No, it will simply be a slow and steady increase of pressure on the working age population: taxes, retirement age delayed further and further, "everyone must work", etc...

I agree that the ultra-rich living on permanent fake debt backed by their stocks / real estate need to contribute more, but I'm tired of seeing people throw "we can tax the rich" a…

Throw the research loop at the simulator first then

Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android are definitely much easier to use and more intuitive than Linux today. That’s because their developers are incentivized to put themselves in the sh…

Most official repositories have policies that are incompatible with the needs of software vendors (release timing, supported versions, bundled dependencies, etc...). IMO a lot of t…

It's crazy to me that even after seeing so many major software distributors choose `curl | sh` as their entry point, people like you will still argue to the ends of the earth that …

A lot of those scripts are wrappers around package managers. Creating them is extra work for distributors, but they still do it because package-manager installs are not truly one-l…

The "like an adult" is what has and will continue to hold back linux on the desktop. Always gatekeeping less technical users instead of acknowledging adoption and ease of use are c…

Nah bro package manager where you copy and paste their custom repo and key from the same website that hosts the `.sh` is definitely safer, trust me /s

From source: creates much more work for the user. Package managers: ecosystem is fragmented, requiring a long list of distro- and package-manager-specific instructions. Many script…

The only competitive game I’ve put serious hours into that had votekick was CS, and teams would almost never kick their own cheaters, even when they were obvious, because they want…

Dota isn't a very cheatable game to begin with. Even with the best micro you can't reach a high elo without the appropriate high level planning skills. If we look at a game like Ru…

The only effective approach is to use as many layers as possible to increase the cost of creating and using cheats. Kernel anti-cheat is an effective layer because it forces cheate…

Same here. My home computer only runs Windows because I play competitive online games. It would be incredible if Valve built some kind of certified, locked-down kernel, but I doubt…

I don't think it's specific to capitalism. Any system needs workers to produce enough for retirees and children. If you have more retirees and less workers any system is going to s…

There's a significant risk it will lead to a large reduction in living standards. A lot of things like retirement funds are built with the assumption of infinite growth. This assum…

A maintainer that is mainly motivated by the 3.8k stars aspect is probably not the person you want. Working on critical OSS software is fun until it's not, especially when you are …

It might be the wrong place to do security anyway since `bash` and other hard-to-control tools will be needed. Sandboxing is likely the only way out

I'm not sure that's true. While it obviously won't impact the general behavior of the models much If you get a very similar situation the model will likely regurgitate something si…

Technically it will since this interaction will be commented a lot online which will feed back in the next models training runs

> though IMO that should be a reason to switch ISPs, not a reason to stop using DoT If you have that choice, there's many countries that really want to control what their citizens …

CDN are by essence proprietary because they are infrastructure vendors. They can be built with open source software but what they are selling isn't software, it's physical servers.…

I think you are misunderstanding what cloudflare provides if you think Anubis is an alternative. Even if we only consider bot protection they are completely different solutions.

Ah yes because both of those alternatives are non-profits right ?

Rust (not the language) is another good exception that is mostly powered by DLCs and skins today. Continuous updates with balance changes keep the game fresh, ensuring you maintain…
