I think that in Europe the trend is in the other direction: https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/ip_26_... - e.g. -15% since 2019.

For example OS running on Amazon fire stick 4K kills your background processes after ~20 minutes.

Your post is also "a half-baked, un-falsifiable conspiracy theory with little supporting evidence" ;)

I find the attitude shown in this post very surprising. On the one hand, the post starts with a story of adopting Linux and other FOSS. The core of FOSS is giving its users the ability to understand and modify software they run. On the other hand, the rest of the post is about using a tool (LLM) that the author has no way to modify and no way to understand. Huge matrices of floats are at best comparable to compiled code. But the reality is even worse - it’s actually easier to decompile and understand proprietary software. Not to mention the fact the most of the time users can’t even run the “open” models since it requires hardware that most can’t afford.

How did we get from prising software freedoms to this?

I know that this may sound surprising, but US is not the only country in the world ;)

In my experience advanced algorithms and data structures are almost never needed. You need simple data structures and algorithms and understanding of the environment in which you are running (for example see https://handmade.network).

No only that, but to ride the fastest Shinkansen you still need to pay additional fee on top of JR Pass.

How is that different from https://yggdrasil-network.github.io ?

Sick days are not “offered” by employers. Sick days are prescribed by the doctors and there is no upper limit. After all, your sickness will not disappear just because it has been N days. That's at last how it is in Poland.

The author addresses this exact concern.

Yes, we boycott anyone who supports Putin’s regime.

40 hours work week wasn’t always the case and yet here we are.

Poorly seeded prng.

It’s a *non* profit so I think it’s perfectly normal that he pays himself that. It’s a good salary which lets him live normal comfortable life.

Mistral is *for* profit.

Lichess is a non profit from France (like it’s author) and those salaries quite normal for France.

Can you explain what is interesting in those salaries?

My first pc had 40MB hrs and 8MB ram :D

So, in your mind, there is no way for an individual owning archive.today to recover from this?

Thank you for proving my point - for some reason you felt you have to explain how introversion is an „objective obstacle”.

They don’t seem to enthusiastic: https://bsky.app/profile/noelfb.bsky.social/post/3maa3m5x4vs...

We are living in a dictatorship of extroverts, who go out of their way (what a suprprise) to tell us that their ways are obviously better.

> No pointless layer of "inner" keys that you never use

I use all the keys on my ergodox-ez, so this keyboard has not enough keys for me to switch to.

Hello sama

Can you recommend one that is clearly better that ergodox in every manner?

It seems they are *not* losing money on inference: https://bsky.app/profile/steveklabnik.com/post/3mdirf7tj5s2e

You do know that NordSec maintains its own rust fork of BoringTun: https://github.com/NordSecurity/NepTUN ? :)

I think I’m lucky, because for me it’s the other way. In 2009 I started my first real programming job writing c++ in vim. For the last 5 years I’ve been writing rust in helix and things have never been better.

Oh yeah, because in the absence of regulation, the insulin producer would sell it at negligible margins, sure!

As for the socks - my city has like ~5 locations where old textiles can be recycled, the closest one in slightly less than 1km from where I live. I see no problem with going there twice a year :)

How boringly US centric :(

Aaron is employed by Shopify. Also I *think* he was part of the shopify team that took over some responsibilities and/or on-call, see here for the sudden commits after a very long break: https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/commits/master/?author=...
