Most of the top contributors are @microsoft.com so I would say it's a bit more than just "in the loop".

I'm responding to myself, after reading the USA copyright report of January 2025 (!IANAL!): https://www.copyright.gov/ai/Copyright-and-Artificial-Intell... -- * lots of opinions of many different parties * quote:

Has the situation changed on AI code legally speaking? Am I now assured that the copyright is mine if the code is generated by AI? Worldwide? (or at least North America-EU wide)? Do projects still risk becoming public domain if they are all

I don't know if something similar was feared, but I would like to remind people of what happened in 2020 with China and ARM. You don't get into the China market without losing control.

I have vague memories of OSX kqueue not supporting all the usecases that FreeBSD kqueue does from many years ago. Have they reached feature parity?

Sure, Evil Microsoft. But Apple is the one that normalized this. ...Like the developer account for mobile ...Like "sideloading" And this is why this things should have been fought much harder from the beginning. These companies ar

Really nice! > Power via DC jack ...Can I urge the devs to go to USB-C? I know this will complicate power delivery, but wasn't this a requirement for many devices in EU? This is one of those projects that half of developers would wa

Wonderful! An AGPL-like license without the enmity that Stallman and GPL have. IANAL, but I skimmed it and I see: * a patent grant * no extra clauses * static/dynamic linking seems fine with compatible licenses (edit: unclear to me if

> oes that mean we will see a return of the 'desktop applications'...? No. It's still required by law, which means that your desktop application will require some interaction with your smartphone.

It's just a test to understand how much they can get away with. When Russia went into turkey airspace it took something like half a minute before they were shot down. They never touched that airspace again. We don't even make a fu

Ah, to be young and new here. TSMC (taiwan) is the only company that has reached the latest and greatest chips tech. Apple gets their chips from Taiwan only. AMD. Intel. Everyone. Taiwan does not let TSMC export the latest tech, exactly bec

More shortsighted than crazy, imho. EU tried that with Russia, then we were dependent on oil/gas, and somehow the dictatorial regime fscked us on Ukraine, and now all of us are wasting so much more time and money. Everybody already kno

AFAIK git already uses multiple languages, github says its 50% C, 38% shell, 4% perl, then 4% TCL python 1% So "another language" here probably does not weigh as much, especially considering perl/TCL are the weirder one there

Some people appreciate leaving the pc open for light tasks even at night, and wasting too much power doing nothing is... well, wasteful. Imagine a home server that has the GPU for AI or multimedia stuff. The same architecture will also be u

I am not sure people understand the implications of this. First, it's not just nuclear, it's also Natural gas. Second, lots of nations have incentives for "clean" energy. And now magically, all those incentives apply to

This is kinda paranoid speech. GrapheneOS and Tor remain two of the best projects out there for privacy. I'd love to hear of other open alternatives, if any. ..."I don't trust google hardware, but I trust hardware from a dict

Legal shield? So once again people have to do manual legal work for something that can be taken for granted in any (L)GPL* software. We should start counting the times a permissive-licensed software needs this kind of protection, and then w

Does the opposite movement exist? Like "No Tips". Pay your employees, pay your taxes. No nonsense on dividing tips between people that I did not interact with, minimum tipping, or with automated machines. Tipping also means that i

I was under the impression that the iPhone had dedicated hw to render the screen while in idle/locked or something like that, in order to avoid waking the main cores. I wonder if it had enough capabilities to run the extra passes neede

So many people paraphrasing Stallman and GPL, and so few realizing that without legal enforcement these problems will keep happening over and over again. Yet there is more BSD and MIT code than ever. Android is full of open source stuff. GP

I see virtually nobody pointing out that apple is consistently using fab nodes that are more advanced than intel/AMD. Rule of the thumb is roughly 15% advantage to distribute between power and performance there. Catching up while remai

I don't know how anything works at sea. Assume I have the money to go on a trip, am I supposed to do background checks on people and technology by myself? From this report I gather that either the sea industry is completely unregulated

Underestimate your enemy at your own peril, I guess. Recognizing that China is much stronger than 10y ago does not mean supporting it. Recognizing that the advantage the USA has is getting thinner does not mean liking it.
