I think you missed the /s (for sarcasm) at the end.

This is being heavily pushed by certain actors so it's not just politicians wanting to do something about CSAM: https://balkaninsight.com/2023/09/25/who-benefits-inside-the...

Many abuse survivors and youth advocates strongly oppose Chat Control; here is one voice detailing why: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/why-i-dont-support-privacy-in...

It's still objectionable with a false positive rate of 50-80%.

Go with reputable publishers (e. g. O'Reilly or No Starch Press) and you will get quality books.

> Because the entire reason we are here is due to the fact that harms to kids are on the other end of the scale.

If that's a "fact", where is the proof? What harms are there that can only be addressed with age verification and not in any other way?

> Dismissing the harms [...]

This is a strawman you've created.

> Defending privacy effectively means plugging the root cause it is being encroached.

Defending privacy means defending privacy, not submitting to nefarious interests and well-meaning but misled followers.

> This is being articulated as a defense of privacy when it originates from social media harms to kids.

Social media can be dangerous to kids, I don't see anyone disputing that. The dispute is around the solution to this issue.

How did you come to the conclusion that advocating for privacy is at odds with protecting users? I'd argue the opposite is true.

At that price point you could also go with a Tenstorrent Galaxy Blackhole, which starts at $110,000.

This assumes good faith, which doesn't match reality. It's about control, not protecting children.

Also age verification is still a problem in itself. Given your idea of a physical card, kids will find a way to use the card of their parents. Even if the card couldn't be misused by others - you give platforms the knowledge of whom is a minor, which means they can be targeted better.

Putting timing belts in oil was quite a bad idea from them though.

I've had great success with OpenCode Go and DeepSeek v4 Flash for Terraform code refactorings and extensions. It's cheap enough to pay it yourself ($5 first month, $10 afterwards). Ideally you provide the model a feedback loop (e. g. passing tests) so it can safely iterate.

I'd love to too, but I guess Crescent Island with 480 GB will cost something like $10-12k or even more.

Every now and then there are some people who try to innovate in this space. Example: The guys from corsairpower (https://corsairpower.com/) who put a marine engine in a Cessna 172. However, it seems like they get stuck because of small market size, regulations and incumbents who don't want the status quo to change.

One of the most interesting features of sodium batteries is that they still perform good in cold temperatures.

So does Opencode Go ($10/mo: https://opencode.ai/go) for DeepSeek v4 Flash and MiMo 2.5.

Having proof is not always enough. I had a bad experience with a shady used car salesman and my review was removed by them. I appealed, nothing happened. I deleted the review and put up a new concise one with proof. It wasn't published. The appeal was eventually successful but my new review still not published. I appealed via arbitration, which was decided in my favor but the review is still not published, as their decision is not legally binding. So Google rather pays hundreds of Euros in arbitration fees than publish my honest review. In the arbitration process they said that because I deleted my first review there is nothing they could do, which to me is nonsense. Overall the Google Maps review situation is very frustrating. At least they now show how many reviews have been removed in the past year for defamation for every Google Maps listing.

I'm speaking of third-party providers. They just host those open models themselves on their hardware.
