Feels like there ought to be a term… it’s kind of a mix between “vicious circle”, “feedback loop”, and “echo chamber”.

Pretty much just now, they rebranded to Legcord

The 8th amendment has a clause that disallows “excessive bail”. In Stack v. Boyle, the Supreme Court found this to mean “that a defendant’s bail cannot be set higher than an amount that is reasonably likely to ensure the defendant’s presence at the trial.” So it follows that IN THEORY, bail is SUPPOSED to be set at an amount that is consistent with the defendant’s financial resources (including, it would also follow, increasing the amount for more wealthy people to ensure that it has the same proportionate effect on the defendant’s decision-making process).

Of course, that rule is just a bunch of meaningless words if nobody enforces it… and guess what, the main way to enforce this is by bringing a suit against the government alleging that they violated the rule. So IN PRACTICE (speculation warning here, I’m just some guy), I would imagine that they just set bail schedules at a level where anyone who can afford to pay won’t be able to win an “excessive bail” lawsuit, and anyone who can’t afford to pay it will also probably not be able to afford the cost of that lawsuit.

And something tells me that we aren’t likely to see a wealthy person suing the government for not setting bail high enough for them.

The term is Heisenbug

Their main site – not generated by the LLM – has buttons for “Try le Chat” and “Build on la Platforme” even though I’ve got the British flag selected for language.

That’s because “le Chat” and “la Plateforme” are their language-neutral marketing names for their products.

Sort of like how “GM” is still the name of the car company in like France even though it stands for “General Motors” which is an English term.

Attempts to prevent this phenomenon involve using what is called the “wait calculation” to predict how long to wait to launch an interstellar journey.

There are now 15 standards

No, there is and always has been just the one standard text editor.

you cant say it doesnt do exactly what you want.

As someone (a different guy than whom you’re replying to) who has primarily used Linux-based systems in personal settings for about 15 years or so, I can and will say that.

For the most part, Linux-based systems tend to do exactly what you tell them to do. Whether or not this is exactly what you want, however, is a slightly different point.
