My account is 18+ years old with 100k+ of organic karma evenly split between posting and commenting. I was an active moderator for both my local country sub and part of the moderator reserves program.
It was not clearly explained.
It also doesn't take into account that there was just announced a large import deal done with Turkey and South Korea and other countries.

I found this Thread post ( https://www.threads.net/@hackit.tw?xmt=AQGzSJCZSi-xlWjNR7_1C... ) which seems to suggest that Counterspell (?) is doing a combined hackathon with GenAI Hackathon sometime in 2025.
I've followed their social, but for "hackers", it certainly feels off.
1) I see the mention of highschool throughout, what about younger hackers that are 13+ (7th & 8th grade)?
2) The directory (https://directory.hackclub.com/) is not working for me. Are there existing clubs in Asia? Specifically Taipei, Taiwan.
Could someone use your service to run an Android device that behaves as if in the United States, for example, to use Android apps or web services that are region blocked and restrict use of VPN/Proxy?
I travel hundred miles a day on average on a mix of local and highway, but all major roads in city and suburb.
The nuance is that IBM contacted Bill first, who he directed to speak with Gary. While Bill was under NDA, he did give Gary a heads up "Someone is coming to see you. Treat them well, they are important people." Gary did not and missed their visit and IBM went back to Bill.
Bill then bought Q-DOS (a rip off of Gary's DOS) for $75k and rebranded it MS-DOS and licensed it to IBM.
There is more to it, but that is the high level.

Myopic views of demand assuming unlimited supply and no consideration to political and long term economical independence from a neighboring authoritarian communist regime pointing nuclear weapons at you threatening forced unification is divorced from reality.
Short term sales never negate long term consequences of golden handcuffs at the cost of freedom and democracy.
I specifically distinguished Taiwan on island capacity vs TSMC global capacity in my prior reply. Taiwan TSMC fabs producing cutting edge fabrication is at 100% capacity. Taiwan is the specific topic of this post which is why I offer the differentiation.
As for the rest of your reply, we can agree to disagree. Have a good day.
Taiwan fabrication labs, where the most cutting edge tech is produced, are above capacity. This is the core of this discussion.
They are building new fabs inside and outside of Taiwan to catch up to demand, but as of now those are one or more generations behind.
To the rest of your initial statement, it starts with a flawed premise so not worth responding.
>I think Taiwan is being put as a sacrificial lamb almost by the US and I think it's in Taiwan's best interest to play to both sides more.
I am citizen, not a resident.
Taiwan's position as the first chain island is it's primary strategic advantage to both US as well as other Asian neighboring countries in the region.
Taiwan follows international law in effort to maintain and regain it's international standing. Taiwan maintains diplomatic and trade relations with China,but recognize that China is actively taking direct actions to limit Taiwan's political and economical relations and growth.
Reliance on a hostile neighbor that continually reminds you they will force unification by military action if necessary is a losing game, and trusting carrots like "one nation, two systems" lost all credibility with the downfall of Hong Kong.
TSMC sells more than it is capable of producing. This will likely continue to be a limiter for the foreseeable future. No revenue is being lost as a result of limiting export to China.
>Second, it creates a scenario in which China would take military action on Taiwan if they fall behind too far in AI due to the lack of the most advanced chips.
China's interest in Taiwan existed long before TSMC, it is ideological, not economical.
>If I’m a Taiwan citizen, I would clamor for the government to negotiate with the US and Chinese government to allow Chinese companies to use TSMC fabs. It’s one sure way to delay military action.
I am a Taiwan citizen and the majority of us don't want this, evident by the results of our recent election. That said, see prior point.

Taiwan law requires foreign communication providers to be a joint partnership with the Taiwan entity controlling majority stake. This was a deal breaker with StarLink and the talks fell apart.
>Taipei has been exploring ways to acquire satellite internet technology since 2018, including in talks with SpaceX. But Mr. Musk balked at a requirement that any foreign entity involved in communications infrastructure be a joint venture with a local partner that would hold a majority stake. Mr. Musk considered this “totally unacceptable,”

What are you basing this off of?
"In 2024, Automattic's revenue reached $710M up from $580.2M in 2022. The company previously reported $580.2M in 2022, $418.3M in 2021. They do this with a small 2k team."

I wasn't sure if this is a "we've indexed general troubleshooting and documentation and provide you a chatbot that understands Wordpress", or if this was doing more heavy lifting.
I have a question to that regard, are you just surfacing the "problem statement" in the newsletter or are you transparently providing the links to the SM sites that they were scraped from?

People move on as the usefulness of the next shiny thing fills the void of time.
"We believe that AI voices should not deliberately mimic a celebrity's distinctive voice — Sky's voice is not an imitation of Scarlett Johansson but belongs to a different professional actress using *her own natural speaking voice*"
You mean this?
"Each of the personas has a different tone and accent. “Sky” sounds somewhat similar to Scarlett Johansson, the actor who voiced the AI that Joaquin Phoenix’s character falls in love with in the movie “Her.” Deng, the OpenAI executive, said the voice personas were not meant to sound like any specific person."
As I stated prior, and thank you for making my point, despite being publicly available for near a year, there was minor mention of similarities with no general public sentiment.
>Altman hyped the May update with references to Her
If by "hype" you mean throwaway comments on social media that general population was unaware.
Drawing a parallel to a calming persona of an always on life assistant from pop culture in a few throwaway social media posts from personal accounts such as "Hope Everyone's Ready" isn't hyping it as Her any more than Anthropic is selling their offerings as a Star Trek communicator despite a few comments they've made on social media.
Ambiguous "some people" overstates any perceived concern and "most people don't use ChatGPT" understates how present they've been on the news.
Mobile app, which heavily emphasized voice and has "Sky" as it's default voice The ChatGPT mobile application had over 110+ million downloads across iOS and Android platforms before the May announcement.
In regards to the November announcement, yes, voice was very prominent in it with Sky as the default language. (https://youtu.be/pq34V_V5j18?si=66lEWxgteBbtKifl)
