> but it's still a singleton instance, so where do you run it? Most hardware doesn't give you enough uptime for what you need here, because what you actually needed was a re-architecture for distribution / failover / whatever, and while you could ask your LLM to do that you aren't going to run your bank on the result.

If only we had a way to solve these issues with tools capable of running Rust programs in that way. I guess every company that needs distribution / failover has a mainframe sitting in their office nowadays huh?

> The philosophy behind [Rust] and the language itself is really good. I just don’t want to use it.

That's all that needed to be said. He only makes himself and the rest of the Zig "community" look as petty as some of the worst Rust people with the surrounding remarks. Why does anyone need to care what a few randoms think of a language? Either it gets used or it doesn't.

not for these reasons alone but let's not pretend like they didn't factor them in at all

Here's an easy one:

Their CEO is a megalomaniac who brags about "killing people"[0] and can't string together coherent sentences on live television[1]. Did I mention it's backed by Peter Thiel who is openly and actively trying to tear down the world's oldest constitutional democracy in favor of a technocratic oligarchy[2]?

Or just keep it in Spain? It's not exactly a developing nation. Can they simply not build a server and find people willing to take care of it?

Ghana can host their own IT infra. Why not Spain?

I sincerely hope people taking the side of the LLMs get everything they ever asked for.

When $llm_company begins asking you to open your wallet to fix every vulnerability, bug, or other breaking issue, instead of the guy in Nebraska doing it for free because someone mentored him, will the economics change? Probably not.

Provide specific examples of AI providing something novel. Eliding something from a vast dataset that would take humans longer to analyze is helpful, but not novel.

> But seeing this pre-emptive enslaving of a new artificial lifeform is heartbreaking. Its not just Japan. I really don't blame Japan. The US and others are doing it too.

I don't know how else to put this but it sounds like you're suffering from AI Psychosis. A bunch of floating point numbers in a file does not have a conscience, cannot feel emotion, and has no morals.

The entire point of AI (or even the mythical non-existent AGI everyone keeps insisting will be around "soon") was to make life for humanity easier, and as someone who uses these tools almost daily, my life isn't improved at all, neither that of my colleagues, family, or friends n=~30.

We were promised unlimited abundance, freedom from labour, and all of the fruits that come with it. I 100% support this court decision and hold that any and all progress sans contact with an extra-terrestrial lifeform should be attributed to the humans it belongs to

The issue isn't lack of documentation, it's the policy itself. If it's not supported by google it shouldn't be published under their name. Simple.

In the README

> This is not an officially supported Google product.

Why was this project published under an account named "Google Workspace"? Google seems to want to have their cake and eat it too, same with the cli creator.

If you want to publish a project under open source and you are the sole creator/owner -> do it in your own time, under your OWN individual github account. Nothing good has ever come from ceeding control of these things to giant corporations who only care how much it will increase their profit next quarter.

Anthropic was very much willing & involved in U.S. military contracts before the falling out with the DoD. OpenAI is actively involved.

Did anthropic bar the use of any of their models behind an ID process back in April?

> After some more back-and-forth, Kilpatrick asked bluntly whether the flag being set to FALSE on consumer chips was a silicon-level limitation or a firmware policy decision — since one is permanent and the other is potentially reversible. Limonciello’s reply effectively closed the chapter. “My apologies, but I don’t have any more information to share on this topic,” he wrote.

Too many people downplaying this as a simple business decision from AMDs side but the response here is what really makes this a story.

Where there's smoke, there's fire.

Something I don't see mentioned in this article is the nation-wide adoption of a universal transit-payment system: IC Card (Suica is only one of several companies, but often used colloquially to mean train card). This makes it so easy to board any bus/ferry/train without worrying about setting up 30 different accounts each with its own card system.

I've lived in Japan for 4 years now and it was a bit of a culture shock travelling to Germany where I had to have a different pass/app for the various buses and trains. The U.S.'s public transit buildout is slow but happening, and I worry it's falling into the same trap. I'd like to see a federal bill requiring all private/public transit to use the same universal payment scheme accepted in Japan in order to get federal funding for their projects.

The goal of this puzzle appears to be to get more people to talk about the issue and push for change. In these things, you can have either popularity or nuance but not both. The average American can't even read, let alone understand the nuance or complexity in how gerrymandering "actually" works.

