  • that’s just how they are made.

    Can confirm, even the little training compiler we made at Uni for a subset of Java (Javali) had a backend and frontend.

    I can’t imagine trying to spit out machine code while parsing the input without an intermediary AST stage. It was complicated enough with the proper split.








  • I found something more informative over here:

    With the new s. 73 a, a proposal is made to introduce a ban on deepfakes of natural persons’ personal, physical characteristics. Personal, physical characteristics are to be understood as the traits and features that define a person and are unique to the individual, such as appearance, voice, movements, etc.

    What is special about the proposed provision is that, unlike other provisions of the Copyright Act, it does not require the existence of a copyright-protected “work” or “performance”, but the protection rather covers all natural persons. This applies regardless of whether they are artists or creators in the legal sense.

    Thus, the protection comprises the unique characteristics of individuals, which are closely linked to one’s person. For this reason, it is also proposed that consent to public disclosure must be given individually, and the area cannot be covered by a collective licence agreement.

    The ban only applies to the public disclosure of deepfakes, meaning that there is nothing preventing deepfakes from being made available within the private sphere – such as at a private party or in relation to the right of reproduction.



  • They don’t deserve all this media attention just because they got a lucky birth

    While I agree with you in principle, this guy in particular didn’t have a lucky birth. His parents were not aristocrats, his father is a felon and didn’t stick around, his mother raised him alone at first. His grandparents on the mothers side are divorced and his grandpa is also a felon.

    However when he was four and a half his mother married into the royal house. So he would have had a privileged upbringing from then on. So he’s still super fucked up, to piss it into the wind with violent crime.
