It’s not anymore. Section 232 came into effect on August 1 and totally changes things. I linked to some info on 232 in a previous reply to you.

Short term yes. But (this isn’t a defense of tariffs), the concept is that this will spur on domestic production in raw materials. So with this example, if there is a domestic source of copper it wouldn’t be subject to tariffs at all. In th

It’s not so much a secret as a set of tradeoffs. A few years back, I learned that I had made the wrong tradeoffs - I was unbelievably obese and got to spend a week in a cardiac ward because of a whole lot of bad choices. My kid was only 16

That’s unclear. Mr. Mbengue plead no contest to a trespass charge. He was represented by an attorney with some prosecutorial experience so I think we can assume he received qualified legal advice based upon the facts of the matter. Under te

You’re proposing that the United States government force Apple to invest in Intel? Apple chose a different supplier than Intel; at this point it’s hard to consider Intel a competitor to TSMC but let’s pretend they are. You have proposed a “

That’s a form of political change - direct representation democracy and recall legislation are both possibilities. The solution is to make electoral change happen, not to complain that everything is hopeless on the internet.

I’ve seen LLMs rolled out in several organizations now and have noticed a few patterns. The big one is that we have less experienced people reviewing code an LLM generated for them. They don’t have the experience to pick out those solutions

You’re expecting models to constantly retrain themselves based on riddles. That’s not very reasonable nor is it even economically feasible right now. At massive scale, I question whether it’s even technically feasible.

You know friend, if open source actually worked like that I wouldn’t be so allergic to releasing projects. But it doesn’t - a large swath of the economy depends on unpaid labour being treated poorly by people who won’t or can’t contribute.

Your friend isn’t very smart and you’d likely be better off if you stopped quoting them. You’ve just lumped every single NGO in with a very small minority of bad ones - three seconds of research would have spared you from writing that.
