I really like this...I've been trying to come up with a similar system, not necessarily for just gh, but for comms in general. And with groups so e.g. someone from my group can trust someone in the group of a someone I trust. And from there it would be neat to add voting...so someone requires a number of votes before they can be trusted.


yes and also no ;) Think of stirling engines as driven by "heat differentials" as opposed to "heat." At first when you fire up the GPU, it's hotter than everythign else and can start driving a stirling...but eventually everything heats up to the same temp and it stops moving. To get it moving again, requires a heat differential, so part of it would need to radiate, which is blatantly difficult in a vacuum(1), such as space.

In case it's not clear: Little-St. James Wannabe Invitee, Nazi-Saluter, Musk's full of it again, but to recognize it requires being halfway through college physics to understand it, so all the elites will be glazed over thinking they're onto the next big thing. grift, grift, grift, grift.

(1) a giant flipping vacuum.



When someone can’t manage first-order thermodynamics or basic human boundaries, it’s reasonable to downgrade their credibility across domains.

re: thermodynamics....you can not feasibly dissipate GPU/LLM/Data center-level heat in space. You'd need radiators the size of football fields and you'd be highly susceptible to cosmic debris.

Even worse, the license requirements (gpl->mit) will be less beneficial to the community than the rust replacements.


Rust has no specific license requirements on code written in it. People choose whatever license they prefer.


True, but you might want to look into the licenses people are actually choosing for Rust versions of coreutils/uutils and who's promoting them.


Sure, those authors chose that license because they did not really particularly care for the politics of licenses and chose the most common one in the Rust ecosystem, which is MIT/Apache 2.

If folks want more Rust projects under licenses they prefer, they should start those projects.


I released my most recent Rust project under the GPLv3. The first issue was someone asking me to relicense it under MIT. I politely declined.

I bring this up because no matter what you choose, someone will wish it was otherwise.


> If folks want more Rust projects under licenses they prefer, they should start those projects.

100% true, but also hides a powerful fact: Our choices aren't limited to doing it ourselves. Listening to others and discussing how to do things as a group is the essence of community seeking long-term stability abd fairness. It'a how we got to the special place we are now.

Not everyone can or should start their own open source project. Maybe theyre already doing another one. Maybe they don't know how to code. The viewpoint of others/users/customers is valid and should not only be listened to but asked for.


The 2nd amendment is different from the Castle doctrine. You can have the 1st one without the 2nd one.

A militia to deter occupiers is different from protecting one's own house. And cases like this go beyond the Castle doctrine. This made had no legit fear for his life. Wiggling keys in a door and jiggling door handle don't equal legit fear. You have to at least identify a threat. This shooter was irresponsible and wrecked it for many other responsible people. Government will use this to weaken individuals' 2A rights.


Yeah it pays to have a huge library of routines...e.g. multiplication for every size combo of number sizes, signedness. Also sorts...everything, but if you scour youll find many :)

Id like to point out submitter, binning, has no comments and no favorites. Only a string of sexually conservative submissions with very low karma.

I submit that this user is not a hacker, nor has no intention of being part of the hacker community. They are clearly just using this resource as an outlet for their propaganda and it's not resonating with this community.


Even the headline is illogical. Even if the writer's premise is correct, and "porn" (which porn? It's not one homogenous mass) is getting more extreme, why is it "degrading society?" The real subtext is "porn is bad."
