This so much. You can also read up about when Germany sent industrial spies to Great Britain. And the first documented case of industrial spionage was against... China. It plays this way: you're behind, you ignore IP rules. You're

Let's say you likely benefit from the side effects. It's not guilt, but just a lil reminder we are all in this together. Also, we could talk about current colonialism: arms trade, mining, mercenary armies. Sure enough, if you cl

If TeX is “80s good”, Typst might be “90s” good, being generous. Celebrating batch-mode typesetting in 2026 feels like some weird cyberpunk fixation. Programmable like Emacs (but via Scheme), interfaced with major Computer Algebra Systems,

Lets remind the purpose of incorporating in Delaware is legal tax evasion, so that we don't not have pensions, health insurance or anything nice, really. Rename to Greedware.

Its the 10-point plan of Iran which forms the basis of the ceasefire. I don't think it can get much more clear that the US lost this war, along with dignity, decorum and the respect of the world.

How do you think such a ban should work? Do you not see that the next (or previous) logical step would be a "commercial ban" of frontier models, all "distilled" from an enormous amount of copyrighted material?

It's not that important to be able to do that. You have been educated to trade your freedom for that kind of convenience, but it is not necessary. Proof: things mostly work now without all the surveillance state shenanigans. More proof

That is an interesting take. Seen from elsewhere in the world, we cannot afford not taking into account a big chunk of the American electoral body, which is effectively at war with us (by various means). Essentially, a MESA movement, “Make

I am shocked that the Democrats are not making clear to the military that engaging in crimes against humanity may have consequences for them -- not to speak, of course, of politicians higher up in the chain of command.

not only that, one big fact is that the Trump administration attacked twice Iran during negotiations. That sort of backstabbing gives you a sense of what their word is worth.

But LinkedIn is the one social network many people literally cannot escape to put food on the table. I don't care about how much spying is going on in ESPN. I can ditch it at the shadow of a suspicion. Not so with LinkedIn. This is ver

That's all speculation. What we know is that the US agressed Iran without provocation and in the midst of negotiations and started by blowing up a school and not owning up to it. And now they have threatened multiple times with destroy
