My summary of claims: Opensource AI is too dangerous and can't be left as it is. It's scary that everyone can just create AI and we should make laws regarding this glaring issue. Proprietary AI is more accountable, transparent and

>more companies would be supporting Why would any company support free software to begin with? Sounds like shareholders got duped. One wise man once said "They're a publicly traded company with a fiduciary to operate in the sha

Nothing prevents shareholders to pursue ethical goals or at least make an ethical decisions once in a while. Somehow you assume their best interest necessarily is in conflict with morals or truth but I don't see it. Decision to impleme

It's actually really good but I don't get the feel of wonder after all those years together anymore :) Huge db and feature scope definitely keep it away from any particular completeness despite size and age of the project. Hope to

After working with TypeORM in a quite few projects I can tell that there're a lot of things that are wrong with it. And TypeORM absolutely doesn't provide "full feature support" for all 8 databases. Even some basic thing

Why arrays are preferable over m2m tables? What so special about pg arrays that makes anything but them inferior in "tagging" case? I genuinely don't get it.

Your strong statement about postgres doesn't sound right to me. You can't use an array values as foreign keys. Array column wouldn't be my first choice even it could do this: you're limited and constricted in usage overa

Quantum computers are capable of computing things which aren't classically-computable. For a clear explanation I recommend "Simulating Physics with Computers" by Richard Feynman. It presents one example of such computation an

We bought a few Ryzens with Vega8 for our devs on linux and it was a mistake. Unfortunately integrated graphics glitched horribly and it required us to find right set of kernel flags and features to disable. After encountering bug with amdg

You can't use some claim as an argument and then deny any discussion of it. Especially when your claim is extraordinary.

Didn't Gibson profited enough from their acquired IP? Surely they have to compete at some point and not just own idea forever doing nothing but moving shareholders property. Most importantly, engineers and idea-makers behind original

Sitting on an idea indefinitely is not a good prospect either. Original developers knew that IP would expire and still produced original design. There're always risks, originality has some protection but so is availability and freedom

Nix uses it's own specific language. Guix uses Schema. Last time I checked Nix its interface was scattered into a bunch of tools. Nix is pretty neat though but not without weaknesses.

Infinite universe can contain infinite set of objects without any of them being your doppleganger. Unless there's only limited set of objects that can exist in universe at all which doesn't seem likely.
