Nobody is going to accept that.
If Putin doesn’t accept the proposal, the UK and France would send troops to Ukraine.
The UK and France especially aren’t going to accept that, there is nothing stopping them from sending troops now, but they don’t.
I’ll happily accept if im wrong as i am not a lawyer and certainly not a Canadian one, ive tried to find enforcement based on it but i can’t find clear cases on it, this is the legislation:
No person shall manufacture, import, distribute, lease, offer for sale or sell any radio apparatus, interference-causing equipment or radio-sensitive equipment for which a technical acceptance certificate is required under this Act, otherwise than in accordance with such a certificate.
Radiocommunication Act 4(2)
The question becomes does “offer for sale or sell any radio apparatus” also apply to companies outside Canada?
Still, i can imagine a company is not keen on selling products they know are illegal in the destination country, but the seller (outside canada) being liable for the radio act is maybe wrong then.
On the consumer protection part it does seem correct that the foreign seller is on the hook, atleast for provincial law.
This Act applies in respect of all consumer transactions if the consumer or the person engaging in the transaction with the consumer is located in Ontario when the transaction takes place.
Ontario Consumer Protection Act, 2002, s. 2(1)
Again assuming “all” then includes foreign transactions.
Yes cause understanding software is important even if you use AI.
And even if you want to go full vibe code and never look at anything yourself the AI does need documentation, compare the performance of an agent on a large project with and without an AGENTS.md, the difference is massive. Without the agent usually does figure it out, but it spends a ton of tokens searching.
The Fairphone (Gen. 6) and Fairphone (Gen. 6+) are software-compatible, so you can install the Nura image on either model.

Again i don’t know for sure but from my understanding to answer this question and the one you asked ironblossom.
If a company accepts payment and ships to a fowarding service knowing it is going to a certain country then that is legally the same as if they shipped it themselves.
If their product is not certified to be sold in that country the seller now can face heavy fines.
If their product is defective and causes damage and they don’t have insurance for that country then the seller can be on the hook for heavy payouts.
To prevent this the seller must block the sale.
May i interest you in Linux support instead?
Take this with a grain of salt as i am not an expert but when i looked into it if you sell knowing it will go to a forwarding service to a specific country legally it then counts as selling to that country and the seller is on the hook for all the regulations so they have to block it.

I would recommend using a classifier model instead of a text generation one.
As for the way to do it a simple program that connects to you mailbox via imap and calls the vllm or whatever api you are using and then moves it to spam could work?
The article talks about the contra sanctions that forbid companies from following trough with the US sanctions.
What isn’t mentioned is that the parliament has already voted in favor for this https://www.tweedekamer.nl/kamerstukken/detail?id=2026Z08115&did=2026D18200
But knowing the gov they probably won’t do it.
Sometimes I ask what the point of motions in parliament are then.
I said the same in another comment already.
As with everything, same with governments shoveling millions if not billions into microslop products it should be open. Open source/weight AI is very capable nowadays so it shouldn’t be an issue.
I don’t expect the government to be able to go into fully training their own foundational model, but a few racks in a government building somewhere can run open source/weight AI for a fraction of the cost. And is fully sovereign too instead of sending it to some provider.
Public money shouldn’t go to private corporations.
While true, i think it would be harder for something like the AfD to take over the EU central government then the german national government.
Why would a more integrated EU allow fascists to take over?
The fascists are anti EU and currently seem to be rapidly gaining power in national governments.
No idea if the fins are based enough for this but i would hope they run open source AI.
Public money shouldn’t go to private corporations.
Assuming the income stays the same
Corporations spend less = shareholders get richer
Governments spend less = other services get funded more, national deficit gets lower, taxes get reduced. Depending on what the government decides to spend the savings on.
How is it functionally the same?
If we accept that employees spend the same amount of time as without AI but now the error rate is reduced then yes. I don’t think that is the case but I don’t have the numbers so who knows.
I agree, but the article is about the Finnish government, unless there is something I don’t know they weren’t making any profit to begin with.
I’m making up numbers because I don’t have the actual numbers and 2x is easy for the example, insert whatever numbers you like.
The issue with that statement is that putting double the employees on a project doesn’t always improve its quality.
If we go with the numbers we have been going with and a employee with AI is twice as productive then adding AI effectively doubles the time available. This only leads to a quality increase if work was being cut short. If each employee already got the required time necessary to handle a application with full quality then you haven’t increased quality but the capacity. If the now increased capacity is far above normal volume it is a waste to have so much excess capacity.
No? Where have I excluded that option? If for normal volumes 100 employees are need to process. And with AI only 50 are needed, then it’s still cost saving?
Call it wistful thinking but I still believe donations are the way forward.
But it requires a bit of a shift in both willingness and ease.
Currently donations are also distributed pretty unfair, they go mostly to the user facing side, while crucial packages remain forgotten.
I would almost suggest some kind of system where you could set aside a certain amount of money, and it would donate automatically to all your installed packages, with some kind of weighting system I suppose.
