My bad. The only point I was trying to make is that there’s no left vs right conclusions that you can draw from this.

We’re talking about erosion of privacy and draconian internet surveillance. Brexit was a major screw up and I’m not here to defend any side, just to dispel this illusion that somehow the left are the good ones and the right is the bad far right.

The whole left vs right is a useless caricature. And it’s especially meaningless when comparing ideologies across country borders. Better talk in terms of policies.

Can you give an example of what happened in UK that points to this issue?

But do you agree this bill is positive?

The first wave will be to mandate ID verification for online services. Some people will then start using p2p services, so the next step is to ban devices that can run non-approved software. Probably having your own VPS running your own software will also not be allowed. And like that, all the avenues for escaping control will be closed… for your safety, of course.

Indeed, it’s also crazy to think that some people vaporize tin pellets in order to etch nanometer scale drawings on silicon crystals while others make mud pies. I think that disparity is even bigger.

If you have used WASI in the past, can you mention your use case? Very curious if you found it to give you an edge compared to other sandboxing like containers or VMs.

Sure, I do it, and many others. Some people say it's hard, but I think it's much easier than it used to be, technically. You have projects like https://stalw.art which make it quite easy. Single binary setup which covers all functionality you need. Setting up SPF, DKIM and DMARC is also easy. The only thing that remains is IP reputation, but even then, I haven't had major issues. People seem to receive the few emails that I send.

Yeah, but you get to choose who gets to rip off your data. Joking aside, perhaps there would be some privacy focused alternatives and most importantly for Europeans, they would be hosted in the EU.

More like EU became anti-Musk. And Tesla had great sales in the first half of 2026 in the EU.

At what age are you planning on introducing it?

It’s very risky to make these kind of claims. If the denominator (USD) gets obliterated they might very well be worth $1T. It’s all about liquidity and central banks have a whole bag of tricks at their disposal. They never want to see deflation shocks again and they prefer asset inflation.

What are you talking about? The Mac platform is so much more friendly for doing Linux related work. First of all it’s Unix so most tooling has MacOS variants, and secondly you have a miriad way to install WSL like VMs with shared disk.

He’s a software engineer with taste. I know taste is subjective but I happen to like he’s taste.

You might combine a general world model with a python coding model in that case. Not sure if it's better, just saying.
