French Guiana is only part of the EU because it’s part of France, and even then it needs plenty of exceptions to make it work.
Cyprus was already aligned with the rest of Europe in economic laws.
Canada would need to redo half of its laws to join the EU, and Canadian companies would either need to produce two versions of everything or drop the US market altogether.
It’s more realistic to aim for a close bilateral treaty than for membership, at least for next few decades.
You are thinking about dignity and imagining a British aristocrat drinking tea from a fine porcelain cup with the pinky held up while plotting world domination. That’s the vernacular meaning of dignity.
In the context of human rights, dignity is the natural right of every single person to be valued and respected for their own sake, and to be treated ethically.
You don’t infringe it by saying that your government is being managed by incompetent or immoral people. You infringe it when you say women belong in the kitchen and not in the office, or that black people are naturally inferior to white people, or that gay people don’t have right to love who they love, etc.
The same way your right to wave your hands ends before they reach other people’s faces, free speech can’t include speech infringing on other people’s dignity (in the legal/philosophical sense).
Regulating speech within this frame is as bad as stopping a bar fight by dragging the instigator away.
I’m on page 12 and I already saw a false equivalence between human learning and AI training.
Is it so surprising that the mindset that makes people unable to face changes in one area of their lives also makes them unable to face changes in other areas?
Because neural networks aren’t known to suffer from model collapse when using their output as training data. /s
Most billionaires are mediocre sociopaths but Elon Musk takes it to the “Emperors New Clothes” levels of intellectual destitution.
x11 doesn’t support HDR at all, so even with HDR support still not being fully mature in KDE and GNOME that’s a argument for wayland.
I’m betting on Google destroying Google instead.
The main limitation is the VRAM, but I doubt any model is going to be particularly fast.
I think phi3:mini on ollama might be an okish fit for python, since it’s a small model, but was trained on python codebases.
Paraphrasing Churchill, if AI companies were plagiarizing hell’s works I would make at least a favourable reference to the devil.
In this case that’s exactly what we need, someone with more money than god that can set precedents to protect the authors and artists that need it the most.
For English yes, but there’s no equivalent in other languages.
People are mentioning drip, and that’s on the Play Store. It’s literally the same amount of effort as installing a surveillance app.
Any mail service that supports PGP encryption at rest, like mailbox, is better than proprietary solutions like Tuta or Proton, as it lets you manage your own encryption key, and use any client you want.
