It was fine when rendering (esp. text) was server side and not client side like it is now. At least LAN (10MB ethernet) was basically transparent. Internet was shit mainly because everyone was on 56k modems.

GTK and Qt do all their rendering client side and transfer bitmaps to the server requiring much more bandwidth.

Take this example for instance:

fn doMath(x: anytype) @TypeOf(x) {
  // …
}

There is no way to know what that function requires as input.

Of course you can't know. That function has no requirements. As such there's only one thing it can do.... return x. Anything else is making an assumption about the parameter being passed.

I thought TrumpCoin was the sovereign's wealth fund.

Are the Iranian government all going to eat pizza with glue on?

Indeed. The play book isn't hard to read. Everything is about American isolationism, nationalism and ensuring absolute power over all of it.

• Greenland is about mining rights because China has all the minerals.
• Canada is similar with Oil and Gas thrown in.
• Panama is about total control of trade routes to deny other nations.
• Tariffs are about forcing a foreign relationship that is one sided to America through bullying (...even though tariffs are not as worrying as he thinks they are).
• Anti-woke is about getting his people into positions of power.
• Deportations are about "purifying" the American people. Making the electorate "his people".
• The unconstitutional executive orders are him challenging the legal structure and waiting for someone to tell him "No!".
• When somebody does, expect them to be excised.

American first with him in absolute control.

Of course, the BBC led the way by having it's own mastodon instance...

Which has been a trial for nearly two years now.

In one story they're using PTX on Nvidia H800s. In another they're on Huawei chips.

Which is it? Are we all just hypothesising?

In the UK, which I had assumed this article was targeted at convincing as the Guardian is a UK paper, we already have a very good online government portal for taxes, driver licenses, car registration, and loads of other things.

Taxes use your national insurance number. Drivers license things use your licence number. Car tax uses the car registration number. Not unified. Works fine.

In terms of trade offs, especially for Americans, interoperability means unifying state and Federal systems so that you can renew your driver's license, register a car you just bought, file your taxes, and renew your passport online in the same portal.

I think they need to see gov.uk.

With the amount governments seem to be on the AI train I'm becoming more and more worried about the fall out when the hype bubble does burst. I'm really hoping it comes sooner rather than later.

Why do people have such trust that a national ID won't be misused to further erode personal privacy? I have no idea why this policy is seen as at all positive.

(Any responses along the lines of "you've already lost your privacy" or "the government already has the data" won't convince me. There wouldn't be a push for a national ID if the scheme could be built out of the data the government already have)

It's coming. He's going to do it.

YOU'RE FIRED!
