Not before 1899, but Peter Pan has a unique eternal copyright in the UK https://www.plagiarismtoday.com/2015/10/21/peter-pan-and-the...

Yes, and France has a greater than life +70 for some works.

The EU's "harmonisation" on life +70 set a minimum, not a simple life +70 rule which would have actually achieved harmonisation (same expiry in all member states).


Correct. It's abusive to apply probabilistic AI models to real human individuals and penalize them for things they haven't even done yet with no recourse.

I hope you will remember this the next time your employer asks you to build an AI moderation, credit evaluation, or anti-fraud system that will harm much larger numbers of innocent people far than one mean website.


Some might say a list of "30" that in fact includes thousands of people every year is itself a bit fishy.

Because you will soon be working for it unless you learn to make it work for you.

It's fucking insane that we all have to pay rent every month to an AI company just to keep doing our jobs.

there is certainly a future where this isn't the case. Learning how to use AI and use it in your workflows will likely for sure be a part of any serious dev's future, but being beholden to a data center does not seem to reflect reality. Consider all the 5m-8m models and how powerful they are today compared to what the best models did 2 years ago. If you want to stay absolute bleeding edge model wise, sure you'll be stuck at a data center for some time...

Why isn't this just kinda seen as a repeat of the original birth of computers? Consider the IBM 350 (3.5mb) rented in the 50s for thousands per month. Now I have a drawer filled with SD cards that go up to 128gb that i cant even give away.


you literally don't have to. you can literally just keep doing your job the way that you always have.

I probably won't have a job for much longer if I do that, unfortunately

I don't think that is true.

To be clear I think AI coding agents are massively over hyped and turn code bases into unmaintainable buggy messes... I hate them.

But "leadership" everywhere has AI psychosis and at my company I expect I'd eventually be let go if I refused to use it.


hahaha fuck that. speak for yourself man.

I don't know why but all your comments are getting hidden/flagged/killed for some reason.

> any company ingesting that much cash needs to justify its capacity to survive.

What, why? There are tons of low-margin capex-intensive business out there.

I think AI will end up like being like hosting. All the models will converge to being pretty-decent and the companies will have to compete on efficiency since they are selling a generic commodity.

You can already see Anthropic fears this scenario since they try so hard to make people use their first-party tools rather than plugging Claude in as a generic part of a third-party stack.

LLM hosting is the next VPS.


Fair to say that motorcyclists are risk-on people.

They are going to start selling solar panels at Lidl, a German-owned grocery store chain https://www.independent.co.uk/extras/indybest/house-garden/l...

I saw a video from the UK government with a guy walking down the aisle of a Lidl talking about it! I quickly went to Lidl.es to look as these 800w balcony solar setups are legal here in Spain. Unfortunately they don’t sell the here! Maybe once the UK does it they’ll start.

It's been the case for several years in Lidl Germany and about a year in France

This reads like it was written by AI. I don't understand how it provides any real security if the "guardrails" against prompt injection are just a system prompt telling the dumber model "don't do this"

I had the same thought as well. The firewall is just assuming a dumb model can't be tricked

Adding a mobile version, MS Exchange integration, supporting OAuth2 login, refreshing the UI periodically because otherwise everyone whines about how "dated" it looks.
