At this point the most direct and highest impact way of making phones last longer is forcing Qualcomm to support their chipsets for more than 2 years.

It's not just a propaganda move. It is meant to provide 2 things: - Legally allow Russia according to it's own laws to send conscripts to the claimed territories. This is necessary due to the extreme man power shortage. - Legally

We have confirmed proof that Putin sent people originally assigned to those missile installations you mentioned to instead be cannon fodder in Ukraine. He is leaving plenty of places less protected (probably woth the exception of Moscow). A

3. Understand that even if you do all of the above, there will still be people you will be unable to reach. 3a. Methods that would reach those people would again not apply to the first group or to others.

Also, as coroborated by Verdi, creative output is negatively impacted by copyright. Why write (compose) new stuff if money is flowing in because of old stuff.

People have written books and will continue to do so regardless of any other factors.

Since CC licenses are so rare in software I never analized how the By, Nc and Sa clauses interact with SaaS. I'll have a read, but even if Sa copyleft does not apply (might be more like GPL than AGPL), By and Nc should probably apply.

However, the environmental constraints change and the amount of scientific knowledge also changes(and hopefully improves) over time. Therefore the heuristics turned into rule book will inevitably become harmful eventually. Also keep in mind

Arguably, we can still do almost all you have listed. But the desire is missing.

The only situation where i see an AI generating this type of comments to be useful would be deciphering an obfuscated C challenge program. Or maybe Perl. But otherwise, I also want the Why not the What!

I say the first step now (if it wasn't done already) should be to send seeds to the seed bank in Svalbard and other seed banks (distributed resilience) allong with documentation about how it was cultivated.

Apparently Powertoys Run does all of this correctly. It's also made by MS and its a QuickSilver/Alfred/KRunnrr/etc. style launcer. This makes it even more inexcusable for the default Windows behaviour to be stupid.
