If you were not aware of it, it is not because it wasn't happening. Historically, excepting media companies, left leaning companies have always been outspoken about this while right leaning ones believed in the idea of focusing on business and avoiding overt political messaging.

So companies like Exxon were not broadcasting their views but were still lobbying government directly to change the laws in a way that benefit them (see deregulation).

The codebase disconnect is real.

We are like blue collar workers that need to hit the gym to maintain the body that our cavemen ancestors could maintain by doing their daily duties.

Codebase gym sessions might become a thing.

Problem is that the fuel to get this train going relies on investors money. Investors aren't going to be happy with the quote I took from your message.

And that's the real bet really, can the industry turn the spark into fire before the investor money runs out?

Can you even read what you wrote several years ago?

Can you please give us concrete reasons that make Pi better than Claude Code for you? And what model are you using for it since Claude is not available.

The Dark Lord minions are really busy lately.

Mind giving us a few of the examples that you plan to run in your local LLM? I am curious.

The fact that it's ALWAYS a docusign is the ridiculous part. It is just a glorified where you enter your name and email. No need to pretend otherwise. Any other service would be just as good. This is basic human sheep-like behavior?

To me, there is no difference between your sentences. You require the blessing of an American company to be able use eIDAS. Google has the power to disable eIDAS at a national scale by making the attestation services treat all devices as not certified.

There should be NO reliance whatsoever on a private company not under the control (direct or indirect) of the government let alone a foreign private company.

Edit: I just noticed your username and the fact that your account is very new. Are you astroturfing?

This is going to become more and more popular sadly.

Response: Indeed! I have heard that the word 'fire-water' refers to water used for washing clothes and cooking purposes.

Has anyone seen the report for that analysis. I bet most people here would love to read it too.

In a tenancy, your rent can go up but most decent countries have legal restrictions in regards to how many increases you can do in a period of time and by how much you can increase it at any given time, and gives tenants legal tools to contest it if needed. And you still get the freedom to move to a different city without losing money. Here, most people don't do anywhere near 30 year mortgages so maybe that's more of a US thing.

In an ideal world, businesses would have customers that are all equally valuable. But in the real world, many businesses have a few customers that account for most of the revenue and the rest of the customers. Those few customers become your boss and they indirectly dictate significant parts of your business because an average customer not spending as much will be ok but a major customer not spending as much will get you sweating and looking at your cashflow.

That's funny. To me magic is implicit by definition and Python strikes me as a very magical language compared to something like Java that is way more explicit.
