> I always assumed that anything unencrypted is scanned one way or another

By this logic, I should be happy if mail delivered to my address always arrives already open.

To think that we almost decided on a common army in 1959… EU integration has slowed down massively since then.

If they really wanted to honour Kurt Vonnegut, Anthropic wouldn't exist.

I used to care about copyright, before AI came and I realised that it somehow does not apply to big corporations mass stealing. If Meta, Alphabet, Microsoft do not care about copyright, why should I?

I loathe movie adaptations and never watch them, but the source material The Martian was a very good read in my 12th grade.

I like hard SciFi with no aliens and plausible rules.

Stop reading into things what isn't there. The wolf is still eating fish, did you even watch it?

Dillo is very cool and the blog post says more than «I moved away from Github.»

It's actually quite interesting, I recommend to read it!

It is not democratic, as long as the President of the Commission is practically chosen by the European Council and the Parliament only can say yes or no.

And as shown in the last two terms of Von der Leyen, saying no doesn't actually do anything, because the same candidate can be proposed again.

> you can send a skyscraper to mars and people on HN will still be calling you a fraud

To date, SpaceX has sent nothing to Mars. Not to understate the company's accomplishment, but "people on HN" are fed up exactly with statements like yours.
