I value them a lot, happy that the EU didnt bend down to Apple.

If it werent for the EU, the companies would get away with all sorts of shit.

Is as if people forget companies are evil by nature and will fuck you any chance they get.

Very different context: that PR is from a maintainer, and trusted member of Zig, which surely discussed the implementation/design internally as well

It's a trade off for sure, maybe if companies could have "honeypot" environments where they update everything and deploy their code, and try to monitor for sneaky things.

What does that actually do? Force the "effort" to be static to what I set?

Americans are for the most part incredibly out of touch and still think they are at the center of the world.

They voted in the orange turd twice, a third of their population didn't even vote.

The US has become a laughing stock worldwide and internally looks like a prelude to Idiocracy.

Well, at least they know how to hire smart people, from China/Russia/Germany/India.

Bringing it back to your message, they love this! To be the center of attention, show off how strong and powerful of a nation they are.

Except, they messed with the wrong region. Same mistake Russia made.

Knowing Sam, that's exactly what happened -- and the echo chamber inside OpenAI wouldnt dare to disagree
