That’s unfair. There’s plenty of drama in projects with all sorts of funding situations. Look at eg Rust. Lots of drama and it’s anyone’s guess if the code you wrote a year ago would work today.

Almost zero drama and almost no feature creep or breaking changes. The team seems to have a focus, and does not change it easily. That is important for a programming language, and it doesn’t happen organically.

Selling it as a “chat” is a mistake imo. Chatbots require very large models with a lot of stored knowledge about the world. Small models are useful for narrow tasks, but they are not, and will never be, useful for general domain chat

I’d like to understand why you find this unlikely. This is a very popular site, read by a large number of wealthy people. Its readership likely exceeds that of many mainstream news outlets. It is also fairly easy to maliciously influence -

Moreover, you can be fired the day before the “sale” and get bupkis. In the US many startup contracts say that if you’re fired, company can even take away your vested shares. They’ll tell you it’s only if you get fired for cause, but cause

That pain is coming in earnest next year. Ukraine is still transiting Russian gas to the EU, but the deal is expiring at the end of this year. Germany will deindustrialize much more in the next few years until they turn on the only intact N

AMD has its issues too, from time to time. I even replaced a processor through them once. As chip complexity increases, both companies are going to have these issues more often. The solution is to let other people be guinea pigs for a year.

United States did actually support Hitler up to a point. USSR boycotted the Olympics in 1936 - United States participated. IBM sold stuff to Hitler, as did Ford and General Motors. Henry Ford was a big fan of Hitler, and his views on the Je

USSR did not “kill millions of Slavs” in Eastern Europe. You’re severely confused. Hitler, however, did. Fully extrapolating this line of propaganda into the future, 30-40 years from now people will believe that an amateur Austrian painter

You don’t need a “team” to do what was done there by the looks of it. You need like 4 dudes, with pry bars and half a can of fuel. I’m actually surprised this does not happen more often. Not only is this infra not protected, it seems entire

Why do you assume that it's a "foreign" actor? I think it is utterly idiotic to hold an event of such scale in a country which has seen several consecutive years of mass protests. I mean sure, you can cordon off parts of Pari

Poland also cooperated with Nazis before 1941. So did much of the rest of Europe and Britain. And no, it wouldn't have slowed Germans down, just like it did not slow them down in 1939. In general, European countries did not put up much

Jesus freaking Christ, read the German plans for Slavs - it's all public information. They were going to starve and work them all until they are dead, and then populate the lands with Germans. Poles are Slavs. To draw moral equivalence

They wouldn’t have to “conquer” it. They’d just march straight through and end up in Ukrainian SSR and Belarus. My point is, the USSR was hardly unique in signing “intersting” pacts in late 30s, and its desire to surround itself with at lea

Murdoch is a symptom of that illness, not its root cause. The root cause is the Deep State (aka the “ruling class” if you’re not a fan of the term) for whom it is more convenient to have people bicker about bullshit issues that do not impac

And I’m not arguing with that, Stalin also did massive purges of his own officers, leaving the red army severely deficient right before the war, but as horrible as this is, this is not total genocide, which is what awaited Poland had the US

Actually no, the war would take the exact same direction because Hitler did not consider Slavs to be human. It would have just got to the USSR a couple of years before it was even remotely ready for the war, and, ironically, would probably

Communists also happen to be the sole reason why Polish people still exist, because a certain Austrian painter was going to eradicate them all after he was done with the Jews.
