The first version won't work on my linux distribution (nixos). The second one also won't work, but I know how to make it work (C++ and Python without any additional abstraction layers are easy).

It will most likely not happen? It's absolutely possible to write a program that forks and both forks overwrite 99% of shared memory pages. It almost never happens, which is GP's point, but it's possible and the reason it&#

This is not how it works in most of the world. Usually you don't have to go through security when you transit, only when you arrive at the airport. The only time when I had a second security screening during transit was in the US.

I think the GP was interested in technical details. Specifically, do you first scrape the pdf (using another tool presumably), or do you have gpt4 multimodal access?

Optimistic explanation: businesses that handle millions of dollars probably have way more transactions than regular people, and thus have a higher chance of triggering a false-positive on some random blacklist.

Do you recommend any "Ethereum L2"s? I'm only vaguely familiar with the concept, and didn't hear about a single Ethereum L2 in the wild. Quick google led me to Arbitrum, Optimism, and Boba. Do you honestly think they may

And this is completely ignoring the fact, that the real hard problem is the design. Spitting boilerplate code is not. How pandas could be designed perfectly in one afternoon (and generated with GPT) is beyond my comprehension.

I think NordStream is a great example. It was a big deal. I'm actually surprised that you're the only one that mentioned it. Everyone (I know and discussed with) agrees that Ukrainians obviously didn't bomb their cities, but

I prefer American profits to Russian rockets. Are you seriously trying to equate the two? Not to mention that the markets are not a zero sum game (unlike war). Both sides can get richer in the process.

I agree with you in principle, but it's probably easier to enforce speed limits than sound and emissions (because both are hard to measure while in air, in contrast to speed).
