> But without a data agreement in place, you shouldn't (or maybe can't) paste in code

There's a checkbox you can toggle so that Openai doesn't use your code to train their models.

And I find the "chatbot" experience different and better than aider/copilot. It forces me to refocus on the really useful interfaces instead of just sending everything, and makes it better to verify everything instead of just accepting a bunch of changes that might even be correct, but not what I exactly want. For me, the time spent verifying is actually a bonus, because I read faster than I can type. I think of it as a peer programmer who just happens to be able to type much, much faster and doesn't mind writing unit tests or rewriting the same thing over and over.

Maybe if a lot of you in big tech hadn't misused our personal data and sold it to the highest bidders, or hadn't stiffled small tech innovations through monopoly, the EU wouldn't need to regulate you so hard.

I think that's just the typical HN cynicism.

I can confirm, it's still very helful, thank you!

They don't say how to make big money, don't they? Also, the tl;dr is index funds and patience.

This is a good answer, if one isn't bothered by the affiliates running wild in the neighbourhood. Clickbank is simple to set up, accepts individual vendors, and has subscriptions. The downside is you can't create a subscription product without going through approval, which adds delay. And also you'll need a separate CRM if there are many customers, because the backend is very basic.

There's an argument that the US did everything to prevent Europe from coalescing into a single force and only want Europe to be a single market, not much more, for instance by convincing Eastern European countries to trust their protective umbrella rather than the French-German domination.

It's bad if half of your fleet is also grounded.

> Win the developers over and the rest will follow.

Will they really? Anecdotal evidence, but nobody I know in real life knows about Claude (other than it's an ordinary first name). And they all use or at least know about ChatGPT. None of them are software engineers of course. But the corporate deciders aren't software engineers either.

> “They didn’t listen to A.I. when A.I. told them things they didn’t agree with,” Dr. Rodman said.

Replace AI with patient, and it's a far too familiar experience.

Or denial/rejection is natural defense reaction for people who feel threatened.

I'm a zombie if I have less than 8 hours, that's the absolute minimum. I drank a lot of coffee for years even though that had diminishing returns, until I realized it just concealed my exhaustion instead of helping, so I stopped.

Of course, spending 12-14 hours a day facing brights screens do not help.

Presumably free refers to the users on their free plan, which does not include code generation/autocomplete except for tests.

You are trying to relate two different legal systems that are don't necessarily have equivalence. The members, although not magistrates, are independent and factually irremovable. When they are in "court" formation as is the case here, they are judges by law, and it is a court. That's where you appeal the decisions of lower judges. Their decisions ("arrêt") are case laws and precedents that affect the entire justice system (in the relations between a citizen and the State).

> That was specifically addressing the contempt of court issue.

There is no such thing as contempt in the US sense, in French courts. The closest would be outrages, which does not apply to the issue in question (delay tactics). Many US legal concepts, even the most basic ones, are simply not transposable to the French system.

For the purpose of this matter, the Conseil d'État is a court, not an administrative body, it is the highest level and last resort of jurisdiction for administrative law, i.e. the law pertaining to relations between citizens and the State or the local governments. It intervenes as the highest appelate court of administrative tribunals. Its members are judges and their decisions are judgement.

But the Conseil d'État has also many other attributions that are non-jurisdictional.

> They cannot decide to fine someone or put someone in jail.

That's because only criminal court can do that. A divorce court cannot fine someone or put someone in jail. That doesn't make it any less of a court. A civil court doesn't fine, it only grants damages. That doesn't make it any less of a court.

Netflix had all the paid TV channels worldwide, physical media sales and video-clubs as competitors. Uber had (still has) taxis. All of these were entrenched competitors with strong moats.

It's easy with hindsight to underestimate the forces of Netflix's competitors, but consider that even today, the revenue of Pay TV worldwide is still bigger that the revenue of streaming platforms. And unlike streaming platforms, Pay TV make profits hand over fist and didn't incur crazy debts to gain marketshare. They may be on the way to extinction, but they'll make tons of profits on their way out.

They don't claim that NSA found Bin Laden. They say that they were part of a multi-agency effort that took 9 years to find him. And they say that human intelligence led them to who the courier was.

But that would mean any attacks made by or involving spies are terrorism.

I doubt the "next few years", and if the world shifts to multipolar, it won't solve the problem, it will just move everyone to the "bad side" where frictions big and small abound.

And yet the same Federal government called the attack against USS Cole "terrorism" and its perpetrators "terrorists", and implemented a range of "anti-terrorism" measures in the Navy after that. And it was a military target, and all the victims were military.

So really, terrorism is what people say is terrorism.

I don't know about that. When Al Quaeda attacked the USS Cole, a purely military vessel without a single civilian casualty, the US administration and the entire US military called it an act of terrorrism.

Here's the thing. 99% of people aren't writing compilers or debuggers, they're writing glorified CRUDs. LLM can save a lot of time for these people, just like 99% of people only use basic arithmetic operations, and MS Excel saves a lot of time for these people. It's not about solving new problems, it's about solving old and known problems very fast.

The "harm" is in relation to other people's constitutional freedoms and rights. Freedom of speech isn't inherently superior to, say, freedom of assembly, freedom of belief, the right to safety in one's person and one's properties, the right to vote, and so on...

It's a question of value: either you think Freedom of Speech is the highest form of freedom and right that one can hold, and all the other freedoms must come second, or that all freedom and rights are equal, and the role of the Constitution and the law is to find a balance between those.

The lawmakers decide. As I quoted, "the Law determines the limits of a freedom."

In France specifically, the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen (which is an integral part of the Constitution), defines freedom as doing anything which does not harm others, and that the Law determines the limits of a freedom.

Which means Freedom (including of Speech) in its very conception is more bounded that the US notion of Free Speech (which, even though also limited, is less restrictive).

However, Free Speech based on the First Amendment only applies to the individual's relations with the State. A private employer in the US can fire an employee for saying something that doesn't reflect the values of the company, even if that speech was lawful. In France (and I assume most Freedom of Speech countries), the constitutional protection applies even with private entities and an employee cannot be fired for a lawful speech. .

Isn't that the very principle of property taxes? And it has no relation to income, it's the very possession of property (or in this case, financial assets) that triggers it.

The Sud-Ouest article must have been updated because the version currently online does not mention that at all. Quite the opposite, the article quotes an official that was surprised that Durov would come to Paris anyway even though he knew he was under an arrest warrant in France, and another source says that he might have decided to come in France anyway because he believed he'll never be held accountable.

> non-compliance

It depends to what they're being asked to be compliant with.

It means complying with an order from a judge. Just like every other social media or really any form of communications (including emails, phone calls, letters) that operate in France (and in the EU) do.

It does, inasmuch as your sentenced described the NZ jurisdiction as a mockery on the basis that it "sells out" its citizens.

Considering the number of countries that extradite their own citizens, the bar for "selling out" and "mockery" must be quite low.

And most extradited people don't have the luxury of being able to delay their trial by 12 years.
