It is true that it amounts to the same number of words, so why would it look more like a wall of text when the text is narrower? Perhaps it has to do with the number of lines?

What forces you to publish this work as a PR, or as many PRs? You could have simply kept that for yourself, since you admitted in the PR discussion that you found it useful. Many people seem to think you haven't properly tested it, so

I think you need to define what you mean by the term "virality" here, because I don't see how this could be associated with any feature of the GPL, and it's definitely the reason of disagreements in this thread.

It's possible that at some point in the past they used TLS, but I believe that MTProto(0) is used now for any communication through Telegram. (0): https://core.telegram.org/mtproto

I don't understand the last line in your comment: if Telegram doesn't have good encryption, why would anyone require to have a backdoor installed? Are you implying that the French government isn't able to decrypt a bad encryp

But metadata is data too, right? I guess the next question is, would it be possible for parts of the FS metadata to remain untouched for a time long enough for the SSD data corruption process to occur.

Or they got inspired by how this is done in OCaml, which was the host language for the earliest versions of Rust. Actually, this is a behaviour found in many FP languages. Regarding OCaml, there was even a experimental version of the REPL

A few points: - the explicit interfaces for modules used in hardware design _are_ types. - hardware design requires extensive testing and verification, and formal verification (using types) is a valuable step in hardware design. I think the

I think the definitive point is that it should be documented. Security through obscurity all by itself isn't security.

So, for a product to be trademarked, it requires some form of success, IIRC. If you make and try to sell a product in good faith, but nobody wants to buy it, you have no case for a trademark. That's weird. I could see the reason if the

While I think there's very little chance for the author to overturn this decision, and thus agree with you that he should just move on, you should have a look at the amount of features this small project offers. I don't think this

Look for positron.ai talks about their tech, they discuss their approach to scaling LLM workloads with their dedicated hardware. It may not be what is done by OpenAI or other vendors, but you'll get an idea of the underlying problems.

I stand corrected, the exception case is definitely an oddity, both as being an outlier and as a strange behaviour wrt Python's semantics. Or is it a strange behaviour? In the case of an if like in your example, no provision is made ab

That might be a lack of understanding from my part. I had the impression from your comment that you were implying that there was (and is) hope in internet development (ie. many people hold a positive opinion about it), but there cannot be a
