I mean that's probably the most European take I've ever heard the government should be able to read all your messages and companies shouldn't be able to blink more than 3 times a second.

> Why assume the upper level salary here?

Even a junior is going to cost you $200k by the time you're done paying payroll taxes, healthcare, etc.

If you want your own domain you need to do a bunch of that but you can also host stuff on your own free subdomain of their workers.dev

An AI model can't create CSAM unless you're claiming it's managing to hire people to commit crimes in the real world?

Or realistically people don't view it as CSAM just like how drawing a really realistic image isn't. I don't think it's "good" but it's not CSAM.

I mean absolutely read any thread about Fabel and it's fill with people complaining about how it instantly downgrades or refuses if anything has CVE in the name.

Other then that there is the whole alignment issue. Models that are 'nerfed' in just about any manner tend to exhibit reduced performance is seemingly unrelated areas.

That said Grok doesn't appear to be close enough to the frontier for that to matter. Maybe if they catch up it will.

You mean decades; especially if they keep up waffling.

I mean I think most people would agree it's completely irresponsible and borderline absuive to own a dog and stay in nearly any city in the USA during the 4th.

People rightfully blame the owners it's not like this is a surprise for them.....

No one actually believes their BS and I doubt you actually do either.

They use so many bullshit and mental gymnastics to "score" Germany well despite their appalling "free speech" laws. I think it's very fair to say anyone appealing to either of these index's isn't even attempting to argue in good faith.

Europe has given up on advancing anything and their only solutions to problems is regulations.

lol and who's going to enforce it? The only things enforced are when USA/Russia/China care about it.

Yes, but classically insurance wouldn't allow a guaranteed bad bet in. Health care is way worse then the classic 80/20 (20% of the people generate 80% of the costs). Pruning even just a fraction of these ultra high cost humans massively reduces the cost for everyone else which is what insurance companies used to do before the government stepped in.

(I mean a lot of this discussion is fucked because healthcare is literally your life but the point still stands)

A lot of physics, at-least appears, to end up at quantization which actually really bothers me.

That's the purpose of statute of limitations.

I mean of course if not 10,000 people could stand in a room, watch someone murder another, and then all 10,000 come and testify exactly who it was and what the jury would not be allowed to convict?

> Current AI companies stole much data from Internet without permissions, and used the knowledge of many people directly shamelessly.

So? It's not illegal and no one seem to be in any hurry to make it. That is a moral dilemma that everyone just agreed to ignore not anything to do with how functional it is.

> It cannot resolve many practical problems well, even in programming area.

It can solve enough and is getting better every month. I live in SF and I take a self driving Waymo at-least once a week including on the highway. I'm already literally trusting my life to AI at this point.

> Do you want the software-assistant to do the important or enjoyable things instead of you? Do you want your assistant in real life to eat the delicious food instead of you?

I work for a living man so yes I want the damn computer to do 99% of my job. When I program for enjoyment I'll do it however I want in my own free time. At work almost nothing is novel enough to actually matter (nor should it be) so I don't care about implemented something that's been built 100x before me.

There are still bespoke craftsman in this era of machinery and assembly lines.

You choosing to do something in one specific manner is more the exception that proves the rule then any rebuttal.

> I agree that it should require an act of Congress to explicitly delegate this power.

Should ever new "weapon" invented require a new act of Congress? We've considered software subject this act since the 90s.

If everyone making AI is screaming up and down that we are in an AI arms race creating dangerous entities that will determine the fate of the world is the government just supposed to ignore them?

> I think they’d try to get something through Congress to regulate the industry in a rules-based way.

Is that a joke? We're back in a spat with Iran because Obama refused to engage with Congress, as required by our constitution, to enter the USA in any binding deal.

Any AI actions from the next admin is going to be executive yolos.

So it's not prepaid?

Most of those things a tiny rounding error. Interest and social services are the only thing the government actually spends money on.

Almost no other country has it's government pretending to be so many different entities.

For profit capitalism, and smashing of near monopoly pricing power, and questionable morals.

> Why leave: Sick of U.S. politics and the way it directly and indirectly affects us and how difficult it is to escape from it - it’s a major point of conversations with family and friends, it’s on the local radio, local subreddit, local social media pages, etc.

I mean so you'll move to Spain and just be horrible ignorant of any issues facing the local population, living in a financial bubble where you've earned significantly move then the them and can ignore any political issues locally.

Sure it's "freeing" to just move and stop caring about "politics" and use money to smooth over or move again if anything slightly bothers you.

He said Canada man. If you had other reasonable options when leaving you wouldn't pick it so lets not pretend anyone moving there from the USA didn't fail already.

I'm not sure I understand? That case says training was explicitly legal perfectly validating their whole business model.

The money they paid was for pirating books rather then buying them.

No one writing anything that needs performance cares about some standard library ABI issues. Rust already has warts from bad API designs that constrains performance and they are unlikely to ever be fixed even with new editions. Rust will continue to pick up baggage as basically every language has done.

Aliasing has yet to provide any real benefit for Rust and a hell of a lot of issues. Maybe one day it will be a big win but realistically anyplace that aliasing matter c/c++ will just drop __restrict on it.

Until Rust has equal meta-programming support to C++ it's always going to be "slower". That's why people always say this because it's always true there is nothing Rust can do C++ can't but there is quite a few things you can do in C++ but not in Rust.

Realistically the difference doesn't matter much and if you're writing code that must be as fast as possible your writing unsafe Rust that looks a lot more like C/C++ then anything Rust.

You can do that just fine. Huge swaths of people just use the Amazon app store or the Samsung One. F-Droid is also an option if you don't want to make any accounts.

I mean as a passive investor this stuff should terrify you. You're learning that your "passive" is actually quite active. It's why people suggest VTI over VOO/SPY for "true" passive.

If you want to be active then keep your positions but just know and accept the active label.
