sevenzero··on Countries are competing to see which can carry out mass surveillance the best
How much of this is actually to "catch" terrorists? Its mostly for surveillance, intimidation, suppression. Usually it's the state that defines who a terrorist is, and usually terrorists are ALL people opposing the current regime.
sevenzero··on Wikipedia Workers to Seek Union Recognition
Did I ever claim that? Its 1% of my montly gross salary which is about 40€/month which is just too much given I have 2.500€/month to survive with.
sevenzero··on Wikipedia Workers to Seek Union Recognition
Only employee. Joining an union is too expensive for me though given the reward seems pretty small. My industry does not even have a proper union (in Germany) so I'd have to join a generic one (verdi) which doesn't offer enough perks for me personally.
sevenzero··on Wikipedia Workers to Seek Union Recognition
I work in a 2 man company, for sure a Union will have many advantages for me x)
sevenzero··on Dostoyevsky isn't difficult
Fair :D
sevenzero··on Dostoyevsky isn't difficult
I read it in the hopes of finding a written character I could relate to, but the dude in Crime and Punishment is just such a massive loser... I lack empathy too, but I would never murder anyone out of pity.
sevenzero··on Founding a company in Germany: €9600, 152 days and I still can't send an invoice
Germans a rule based and were really precise which came in handy like 50 years ago. The modern German is not flexible enough for the modern job market. German companies are also not flexible enough to compete. Germany goes downhill for a reason.

Depends. Given OP built yet another AI tool, yea, I want to hold them liable in case something goes wrong (not that I'd buy these tools in the first place).

So basically you go for the legal stuff only really big companies use (instead of changing once its necessary) because you dont believe in your own product and dont want to be held liable, got it.

It is one of the most complicated forms. A GmbH alone is good enough in 99.99% of cases, and its usually done really quick.

Also, if you believe in your product there usually isn't a reason to go for a GmbH this early. You can send invoices a lot earlier with just a eK or GbR. Its not an issue to adhere with your private money if your product isn't causing damages.

sevenzero··on AI's Affordability Crisis
>The models get cheaper super fast.

Weird, why didn't my subscriptions decrease in price then? Oh wait..

sevenzero··on United Wizards of the Coast recognized by NLRB
These collabs actively made me stop playing...
sevenzero··on Anthropic updates their terms to verify age or identity
I wont buy expensive hardware to self host a model thats outdated within 2 months. Also, yeah, uptime is important if you dont self host.
sevenzero··on Anthropic updates their terms to verify age or identity
I agree with the skill drain argument but also think its a little too dramatic. Most people still can do the shit claude does for them, it just takes them 10x as long.
sevenzero··on Anthropic updates their terms to verify age or identity
>This is a serious competitive advantage

Given they have laughable uptime and I have yet to find a useful project mostly written by claude... I doubt it.

sevenzero··on Show HN: Got sick of ads, so I made my own logic puzzle site
This is why I've built my own Sudoku. Offline, no timer, no fail count, just pick up and play... Will come in handy on flights later this year x)
sevenzero··on Show HN: Got sick of ads, so I made my own logic puzzle site
Neat! I've recently built a Sudoku for my friends in Flutter as we were tired of ads showing up prior to games in most versions you can find on the Playstore. I gotta check out the the other games on this website too.
sevenzero··on Beyond All Reason (Free Total Annihilation Inspired RTS)
My statement is related to every competitive game ever. In my experience competitive games are unplayable due to their, well, competitiveness. Videogames are about fun, people dont play for fun, simple as that for me.
sevenzero··on Pledging another $400k to the Zig software foundation
I never claimed I was against tyranny. Tyranny thats emitted as rightful punishment from the masses is fine in my opinion. Single people having power emitting tyranny is a whole different topic. Its about outweighed consensus for me.
sevenzero··on Pledging another $400k to the Zig software foundation
It's causing unhindered exploitation of resources and corruption. We are going to burn the very last tree on earth for chump change.

>Everyone dies in communism.

Everyone dies in capitalism as well though. Everyone dies generally at some point in life.

Reality is, currently most of us are wage slaves and I'd love to work a little less and still be able to afford life. An alternative to capitalism would be socialism and killing corrupt people off.

sevenzero··on Pledging another $400k to the Zig software foundation
Capitalism also marked the end of humanity and is the single greatest force driving human extinction. But yall money driven brains cant comprehend that :)
sevenzero··on Pledging another $400k to the Zig software foundation
If we cant grow past money as a species we are pretty much doomed. I'd rather have allegiance or community based incentives over monetary gain, given that most people on earth can't really afford life anymore and rack up debt so rich people can get richer.
sevenzero··on Pledging another $400k to the Zig software foundation
In a working society, nobody should be able to throw away life changing money. Being rich is poisonous to society. Most of us suffer due to people hoarding money and humanity needs to overcome the concept of money generally.
sevenzero··on Data centers become the face of AI backlash
And unnecessary waste of resources to build data centers for the whole purpose of extracting peoples data and pushing ads into their faces. Humanity needs to find are more healthy connection to technology without exhausting all of what we have left, just so Laura can post a shitty picture of her Starbucks coffee to Instagram.
sevenzero··on Beyond All Reason (Free Total Annihilation Inspired RTS)
Welcome to any competitive game ever... Your team isn't winning within within the first 3 minutes of the game? Better forfeit and go next.

Health data in the hands of some AI company, what could go wrong
sevenzero··on TIL: You can make HTTP requests without curl using Bash /dev/TCP
Ah I see so it was basically a minimal image that bundles just python? I can see why it wouldn't bundle curl! Thought it was a custom Image for some reason, hence my original comment
sevenzero··on TIL: You can make HTTP requests without curl using Bash /dev/TCP
It seems pretty cool, but I am wondering if there's any drawback on just using images that support curl? I can't think of any and to me it's kinda a must have, even on production images
sevenzero··on Hetzner Price Adjustment
Inflation, covering their increase in expenses by shoving it to their customers. Business 101.
