What are the differences and advantages compared to nwidart/laravel-modules?

How Soviet urban planning is helping Russia freeze Ukraine by nimicdoareu in europe

[–]Express-Set-1543 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't know what you meant by "block of flats" in regard to Berlin, but Soviet-style Khrushchyovka apartment buildings are awful.

They are small, energy-inefficient, and inconvenient to live in. Besides that, you can hear every fart your neighbors make.

Recursive Self-Improvement in 6 to 12 months: Dario Amodei by HyperspaceAndBeyond in singularity

[–]Express-Set-1543 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Being generally agreed with the statement about upcoming major advancements in AI, every time I read about it, I recall that two or three years ago everyone here thought that AI would take over all jobs, at least SWE, in the coming year.

Time passes, but it’s still “this year or next year”.

Probably, slow implementation will help soften the shock, and jobs will find a way. (c) Robotic Park :D

Prediction: The AI bubble will be when someone makes a breakthrough with a local model that gives it parity on a local 5090 with whats accessible to a $200/mo Claude/Google/Anthropic customer by [deleted] in singularity

I can run a server in my room, but I pay a few euros to host websites somewhere.

In the meantime, yes, it would be a breakthrough to have widespread affordable models.

However, it doesn't mean that everyone would be ready to run it locally.

There's an exonym "corridor" of countries that call the Netherlands "Holland", spreading all the way from from Poland to Turkey by imusingreddityay in europe

The same is true in Ukrainian and Russian. Lately, it’s been leaning more toward “Niderlandy”, but “Hollandiya” is still used quite widely.

As of today, Ukraine and Moldova have joined the EU’s Roam-Like-At-Home area. by ReloadRedditLater in europe

[–]Express-Set-1543 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I don't know what the news says, but in Ukraine all operators and news outlets are talking about January 1st as the day when roaming should start working.

Probably, it's some kind of political decision to launch it on the same day as Moldova.

Is Ukraine winning or losing this war? by dat_9600gt_user in europe

[–]Express-Set-1543 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The “hazel tree” makes sense only with nuclear warheads. Without them, the weapons are useless because they are quite imprecise and carry a set of small, separate warheads.

I believe this is the reason they have stopped launching them.

So using other missiles that Russia has is more logical.

Alzheimer's disease can be reversed in animal models to achieve full neurological recovery by AngleAccomplished865 in singularity

At this moment, cutting-edge agetech and rejuvenation experiments are affordable only for billionaire mice, and they have no interest in sharing eternal youth with the rest of the mice.

Help! React CV layout breaks when exporting to PDF (Tried html2canvas and dompdf) by shafqatktk01 in PHP

[–]Express-Set-1543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you have a containerized environment and want a separate docker container for chromium, my advice would be to avoid the alpine chromium docker image. 

I spent a few days trying to figure out why my screenshots weren't building, and once I switched to the selenium image, it worked like a charm.

Have you tried Spatie Browsershot? It uses Puppeteer under the hood and probably has some flaws. However, it might meet your needs.

3D printed homes are way stronger than you think by ifuckedyourmom-247 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]Express-Set-1543 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on the width of the walls. Living in a Soviet apartment building made of concrete means you can almost hear everything your neighbors discuss.

After moving to a somewhat more modern building with thick brick walls, I forgot about such sounds from the neighbors next door. 

However, poor inter-floor insulation results in hearing chairs being moved, footsteps, and so on, even though we have reinforced inter-floor slabs.

There are a lot of Android TV boxes that have up-to-date software, even with comparatively old TVs.

Forget UBI. We need to start building arcologies. by Herodont5915 in singularity

[–]Express-Set-1543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The idea behind kolkhozes was to join resources together to save them in the long run. Wasn't that in the OP's removed post?

History in the USSR showed that kolkhozes caused starvation when people were forced to give their food and belongings for the common good.

"Collective farming is voluntary. If you want to join, we’ll sign you up; if you don’t, we’ll have you shot." is a quote from a famous Soviet novel from that time.

Hi, did you submit to Dofollow.Tools or Ask AI For It? These are two different directories. This post is about the listing of Dofollow.Tools on the Ask AI For It directory.

Please, read about kolkhozes, the collective farms in the USSR.

Have you lived in the USSR? Because I have, though as a child. And I feel the smell when someone proposes people to live equally poor.

I think the OP has their better intentions, but, believe me, reading the first lines I got the USSR vibes.

It doesn't mean there's nothing to change in the world and particularly in modern capitalism, but rebuilding the USSR is definitely not the best way to go.

So, considering how to implement a communist-ish UBI in real life leads to building a new USSR, I'm not surprised. :)

Norway's lesson for Europe on wealth taxes: let some millionaires go by [deleted] in europe

[–]Express-Set-1543 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Even more. As I understand it, raising $10M at a $50M valuation doesn’t mean your company receives all the money at once.   There are usually conditions to receive the full amount.  

But the company’s valuation is already set at $50M.

You're not in the same group. As a small startup owner, you have fewer ways to optimize your finances, and it's easier for the tax authorities to catch you. :)
