Maybe they were fast enough by 1939 standards, but it seems that in 1960s communication between Moscow and Washington was considered to be "not fast enough". Quoting Wikipedia article on Moscow–Washington hotline[1]:

> During the [1962 Cuban Missile Crisis], official diplomatic messages typically took six hours to deliver; unofficial channels, such as via television network correspondents, had to be used too as they were quicker. The experience of the crisis convinced both sides of the need for better communications.

> During the crisis, the United States took nearly twelve hours to receive and decode Nikita Khrushchev's 3,000-word-initial settlement message – a dangerously long time. By the time Washington had drafted a reply, a tougher message from Moscow had been received...

Just out of curiosity: can't these companies be sued by the IP holding company when they try to sell outside of China, and be forbidden to sell their products in US and Europe?

So if over the years I got, say, five disks of varying quality - I shouldn't add them to a pool as five individual vdevs :)

And thanks for the comment. Indeed, I was thinking about countries like Russia, where US three-letter agencies don't have extradition power, as far as I know (thinking about Snowden). Countries like mentioned in that thread, indeed, have more complicated relationships with US.

I'm also aware of an opposite opinion: if I'm to be spied by someone, it's better to be a three letter agency overseas, since it's much harder for them to harm me, than a three letter agency in my home country, which can just knock at my door.

Write ("leave notes") mostly for myself, but wonder if someone else might find it useful / interesting.

* SQLite is 35% Faster Than The Filesystem [1]

* Writing to files safely is hard [2], and SQLite goes to great details to ensure consistency in case of application, OS, or computer crash [3]

So while I agree that it would be nice if everyone respected a "living standard", my hopes for middleboxes to comply are not high.

A bit of feedback, if I may:

* maybe it worth showing some feedback when AI is thinking/composing the answer vs. when it's already finished. Currently, on my machine words appear rather slowly, so it's not always clear if Assistant is done answering or not. Currently, I use CPU fan noise to check when it's done thinking :)

* also, scrolling the white text field to the bottom might be useful to see that text appeared.

* and it looks like it has some issues with non-latin symbols - try submitting some emoji or cyrillic text to it - black console at the bottom shows "Invalid UTF-8 leading byte 0x0000008d encountered when deserializing a UTF-8 string in wasm memory to a JS string!" message and user input (and AI output) appears garbled in the white field at the top.

Other than that, great stuff!

  User: implement a python function that takes two numbers and return the sum
  Assistant: def sum(number1, number2):
      return number1 + number2

  Output: number1 + number2

  User: how do you add two numbers in JavaScript?
  Assistant: Add two numbers with a simple method.

Regarding "are they stupid enough to actually believe it" - I don't know, but what do people usually write in cover letters? When I wrote it - it was basically CV, just in text form instead of bullet points. But then _lying_ in cover letter is basically the same as lying on CV, no? Or, if companies tend to believe CVs, I would expect them to at least _pretend_ to believe cover letters, too.

Also, when on command-line, I recently discovered `git add -i` for interactive mode (asks you about individual hunks and lets you "split" them), and `git add -e` (lets you edit the patch however you want).

Well, you have at least prefers-color-scheme CSS media feature, but maybe you can also use System Colors: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/color_value...

But I'm a tab user, and would like to hear about other approaches.
