You own the code, you decide where you want to host it. If anyone knows, I'm looking for copyrighted code to deploy my own cloned service to make some money, DM.


Translation ?


I think it would make more sense in a pure AI-topic, but the fact that you can scrape copyrighted content and create services (AI companies) is the original idea behind my comment. I'm not sure to what extent CoPilot was trained on private repositories or other possibly copyrighted code. But if it was e.g, I'm supporting their (Zig's) cause.


Definitely internet. When I’m not online, I goof out infinitely.


Who is here to talk about the real underlying causes instead of stating facts? One other commenter also wrote how bad it is that over a million ppl feel like this.


I believe this less as of now. Sure you can put in the hours, but you can see the difference between ppl that are fast learners and not.

™Do what you are" is a much better ordination. Some people are better wired for sports, maths or arts etc. Far too many are shoehorned into careers not suitable for them intrinsically - but that's also how the economy works. Hey, maybe you're talking about hobbies though?

I think also that what you're getting inner motivation from is also the most hidden from you, therefore it becomes necessary to explore and try to align with as many things as you can. If you're lucky then you do it at an early age.


It's so obvious. Someone born without legs will not be able to run, no matter how much he or she imagines being a runner. When we can't see the thing that obviously explains such a discrepancy, we call it "talent." In many cases, a large part of that is cognitive, and it's not fashionable to think of cognitive abilities as innate, or worse, genetic. Hence the wishful thinking that you're born tabula rasa and can good at anything for which there's no obvious physical hindrance.

It's also not clear that what the "baseline" is for many accomplishments. Perhaps 80% of the population has some musical talent, perhaps 20%. I don't rate the improvisation on his blog highly. Noodling without development, a weak left hand, and questionable rhythm.


It's so obvious, this invisible thing? Seems to me the wishful thinking could go either way here, and you could build a whole imaginary castle of hidden innate abilities, since they're hidden.


> could go either way

Why do innate differences stop at the brain-blood barrier? Isn't it quite reasonable to assume that physical, biological differences exist everywhere in the body, since birth? A priori there's no reason for assuming otherwise.

There's enough evidence that intelligence is partially heritedary. It's also obvious that there are differences between people who dedicate themselves to their hobbies and profession, well beyond the 10k hours.

If it could the other way, why isn't there an endless stream of Einsteins and Newtons? Are all physicists lazy?

That "castle of hidden abilities" exists, BTW, even though it's usually focussed on short-comings. Our genes are quite hidden, and determine a great deal of our capabilities and lack thereof.


Well, maybe it's quite a small castle. You don't know.


Emphasis on "leaked". Or is this just a convenient word to use? How do these things leak? Thanks ! :)


The way to learn a language is to immerse yourself at location.


Would be interesting to read something about engineering degrees too. Are some degrees less worth pursuing? Is it sensible to spend 5 years if you're gonna become a PPT wizard ( sure good pay probably).


Dude there are crimes everywhere. Here we're fighting chat control and other surveillance mechanisms being implemented. I don't think there's a "neutral ground" to be found - just allies and enemies.


...and use LaTeX

Thanks for sharing this <3


Why would you use LaTeX when there is Typst?



This should be pinned. Thank for this! Really really a big thank you!