The map looks off. No way the American Southwest has 3 meters per cm cubed of fungal density in such an arid region. Plenty of desert.

> I also think your characterization about hobby/production fall short. My fastAPI and rails codebases anre definitely not a hobby.

That's not what I said?

What I said the was the line between hobby/production is use of the tools themselves. Doesn't matter if you use them via a terminal, VSCode extension, or an external app.

Line between editor/IDE is the former requires downloading extensions but the latter bundles them in the final application.

You're right, the meaning has become pedantic so I'd put forward a new term because the line between editor and IDE is blurred... but there's still a vast difference between editing on vscode vs IDEA or Goland.

ILE? Integrated Language Environment. The former caters to a specific language ecosystem. Text editors are polyglots by contrast.

IDE ships it's own compiler, debugger, usually some sort of container/container orchestrator and database tool. I.e. the things that separate hobby projects from production ones. VSCode has these things but they're extensions, not build into the editor

> Needless to say, this is invasive and raises privacy questions: If you log into your personal bank account, does the tool track you? What about when you’re writing a personal email, or responding to a personal call? Meta held no consultation and there are no workarounds; just a top-down decision being pushed through.

I'm not going to defend Meta's recent practices but any expectation of privacy when using an employer's device is forfeit. I thought this was basic common sense?

Everyone has a strong opinion on how to implement auth yet seemingly no one has hard data or peer-reviewed research to back up said opinions.

> A completely partisan, hate-filled/inducing rant, posted by an account which effectively makes this type of thing 50% of the type of content they submit. Yet the algorithm has it at the very top of HN.

You realize you're making a political statement in and of itself? There's no such thing as enlightened centrism.

I've been telling people since 2018 that any and all attempts to "hide" from data collection is a pointless endeavor unless you're willing to live solo out in the woods. The future of privacy rests in poisoning the well of information about yourself, which is why I regularly and randomly make google searches for things I have no interest in and places I will never go or haven't been, prompts for topics pulled out of a hat, and shopping sites for things I don't want or need.

> I will say that I hate the term “AI psychosis” because the term is extremely misleading, and many psychologists and psychiatrists have complained that it is inaccurate and may cause more problems itself. But the general sense that CEOs are going overboard with AI is definitely happening.

It's getting exhausting how x field of experts constantly bemoan the coining of one term or another, rather than provide a decent alternative. It's not very goal-oriented thinking. Just empty complaining.

Tried it out for a few mins and it does what advertised. I think Electron is perfectly fine for what this app does: Managing ECS. It's not an all-in-one platform the same way VSCode is, so bloating isn't really an issue. On my M2 MacBook pro 64GB, it's sitting at 30.5 Mb of memory usage. JetBrains' toolbox app (Written using Java) is sitting at 505.1Mb and this app arguably does more than that one, if not an equal amount. The wallpaper process is taking up 29.9Mb of memory, so this app amounts to just another wallpaper worth of memory which is nothing.

However, for any app that aims to be an "all-in-one" desktop GUI replacement for the aws console, which may need extensions, a native framework would be the way to go over electron.

One piece of feedback I have is to just have a selection menu for models from providers rather than asking the user to input text, as well as an option for effort level if available.

The GOP rigs elections in their favor and it's well known, but they don't have the power to throw out an additional 87 million votes if they don't go in their favor.

The logical conclusion then if despite everyone voting D then getting their votes tossed out is either violent revolution or liberation with the aid of another nuclear-armed state.

where is your data sourced from?

I'm not here to defend the NSA as it's treaded on liberties and rights countless times so far.

But understand this:

YES they have a vested interest in harvesting all of your private data for surveillance.

That doesn't mean they DON'T have a vested interest in safeguarding their own data and that of other gov't agencies.

They need the co-operation of the academic community and top cryptography experts to accomplish this. They cannot safeguard their own data or other agencies' data without publishing reports on what works and what doesn't.

So either they risk leaking the encryption algorithms that work for them by hiding them and only sharing the backdoored ones with the public, which is a violation of the [Kerchoff Principle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerckhoffs%27s_principle) and a massive risk.

Or they simply cooperate with experts and publish algorithms that work for both them and everyone else.

Which sounds simpler?
