The problem with this logic is that Codeberg itself is built on top of other FOSS.

What will happen when Git accepts its first vibe-coded patch.

Linus is famously ok with AI assisted coding, so eventually Linux can or will also cross the threshold.

Will Codeberg stay principled and stop using Git and Linux?

The Linux repo clearly would be considered vibe-coded by Codeberg policy and it being banned is the policy working as intended.

It is probably a good example of why do many people think that the policy is ultimately counter productive even to Codeberg itself.

They banned all LLM assisted projects.

It’s not a fallacy if it actually happened.

No because lawyer is a protected profession with regulated rates.

Unless your friend happens to actually be a legally licensed lawyer.

Regulated legal insurance market coupled with „looser pays all the costs“ system.

The insurance doesn’t mind fighting for you because they will get paid by the company making the frivolous suit. You don’t pay much, 10$/month.

Although in this particular case, you wouldn’t even need that, since either you took the documents and that is criminal fraud prosecuted by the state or you didn’t take the documents and then the company would be in hella trouble if they perjured themselves to the public prosecutor claiming you did.

Not the OP, but:

The point was not that their opinion is suspect, the point was that they are former because people who care about the customer get fired and/or that everyone who cared is former, so nobody who is left cares.

Because people who need help from the police and have to hide their tracks might not be completely technically literate. Or indeed fully literate at all.

This page serves the 0.01% most vulnerable.

Yeah but they don’t want your money. They want the botnet users money.

You got a genuinely free, to you, app.

Well, yeah. Which is where energy efficiency of FPGA and ASIC comes into play.

Correct. Swiss German keyboard.

ICANN is a nonprofit in California. It doesn’t really have any power on its own. It only exists because everyone from browser developers to server operators to consumers agrees we need a central place to organize stuff.

If the US justice system issued a warrant telling Verisign to do X, what do you think the courts would do to ICANN if they tried to actively stop X from happening? At best, they would be politely asked to stop, at worst, they would get felony charges for obstruction.

It’s absolutely true. It is a documented fact. It was discovered and entered into public record during the DOJ antitrust investigation into Google Chrome.

They call the signal „popularity“ and it is a successor of the Google Toolbar signal.

Politically inconvenient domains are already routinely seized by the US and there are international agreements in place that allow cross-border takedowns.

Why do you think t.me got taken down? Montenegro doesn’t care about Telegram.

If EU++ is ok, Infomaniak.

True, but only because they are choosing to actively burn VC money on training.

But it’s not like the models we have now would stop to exist if training stopped. Other than the occasional retraining to get the latest data in, if they stopped wanton experimentation with models, that admittedly is pushing the models forward, the training costs could plummet and inference would be the thing to optimize and scale.

I mean, the government of Montenegro is a reasonable European democracy on its, admittedly slow, way to join the EU and is a NATO member.

It’s not really any different than this website we are now on being at the whim of the US government.

FYI - Gandi was great, but they got bought by private equity a few years back and the price skyrocketed and service went downhill super fast after the buyout.

What’s with the shade on Montenegro? .me is a perfectly normal domain.

And the government doesn’t even operate the registrar, it’s operated by doMEn d.o.o. which is a Montenegro version of an LLC.

Models are memory bound.

Startups burning through VC money to build massive warehouses full of hardware those models need to run on currently seem to be quite power grid connector bottlenecked. A more efficient chip would help.

No? You can program a GPU, you can’t program ASIC. TPUs are closer to ASIC than GPUs.

Yes, but:

1) They are investing Loony Toons levels of money and using Loony Toons financing a lot of the time for DC buildout. Those are actual physical buildings that once built out, exist and don’t need to be built again.

2) They are pointedly ignoring FPGA and ASIC. With the current model quality, would it really be so bad to burn Claude irrevocably on a chip and have a non-modifiable, cheap to mass produce, order of magnitude faster Claude-in-a-chip? This is what happened to Bitcoin ultimately, there are huge performance gains we know exist lying on the table just because they don’t exist for training. And even for training, TPUs make the first steps in that direction.

ASAT already exists and multiple countries have already shot down (their own, defunct) satellites.

You don’t need to meet all of them. You need to meet any of them.

Which makes it almost trivial for parents for example because you just need to send your kids to a normal school instead of an expat only private school.

1) Because taxes and money are not everything. You do not buy welfare, it’s not an insurance. It’s a social safety net provided by the society irrespective of how much money you contributed to it. So the criteria for getting welfare must be something else, for example are you a permanent member of the society in question.

2) The actual non-exhaustive list of ways to prove you are integrated in Switzerland, Kt. ZH is: do your children go to the public school? Are you a member of a local sports, arts or similar club? Do you have regular social contact with Swiss citizens? Can you speak the local language? Do you volunteer in the local fire department? Did you volunteer for the Civil Defense Service?

To be fair, for permanent residence the bar on any of these questions is quite low. But that is how you sensibly check that.

3) The GP thinks their 200k salary is relevant.

Y’all need cheaper banks O_o

It’s a very expensive bank.

Compared to a normal Swiss bank: CHF wire transfer and EUR SEPA wire transfers are usually free of charge. Dukascopy charges 2.30 for each CHF or EUR transfer and 19 USD for each USD wire, on top of 0.50% currency conversion.

And, their FAQ clearly states they don’t accept US citizens.

First of all, _basic_ rights should be afforded to _all_ humans. That's not what the discussion here is. The discussion here are non-basic rights, like the right to enter a geographic area without restriction or the right to state welfare.

You saying "job/role" is where the argument falls apart, because job and role are not the same. Yes, I absolutely agree that people who fulfill roles in society should be afforded protection of that society.

There are roles in society that have nothing to do with your job: neighbor, volunteer, person you ask for direction on the street, parent, parent of your child's friend... Those are also the roles that typically have some form of emotional, spiritual and cultural work associated with them.

Refusing to fill those roles and filling only the role of "high-income immigrant" isn't necessarily a net positive to the society and should not on that fact alone be provided permanent residence.

I will say however, I think parents of children that attend public school in a country should have almost automatic PR. Not fully automatic, but 99.99% of such cases are net positive, much more than high-income immigrants.

Because if the will of the people is for person A to serve in office X, then the will of the people should be absolute. I'd even allow election of minors and other currently non-eligible persons.

The only requirement should be that you are politically member of the given area, which typically means you actually physically live in the city/state/country.

Note, in Switzerland, you can already be voted into office _against your will_. And then you MUST serve. And this has actually happened in recent past, in remote villages to be fair.

No chance.

Also, really expensive.

Not at all.

Citizenship allows you the final participation: political. The right to be chosen and the right to choose.

Everything else applies to anyone who lives permanently in a given place. A permanent resident.

FWIW: I personally politically support PRs being given the political right to be voted into office as well.
