Currently, what are the countries that are most primarily focused on the welfare of their people? Those I would consider good countries.

Would be nice if you could make a version people can run in their browser..!

This is an example of a single html-file that I serve: https://basketball.4e4.in It weighs in at around 30 KB including a favicon, and it's quite functional.

Note that this is the webpage: https://tejaswigowda.com/ffmpeg-webCLI

What has not been talked about here yet, and which isn't directly about AI, is this: "The benchmarks are neutral-to-faster, and the binary shrank by a few megabytes"

This says more about Zig versus Rust, and I was surprised by it, that a "direct translation" of this kind would give a somewhat faster and smaller binary.

That drastically reduces my level of interest (in spite of the write-up sounding very intriguing).

But then the call makes more sense: `describe {role: "admin", name: "alice"};`

And "However, the two variables would be correlated if the causal arrow were reversed" is missing "also", almost suggesting that the article gets it wrong and the two variables are not correlated because of the placement of the causal arrow...
