the anti-immigration right in Denmark was successful because they were data-driven and could show that unskilled non-Western immigration was a net negative even by 3rd generation.

the American and German far-right by contrast seem to be the polar opposite of data-driven. No the lazy 'IQ by country' maps don't count.

I'm not a mathematician but I think we underestimate how useful pure mathematics can be to tell whether we are approaching AGI.

Can the mathematicians here try ask it to invent new novel math related to [Insert your field of specialization] and see if it comes up with something new and useful?

Try lowering the temperature, use SymPy etc.

Elon Musk's takeover of X is already a good example of what happens with unlimited free speech and unlimited reach.

Neo-nazis and white nationalists went from their 3-4 replies per thread forums, 4chan posts, and Telegram channels, to now regularly reaching millions of people and getting tens of thousands of likes.

As a Danish person I remember how American media in the 2010s and early 2020s used to shame Denmark for being very right-wing on immigration. The average US immigration politics thread on X is worse than anything I have ever seen in Danish political discussions.

One Swedish-Kurdish man in Iran who is working for the Iranian government is using Telegram/Signal and Monero to intentionally cause carnage in the streets of Sweden and has been attempting to expand to Denmark.

But instead of going directly after this man our tech inept governments are trying to do the mathematically impossible.

Use the AGPL for server code, the GPL for tools and the LGPL for libraries.

If we are doing it for ideological reasons why not go all in and use AGPLv3 for everything, including libraries? It also has the added benefit that big corporations will not use your code.

What is the actual process of identifying hotspots caused suboptimal compiler generated assembly?

Would it ever make sense to write handwritten compiler intermediate representation like LLVM IR instead of architecture-specific assembly?

It's funny. Nobody complains that there is a lack of free multi-platform desktop GUI profiling tools for Go, Python, Ruby, Elixir etc. Somehow we just accept those languages are only for web services, web apps, and command-line utilities.

What is the problem with Microsoft keeping "nice to have" desktop GUI stuff for their own proprietary ecosystem when everything else has open sourced? Including the primitives needed for the community to build their own GUI and developer tooling stuff, just like JetBrains did with Rider.

How is that going to help?

Germany has an even lower threshold for criticism of Israel and organized Judaism than the US.

Mainland Europe (excluding Germany) is generally way more pro-Palestinian than the US. However that doesn't extend to our institutions. Case in point: Dutch riot police brutally beating up University of Amsterdam students for setting up UCLA/Columbia-style tent blockades.

If you're an American academic or student you can come to Europe and continue both your work and pro-Palestinian activism within the Overton window of mainstream European consensus on the two-state solution. Anything that is more radical than that might get you in the same level of trouble or worse than the US.

Basically Europe is a non-solution for pro-Palestinian American academics and students.

OpenAI, please stop translating your articles into the most sterile and dry Danish I have ever read. English is fine.
