Ok I agree that de-banking is not a good thing overall from a political perspective.

But in this case, it seems fairly clear that A/I was providing services to organizations listed as Terrorist Organizations by the US, UK, and Canada. Seems like the best way around this is... don't do business with terrorists? I'd understand more if these were ONLY deemed by the US, but this is an international group.

This has to be fake... or similar.

Their CMO's bio lists "20,000 'qualified' quantum AI contacts on linkedin" as the SECOND line in his bio.

"Business Management by ESADE. Co-Founder and CMO of Multiverse Computing. President, “barcelonaqbit-bqb”, 20,000 “qualified” quantum AI contacts on LinkedIn. VP of the AMETIC Innovation..."

Dude there is nothing "far right" about him.

Way too broad a brush to paint with. If we want to retain any sort of liberal democracy we need to stop with the rhetoric that "if you're not as far in X direction as I am, you must be on the other side". Its destroying the democratic party.

I'm a staunch democrat, and this is just sad to see. Progressive and centrist should both be able to coexist. We should be able to call out ineffective policies within our own movement without being called far right radicals.

This has been tried multiple times actually via ISAs and other instruments. Immediately inverts to adverse selection - eg the students who are going for a more lucrative option don't want to participate.

That said, the letter here wasn't about undergrad or expensive college - its about the federal government stripping funding for research for political reasons. Sad. We should be investing in US research capabilities. And like it or not, our research universities are pretty freaking good at... research.

We used to build great big crazy things too, lots via research universities due to vast federal and defense research.

That has changed. It should be reinstated. Cut red tape, get back into the business of taking (literal) moonshots as a government.

The CRDT enables eventual consistency on these schema updates, so a new field will be eventually consistent

This seems to miss the plot on so, so many points. Not worth a read if you came to the comment section first.

Doesn't even discuss open-source when a key point its making is "tech is built on the backs of others".

I have a late model Audi, and a Tesla Model 3. Audi has all the bells and whistles.

Doesn't come close to the safety I feel in the Tesla. Not even close. I know anecdotal

Being "pretty good" holds us back by atrophying our ability to handle hard things.
