Jesus man! That video is brutal! 😮 Meme accomplished.

Sorry, mate. Strongly dislike AI. I'm only interested in chat prompts for programming and auto-complete. But, hi there.

I don't expect humanity to ever reach a level of technological development in which real-world problems can be magically solved with silver bullets. New problems and challenges will keep rising from old ones.

I suggest a large supply of supplements, a strict intensive schedule, morning exercise and a stress free environment.

It's incredible to me how this country, formed for the historical and humanitarian reasons it was (setting aside politics here), has lost all and any positive sentiment. It is today, by far, the most hated country in the world. It takes a special kind of doing. Wow! It's particularly personal to me. Because I started my younger years a firm supporter of Israel and its right to defend itself from aggression. I certainly was a supporter of the early campaign against Hamas. All that is gone now.

You can frame it however you want. But the simple matter of fact is that human ingenuity, creativity and labor will always be more valuable. Go cry in a corner.

I usually unfollow people that ignore me repeatedly and consistently. Intentional pleonasm. If the purpose of a social network for those people is to simply farm view while ignoring people taking their valuable time to formulate responses that are more than low-effort mental slop, then fuck them.

In a world were AI kills IP, there wouldn't be any more direct benefits (financial and other intrinsic rewards, personal or corporative) to creative work, including, and most importantly, research. There is no world where people generally don't care about gaining recognition for their work and be rewarded in some material or spiritual manner.

Well, you cannot argue that the OSS/FOSS was an historical accident in one sentence, and in the next claim that 45 years later AI invalidated those arguments. It's either a defensible political argument of its time which was then deprecated by AI, or an invalid argument to begin with that AI finally put to rest.

I can't stand straws. Never have, even as a kid.

It's an interesting story, coming from a country in which a large part of its farmers live in abject poverty. Here's another old Chinese saying. I'm sure you'll recognize it: "The noble person looks within themselves; the petty person looks to others."

Really? I never saw him being mentioned as a terrible or mean person. That's news to me and not fitting at all. I disagree on quite a few things he has to say. But he was never crass or crude to me or anyone else I witnessed. He is completely unlike so many other public figures in the tech space. That said, I never allow personal interactions to help me decide who someone is. I prefer to look at how they interact with others.

One fascinating thing about English: native speakers constantly wonder how to pronounce certain words. In many languages spelling rules dictate pronunciation. And I think Old English worked that way too. What happened? Is there an established reason English lost or removed that? youtube.com/watch?v=ObkJNsta…

There's a certain kind of constitutional advocates that immediately remind me of christian politicians, who are known primarily for their religious fervor. The type of god fearing people who insert bible verses into their speech and defend family values, while calling out for televised public executions, changing their departments of defense to war, and initiating mass deportations. And almost always end at the wrong side of the Law, for corruption scandals, sexual assault or domestic violence.

Someone who describes themselves as a constitutional absolutist is the least qualified person to judge anyone knowledge of the Constitution... ... and a bit of a constitutional fascist.

Yes. And yet, after this long they still can't add a simple 'Braces and Operators' group to the Zig language color scheme settings.

Don't trust news on twitter. That's a proposal by the Permanent Representatives Committee (Coreper). It hasn't been approved yet. And is far detached from the actual legislative decision as it can be. Coreper is composed of EU countries non-elected representatives for the EU. Ambassadors mostly, and deputies for more specific topics. It has no decision-making power, much less legislative. It servers as a support to the Council of the European Union, which is made up of EU ministers and who has joint legislative power along with the EU Parliament (which is made up of directed elected deputies by the peoples of Europe). So that Coreper proposal is presented to the Council. If the Council approves (fully or partially) the Council will incorporate that into a legislative proposal and submit it to the EU Parliament. The Parliament may then discuss it or present their own legislative proposal. Negotiations will continue until a consensus is reached, or one of the two bodies (Council or Parliament) vetoes the other's proposal. In which case no new legislation is written.

I'll give you this though, it does beg the question: Why are EU governments agreeing to this? That's what we should be asking. Let's not distract ourselves from who is really trying to push this. Not the EU, but elected by the people european governments.

Portugal mentioned.
