Moreover, I'd be nervous about the fact that filenames on Windows tend to be case insensitive.

Nobody owns the .co part of .co.uk. If you buy foo.co.uk, that is registered with Nominet, who are the registry for .uk.

There will other people with the Fraser surname in the exact same position.

This is really cool! There have been many DEC Alpha emulators over the years, but none have been capable of running Windows NT.

I need to know whether the speedup holds for truly gigantic projects such as Doom in Typescript types.

> I think the non-profit has around 25% ownership of something that is around a trillion dollars of on-paper money.

But the purpose of a non profit is not to maximise profit in a for profit investment.

How well is non profit doing at furthering its goals? It formerly had the purpose of “safely” ensuring artificial intelligence benefits all of humanity. It looks like it gave up on that so its staff could be incredibly rich.

Oh! This is cool. When they announced it 5 months ago it looked interesting, but it wasn't open source. Discussion at the time: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45537035

With this being open sourced, and being the integration and creation of several fast components, this becomes an obvious recommendation for JS/TS. Similar to Cargo for Rust and uv for Python, yes?

The page summarises the license as “Basically… the MIT do-whatever-you-want license”. The MIT license is of course one of the most popular permissive open source licenses.

This is an incredibly misleading comparison. The subsequent clause is a complete contradiction, not a subtle clarification.

My point is you can make things cheaper for locals. But local means local: it doesn't mean national.

Charging EU citizens more than French citizens would be illegal discrimination under EU law. (It might be legal to charge local Parisians less.)

Often in these conversations we forget that editing is different from editorializing. Editing can make meaning clearer! (In this example, reactions are mixed as to whether it was successful).

Editorializing, on the other hand, is about adding clickbait or bias.

It's a farce, though. We're told these LLMs can already perform our jobs, so why should they need something curated? A human developer often gets given a dump of information (or nothing at all), and has to figure out what works and what is important.

In particular I think it's nice for uv and ruff to remain open source, not open core. And as you say, companies always need paid private registries, for their internal software. A true win-win.

Laughs in 230V (sorry).

I don't know if you're awaee, but the number of arrests for terrorism has skyrocketed in recent months, in the UK.

Sounds terrifying, until you realise people were arrested as terrorists for holding placards. (That fact is of course terrifying, but in a chilling way).

That sounds incredibly boring.

Is it effective? If so I'm sure we'll see models to generate those context.md files.

I remember this episode too. The answer is four thousand times bigger than the Eddington Limit. Blimey!

The episode is called “The NEW Ultimate Energy Limit of the Universe”. https://youtube.com/watch?v=0rzgYzbzq5Q

Surprisingly little comment about the anticompetitive nature of selling this service for a dollar. Not even a dollar per employee, a dollar in total.

That is WAY below cost. It's anticompetitive, and a bait and switch will happen down the line.

Water is expensive to move (except by pipes), and expensive to purify from salt water. This is why regional droughts are a bad thing.

Fresh clean water in your area is a wonderful thing.

That's an interesting perspective.

Tangentially, I've long wondered about sci fi like Star Trek. Namely, even with FTL, how large can your interplanetary alliance be? How far away can the parliament be? Over what distances can you defend against common enemies? Trade? Culturally exchange ideas?

Zune .NET O3... shudders

After the initial legal letter they could have licensed / agreed to the usage, or taken over the running of the website. There are several ways to protect their trademark without being killjoys.

It depends on what you mean by human. Homo sapians emerged 200k or 300k years ago. But the genus goes back further. Homo habilis goes back 2.4M years.

To be fair, WSL/2 didn't exist for most of those circles.

Thanks. My rule of thumb is simply to skip straight to the Articles, when interpreting EU law.

Recitals maybe seem weird because we don't have them in UK legislation. Maybe the nearest thing is Explanatory Notes? If you want to know what a law says, read the law itself. But if the law makes no sense (either as a lay person, or because the law is badly drafted even for legal folks) then the Explanatory Notes may offer some insight.

I don't agree. For a start, this blogpost puts way too much weight on the recitals.

EU law is all in the Articles. AFAICT the recitals can be used in determining purpose, when courts have to interpret ambiguity. But so can other facts!

Indeed. And to elaborate: the random collisions which flattened the solar system (or galaxy) over billions of years all conserved angular momentum.

Minute Physics have a nice video on this: https://youtube.com/watch?v=tmNXKqeUtJM

Hardwiring is good, but if retrofitting, you don't need to do it. Some of the 10 year battery powered units can wirelessly link (and thankfully not over something inconsistent like WiFi or Bluetooth).

Ah but UTC isn't the worst case: it's UTC+14.

I agree with the author: the timezone of the organisation is what I'd expect.

I can't be 100% certain, but I think the good news is: no. There seem to be the exact same number of safetensor files for both, and AFAICT the file sizes are identical.
