That hasn't been true on switched networks in probably 20 years or so.

In plural form "Schulden" is exclusively used for debt. The more common term for liability is "Haftung" which also translates to accountability (GmbH for an LLC means Gesellschaft mit beschraenkter Haftung). The singular "Schuld" can also mean guilt, blame or fault. But they are all pretty negative in their connotation.

It's unclear right now. The current stance is that using pi or other coding harnesses eats into extra usage and that is the behavior one sees today. We have added a hint to pi now that warns you when you use an anthropic sub.

Since I (until Anthropic decided to remove access for subs) used Anthropic models extensively with pi I explored the two caching options and the much higher cost of 1h caches is almost never a good tradeoff.

Since the caching really primarily is something they can be judged at scale from across many users I can only assume that Anthropic looked at their infra load and impact and made a very intentional change.

Author here: ethical concerns are legitimate and they don’t require contact. You’re right that the center is not just skewed because of the arguments I made but also because of other factors such as the availability of money and time.

I’m not disputing that. The argument in the article is a much narrower one: use. It’s that without use, one’s view of how it behaves in practice is second-hand from the people that engage.

If all ones criticism is confine within ethical or monetary concerns then this article does not apply.

That’s very possible! But right now I think the bigger risk is that the center is biased towards people with time and money.

Difficulty only adjusts every 2016 blocks. If the system gets out of whack enough it could slow down to a crawl for an extended period of time.

In practice it’s not much of an issue because bitcoin is not use for commerce but it’s a store of value and it some of the trades are not even on chain.

Armin from Earendil: At the end of the day there is nothing I can demonstrate to you now that we will be doing a good job here. But I want to be able to put back at comments like this in a few years and be able to demonstrate that we made the right calls for everybody involved.

Armin from Earendil here. I don't know about everything, but I find it disappointing that Tolkien has to "live" with being associated with the companies that are currently named after his works. I want to build a company that is based on better values.

They implemented it in a way that it only responds with a valid image and a 200 status code, when the referrer is adobe.com. It's probably somewhat sane given the insanity that is the host files hack.

> so that doesn't really break the rules

At the time it did not break the rules. It's breaking the rules now because by the original rules it should have been phased out. What makes it survive is a special arrangement.

Though not all country codes point to a country. See .eu, .ac .su as different examples of stuff that breaks the rules.

That is more political than otherwise. SU and EU both are exceptional reservations in ISO 3166-1 alpha-2.

My main exposure to Codeberg is Zig and it has an issue tracker there and I pull in changes from it.

For how infrequent I interface with Codeberg I have to say that my experience has been pretty terrible when it comes to availability.

So I guess the answer is: the availability is bad enough that even infrequent interactions with it are a problem.

It's way more complicated. For instance according to this vote Denmark is overwhelmingly against it. However Denmark most recently was the country that pushed heavily towards this, in fact, under Denmark's leadership the whole thing was revived last time around.

If you look at local politics and news they are all lobbying massively for it (or some people do). The reason is usually "for sake of the children". Parents in particular are heavily in favor of chat control.

This will come back because too many EU countries want it.

It managed to throw itself into a global file for me that Claude used which caused beads to appear in random projects on my machine. Because of how it was there the agent attempted to re-install beads after I already removed it because the guy hook errored.

Every problem is self-correcting in that some new normal will emerge. Either through acceptance or because something is changed.

It’s very hard to say right now what happens at the other side of this change right now.

All these new growing pains are happening in many companies simultaneously and they are happening at elevated speed. While that change is taking place it can be quite disorienting and if you want to take a forward looking view it can be quite unclear of how you should behave.

Did localstack never get bit enough that a fork would emerge or am I missing an obvious one?

Which, as a non informed person but someone who needs to travel by plane, sounds absolutely insane. Was it always possible to staff that with a single person or is that a result of understaffing?

> It has a vague 'about' modal and that's your lot, which is confusing since they're encouraging people to join.

It's a surprisingly good filter and gets curious people to send mail in :)

I admit that it’s a conflict and I don’t know if I have the right answers. I cannot help but see the good and bad in these things. Rejecting it outright is unlikely to help.

In pi’s case there is a plugin system. It’s much easier to make a self extending agent work with Python or JavaScript than most other languages. JavaScript has the benefit that it has a great typing system on top with TypeScript.

> Can’t read all of this since it’s 424 pages but i want to point out that Australia is beating Europe on grid connected storage. Not on a per capita basis. It’s beating all of Europe combined outright

That makes no sense. Those are projections and for battery only. Europe today has around 100GW energy storage, Australia has around 6GW.

> I was waiting to read about what these "wildly incorrect intuitions" were, but it's never explained. The maps correctly matched my own intuitions.

If you are into land value tax discourse maybe, but from my experience at least there is a big lack of awareness of the impact of economic activities on land values as they are not reflected by anything that people get in contact with. That's especially true because neither rents nor property taxes (the one thing people might have exposure to) fully capture it.

Wichs also means ejaculate. Wix even had an ad where they made fun on “wichser” (Masturbator) on German TV.

Rutube, VK.

> The thing I most want to use this (or some other WASM Linux engine) for is running a coding agent against a virtual operating system directly in my browser.

That exists: https://github.com/container2wasm/container2wasm

Unfortunately I found the performance to be enough of an issue that I did not look much further into it.

The other way around.

Oklab is awesome and it’s such a great example of a person putting in time somewhere, where many just glanced over but still complained over the years. And it was so good that it was adopted everywhere.
