Is there any initiative to port it to rust (or preferably golang) and remove weird tracking/telemetry?

I guess golang is better since we need goroutines that will basically wait for i/o and api calls.

You can do it.

People are weird, I for one started to use em dash more often — look at me!

You never know what’s going on in someone else’s Claude Max plan =D

Interesting that both you and nxtfari made essentially the same comment within an hour of each other, though yours is slightly modified

[dashzebra → orthogonal_cube]

Yeah, right? Are we just... talking with bots?

That's a collision of 64 letters of entropy within 20 mins.

Searching the term on DDG return this very page as the only result, I can confirm it's not a common term/meme.

We're living on a dead Internet are we?

[aglhz0752 → nirui]

Maybe~ :)

[didacusc → dashzebra]

well there is a context to this of people doing ridiculous projects just because they can through LLMs, of which Claude excels at for code-writing, so it makes sense that two users would have a similar reaction to this. also copying jokes from other people is as old as time (just check youtube comments from 2008)

[bakugo → dashzebra]

It's pretty obvious that Anthropic has a bot army that advertises Claude in basically every post, I thought most people would've noticed by now.

[IshKebab → bakugo]

I don't think it's obvious. A likelier explanation is just that a lot of people are using Claude (especially HN types). Do you have any actual evidence?

[bakugo → IshKebab]

You can explain away any obvious astroturfing campaign with "wow, so many people love this product and feel the need to bring it up all the time in unrelated contexts!" if you want to.

If you think two people making the exact same comment about "Claude Max" (not even just Claude, specifically bringing up the $200 subscription) on an unrelated post is organic, I don't know what to tell you.

Just another glitch in the matrix. Guess whst chances were that this happend by pure coincidence. Dead Internet Theory is real.

Right now EU is tricked by their own leading research institutes. Sad to see all these invented metrics and based-on-nothing statistics that lead only to “gib monay” at the end of the presentation.

On: Georgian wine culture dates back, uninterrupted, approximately 8k years

[gregman1]

As long as France is in EU no other country on earth can import good wine. Cheap - probably, heavily controlled and in many cases partially owned by French or in some rare cases other European companies (like in Chilean or Argentinian cases). This market is rather hardcore and kinda monopolized in EU. Go ask anyone who knows wine market or works at a Georgian (or any ex-Soviet restaurant). Georgian wine enjoyed this kind of monopoly in USSR so no surprise here. During that time wine from Moldova wine was an affordable great quality underdog.

[tpm → gregman1]

I don't really understand your point here. Sure France is overly protective about their wine, like every country tries to protect their flagship industry. And inside the EU there are many other wine-producing countries who want to protect their producers too.

But I can buy Georgian wine in a few shops and restaurants here, even those made in kvevri. I can buy small-batch Serbian (Serbia is not in the EU either) orange wine too. It's hard to import into the EU? I'm sure it is, the rules are very strict, but it's doable.

[goobatrooba → gregman1]

That makes no sense at all. There are plenty of other wine countries already in the EU. While France keeps strong on regional designations and standards, there is no one blocking wine imports except where they violate quality standards (think Californian wines full of pesticides not allowed in the EU). Every big French supermarket has Georgian wines alongside Portuguese, Croatian, ...

[Shorel → gregman1]

Well, here in BG it is hard to find French wine. There's plenty of Italian, Spanish, Chilean and Argentinian wine.

And also a healthy percent of local Bulgarian wine.

[usrnm → gregman1]

What are you talking about, there are multiple wine-producing regions in the EU, and there is absolutely no problem finding Spanish, Italian or even German wine in any EU country. Even Georgian wines can be found, if you know what to look for

[baud147258 → usrnm]

At least in France it's quite complicated to find wine from elsewhere unless you go to wine retailers.

[IAmBroom → baud147258]

Have you considered the outside chance that might be due to French nationalistic pride and wine snobbery, instead of legal chicanery?

[croisillon → baud147258]

it's true but basically they don't sell them because people wouldn't buy them

[penetrarthur → gregman1]

There are a lot of Georgian wines in EU. Especially the recently popular orange wines(white wine made like red wine).

[inatreecrown2 → penetrarthur]

I recently tried an orange wine from a very good maker in Austria, with excellent whites and reds. I don't like the orange wine though, not my taste. I wonder why it is so popular.

[tpm → inatreecrown2]

Every orange wine is different, so one is not representative.

For example I like the funky, wild ones.

But besides the taste, one thing people tend to like about those wines, although it's not reserved to orange wines, is the natural manufacturing process that for example also often means less or even no added sulfites. For example my wife can't drink wine with a lots of sulfites, she gets stuffed nose immediately and a headache later. While I'm not that sensitive, even I can feel it's easier to process for my body.

[penetrarthur → tpm]

I thought that's called "hangover" and you just need to drink more when that happens.

[penetrarthur → inatreecrown2]

I like it because it differs a lot from whites and reds and allows to get a different perspective on how wine can taste. While the difference within whites and within reds can be huge, the orange wine tastes like something completely alien, yet it can be very tasty.

I noticed that some lemmy instances and channels are managed in the same way Facebook and Reddit groups are - by corporations, using many bot accounts that fake user behavior/anctivity and make echo chamber environment.

So if corpo approach was compromised why not migrate the plethora of experience and knowledge to another platform to continue brainwashing disguised as marketing strategy and facilitation.
