"The right of equal suffrage among the States is another exceptionable part of the Confederation. Every idea of proportion and every rule of fair representation conspire to condemn a principle, which gives to Rhode Island an equal weight in the scale of power with Massachusetts, or Connecticut, or New York; and to Deleware an equal voice in the national deliberations with Pennsylvania, or Virginia, or North Carolina. Its operation contradicts the fundamental maxim of republican government, which requires that the sense of the majority should prevail. Sophistry may reply, that sovereigns are equal, and that a majority of the votes of the States will be a majority of confederated America. But this kind of logical legerdemain will never counteract the plain suggestions of justice and common-sense. It may happen that this majority of States is a small minority of the people of America; and two thirds of the people of America could not long be persuaded, upon the credit of artificial distinctions and syllogistic subtleties, to submit their interests to the management and disposal of one third. The larger States would after a while revolt from the idea of receiving the law from the smaller. To acquiesce in such a privation of their due importance in the political scale, would be not merely to be insensible to the love of power, but even to sacrifice the desire of equality. It is neither rational to expect the first, nor just to require the last."

Have you seen Wickard v. Filburn?

Germany is one prominent example for obvious historical reasons.

But https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entrenched_clause are not all that uncommon in general.

Fable is great as a "manager" model (writing specs, opening issues, doing PRs, verifying fixes) while Codex cranks out the code. Especially if you tell it to roleplay as an Eastern European software engineer and "tell it like it is without consideration for anyone's feelings".

You don't have to choose between Elm and TypeScript though, there are so many other options now - Haskell, F#, Rust, OCaml, just to name a few.

These days, though, why not just use Haskell itself? Upstream ghc cancompile to wasm for several major releases now and there are several actively developed web frameworks, some of them very Elm-inspired, e.g. https://haskell-miso.org

It doesn't matter how good a language is in theory if people using it for practical purposes end up having to abandon it.

Fable is also very expensive, unfortunately.

It will be interesting to see how cheap they can make it long term.

It was true every time though. The capacity of frontier models to tackle complicated issues has improved immensely. I still remember the first time I saw a model do a non-trivial issue end to end, and that was less than two years ago. Now they can genuinely do whole projects with human only as a supervisor / quality checker.

Do they still make mistakes? Sure. So do humans, though, so it would be unrealistic to expect perfection. The question is: does Fable make fewer mistakes than the median human coder? And at this point I'm genuinely not sure anymore.

If you just keep throwing feature requests at an LLM, then yes, this happens. However it can self-correct if you specifically give it engineering debt / code cleanup as a task. And Fable in particular is very good at this exact thing.

With DS4 it would have a lot more bugs, too.

And they are welcome to crowdfund for them. But they need to be explicit about what exactly the money is funding.

Fail fast is a feature, not a bug. It's much better to get clear and actionable feedback rather than the page silently rendering incorrectly in some subtle manner.

Yes, that's correct. I am calling into question the democratic processes of any so-called "representative democracy".

> Also, as of a day or two ago, Europeans can be prosecuted for sharing any RT (Russia Today) content, even in private, regardless of content.

If you mean the July, 2 ruling of EU CoJ, I don't see anything there about "even in private". What they said is that if you have a website and put RT videos on it, it's "broadcasting" regardless of whether the website is freely accessible and/or run by a non-profit. Which sounds reasonable to me. The original ban on RT is still silly but that's a separate story.

EU has stronger protections against large private entities. Some people care more about that than they do about government (FWIW I think those people are wrong and the end result is the same, but it's a complicated subject).

No, it is not, and no, they do not.

Perhaps your democracy has been in decline for some time now?

The Council represents state governments, not nations. A nation consists of all the people in it, not just those who appointed themselves to speak on its behalf.

Isn't this simply because the political realignment in US resulted in an arrangement where higher incomes generally correlate with left-wing political views? And it's not exactly a new thing that higher incomes also correlate with fewer children.

Indeed, they also point out that the finding only holds true for US whites but not for blacks. Which is also consistent with this being just a reflection of economic status.
