This will open the gates of hell, allowing lawyers to harass free software developers. Not because of the actual content of those proposed laws, because there is supposed to be an exemption for free software – but because there is a great tradition here in germany, where lawyers just make false claims and try to extort money from you. Can you safely ignore them? Should you seek legal council immediately? You never know. It’s best to avoid becoming a target in the first place.
Besides, the current wording is just an EU thing. It will have to be transformed into german law (and french law and spanish law …), which means our legislative bodies can screw up things big time. It’s quite possible that they won’t include that exemption or include it in a very vague and ambiguous way.
I’m really angry right now and hopefully I’ll think differently tomorrow.

Há uma greve de todos os Profissionais de Educação agendada para 15 de novembro de 2024, porque se reenvidicam coisas como a necessidade de mais profissionais da educação.
O que faz o Governo? Anuncia a Inteligência Artificial Portuguesa, um LLM que vai ser usada para "dar a cada aluno um tutor educativo de inteligência artificial".

We should standardise numerical notations, at least the nations using the Arabic numerals. Spain also uses the period as the thousands separator. For legibility sake, commas and periods make sense, like €3,500.25, for example. That’s three thousand five hundred Euros, and 25 Euro cents. But this should also work: €3500.25.
It makes little sense that €334.90 gets interpreted as €33490 (or €33,490). 🤯
Also that credit card 'encryption' will likely land that company in very hot water, no doubt far away from PCI DSS requirements.
334.90 as 33490,00. 😬 This is germany, so it wants a comma, not a dot …

An LPOD in front of its box. LPOD stands for Luta-POD and it is the portable music player the "Homens da Luta" album was released in. Proudly, it announces that it comes with 250Mb of free space.

>LLMs don't have an understanding of anything. They can only regurgitate derivations of what they've been trained on and can't apply that to something new in the same ways that humans or even other animals can. The models are just so large that the illusion is impressive.
So true.
