Yes. India also has the problem of the carbon (soot) emissions from all the fields they burn every year. This regulation will be as effective at fixing the air quality as turning off the taps in the bathroom would have be in preventing the sinking of the Titanic.

Actually it implies that this is even a new "problem". Look at the forbes top 100 richest people. How many Rockafellers, DuPonts, Crockers, Morgans, etc. are still billionaires? Answer: practically none. For instance the best numbers I am aware of are for the DuPont family. The DuPont family wealth is approximately $18 billion, but due to inheritance and dispersion over 100 years worth of DuPonts, that wealth is now spread over more than 3500 individuals.
Wealth is always created in a concentrated manner, but over generations, it disperses anti-logarithmically back to the mean. We actually have laws that protect this and ensure a rich robber-barron of any given generation cannot exert inter-generational control of their wealth. Incidentally, that's what the failure so-called "late-stage" capitalism describes. In the past it was robber-barons. It's not new, it's working as designed.
The only place where wealth is concentrated, and remains so is a government.

~15-20 years ago Miguel de Icaza ranting about how terrible Open Source is? RMS even called him a traitor.
Why? Miguel constantly pushed Mono and lambasted everyone who disagreed with him or even refused to use C#. When that didnâ(TM)t work he ran off to the safety of Microsoft.

You, and people like you are unbelievably dangerous. When you constantly use the word NAZI to pejoratively describe everything you don't like because you cannot form a cogent and coherent argument, you devalue the word NAZI and the real horrible things that real NAZIs did. If literally everyone is a NAZI then when real NAZIs do real NAZI things, how will anyone tell the difference? Learn to have an argument or stay off the internet.

You are embarrassing.

That was the point of his comment. These claims are obviously untrue and constitute libel. I would also suggest they have a negligence claim as well. IANAL but these theories are why I suggested that they should litigate these scumbags into the ground.

1. If this did 1/1000th of what they say, irresponsibly disclosing it during a talk at a conference is reprehensible.
2. After looking at it, it doesn't do 1/1000th of what they say, so they're either liars, or in marketing. Either way they should be used as ballast on the next Starship launch.
3. If this is this amazing, where's the CVE?
4. Who's independently confirmed this?
5. Who cares?
6. I hope Expressif responds with an IBM of lawyers. These people disgust me.

Yes, an IBM is a quantity of lawyers roughly equating to the number of entire lawyers that will fit in a courtroom. 1 billion devices? Sounds like $1,000,000,000 worth of lawsuit these scumbags should be paying out.

I just realized I might want to invest in one of those buttons... just in case.

I'm sorry but all I can think about are those life alert commercials where the woman falls and hits the button.
"Help me, I've fallen and I can't get up!"

I'm old :(

Post-doc research assistants are very very cheap. A $20,000 AI had better be able to do the work of ~4 research assistants with the same level of supervision.

What if, and hear me out, you start by showing the third episode so no one knows what's going on. In fact, start with a bar fight where it isn't even clear who the main characters are. Then show the rest of the first half of the season, then the pilot so that we get the backstory.
NO, THATS NOT IT! Then cancel it immediately! You have to cancel the entire show at that point even though people now understand what's going on.

It's not vague at all. They're doubling down because they want the license... In theory any code you edit on github, any video you upload to youtube you've given a perpetual license to Mozilla to do ANYTHING IT WANTS WITH IT. They say it's not for AI, but they wouldn't collect it if they weren't using it for something that benefits them.

Obligatory IANAL, but I did just finish working with my attorneys on our new privacy policy, so this is fresh in mind.

"Mozilla explained it used specific legal terms -- "nonexclusive," "royalty-free," and "worldwide" -- because Firefox is free, available globally, and allows users to maintain control of their own data."

This, children, is what we call lying. It is where you say a thing that isn't true.

nonexclusive = use and sharing of data is not limited to Mozilla
royalty-free = the user who owns/generates the data doesn't get paid (The intellectual property owner)
worldwide = we can send your data anywhere and into any regulatory regime and you can't do anything about it.

I don't know or care if Mozilla is using this for AI, but technically speaking, if you use Firefox to upload content you created to YouTube, Mozilla has a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to do anything they want to with your intellectual property.

Keep in mind Mozilla is a CORPORATION. They may or may not do any given thing, but they retain these rights and licenses meaning that if EvilCorp buys Mozilla at the impending bankruptcy, your personal licenses to everything you do or transmit in Mozilla goes with it.

You can't just dump money on a problem and hope it gets better. The EU's regulatory system is absolutely opposed to technology companies. This money will simply disappear just like the CHIPS act money has.

What is holding the UK back is quite simply the insane size of their government, the insane quantity of their regulations, and the pain of dealing with their "devolved" government at every level. In the UK businesses are entirely subservient to their government, especially local councils.

If the UK ever wants to grow again they must embark upon the second phase of what Brexit was supposed to allow them to do, as this is the path they chose. The path of aggressively deregulation of their economic system, and the implementation of a true free market economy.
