But they do not delete the scan after training, they keep all the training data for future use and future training.

Well, trying anything in court is definitely what they want to avoid. I mean, what is your suggestion here - should they buy the book, scan it, then sell or give it to someone else? That IS a copyright violation in itself, no need to try an

Well they have to destroy them after scanning, else it is a copyright violation. Maybe not in the US, but in a lot of jurisdictions you are allowed to make copies/scans of Books, CDs etc. but if you sell the media, you have to delete t

Around the 2000s I remember playing a match of Unreal Tournament Classic on a LAN party again a player of a major german UT clan of the time - he was using a trackball to play and slaughtered us so hard. To this day I can't imagine pre

I've been saying this for a while: the ad-based business model is dying. It is only a matter of time until local AI models can "see" your screen and identify any sort of ads and remove/hide them. This also includes messa

1) is not a problem because you can chose a custodial wallet and not deal with anything - just as any bank account is also a custodial wallet. And when you pay anything online with credit card, it sure as hell is also not private or non-cus

Lightning - a fast, instant, bitcoin layer 2 network - is perfectly sufficient for micropayments. Volatility is a no-issue in this case, as you can freely trade the 5 cents in realtime into other assets and minimize holding time of BTC. You

Problem is I'd rather have the 0.05cents go to however runs the website (the bugtracker in this case) than go to the electricity company.

It is time for micropayments integrated in the browser. Pay 5 cents to access each bug report. Not fun, it shouldn't be like this, but better than not having a bugtracker at all.

They should have mentioned that in the first line of the github readme, not burried deep down in the text.

Bank account register, EUDI Wallet, Chat Control, digital Euro… They might not be the majority but they manage to go through with all of this.

I’d say the same about Claude Code. I am on the cheap 20€/month subscription - given how much coding and internet search it replaced for me I would pay 200€/month easily.

Because the EU wants attestation for age verification, digital surveillance and censorship, not free software platforms that wont implement any of those.

But it took you probably years of knowledge and learning to be able to fix the line. If you start learning that from 0 today, the AI will be cheaper in the long run - because while it cost 10$ today, we know from history that everything com

As a lightning node runner myself and someone who sends lightning around on a weekly basis - care to share the arguments to support those wild claims?

mdwiki [0] would probably qualify. Disclaimer, I created+released it in 2013. I always jokingly called it the first true single-page application - as it was a single, offline-capable .html file with all images, icons, styles etc. inlined in

You are right, and "decentralized" would be the proper word. Thats why it is often associated with Bitcoin (and yes, because there are extensions that allow you to "zap" - i.e. attach bitcoin via lightning network to mes

> AOT is entirely independent of single file binaries. splitting hairs, but its is not independent. AoT is a required pre-requisite for single-binary creation. You can't create single-binaries with JIT. And that is the big hurdle, l

by littlecranky67 2mo ago
It is not so dishonest, and you explicity added the small "ootb" to your statement. That is the point, out-of-the-box it might not work and you will have to do some refactorings, but if you start a new project with AoT you will

Exactly. To add to this, is called ahead-of-time compilation, and bundles required parts of the .net runtime into the single-binary. Deployment targets thus don't need to ship any .net environment or libraries.

because contrary to many peoples believe system, prices actually work to modulate demand. The whole idea that you can increase prices without losing customers is nonsense.

I would asume the FRED statistic already is inflation adjusted as they said real income (usally inflation adjusted). That is 25% come ontop of the inflation, while you subtract it. That being said, inflation or CPI is a very poor metric o
