You don't need 4GB and it wastes memory to make pointers twice as big? Even Linux supports running 64-bit code in a 32-bit address space ("x32 ABI") for this reason.

JS in the web context is what C or assembly is in the native context: something you have to use, because it's the foundation the platform is built on, and every language needs a way to interact with it, and good languages support it in

There's no way to draw on a canvas in WASM either. You just decided to write JS wrapper functions for that. But you didn't write wrapper functions for DOM manipulation.

It's why people say "Donald Trump was held civilly liable for sexual assault in the E Jean Carroll case" instead of "Donald Trump raped E Jean Carroll"

The danger there is that the government will demand access to a journalists sources. "Leak reports Area 51 has aliens!" "Oh yeah? Prove who told you that or we'll arrest you for lying" Or selectively. "Vaccines

Making something similar is copying for the purpose of copyright law. If I trace over a Disney character it's still copyright Disney.

Fun fact: in India, it is a crime to connect the IP network to the telephone network in any way whatsoever that allows calls originating in IP to terminate at telephones. This is because IP network users don't have to provide ID. (It d

Isn't this the exact same thing? If you don't have a valid ID to vote, now you don't have a valid ID to use a cellphone either. And if you wanted to go and get one, too bad because you probably need a cellphone to do that.

So basically people from Africa won't be allowed to use their phones in the USA by order of the government? (If they can even get into the country without ending up in an ICE camp, of course)

The loophole is to use a homeless person's ID for $20. Wait. In the US don't they not even have an ID standard? The homeless person probably doesn't have any valid ID and neither do members of several other disenfranchised gr

An SMS activation price is about $0.13 btw, there are several sites that do this commercially with hundreds of thousands of numbers. Not going to name any since that'd be advertising for them.

Can you tell me more about how to order and receive a fake ID on the dark net in less than 30 seconds? It does sound rather implausible.

functional parts not being copyrightable means that you can't claim a program is a copyright violation based on the fact it does the exact same thing based on compatibility reasons (you can copy what the program does). E.g. git stores

why wouldn't it? If you run git through a compiler it's still copyright the git devs, same if you run it through an LLM.

Asking an LLM "here's a thing, rewrite it in Rust" is pretty clearly creating either a derivative work or a different form of the same work, just like asking a transpiler would.
