You seem to downplay the strength of Italy's status in the EU and its non-sanctioned access to international trading partners as part of its economic strength. Italy, just like Russia, has its own economic advantages.

To clarify, the upholding of the security assurance is still left up to the discretion of nations in the agreement, based on how important non-proliferation of nuclear weapons is to them. It seems that recently, nuclear proliferation is no

With official linux support on Windows, I really love developing on Windows, it's the best of both worlds. Mac on the other hand feels like a second hand citizen to both linux and windows depending on what you're doing.

I can't help but think that XBox 360 emulation is the only long term path that exists for the 360, which is concerning because only Xenia to my knowledge exists and it's still experimental.

That reminds me of what happened with Kitchenaid, where now only the pro line and better has metal gears, which is why folks seek out the old models at garage sales.

And part of this is because it's very difficult for consumers to measure this, especially as even the best brands experience enshitification. Sears' Craftsman tools famously had a lifetime warranty, but capitalism eventually did i

When peoplespeak of planned obsolescence, they're discussing how companies pay the bare minimum to make a part that functions within the warranty period. They aren't doing it to fail the part prematurely, they'd doing it to p

Robotics is unfortunately not there yet, unless we plan to send everything there fully assembled with zero maintenance ever. Unless you mean purely for basic exploration.

To add, money is fungible. $100 for one department just means that $100 is freed up for a different department.

Which is how it should be. There's a limited amount of resources in developing a chip, best to take advantage of the least costly route given those constraints.

Since it was opensourced I don't really care anymore. Not like Oracle or Google are great companies either.

Shoot back in 2001 Rhapsody was already doing this, I used to use it to stream music all the time for a monthly fee. Ironically in 2016 they rebranded as Napster. Spotify ended up winning in the end because they used a freemium approach ins

The point isn't whether you commit a crime, it's whether you get caught.

Whose to say they don't get a cut on the back end? Sounds like a nice exit strategy to me if you want plausible deniability.

You generally reserve this tactic for people who act as blockers for everything, or for people who aren't critical to the project/action but still need to be notified.

Is it possible that this was an inside job?

400 families own the same wealth as 160 million Americans, so they better be paying far more in taxes. In fact, given how much taxes eat into basic living expenses for the bottom 50%, the rich should be paying even more in taxes.

For me the meta sunglasses have two killer features. Taking candid pictures of my family is extremely easy, I no longer miss catching photos of small things my toddlers do and I'm able to do it hands-free. Additionally, they work remar

I used to love pihole, but it seems like it's more trouble than it's worth now. Advertisers have wised up and will use the same subdomain for both content and ads. I've also had issues with normal website functionality being

And the beauty is that long term capital gains is capped at 20%. That's a lower overall rate than what my family pays in taxes. The rich got it made.

Everyone knew it was probably faked, but for the longest time there was no smoking gun that refuted the run's legitimacy without any plausible deniability. You have to remember that the speed runner gave plausible answers to many of th

Our models are not inferior because we're not constrained by copyrights, which is the entire concern we're discussing.

It's simple statistics. With a large enough sample size, you're going to always have a few very loud outliers.

I can't imagine nickel fraud for snacks and beverages is particularly lucrative.

The distinction you make is irrelevant since both are under Congress' responsibility. The president has no constitutional authority to determine which currency is minted and how much of it is minted.

My biggest concern is, what happens when countries like China, who aren't restricted by this, far outpace western countries in this technology? Do we just shrug and accept our far inferior models? LLMs are a productivity multiplier (si

So all that friction is just schemes to get you to pay up more.

Not exactly. For example, you can have a singleton object that maintains a persistent connection to a db to persist logs to. No one's going to inject the "ElasticsearchLogger" object in their method/class by accident, an

Yeah, I like how the OP basically recreates scoped variables by applying all these strict rules, instead of just using scoped variables. For example, with DI, instead of a global variable, we just use a singleton/scoped dependency. Why

FYI their open source ai definition released with a lot of controversy, unsurprisingly because it had heavy contribution from corporations with their own interests. It's best to ignore it for now until the wider community has decided o
