And Amazon went up 600000% from IPO. If SpaceX goes up by that amount it's worth like 60 times total world market cap.

At some point I thought I would be clever and just backup the file while no transaction is active (or manual WAL checkpointing and no WAL checkpointing active). Ran into 2.2. https://www.sqlite.org/howtocorrupt.html -- the

I think the last sentence has a word missing or something, because it contradicts the previous argument a bit.

Since it is a first-past the post system it would have been best if the other parties coordinated to only let the best party compete. Having Count Binface as the only other candidate is IMO a second-best option.

Same as Russia, yeah. But Reliance Jio seems to have announced something. Don't know if it'll actually happen.

And for that reason the EU, India, China and Russia will build their own Starlink alternatives. To offset costs they'll then provide it for civilian use, competing with Starlink in the above areas.

The main blocker for this was that Trump extended this to the military domain. I.e., tax US hyperscalers and Ukraine does not get US weapons/information anymore. Becoming independent from the US in the military domain will take some w

The whole semi manufacturing(/electronics) supply chain moved to Asia in the 1980s. E.g. Siemens tried to compete but lost back then in the manufacturing part.

Maybe it was your company with the 500 million Claude bill.

So having foreign currency in stable coins is allowed in South Africa?

by luke5441 4mo ago
The profit created from issuing currency is called seigniorage. It is madness letting private companies capture this.

I hope you are clearly marking this as "nice to have".

Yeah, but the software can also be replicated as binaries or as free SaaS.

Wouldn't one be able to tell from basic research if a project is legit or not. E.g. looking how the developer handles support? If no HM does take OSS work into account, one other reason for publishing my code goes away. Might as well p

On the Linux side sendfile is implemented via splice. So it is a more generic API that covers the sendfile case.

The difference if this is okay is how reliable the tool is. If it is a calculator or compiler it is okay. The example in the article also sounds okay (machine learning image classification), though I am not sure. LLM output is unreliable, s

It's a fundamental problem with the technology. Either the training pushes it into the "exam answering mode" where it tries to guess at what you want to hear given the prompt. Or the training pushes it into the "Google i

IRC doesn't have offline messages and standardized user accounts. Just looked it up and there is IRCv3 to fix this, but idk what the state of that is.

Insulting someone is a crime in Germany. We can debate and then change this of course. I wouldn't call this a fundamental issue. It is just what we as a society decided on. (Maybe I'm too "Ze rules are ze rules" here) Id

It's not like the raids in the US because there are less guns around. So risk of someone dying because of a house search are pretty low (supported by police death numbers). This would be more about privacy violations and unnecessary ch

This was later deemed inappropriate by courts. Shit happens -- as long as the corrective mechanisms work it is just exceptions.

Yes, Google just removes them as a first step because this is the least amount of work for them. Theoretically there is an Google appeals process. After that it needs to go to court. My guess is that often reviews are generalizing (easy mis

Taxing/preventing extraction of crude oil upstream would always have been the better solution.

Most of the downsides would be on the goods side. Swiss companies would loose market access and the chance of "better" trade agreements is even worse then the UK, especially currently.

Even then we should be able to see things that previously were not possible because they took too much effort. For example NPCs in games that have complexity that previously was not possible. Good games often push the boundaries a bit, so s

They need the cash to bail out xAI and X. Even SpaceX is not profitable because of Starship.

As far as I understood he already offered the reparations. Including real estate projects & investment fund, obviously. Didn't make the problem go away.

I think the biggest problem is that the main way to use it is as a HTTP response handler, whereas other languages are more general purpose. So when a developer wants to develop themselves outside of a HTTP response handler, they need to swi

I think OP only watched the movie. The book is a bit better at showing the main character actually being competent at times. In the movie they (for obvious reasons, but they could have done perhaps once) skip him going down science rabbit h

Is the scope is actually increasing, that would be the question. Are we re-allocating the labor from the work that got easier (let's assume SaaS) and reallocating it to something that needs doing, e.g. cancer research. To me looks like
