If banks require WEI, then maybe it's time to boycott the banks too. Brave should start redirecting people who go to bank websites to a crypto exchange instead. oh wait..

glTF is not a very optimal runtime format, and IIRC it even started out originally with the statement that it was 'purely for interchanging models between programs' and that engines would/should still use their own format (he

Doesn't matter. A court decides in the end, and the two choices I presented could lead to OPs scenario. If a court decides that, they decide that, period. I'm not 'making an argument' with those points - I'm present

Speculating (I am not a lawyer) I see two options: 1. Model weights are the output of mathematical principles, in the US facts are not copyrightable, so in general math is not copyrightable. 2. Model weights are the derivative work of all c

Beelink devices are great. Super powerful for the price. I wish they sold ARM ones. I've been wondering if it'd be possible to put a full arm linux desktop distribution on one of their 'super console x king' devices, whi

I did not suggest "execution of arbitrary WASM code" is something that we should be scared of - I stated the facts, and you inferred something I did not write. > The proposed WASM shaping implementation would be a replacement f

There's a reason those are lucrative businesses, regulation around them (correctly) prohibits new entrants. Probably not a great idea for a small team to try and enter those markets unless you genuinely have some secret sauce / ni

Will a court force Meta to do business with you? I’d be surprised if that is the case. If you do try to bring them to court, I’d expect they use every capability they have to completely disable your access to all Meta services. Not just ads

You're correct, Zig is self-hosted, with its own non-LLVM backends heavily in development; lots of wildly incorrect statements about both Zig and Go in this thread.
