Data laws in EU mandate that a company has to tell you every single entity it has shared your data with, regardless of the sector they operate in. What you're referring to is that a bank does not require to tell you whether your accoun

> The government did request the data. What's your source? That is not what the news says. Also, you know you can easily impersonate any email? That's a flaw of the email protocol.

It's fintech, it's all about growth, not customer care. That's "legacy old bank stuff they will disrupt along all the regulations".

I can achieve more with AI than without. What's the complain exactly? That AI still hasn't made my effort and thinking and directing and checking and ideas completely redundant and thus out of job? It's like you people see ev

It seemed a very informative piece of journalism, very well done to be honest into the topic of "how the breach happened and how did Israeli intelligence failed". I did not like the narrative of equating the pains of the two sides

PBS Frontline isn't a bad source of information, but too prone to making stories and narratives fit the 60 minutes mark even at the cost of heavy cherry picking and producing misrepresentations.

The never type seems very useful in various languages to either signal that a branch can never happen (the example of string -> bytestring never erroring) or to mark that a function will never return a value (and thus control) to the cal

Somebody tell the Chinese companies to stop dumping AI, so US labs can keep burning pension funds money wrapped in VC checks fine dumping AI at a huge loss. In any case I find the dumping argument stupid: they are giving both the model weig

I don't understand how do you think that would work and who would pay the bill.

What's next? Full blown communism? In any case, bad idea if other retaliate with their exports. Also, US cannot really use the oil it produces, because it can refine very little of it. Any export ban would require massive investments.

Oil is sold globally. It doesn't matter if in Texas wells are producing it at a penny for barrel, if the global prices are high that oil is going to be sold to Philippinos, Japanese, Italians or South Africans. So, at the same time, it

As an European, trust me, Trump has little to do with it. We've been doing fine championing our nationalism instead of creating a strong internal market. Because Hungarians decide in Hungary and Spaniards in Spain doing business across

You're naive if you're thinking the scumbags running the US companies aren't using your data. In any case old rules apply: if privacy is a concern don't share the data. I share all my work-related code because it's
