the bigger issue is that it’s being used in a GPL3 project which kind of isn’t allowed

I followed the links and I think the original argument being referenced has been twisted around a bit game-of-telephone style, GPL prohibiting inclusion of LLM generated code isn't what it's claiming, it's more that they think AI trained on GPL code violates it when it happens to reproduce it exactly:

it is readily apparent that GitHub Copilot is capable of returning, verbatim, already extant code (although it does attempt to synthesise novel code based on its training data). This immediately raises the issue, what happens when that code (such as the previous example) is licensed under a copyleft license such as the GPL or AGPL? How is the matter of copyright in this instance resolved?

It might also be the case that the GPL prohibits LLM generated code somehow, I don't actually know, just want to point out that no one has made an argument for that.

Mythologized history to serve their racist worldview:

Right, ancient Greece and Rome were actually quite diverse and the concept of “whiteness” didn’t have much meaning thousands of years ago. Race, as we know it, is a fairly recent category. But the far-right relies on this construct of Western civilization, which for them means white civilization and culture. So they craft a narrative that begins with Greece and Rome and then continues into the medieval period up through the emergence of modern Europe.

The reason I'm thinking of it is I recently read this lemmy thread. The article itself is probably AI and not that convincing but I think people are making some good points about the pressures imposed by expense of housing and how those affect the desirability and difficulty of having children.

Of course a prerequisite for that to matter is that not having children is more of a real choice than it is for people with no resources in a state of poverty. But it isn't necessarily the case that the difficulty of raising children decreases with country-wide affluence, because wealth inequality is a thing, required resources (like housing space) might become more expensive relative to income despite overall increase in income, and other factors like an increasingly atomized career focused society where community can't be relied on as much to help raise children and the expectations placed on parents are higher, maybe requiring high daycare expenses.

So bringing capable workers in means they pay into taxes that support the aging and school-age population, and never had to have their school-age years paid for. They’re a productive member with half the cost over their lifetime.

I agree in principle with the logic here, but if those capable workers are being placed in competition with a population that is financially struggling, and those taxes are not being used to give those people more breathing room, that productivity isn't helping and is being employed on the wrong side of a class struggle.

I'm not sure what you mean, in this case the definition of public would be anyone who can see the state of the market (everyone), and so can see when insider trading visibly moves the price. The idea being that doing the insider trading unavoidably leaks the information in this way, they can't hide it unless they can manage to actually prevent all insiders from substantially trading on their inside knowledge.

I don't think immigration is bad, but if the "problem" of fertility below replacement is caused by the other problem of people who might otherwise want kids not being able to have them because of economic constraints, focusing on solving the first problem by importing competitive and ambitious skilled professionals seems at least kind of questionable.

All of the source links have

at the end, pretty sure the article itself is just a LLM bullshitting, especially with how vague it is and never directly cites anything.

That definitely makes it worse

I wonder if the new app signature verification stuff will end up being roped into this to actually effectively prevent mobile users from circumventing ID checks

Supposedly it's linking to advice Redditors already gave, which would probably have already turned up if you were doing a non-AI search.

An argument I've heard for allowing this is, at least it means the public will have more reliable advance information, since insiders are incentivized to bet on what they know will happen in order to take everyone else's money, which effectively leaks the info and happens before that information gets into the news.

Simethicone is a miracle drug for making this happen

 

While alternative app stores operate independently and are required by EU law, Apple is still in a position to exert some control. This became apparent a few weeks ago, when iTorrent users suddenly ran into trouble when installing the app.

Thought this was an interesting story, since it's pretty analagous to the recent Android situation, with third party app stores being enabled to some extent, but the company retaining ultimate censorship power.

 

The Block BEARD bill broadly applies to service providers as defined in section 512(k)(1)(A) of the DMCA. This is a broad definition that applies to residential ISPs, but also to search engines, social media platforms, and DNS resolvers.

Service providers with fewer than 50,000 subscribers are explicitly excluded

So I was reading this post and decided to make the tool described, as a userscript (I credit ChatGPT with doing most of the work, which went pretty quickly). To use it, install a compatible userscript browser extension such as https://violentmonkey.github.io/ , then press install on the linked page. Reddit comments should now have a 'copy-context' button that will put the comment chain in your clipboard. I made it for old.reddit so probably won't work with the redesign. Another limitation is that it will only work to copy what is on the current page, so if the comment chain is too deep it's not going to get all of it.

Any feedback is welcome. Also if someone who can read javascript wants to give it a once-over and confirm for people that it isn't malicious that would be cool too.
