Your website seems to conflate "Europe" with the EU. Can you clarify, here and on the website, whether the data remains: * in _EU member state_ sovereign territory * in _European states'_ sovereign territory * on the contentinent of Europe or some combination of the above? I am specifically wondering about: * Out-of-Europe territories of European states. * UK, Norway, Russia, Switzerland, Serbia etc.

In Europe people generally use “Europe” and the EU interchangeably. I’m not sure many people would include Russia in Europe in normal speech, unless they were a geographer in which case Russia is partly “Europe” in some cases I think. Even when the UK was part of the EU if someone in the UK said “Europe” they meant continental Europe and someone in continental Europe would be unlikely to mean the UK if they said Euro…

We do not.

First clause: indisputable.

Second clause: maybe, maybe not. Europe hasn't always existed as a concept, and its longevity is unknown.

> LLMs cannot “crawl pages” or “scrape” or do anything - it’s an offline archive with a few convenience methods. Being a bit needlessly pedantic here. I think it's well understood in these circles that such models are being driven by agents, which absolutely can crawl and scrape. The only thing a human needs to do is write rules for the agent to follow.

No, it allows people to dodge accountability. It’s also not true. An LLM cannot visit the internet at all. There is no “agent” - that is a marketing term. It’s software and LLM that’s it.

There is no "software" - that is a marketing term. It's bits and that's it.

I’m sure many thought the same about the United States of America when it was founded.

Not how words work, try calling it bits in any setting where you mean software.

Wouldn’t matter in court anyway or anywhere you put it to the test even if you called it bits.

Point is dodging accountability by saying some “AI did it” when it’s not reflective of reality.

LLMs are read only and have no access to the internet :)

What I’d love to see is the ability to use my own domain name, so that if that service ever goes under, I can set up a git service with the same paths and everyone relying on my software can continue to do so. It’s just hard to find the trust to invest in a completely new domain to host my projects under.

I think you should be able to do that if you run your own Tangled knot. I'd assume that you can host it under your domain which means your git service will remain even if Tangled itself is down or goes under.

Will it have continuous integration or is it focused on just version control and issue tracking?

It does already, but it's not yet properly documented. You can already run your own Gitea runner and point it at Pushin. I'll also add managed CI runner support based on Firecracker VMs soon. Currently, I use self-hosted runners for my CI, but the UI is a bit rough. I wanted to merge a PR today that fixes all that but then HN happened so just bear with me a little longer :)
