That’s the purpose of the neural networks
pookeh··on Extensible WASM Applications with Go
do you need a disclaimer to your comments that you work on a product (XTP Bindgen) that is basically competing with the WASI component model? I don't care for either but thought the transparency was necessary.

Can we please just move to using OSS licenses with a clause namely targeting cloud providers? e.g this MIT license is applicable to everyone except for the following companies: Amazon, Microsoft, Google.

pookeh··on FDIC – SVB FAQ
Your didn’t answer my question. If I had an account in SVB, and I put a 100k in it, why would SVB take my 100k and invest it? That was the whole issue with FTX. Investing it whatever asset class, my money shouldn’t have been invested unless I give permission to SVB period.
pookeh··on FDIC – SVB FAQ
Can someone explain me this…they used people’s money to invest in bad securities? How is this different from criminal behaviour of FTX?
