widely accessible, it's likely in the hands of Musk/Zuck and and various state actors. To me that seems possibly the worst alternative - to have the public generally unaware that it's possible and receiving few of the benefits listed, yet still having it available as a tool for competent disinformation.
