It's a good idea if it actually works. Are enough commercial users paying up so that these projects get some serious funding? If companies avoid using software governed by such licenses then the overall impact is negative in my opinion

I agree, but what I disagree with is the idea that everyone must be prevented from freely installing software on their own devices to make sure unskilled people cannot be tricked into doing it. I don't really understand why a well desi

I agree in general, but the market response can be very lumpy and sometimes substitution happens more quickly than investment in new capacity. Only a handful of companies can make high end memory, semiconductors and semiconductor equipment.

I mean, you could make a better comment about it, but in my opinion the sarcasm is justified. AI has greatly increased the number of security bugs found on a weekly basis (which is great) and we're getting one of those one-shotted and

I agree. And even if they were able to do it for one more round, it's not a sustainable strategy. What they (Anthropic and OpenAI) need to do is build platforms and integrate verticals.

I would normally agree with that, but in this particular case "everyone" is just over 200 individuals. And he could be opposing it on principle as well. A one-off retroactive wealth tax is a rather questionable form of taxation e

So under your proposal, all checks would happen exclusively on the end-user device. Websites would do absolutely no age checking, nor would they get any kind of signed certificate from end-user devices vouching for the user's age. Am I

I agree, it does seem awfully complicated and there are quite a few pieces missing for this to be a complete solution. I'm a bit surprised about the scalability case against a simpler solution. This is not about Shopify's scale. W

Isn't there a simpler explanation in that "my server" can refer to a role or to a specific machine? The author uses "server" as a role. So "my server is a phone now" translates to "the server role in

I think MCP (or any kind of external API) serves a different purpose than ad-hoc code generation and scripting. In my view, the MCP should be part of the specification. It should expresses intended actions and/or restrictions while the

I understand that this is true for a lot of application code. It's not true for library authors though, and every language needs libraries.

No. This cognitive load is conceptual. You can't avoid it by using slightly different syntax.

It's hard to avoid, because (naming aside) the cognitive load is caused by higher order functions, which are hard avoid without causing massive code duplication. I understand the desire to keep things concrete and avoid high level abst

No you're wrong. It absolutely is a consequence of connecting an LG monitor. Connecting an LG monitor triggers a chain of events that deterministically and deliberately cause these ads to be shown. The hardware alone is not sufficient

I disagree. It matters that LG makes ads appear on their customers' screens as a deterministic consequence of connecting one of their monitors. It's not superstition. Of course the details are important on some level. But that doe
