I agree with the sentiment but …

then nothing can be bricked because on paper you can desolder the rom chip and put another one in place.

Companies already put serial numbers in components and configure them so only specific ones work together, requiring OEM tools to pair them.
It’s imaginable that someone makes something similar with e-fuzes instead.

Aviation, Health, Space and Car industry have only 3 certified languages that they use. Ada, C and C++.

Rust is automotive certified since over half a year. https://ferrous-systems.com/blog/officially-qualified-ferrocene

Um das System zu entlasten man könnte ja jetzt legalisieren und sich später nach und nach mit rückwirkenden Konsequenzen beschäftigen.

Warum gibt es da eine Debatte?
Frankreich ist Atommacht und wird wohl kaum aus der EU austreten?

Das einzige was man Frankreich vorwerfen kann, ist im Fall eines potentiellen Einsatzes von Atomwaffen zu aggressiv zu eskalieren. Ein Europäisches Projekt würde wahrscheinlich passiver reagieren und wenn Frankreich schießt ist es eh vorbei. Deshalb hätte ein europäisches Atomwaffenprogramm einen ähnlichen Effekt wie mehr Geld für Frankreichs Atomwaffen, aber mit Veto für Ungarn.

Sound like you just have a smaller smartphone on your wrist. My smartwatch has a black and white (not grayscale) display as well as 5 physical buttons and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

While I use my phone for music I can certainly see some advantages:
physical buttons
smaller and lighter
less distraction than a phone
cheaper to replace if stolen or broken

shhh, if he reads this he will run of into the woods again to sulk.

Because Greg uses FreeBSD and would be even more lonely.

Started writing my own in-terminal editor recently.

When I ran it the first time I realized that I hadn’t implemented quitting yet.

Apart from the alignment problem*, having unchangeable laws can be really bad. The bill of rights shows that for tye US constitution, now what if a ‘new’ need arises for the law shows it self.

* the alignment problem is the still unsolved problem of getting even simple machine learning models/AIs to do what we want.

Messing around with rust is certainly worth it, as it can change the way you think in a way that improves code in whatever language you write.

One of the closest things to a large anarchist society exists in the middle east, yet it doesn’t get bombed by the US. This is because the kurds are fighting with the US against isis.

I generally agree with your opinions otherwise. Also, recommending multiple books/authors before giving general explanations will scare most people of.

More bike lanes in the center, especially for long distances

More rail infrastructure in the outer parts, especially an outer ring by light rail or subway

Better funding for Schools and stuff

“Land of the free”, doesn’t have right to roam…

Der U-Bahn Außenring sieht interessant aus, und die Flughafenverbindung kann nicht schaden. Die U8 und U6 kommen mir etwas redundant vor, da sie durch die U7 und S2 abgedeckt sind. Kenn mich in den anderen Gebieten nicht so gut aus.

Iirc they didn’t actually make any progress in the field of neuroscience and all the neuroscientist quit long ago because Musk rushed everything.

I don’t know if it has been translated but I would recommend “Die Känguru Chroniken”.

It’s a humourous book about a communist kangaroo moving in with a comedian. Many great jokes have established themselves in left leaning german meme culture as a result.

The book mostly has standalone chapters, but the sequels have more of a narrative throuline.
