Yes, it was mostly third world country based contractors being incredibly unhelpful, very similar to Microsoft.
People do it with LLMs all the time now. Just tell machine to rewrite it in another language to wash away the license.
It was embarrassing to watch various Apple related websites like Mac Rumors and Apple Insider pretending not patching this earlier was fine.
Curious how this YouTube channel went from producing slop like reaction videos to producing ports nobody asked for which describes much of the retro scene these days.
Given the state of Asahi right now I don’t think Apple would be interested. It’s enough for some enthusiasts willing to sacrifice some things but by the time Asahi approaches function and performance parity that hardware will be commercially irrelevant. What does this even achieve in the age of license laundering with LLMs?
AI bubble has shown that if you don’t have billions of dollars for lawyers, your IP will be copied and compressed into an LLM and you won’t be able to do anything about it, regardless of license. But at least Apple won’t be able to profit from Asahi team work and BSDs won’t be able to use drivers from Asahi. So much winning.
If you did it through Settings -> Account -> Subscriptions you knew you’d be safe from nagging.
This doesn’t really fit into a programming community, or a retro computing one. And I really wanted to share because this skit / documentary is surprisingly tasteful.
I was in Czechoslovakia once, I wonder if it’s still there. Hopefully nothing bad happened to it.
VP doesn’t mean anything in US financial institutions because it’s a minimum level where someone’s legally allowed to make certain decisions but in companies that manufacture things at scale it’s usually a meaningful indicator of a high ranking position. AMD VPs don’t make it to their leadership webpage but SVPs do.
If a convertible note is redeemed in stock, where does the stock come from? Air?
What does the stock price have to do with their $900b commitments to buy products and services from other companies? My creditors don’t care how well I’m doing if I signed contracts. Revenue growth is slowing so how are they going to cover it while bringing loss after loss and their best idea for business is to lose money even faster?
The price of the apple matters because Anthropic is making claims how much they’re worth, based on how well they’re business is doing. If apples are overvalued then everyone is overstating that. And that means the business isn’t doing all that well. Hence, can’t have cake and it eat too.
There’s a reason derivative instrument valuation goes into PnL. It’s not even like counting nominal value of an option contract without physical delivery that some use to exaggerate value of such contracts, these are vanilla convertibles which can explode in their face in multiple ways.
Accountant echo chamber is my idea of fun times when it comes to responsible finance.
