Apparently not, or Trump would have done it earlier, too.
There were investigations into just what reclassification would mean for other regulations, laws and treaties. These were begun during the Biden administration and are now being finished. If you just say "weed's schedule III now", without any other modifications to policy, you'll have confusion over just what that means to a bunch of different federal, state, and local agencies.
Also, you don't want a President just doing things with the stroke of a pen. Actually, that's our biggest problem right now, letting an autocrat piss all over separation of powers as a treat.
No, it requires more than a stroke of the pen, and the stroke of the pen that was required happened in 2024. It's been DEA foot-dragging ever since, which is what Trump's executive order last year addressed.
Biden didn't want to reclassify it because there's really no point in reclassifying. It's still illegal to possess for recreational use and requires a controlled substance prescription from a doctor.
It would take a law to remove it from the control substances scheduling, no president can do that. Which is also why Trump didn't do it. (It's now schedule 3 instead of schedule 1)
Common russian disinformation talking point. I'd rather have elected bodies representive of the people within the states to decide rules for the country, not the equivalent of a post-it note with a possible 4yr expiration date to shove through your own agenda and trample over the will of the people. Fixing the system is correct, using inappropriate measures to take shortcuts for short term wins to fool voters on progress is a fools errand. Biden took multiple steps in his terms to correct this, no need to frame it intentionally dishonestly.
If I'm not mistaken, proton didn't give anything to the FBI, they provided what was required by law to the Swiss government who then gave it to the FBI. It's a small distinction but it matters.
After reading the reddit comments, it looks like a primary problem is that the author doesn't (didn't?) understand how to benchmark it correctly. Like comparing the time to mmap() a file with the time to actually read the same file. Not at all the same thing.
I mean, its open source so people can create benchmark and independently verify if the AI was wrong and then have the claims be passed to the author.
I haven't read the reddit thread or anything but If the author coded it by hand or is passionate about this project, he will probably understand what we are talking about.
But I don't believe its such a big deal to have a benchmark be written by AI though? no?

Thank you for volunteering. I look forward to your results.

Sure can you wait a few weeks tho? I know nothing about benchmarking so gonna learn it first and I have a few tests to prepare for irl.
I do feel like someone else more passionate about the project should try to pick the benchmarking though.
I don't mind benchmarking it but I only know tools like hyper for benchmarks & I have played with my fair share of zip archives and their random access retrieval but I feel like even that would depend from source to source.
There are some experienced people in here who are really cool at what they do, I just wanted to say that if someone's interested and already has the Domain Specific knowledge to benchmark & they enjoy it in the first place, this having AI benchmark shouldn't be much of a problem in comparison.
Why would someone spend their time checking someone else's AI slop when that person couldn't even be bothered to write the basic checks that prove their project was worthwhile?
Yeah, just following up to my grandparent comment to say "wow. Holy shit. It is how it looks." I'm not sure why I was surprised; maybe I'm an optimist, or as I suggested in my first comment, a bit naive.
In my defense, I don't think I'm stupid; I just don't want to believe so many people in power are cartoonishly evil, so I tend to look for explanations that don't require it. I think my internal sense of the world wants there to be a distinction between, say, average cryptoscammer evil buffoonery and the people in positions where at least ostensibly they try to present as a good guy while trying to keep their evildoings secret. This story gives me some sort of cognitive dissonance, and while reflecting on that fact, I get a bit sad. This world is bonkers.
