Your family had to leave everything behind, risking a weeks-long journey at sea costing them everything they ever had, going into the unknown - at a time where nobody could travel. The US was not as rich, or built, or anything.

People today get a 50$ plane ticket and move straight to the Bay Area.

You don't see why things need to change?

How does that negate my initial comment?

Like a pyramid scheme?

The tenant admin configures that mapping. They can also configure whether the data can be exposed to users outside of the organization. There’s no magic here.

The EU in a nutshell. It's never about achieving anything through actual work - it's all about the illusion of progress through buying domain names, custom fonts, padding: 200px, marketing, and more paperwork.

I'm not the one making unverifiable, extravagant, pompous and extraordinary claims though :)

So where’s all of this cutting edge amazing and flawless stuff you’ve built in a weekend that everybody else couldn’t because they were too dumb or slow or clueless?

It honestly starts to sound like they just botched the design and placement of these cables - placing them in shallow and exposed passages, with no proper defense against dragged anchors.

Getting a (cheap) dedicated device for banking purposes (perhaps without a sim card, wifi only) is a good way to «work around» this.

Are we green enough yet? Would’ve been nice to take the car instead of this, eh?

The goal is to intimidate criminals, and mitigate crime. What’s wrong with that?

But they still need to decode the proprietary DRM before it can be fed to the hardware decoder... lol

> "there's no way to set cpu affinity at least from userland"

How is that even possible. What's the excuse?

On Windows, setting process affinity has been around since the Windows NT days.

Crimson Editor.

This is the wrong take.

There's a point beyond which LLMs are an overkill, where a simple script or a "classic" program can outdo the LLM across speed, accuracy, scalability, price and more. LLMs aren't supposed to solve "universal computing". They are another tool in the toolbox, and it's all about using the right tool for the problem.

Welcome to open source software, the "year of the linux desktop", etc...

"Shooting the messenger" (to quote you) is what happens when the messenger is an incompetent idiot, who fails miserably at their job and takes down the entire UN with them. Being a corrupt terrorist sympathizer who is funded by Hamas doesn't help said messenger either.

Feel the vibe

It is a good faith argument though. LLMs are trained on this exact kind of data - and a lot of times, chat frontends (Claude, ChatGPT, etc) will simply search the web and summarize the results for you...

There are tens (if not hundreds) of thousands of OAuth libraries out there. Probably millions of relevant codebases on GitHub, Bitbucket, etc. Possibly millions of questions on StackOverflow, Reddit, Quora. Vast amounts of documentation across many products and websites. RFCs. All kinds of forums. Wikipedias…

Why are you so surprised an LLM could regurgitate one back? I wouldn’t celebrate this example as a noteworthy achievement…

> "Look through the parallel implementations, see which is best (even if it's not good enough), then figure out what changes to your prompt would have helped nudge towards the better solution."

How can non-technical people tell what's "best"? You need to know what you're doing at this point, look for the right pitfalls, inspect everything in detail... this right here is the entire counter-argument for LLMs eliminating SWE jobs...

That’s a lot. I don’t know the specifics of Lazarus, but this typically screams static linking with everything and the kitchen sink being thrown into this one binary. Entire cross-platform runtime, GUI assets, metadata, etc. Could be a fat debug build, too.

This is cringey advertising, and shouldn't be on the frontpage.

Google is winning because LLMs without a (good) search backend are mostly useless.

So many LLM workloads require high quality search results (backed by efficient, relevant, complete and up-to-date indexes), and that’s Google’s muscle.

There's "taxation", and then there is "taxation". VAT is an incredibly aggressive and overreaching version of "taxation", and it has severe implications on free trade with Europe. I'm not sure why you won't acknowledge this.

And by the way - plenty of economists view taxation as impediment to free trade.

We started this conversation with you seemingly not understanding how VAT messes with free trade, and it sounds to me like you're in a different place now. Feel free to keep arguing over semantics all day long, I'll leave it at that.

I don't really care what you invest the money into, the point is that the VAT is a mechanism which messes with the concept of a free global market and it leads to unfair competition and an unleveled playing field. If you combine it with other factors (such as the fact that the US is the sole guarantor of Europe's defense) - the US is in the right for challenging the European economy.

Are you saying the VAT doesn't benefit Europe and European economies (both directly and indirectly)?

US sales tax is *significantly* lower than VAT, varies by state (allowing for all kinds of loopholes), and applies to fewer categories of products and services sold. No point arguing this, VAT is a protectionist and anti-competitive tax and the US has a right to challenge it.

Why are you arguing this point? It’s de-facto cheaper and easier for European companies to compete in the American markets, than the other way around.
