The problem is that the business model is that when you outsource compliance (in this case that might be catching cheaters), the important thing is to be able to say that everyone did their best, and you don't necessarily need to do

Because you don't want the other side (political party) to do the same thing. The US congress has relatively recent rules designed to actually prevent this from happening, and rather keep everything in reconciliation bills. Which obvio

It's good that there are checks, but the core point remains that nimbleness is required for effectiveness. I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm observing that the courts are slow, and that the same logic (slow is good) can i

True, but at the same time, "Justice delayed is justice denied"[1]. An excessively slow justice system means that you need substantially more resources (money, and time living under the uncertainty of the outcome) to deal with it,

It's part of the original selling points of python, so it's not surprising that we've never stopped doing it.

I'm not sure I follow. Traditional computing does allow us to make this distinction, and allows us to control the scenarios when we don't want this distinction, and when we have software that doesn't implement such rules appr

I think the research by anthropic released recently showed that language is handled independently of the "concepts" they convey, so first you get the concepts, then you get the translation to language.

I'm sure this will be written up somewhere as an example of Google doing a good job at customer relations, despite the disaster it is for said customers.

The fact that they shut down Google domains (and cloud domains now uses squarespace, who bought Google domains) shows that you can't necessarily trust they won't shut down critical GCP services either.

It matters to the companies whose business model is to make money because they have moat.

To frame it differently, if you want people and businesses to do whatever they want, you need to make sure that the businesses they depend don't become platforms without meaningful competition. But of course the dream of every company

That's true until you become big enough that common carrier regulations apply to you. Besides, how does the first amendment enshrine that?

> You write that you can only think of games, some productivity software and legacy enterprise software as the reason for why your OS would matter. That sounds like you're a Linux user? Or a windows user. Like myself as well.

It doesn't seem like this challenges anything but the market for gaming devices (not general purpose PCs). Is that correct? And if so, is the title ("terrified") a little overblown?
