In central/northern Europe in january solar goves 10% of the output of summer, and you need 3-4x power to heat compared to cooling down in summer.

A better analogy might be airplane fuel and car fuel. Both are gasoline, but a different kind and not really repleacable. Batteries, without a significant technology improvement, will not work on semi trucks due to weight issues. But they r

Why not? If I'm not mistaken, Europe is proceeding with green hydrogen quite well. With an oversupply of electricity at certain times, and electricity from solar/wind being very cheap, it seems like a good option for grid storage

You can start by reading up about how embeddings work, then check out specific rag techniques that people discovered. Not much else is needed really.

You can check how python does it, and also ask chatgpt - I found it to be very helpful in cases like these.

Meta, nor anyone else doesn’t have a license to do anything they wish according to EU law - we don’t have wildcard copyright assignments - you need to specify the fields in which a person grants the copyright. Exatly for the reason that whe

Govt can void it after the agreement was signed. That is because companies keep working around existing laws, and pushing clients to sign unfavorable deals. We’ve had banks for example that had bad terms (or trading platforms), and then gov

It speaks EU languages well enough without this data already.

In Europe at least, laws override ToS and other agreements. You can sign all kinds if things with your clients/users, but laws can render parts of these agreements void. In Poland we have a whole catalogue of voided agreement paragraph

Let’s say I tweet that I hate cats bc I’m allergic to them. I would be ok with that tweet being findable through search, but if a model is trained on the information and starts spitting out that I’m a cat hater period (without context), the

That’s true. As a Polish person I will often say “IRS” or “polish IRS”, when I mean a more generic “tax office”.

Did they really? Can’t we scrape chinese or russian internet just as well as western internet? Honest question. I know they have firewalls, but these are one sided as far as I understand. No?

That can be an issue, although - I think - the European approach will be to block private and semi-private data (like fb posts), but allow public data (articles etc). In Poland we have a team of people who work on SpeakLeash which is 1TB of

Ahl. In our case, we have mobile app 2fa, but also an sms 2fa, and authentication through bank login - it’s quite neat that the government struck deal with a bunch of banks, and they serve as identity providers too.

Yeah. Another cool thing is that we have government tax forms that are web/mobile, and it takes like 2 min and 8 clicks to fill them - including login. (for private people)

That’s one of the remaining bastions, sadly. The pickup I can understand, but the need for signup is weird. On the upside, they are removing the requirements to change plates when you buy a used car, so there’s that.

The single pixel example is wrong I think, because that’s not how light and eyes work - you can always spot a single point of light, regardless of how small - if it’s bright enough.

Ah, I stand corrected. Not sure where I found that high number.

I like that they put limitations next to features - this should be a standard for transparent communications

If you don’t believe a startup can be the next Stripe, then you definitely shouldn’t take 1% and work as one of the first employees. Also, the risk profile and expectations are vastly different between founders and first employees. E.g. fou

That’s crazy. Why no web interface? In Poland for taxes we have a web interface that is mobile and stationary, and for many other things it’s a choice between an app and web and paper.

Not a requirement, but in Poland a ton of administration things can be done from a dedicated iphone/android app - including using your official ID. It is optional though, and you can alway do the same stuff (ID aside) from the web, or

It’s a matter of RAM most likely - models require crazy amounts of ram, and I bet they had to struggle to fit them on 15’s pro 8GB.

Wow. Any place to read about that?

Unless the company handles national security, the existing cloud tos and infrastructure fulfill all the legal and practical requirements. Even banks and hospitals use cloud now.

As for government - depends on a country. In Poland we have an mCitizen (mObywatel) mobile app that allows to handle more things tear by year, and we have internet sites with unified citizen login for most of the other government interactio
