What if nobody implemented it?

Then Microsoft and Apple among others would be fined per day until they implemented it; or perhaps even being held in contempt of court if the government sued them and won up to and including jail time for executives; or given the current regime, being designated a supply chain risk.

Even if the companies eventually prevail in court, most wouldn't want the hassle or being on the bad side of Orange Man.

I know. My point is that all the site should guarantee to the advertiser is transmission of the ad. What happens to it once it reaches my browser should be irrelevant.

There are sites I like and do not block ads because I want them to be around, and in the end they either need to paywall or run ads to stay in business.

But the company whose ad it is has already paid to be shown on the site, hasn't it? Why should they care whether I choose to block ads via my browser? I'm never going to click on any as anyway.

Something like this needs density. If there's not enough people using it, then the per use cost will be far too much to make it economically viable. That makes cities much more attractive to startups like this. Of course there you have airspace issues with large buildings, so the true sweet spot may be relatively dense but very high income suburbs. But it sure as heck won't be rural.

For open source, merely copying the code is not copyright infringement. That is the point of open source. However, if you violate the terms of the license, then your right to copy vanishes and THEN it's copyright infringement.

If an LLM regurgitates your code verbatim (or really close so it could reasonably be considered a derivative work) and it's uncredited, then it's copyright infringement and also plagiarism.

Still, how could the US Government stop using Windows? They'd have to switch many tens of thousands of computers to Linux? The supply-chain list cuts both ways.

What if Microsoft refused to stop using Anthropic's products? What's Hegseth going to do? Declare Microsoft a supply chain risk? Stop the US government from using Microsoft products?

FWIW, its IMDB rating is currently 7.6. A threshold that seems to work well for me is that anything under 7.0 isn't worth watching. YMMV.

"Game Of Tits" we call it 'round here

You can do that with github and many of the others as well. My employer has a private github.

Except it really isn't. The stuff from 2 years ago is miles ahead from the stuff 5 years ago. The stuff from 1 years ago is yards ahead of 1 year ago. The stuff from 6 months ago is nearly indistinguishable from the stuff from a year ago. Diminishing returns is hitting hard and rapidly. Many experts think that LLMs are closing in on their technical limitations, regardless of how much extra compute its given. It will need entirely new techniques to actually become much more than it is now. Which may happen, but doesn't appear to be on the horizon.

A study you can't even directly link to? Yeah, I call bullshit.

And my personal experience is it's at least a 50% slow down. I have yet to ever have it do anything not completely trivial that wasn't badly insecure and broken, and when using them to provide static analysis the false positive rate is around 90%.

No, those who aren't willing are actually following the science. Every measurement so far, every actual study has shown AI code generation is 20% or more slower for senior engineers. Even scaleai, a company founded and run by Meta's AI chief, shows the same in their data (https://scale.com/leaderboard/rli). Possibly it will someday get there, but it sure as hell isn't ready yet.

You can already to that. Just select Feeds from the menu under the 3 horizontal lines.

Also, Android is an open source OS. You can always run it on a modified OS that pretends to have secure storage but logs all data sent to it.
