Google is invested in Anthropic

A reason to use feature flag third party services is for the analytics and insights into the user behaviour. Such services cost a lot but might be worth it if you don't have the resources to build such an infrastructure.

Yep lived in Japan 3 years - their use of over-packaging and single use plastics is insane.

You can’t win the lottery without buying it first but still a lottery is a lottery…

Which game you play is certainly a factor. If you like composing original music that may be a game worth playing even if the odds are no better than an actual lottery.

From what I understand, Huawei got "ahead" in 5G by stealing Nortel's IP and running it into ground by the way of spycraft.

That they copied IP, no doubt, but "running it into ground by the way of spycraft" I would like some sources?

Nortel is a Canadian company.

Does this mean it belongs to America's 5G portfolio?

and csco too.

You can't get ahead by copying, you can only get to the same level. So how did they get ahead?

Leeching off other competitors.

Again, you cannot be the market leader by following others.

You can if you skip steps and/or invest more when starting from the same point, like say, if your corporations are backed by the state.

Not really. You still have to do that last step, the one that gets you ahead, yourself. Thats the step we're talking about.

There is a very real issue here imho, for the Anglo-sphere (the EU seems much better at this, full disclosure, im a brit but i think the us and uk are the ssme in this). We don't invest and increasingly we're not competitive. Cisco dropped the ball, Huawei picked it up. Maybe every previous step was stolen, but that's the step that have given Huawei their success. They have an advantage because no one else is making a comparable product.

As long as we just complain and blindly insist the chinese are cheating, we won't address the actual issues that are really holding us back.

The chinese are investing in education? Maybe we should. The chinese force their companies to take a view past the next quarter profit report? Maybe we should. If whatever their advantage is, its not stealing (not anymore at least) and until we address it, we will be whining and they will be winning.

I am seeing this more and more e.g. educative, repl.it, etc. In a nutshell, I am curious as to what the tech stack is for creating this type of stuff.

I mean Web app is probably not interesting but they are using Next.js and Fastapi: https://twitter.com/KennethCassel/status/1392845888888913923...

For the remote code execution, they are spawning docker containers it seems like:

Guess it works with having a base image and just rebuilding it with the code that should be run. Code is passed via an api call from frontend to backend. This should make sure not the whole environment is rebuilt again because of the docker cache but only the code which has been submitted.

How the docker thing actually works is just my guess btw.

I hate to break it to them but docker is not security.

I only see three courses. vim.so is not even on the list. Am I missing something?

vim.so is what I built prior to Slip. It wasn't built on Slip

>You could even drive to moscow, china, korea and japan

Japan eh?

Reminds me of the good ol' days when google would tell me to kayak across the Pacific Ocean

This brings back so many memories from around 17 years ago when I would try to do a dual install of arch linux with windows XP using the GRUB bootloader. Fun times! Can't believe it's been so long!

This is awesome. Wish Canada could do something even remotely effective like this to catch the Chinese money launderers and drug suppliers here.
