I think it's because go's community sticks close to the standard library:

e.g. iirc. Rust has multiple ways of handling Strings while Go has (to a big extent) only one (thanks to the GC)

In modern societies: top 1% of earners pay roughly 30% of taxes top 5% pay 65% of taxes top 10% pay 80% of taxes while bottom 50% usually barely make 2% of taxes.

Heavy redistribution of wealth is already in place and it's not making things better.

Forcing Apple to implement interop and such extra features requires a non-trivial amount of labour. That trickles down to the customer in many subtle and not so subtle ways that the parent comment mentioned (more resources and higher inter-dept. coordination ceiling for a streamlined UX, etc.)

Comparing it to opinions about gay marriage makes you look dishonest, "None of this is about you, at all" makes you look plain silly

It doesn't make me happy. The more the EU regulates, the less innovation we have.

It's not a meme, it's reality

They are offering a product/service, so going in too much detail would be a bad business practice, no?

But true, would love to see this in OpenSource in the wild

Isn't it more like "compressing" interactions with and patterns of 500MB of data?

Like, it's not only text search but also has a degree of generalization (e.g. in labelling new documents)

Following a car in front of you in perfect conditions (otherwise it full-on disengages) just to comply with the regulatory labels is whack.

I don't get why people cheer on it and even compare it with Tesla, which goes for ... actual self driving

Wonder what effect alignment training will have on the output quality

Isn't using compounding inflation rate on top of CPI-inflated dollars double counting? It looks and feels like 40+% to me and everybody else

Those are just the countries where you can release an AI product without worrying that you'll get sued into oblivion by the state.

See e.g. EU AI regulation

That's definitely an awesome mindset.

What helped you land your current job more? The network you already had or the cold messages?

I think it's meant as an add-on to stand out when applying to a job.

I'm quite Junior so I don't know if this applies to more senior positions, but in my experience when applying to jobs my Github page was always a point of discussion when I got an interview.

Could be they offload the computing to something like REPL or another third-party on the backend, or?

That's disingenuous of you. This article sparks conversations about workplace boundaries and corpo vs personal ethics and rights, as can be clearly seen by the other comments.

Use common sense. "[..] blood on your hands [..]" implies he's indirectly a murderer at least. Calling someone a murderer is in the best case defamation or an insult.
