<p>It is bullshit also because it hasn’t protected anyone.  Copyright only protects massive corporations.<p>It gives the false sense to individuals that they are protected but they steal from individuals all the time and have the resources to define themselves from us.<p>They can stall in court for years to bankrupt you.<p>At least without copyright it puts us on equal footing</p>

<p>It already happens.  Instead of a book look at TikTok for example.  Come up with a cool product, if it sells at all, it will be immediately counterfeited.<p>The issue is that copyright is only protecting massive corporations.<p>Did copyright helped against AI? Nope.<p>If copyright was eliminated, say you are a great up-and-coming filmmaker, you could go make your own marvel movie.  You might break into the industry because of that.  You make some one off superhero movie is far less likely to hit with an audience.<p>Copyright doesn’t help small individuals, it only helps corporations protect themselves against us.</p>

<p>Infra as code and devops shit.  Fable is there in general because things it doesn’t know I can point at documentation and have it do a reasonable job.  Opus 5 sucks.  If I don’t have fable quota, I drop to Opus 4.8 and hold its hand.</p>

<p>I think the SOTA models are good at development in general.  But for some reason people want to get pissy they aren’t writing bug free code or perfect code.<p>Senior devs don’t write bug free code.  I don’t expect bug free code from my agents.  I expect things to be missed.</p>

<p>That was true a year ago but is no longer true.  Deepseek is training and running inference on Huawei chips.<p>The times of China needing Nvidia chips is quickly coming to an end.<p>I guarantee that China will scale faster, build faster, and ultimately produce far more chips than the rest of the world combined in 5 years.<p>Our export controls sank the west.  It would have been better to allow them to use Nvidia chips.  Now they will have chip fabs that aren’t quiet as good but way more of them.  Their investment into sustainable will make the power so cheap that the less efficient chips will not be a relevant issue</p>

<p>Are you paying attention to what ICE is doing in the US? Deporting US citizens, murdering US citizens, and moving towards white nationalism.<p>Unless the US makes a huge correction in 2028, we are looking to be like the handmaids tale.  And I would say China is a culture closer to Canada than that.</p>

<p>AI has forced a dramatic shift in my view on intellectual property.  The laws as they exist only protect corporations now.<p>They do not protect individuals no matter how much people want to think they do.  AI has proven this.<p>I think to level the playing field all copyright, trademarks, and patents laws should be eliminated.<p>If I want to make a marvel movie, I should be allowed to and profit from it.<p>AI let the cat out of the bag and there is no going back.  We need to let individuals profit just like corporations can from what is considered theft right now.</p>

<p>As I responded above, my 17 can't vote in the coming election and my 13 year old gets the same ads.<p>Sorry, under 18, should be 100% no to political ads.  These companies know who is under 18.</p>

<p>I can explain it.  I graduated college, got a job, got married, had kids.  Going to shows just didn’t happen.<p>Now I am getting back into it with my teenager.<p>On the flip side, I was part of an irc group back in the day where with permission of local bands, I would take their cds and get them released by music piracy groups.  I would rip and release them.  It got more ears on their music.  This was all in the heavy metal scene.</p>

<p>We ban targeted ads.  Great but then what?  My oldest is 17, no targeted ads to him so that means he gets a million political ads.  To me, it is just as problematic.  I would argue that under 18, there should be zero ads.  Yeah I know it will never happen.</p>

<p>I am confused by your comment.  Any EV with a 250+ mile range and your scenario is moot.  You just go.<p>Had an EV since 2018, range is never a concern.<p>My only concern is that traditional American car manufacturers still suck at making EVs.</p>

<p>You act like the existing packages being published in this ecosystem aren’t already slop or quickly getting there.<p>We already do cooldowns and disable preinstall and postinstall scripts on all packages except for ones that actually require it.<p>I bet if you looked at 70% of your dependencies pulled in, you would be horrified.  I would rather have that capabilities via code in my repos at this point.</p>
