I think you’re deliberately being obtuse. The rights holders that got a settlement out of Anthropic spent two years and probably a fortune fighting in court. If that’s “easy”, then sure, this is a solved problem and there’s no point discus

What does "weighted" mean in "emissions pre 1950 and post 2000 are weighted completely different"? The chart you're responding to has no weighting, 1 tonne of CO2 produced is 1 tonne of CO2 produced regardless of wh

The shenanigans AI companies have been up to recently (including boasting about criminal behaviour hacking other companies) without repercussions is pretty good proof that it isn't "easy".

Did you read the article? It's saying that DNSSEC as an implementation to prevent MITM is flawed; other solutions that protect against MITM are proposed.

No one making statements has an incentive to tell the truth though (in fact, they're all incentivised to keep proclaiming the RAMpocalypse will never end). Producers (Samsung, SK Hynix etc.) will not say "prices expected to drop&q

I think “This way the code stays readable/debuggable by humans” is a proof by example (not that the generated comments are necessarily bad). If the human can read/understand it well enough to comment it, then it is readable by hum

Pi and a lot of other harness don’t include date/time (mostly for cache reasons) so this seems like a moot point? Unless the model can somehow reliably make a tool call to get the date (which would be suspicious and also easy to mock o

I would say even smaller; but more than 90% of those SLAs will have explicit remediation and compensation clauses, hence “usually” wrt. to negotiating an SLA.

by digitalPhonix 29d ago
Depends on the SLA. Usually you negotiate an SLA to cover much more than a refund of the missed service targets (but with a fixed/known ahead of time cost for breaching the SLA).

That’s answering why use a text based UI. GP is asking why we’re stuck with TTYs (the typewriter interface) as the mechanism for applications to draw the text based UIs.

That's my point - GSL is NOT MSVC only, it's a general purpose library and NOT a standard library implementation of a toolchain so any compiler is expected to be able to compile it (it also explicitly targets clang & gcc).
