Headline: No Digital ID & No Age Verification

Actual contents:The legislation should require anonymous or pseudonymous proof-of-age based on privacy-preserving cryptography(emphasis added by me)

I don't get what part of "no age verification" means that you should introduce a legislation that requires a proof of age

This initiative is a fucking joke, even if the sentiment is agreeable

I think it's important to note/remind people that machine learning models are usually deterministic, LLM's and other generative AI stuff isn't only because the non-determinism is deliberately added in, as without non-determinism the results would be even more awful than they are these days

What is the most themable GUI toolking that works on Linux that you know of? Toolkits that require necromancy in order to use don't count.

@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... oh, that should be clarified, didn't get that from reading it originally

Also, when trying to subscribe, I'm just getting a "You already have an active subscription" pop up, so I'm not sure if I can subscribe to the separate newsletter without unsubscribing to the regular one?

Ignas Kiela @Ignas Kiela 1787032631

@nprofile1q... that's not really a manager, rather a requirements resolution algorithm that a bunch of managers use. It doesn't download required dependencies or do other stuff that package managers do

@Ignas Kiela 1787014484

"C and C++ do not have package managers" WRONG, they have like 20 different ones, and even then because people don't agree how things should work, almost every package manager has multiple different registries, they just call them distributions for some reason

@Blurry Moon @Pilgrim the argument boils down to "is reproducing code speech or production"

which I guess could lead down to destruction of copyright for code if it falls into the speech pile and gov still wants to control it

@nprofile1q... @like soume kinda, nebulrat as far as I understand using cmov would actually drop this optimization as it depends on branch prediction and cmov doesn't do anything in regards to that

@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... I mean it's not like they carry that much, they say 20-50kg to SSO, so a just a bunch of cubesats (tho the success record isn't great for them, only 2 successful launches out of way more attempts)

@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... some images show what appears to be the rocket in the container, some showing the engines, some showing the cone, though it's not clear enough whether it's the whole rocket or just a top/bottom half. The height of the rocket is reportedly 43ft so with a slightly less common 48ft container it should work?
