Make builds in docker by mounting volumes and have your sources, intermediate files, caches, etc. in these volume mounts. Building a bunch of intermediate or incremental data IN the container every time you execute a new partial compile is insanity.
It's very satisfying just compile an application with a super esoteric tool chain in docker vs the nightmares of setting it up locally (and keeping it working over time).
I had a project that had to build for macos, linux and windows on armv7, armv8 and x64 (and there were some talks about mips too). Just setting up all the stuff required to compile for all these target archs was a nightmare.
We used a single huge docker image with all the dependencies we needed to cross compile to all architectures. The image was around 1GB, it did its job but it was super slow on CI to pull it.
At the very least, they can provide a full log of all interactions and recording in an audit log. Have that verified with researchers conducting their own analysis on dial home activity and I think we'll be significantly closer to a good answer here about generalized mass capture of customer sensitive data. This still wouldn't be enough if you're worried about targetted spying, because we can't know when bad actors flip your device into spy aggressively mode unless you're auditing the device while targetted).
To be somewhat charitable to GP, if their climate for research and development leads to actually objectively better outcomes then yes I'd say it's fair to make the claims that a nation's work in any given sector are showing better returns given the circumstances and inputs in question. Now there are a lot of generally hard to observe facets to the inputs that went to these technological advances produced by China (publically), but you can't ignore their public and OSS contributions because it's inconvenient to a person's capitalist agenda.
57 out of 64 major tech areas are being led by the Chinese (and Chinese tech companies, as another HN user somehow can't seem to separate).
I don't care what economic or governmental system they use. But given what's being shown on XiaoHongShu, they're doing awesome. Or worse yet financial ideation and exploitation are eating through every fiber of the US.
Have I thought about emigrating? Absolutely. The USA is slowing down, and already behind. And current policies are going to put us solidly as a 3rd world nation.
I may not be able to move there in a reasonable time schedule, but I will definitely use FLOSS contributions from there, and work with people there and everywhere to grow FLOSStech.
Google gives attribution and maybe provenance, while AI gives you smoke and mirrors. I guess we'll decide if copyright has any legs left to stand on in the modern world, or if it falls as collateral. It's so sad that commercial piracy has hit such an incredible tipping point that even I feel bad for creative people and their bleak economically dead future ahead.
I want to be optimistic, but I suspect what we'll end up with is a legal interpretation which allows LLMs to steal content from creators without the cool side benefit of being permitted to steal content ourselves. It will become legal for an LLM to turn your blog into a part of its library, but you won't be able to apply the same logic to read out-of-print books.
Those are not even remotely close to 30%. If the cut was based on real expenses for services provided you'd see it change over time. That it's been stuck ack 30% for so long shows that there is only one reason for such a high cut: because they can get away with it.
The windows kernel is old. The Linux kernel is old. These are both old code bases, but they're not "legacy" at least in terms of how many would phrase the term. A codebase let to rot is legacy. A codebase that is constantly improving itself to be in the best state so that it can adjust to modern programming standards is just a good piece of software.
That all said, it's all subjective, blah blah the end.
I'm still waiting for file upload API v2. V1 was only made EOL like what, 9 months ago.. Its totally fine to gut your company when all you need is maintenance mode.
The rationale is to damage Chinese commercial interests. Otherwise, the billions of IOT devices that dial back to Chinese manufacturers would be way higher up the list than an AI tool that has shown five minutes of adoption.
Exactly. Talk about closing the barn door after the horse ran out, started his own family, watched his foals grow up, sent them off to horse college, and watched them all settle down and start their own families in new barns that don't even have doors. Nonsensical stunts like this make me wonder if Hawley and company are also on the Chinese/Russian payroll and it's not just Trump/Musk. Is it too much to ask of my fellow Americans to pull up from your grievance politics before these people completely hand our country to China?
