    thanks! but i think it's more of a double "two wrongs make a right": 1. i'm saying the SADR is more authoritarian and repressive than the Moroccan government. 2. i'm saying we (the…

    You don't need a constitution to depose leaders, a popular revolution will do the trick. Also, an impeachment clause doesn't prevent fascism. Many supposed democracies see their le…

    If you can find the empathy to do so, please reread my post realising that the people under a government are not the government itself. Morocco ≠ Moroccans. The reality is we're al…

    Ok so anyone making a company ends up getting the same tax benefits on company taxes (to "attract investments"), but they don't get access to the "kartiya", which is the welfare ca…

    Here's a link to Morocco's constitution in English: https://www.constituteproject.org/constitution/Morocco_2011 We kinda voted for it, so it's quite binding on the king. We also ha…

    From what I understand, it's a secular movement but it's not anti-religion. It's rooted in socialism and Arab nationalism way more so than religion, although I think Islam has 'off…

    A couple of misconceptions about Western Sahara I've seen pop up over the past few days: - most (90%) of Morocco's phosphate mining is done in non-disputed territories (it's mentio…

    I'd wager that a "main agent" is really just a bunch of subagents in a sequential trench coat. At the end, in both cases, it's a back and forth with an LLM, and every request has i…

    Yeah for sure but I think frameworks will adapt. It's like going back to 2002 and saying that it's better to program in Java because of all the IDEs available and all the corporate…

    I don't buy it either. I've been building my own backend framework for the past 2.5 years, and even though it's a DSL over Python and there's no documentation online and barely one…

    I am curious actually! In general about your experiments, but also about integrating this detection algorithm to wider systems. Did you run any autogpt-like experiments with the AI…

    He mentions it in the video. They couldn't rely on Elm, which was too young at the time, for their migration away from Flash. The scale of creating a language was too big for Prezi…

    No, life goes on and it's not a calamity. It's pretty bad, but we'll have another crisis if tourism goes down because of the bad publicity of the earthquake. For many Moroccans, we…

    Please come. Tourism is the main livelihood for many Moroccans, and the areas badly affected are mostly rural. The best thing you can do to support us is to keep your plans :)

    I'm curious what companies stand to gain the most from this discovery... I understand the promises of LK-99, but where do you think where we'll see it be applied first?

    As an Arabic speaker, the verse in the Qur'an means to me that fasting helps you remember Allah. Islam has no concept of empathy for all beings, or enlightenment really. The assump…

    In my use case, I find the lack of features of msgspec more freeing in the long run. Pydantic is good for prototyping, but with msgspec I can build nimble domain specific interface…

    Title slightly misleading... The article makes the point that downtowns are turning from office to social centres and the $453B figure is more of an investment in repurposing offic…

    I think the difficulty in finding other examples is reflective of the "emergent"/"meta modern"/"systems thinking" space being extremely heady to this day. The people there are good…

    Wayland's biggest disadvantage is that I can't use my computer as a heater anymore. With X11, I had that feature everytime I would try connecting a second screen to my HiDPI laptop…

    A tangent: how hard would it be to integrate Elm into this? I think as a language it has a lot of teaching potential combined with natto. One library that could be useful is elm-ta…

    Curious to know whether that checklist is framed in terms of things to do or benefits they would get. I would guess they would perceive it as less daunting if you present them with…
