What is the point of this comment?

To paraphrase you: "no one should release new open source software libraries because it is not enterprise ready on day one with thousands of deployments and every feature imaginable".

If you don't want to use it, don't use it


What is the point of this comment?

To paraphrase you: “if you have objective reasons preventing you from adopting the code then keep them to yourself because I concluded they’re bad vibes”.


Do you think that's a good thing?

I don't know. Government funds have a unique way of being often wrong, so this may be the kiss of death. But it is a sign that the EU is helping Mistral.

Imagine the fund were distributing to several teams, but let's say Z.ai and Deepseek were european and among them. What percentage would be allocated to Mistral in that case? OK, the other two aren't, but in the same vein, should the EU fund be saving its powder until such a project shows up?

European money invested in a European company ought to be a good thing, don’t you think?

It's possible to be a waste of European money that could be better used elsewhere, though. I think the same about LeCun's company sucking up the little funding here.

Do you think it's not?

> Secondly because it validates insidious populist views that the EU institution is useless and incompetent at a fundamental level.

- resentment that bad policy damages the institution’s reputation - annoyed it proves people i hate like correct


The last series was absolutely appalling. Let it die


The season three issues are addressed in the article. I’m looking forward to what they have in mind for season 4.


> LLM generated code is not copyrightable, so even if they do "steal" it - I don't think there's legal grounds to do anything about it.

> It can't be stolen. You don't really own it.

At least in the UK computer generated code has been copyright-able for decades [1]

> (3)In the case of a literary, dramatic, musical or artistic work which is computer-generated, the author shall be taken to be the person by whom the arrangements necessary for the creation of the work are undertaken.

And the ToS of the major/minor AI providers as far as i can tell have no opinion on what you do with the code in terms of ownership.

Yea i got about 900k - they have since added a "Gift usage" section under settings/ My Quota

The kimi.com interface also seems to indicate they can be used there (the badge to say its using gift quota is there for me).

However under Usage Details/Gift Quota it seems to indicate that it is consuming it via kimi code and sure enough my usage is reflected there from kimi cli. Odd and a tad vague


Wait until you find out what the EU want/have asked the GAM trio of big tech corps to do to your phone and private messaging platforms. (Coincidentally they suddenly don't think so big an anti competition problem exists anymore).


Are you referring to Chat Control 2.0 which has repeatedly failed to pass the Parliament and is illegal to implement today?

Or to the requirement for RCS for which certificates are only issued to trusted parties?


Incredibly in one comment you've managed to do all of

1. It's not happening

2. It's a good thing

3. Peddle false information

Impressive


That is indeed how University learning used to work, for about 1000 years


It's *supposed* to work.

In reality you get lectures from individuals that became professors because they are great at politics/research but not at teaching (very different skill).

If you even get them and not their 25 year old assistants.

And this is apparently super common even in ivy league universities as Youtube lessons have shown me over and over.


This is why it's so awesome watching David Malan teach Harvard CS50 (free YouTube videos). His presence, knowledge and overall enthusiasm for the topic are outstanding. If more of my college courses had that level, I'd have been far more engaged. When I look back, I realize that I paid a TON of money to have some professors basically "phone it in", yet expect me to basically teach myself their subject of expertise. "Build a compiler". Yes, I can (and did) learn that from a book. I imagine if I had someone truly engaging the room during those sessions, I'd have come away with FAR more appreciation. That could have even led to a different career path.


> And this is apparently super common even in ivy league universities as Youtube lessons have shown me over and over.

I think you have the “even” backwards. Elite research first universities have this problem more than teaching-first, low research output programs.


Sussman and Abelson are great at teaching.


I'm sure they are, just against the generalization that in class is always strictly necessary as not everyone is Sussman.


All that, and it’s still better than just reading the book on your own. :P

Be thankful when you get the 25 year old PhD students & post-docs. They care more about teaching and remember learning the material recently and are more willing to talk & help you.


I've attended courses from some of the best researchers on the planet (like Graetzel at EPFL) and you did yourself a favor if you skipped the confused ramblings and just studied on the books.

Plenty of courses taught by brilliant individuals that were just bad at teaching or borderline not prepared.

Some courses (like biochemistry) were effectively useless as de facto you had to memorize 600 pages of Lehninger's book anyway. There's nothing to understand in the Krebs cycle.

I also vividly remember exams like advanced algebra were the professor genuinely did nothing but rewrite canned content on a board and could not really shed light on anything, you were on your own.


Far right? It's run by a literal marxist communist.


People change. Mossulini was a socialist in his youth.


And then he became a Socialist with power. Seems to me he remained a Socialist.


Yes. Until the 1WW.


What does he or she want to do with immigrants?


Lol. Not all communists are Marxists on immigration


What did Marx write about immigration?


What a grown up, healthy attitude


musk's public image is well known, and the statement is reflecting a useful heuristic / business sense; some customers really would use claude less knowing that it's buddies with musk now. Your own immaturity leaks through. I would say that the one weakness for OP is that people okay with using claude but not okay with grok might be a different size overlap than expected (either more people fine with both, or more people disjoint, or it just doesn't factor in for people).
