No banner is required. No interaction at all in fact.

Companies can comply with the law by following the old and standard DNT header. It's transparent to the user, no pop up of any kind.

They chose not to.

They are the ones you should be angry at, not the EU.


Law making bodies are responsible for all consequences of their legislation whether they are intentional or not. They are the ones in charge so the buck stops with them. Make better laws.


With this line of logic, you give absolution to anything immoral that is actually legal, saying the state should have done better.


That sounds like somebody familiar with compilers and interpreters, applying the same logic to law. That reasoning is flawed.


I thought we agreed not to talk about Bruno.


Yeah, those fire, pots and crops where so useless compared to those. And the wheel? Na, it's not that important.


Those items could very well have been invented multiple times, because the how-to information was lost again and again.


What's the difference with "absolute enable right click and copy"?

And like MS they will just pay a few billions in PR and Foss to make a come back in 10 years and all will be forgiven.

They will get away with this, we let them. They have no incentive to be better.


Microsoft already notified EC that they stop their browser shenanigans and will ship windows without their browser pre-installed to save on endless lawyering game they can’t win.


Systems that are used as cache such as redis evict keys with some randomness to avoid scanning all of them. They also evict keys you read that expired without you having to check for that. And they don't store both a key and an id.

Given the value of redis for caching and outside of caching, bur the ease and low cost of setting it up, I would say postgres as a cache seems niche.


Postgres doesn't need to scan them all because it has indexes. It also has a number of random sampling strategies available.

It is niche, but it's a viable option for a lot of use cases if you need to limit the number of service dependencies.


We need more trials in this space, building is still not fun after decades of it.

Personally, I think doit (https://www.bitecode.dev/p/doit-the-goodest-python-task-runn...) is still the winner in the python space, but there is a lot of it that could be improved.


Author here. I hadn't heard of Doit, but it does look similar to Hancho. Hancho pushes much harder on the minimalism side, however.

I think I may steal Doit's "actions can be arrays of commands" feature, as that would be trivial to add to Hancho and potentially useful.


I have used pantsbuild in the past. Had a pleasant experience with it.


Given there have is a thriving open source AI scene, not sure how it would stand.


Yeah but has that community grown because of OpenAI, or in spite of it.

IMO the only real involvement OpenAI has had in that movement is suddenly getting REAL hand-wringy Infront of Congress about how dangerous AI is the moment OpenAI no longer held the only set of keys to the kingdom.


Depending of the context which I lack, a bloom filter could be an alternative to hashes there.


Money from the state does come from the money printer these days thought.


“Can”, not “does”. Don’t be disingenuous.
