Do you know how much time I (or any other dev) would spend getting a C#, or C++, or JS/TS, or Java or any language project running that has anything to do with ML up and running on tech and tooling we are kinda unfamiliar with? Yes,

Good luck getting any of that to happen. All that does is raise the barrier for proof and consequence, because they've got accreditation and "licensing bodies" with their own opaque rules and processes. Accreditation makes it

That just means the penalties are not strict enough. Even worse, we're afraid to impose real penalties (jail) so we rather just "fine" people (because it's more humane?), which will affect those most likely to drive with

How is this different from actual criminals that we lock up behind bars? Sometimes till the remainder of their lives. These aren't children, and the quicker we start treating them as adults, the quicker they'll learn to obey the l

FastAPI and it's very opinionated "ecosystem" of "easy to use" and "hipster-esque documented" tools are fast-becoming a horrible one-man show version of Django, and we will all regret going so deep into it

Also: who is working to usurp the free web and bloat it further. Examples being: DoH, cert-pinning, VMs inside apps (TikTok) and those advertising ID things that Google and Mozilla pushed.

Definitely not enough democracy. The plebs must just rather do as they're told, I see.

Yet he literally can't get existing laws to be policed and acted on by government officials. Hardly absolute power when judges brush off his work left right and center.

It's just docker containers. As a technical person I was confused reading that at least 3 times until I made the mental connection that it's docker containers. So yes you are right it's made to sound more opaque and nefarious

The word "non-profit" is the problem. People assume it means charity or "company that does good without seeking profit" or some similar variation. Instead, they are basically government-codified vehicles for tax, account

Are we also "free" to not pay "voluntary" taxes then? We have to understand that we're N-levels deep into this spaghetti mess, and as a consequence of that it's very hard to argue anything from first-principles

I can't help but come away from this conversation with the impression that you people are talking about livestock and not human individuals with rights to their own body and bodily autonomy. This to me is straight out of the nazi/

All of what LLMs do now was impossible 5 years ago. Like it is so self-evident, that I don't know how to take the request for examples seriously.

Welcome to the new digital divide people, and the start of a new level of "inequality" in this world. This thread is proof that we've diverged and there is a huge subset of people that will not have their minds changed easily

Yes - I 100% think we should allow all voters to be able to vote on individual policy decisions. But democracy shouldn't be about giving them that choice only if they are educated and informed on the topic, that is antithetical to de

I think this is some sort of fallacy that (us) intellectuals easily fall into. Education and understanding of a topic for the most part does not sway peoples' opinion. And democracy shouldn't be about that, because then it becomes

I'm not sure how to parse/take your comment. Are you saying people are too uninformed to make decisions on public policy? Look, if that's the case, and that's how we want government to be run, then let's just come o

All the more reason why we shouldn't vote for parties and politicians but rather vote on specific individual decisions/topics/choices. It's 2025, we should be able to have more granular control over the direction our gov

I use Grok and it's free (even Grok3). I definitely don't hit limits unless it's a pretty heavy day and I do a lot of adjustments. Also, don't send entire codebases to it, just one-off files. What's quite amazing is

Not OP. But it's hard to untangle this entire mess. On the one hand, this person & party is kind of the "choice" made by a large chunk of the people as per the votes, and yet (if true) he's broken certain laws that

Well they're not allowed to beat up and intimidate criminals, so what else are they supposed to do? We've turned police into armed Karens.

And go one step further: The culture that allows drug addicts and mentally ill people to do that. And even further: The culture that doesn't want to fix the aforementioned problem with their culture.

As a general rule, I find that the "left" is always guilty of every single thing they accuse the right of doing. They just don't phrase it that way and think that they can control the narrative forever. The narrative, unfortu

As much as I agree that this forum shouldn't turn political, it's hard to ignore the metaphorical war that is happening on the internet at the moment. It's a revolutionary war for people to take back the narrative that's
